I was SO not a fan, Curtis. I don't think I'd ever
listened to a single one of her songs, largely because
I couldn't get past her public image as Out Of Control 
Girl.

I was too late to see the YouTube link you posted (the
poster seems to have closed his/her account), but today
one of my Facebook friends posted a link that got me
over my aversion and forced me to listen to my first
Amy Winehouse song. It's the choice of song that did it.
This song is one of my "guilty favorites" from my own
teenage years. Written by Carole King and then-husband
Gerry Goffin for the Shirelles, I was such a lovesick
sap at 15 that I used to listen to it over and over.

The other Shirelles song I used to obsess on, this one
written by Burt Bacharach. To this day, I still love 
the cheezy Farfiza organ solo and the breathy vocals 
by Shirley:
