Beyonce is covering “Back To Black” by Amy Winehouse. The song is from “The Great Gatsby” soundtrack and features Andre 3000.

I want to like it. I really do. It is good…but not as good as Florence And The Machine’s “Gatsby” song or Lana Del Rey’s contribution. Maybe knowing that Jay Z is producing the soundtrack and that Beyonce appears on it makes me critic it more than I should. Maybe it is because that Amy’s version is more powerful. It is a great tribute, but I take it as nothing more.

    I really like Andre3000, but what is he doing on this song?
    What a mess, is there still time to switch it with the original on the soundtrack.

    I love Amy and I like this cover because they changed it enough which makes it interesting. I’m glad she is being remembered, nice tribute

    ROFL … sometimes it really takes talent to fuck up a song. The whole first half of this track captures NONE of the essense of the original and while it marginally gets better when Beyonce finally comes in, by that time its too little too late.

    I’m not liking this at all they really messed up this amazing song. I love Amy’s version a lot better they should have just used Amy’s version for the soundtrack in my opinion

    Amy’s version has vibe, this version is lifeless.
