Amy Winehouse – Love Is a Losing Game Lyrics
For you I was a flame,
Love is a losing game
Five story fire as you came,
Love is losing game
One I wish I never played,
Oh, what a mess we made
And now the final frame,
Love is a losing game
Played out by the band,
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand,
Love is a losing hand
Self professed profound
Til’ the chips were down
Know you’re a gambling man
Love is a losing hand
Tho’ I battled blind,
Love is a fate resigned
Memories mar my mind,
Love it is a fate resigned
Over futile odds,
And laughed at by the Gods
And now the final frame,
Love is a losing game

Amy Winehouse – Love Is a Losing Game Review
The initial response to London songstress Amy Winehouse marked her as yet another in the batch of sultry 21st-century British neo-jazz divas. Although the tag may have been beneficial in terms of press coverage, it was misleading; unlike the inoffensive Katie Melua and Joss Stone, Winehouse had no fear of displaying the seamier side of her life. Her debut album–the aptly titled FRANK–was a gritty and streetwise collection of jazz-inflected pop, but it was the 2006 follow-up, BACK TO BLACK, that really set her apart. Displaying the marked influence of 1960s soul music, Phil Spector girl groups, and classic Motown, the album also boasted clever, sexually explicit lyrics and punchy pop arrangements, all pulled together by Winehouse’s superb vocal talent.
