Amy Winehouse's texts inspired new song – Jamie Cullum
Jamie Cullum told BBC Radio 5 Live about how old text messages from Amy Winehouse inspired a song on his new album.
Speaking to Nihal Arthanayake, he said: "I don’t think I was really that mature enough to understand what was happening to her at that point you know, the true levels of her addiction.”
Winehouse died at her home in 2011 at the age of 27.
