A haunting teaser trailer for the upcoming Amy Winehouse documentary features photos and footage of the late British soul singer as a child and young adult explaining why she wanted to be an artist, but didn't desire fame.
The Grammy Award-winner died of alcohol poisoning after years of substance abuse in 2011. She was 27.
"Singing has always been important to me, but I never thought: 'I'll end up a singer. I'll be a singer.' I just thought I'm lucky that it's something I can always do if I want to. I'm so lucky like that," her voice is heard saying in the video clip.
"I felt like I had nothing new that was coming out at the time that really represented me or the way I felt, so I just started writing," she explained. "I'm not a girl trying to be a star or trying to be anything other than a musician... I don't think I'm going to be at all famous. I don't think I could handle it. I would probably go mad."
