Amy Winehouse's father says he discovered previously unheard track by singer

Amy Winehouse's father says he discovered previously unheard track by singer, Not even her untimely death may keep Amy Winehouse off the charts.

The late crooner’s father revealed to London’s Daily Star that he stumbled on an previously unknown track recorded by his daughter before her death in July 2011.

Mitch Winehouse was in the midst of recording his own charity album when “the guy engineering it pressed the button on some old tapes in the studio and there was Amy singing this great song nobody had heard before,” he told the newspaper during a London art show in honor of what would have been Amy’s 30th birthday.

He did not indicate whether or not the track would eventually be released.

One album’s worth of previously unreleased Amy Winehouse songs, “Lionness: Hidden Treasures,” was released several months after the 27-year-old diva was found dead in her London apartment.

In life, Amy Winehouse had become famous as much for her battles with drug and alcohol as her soulful voice and meteoric music career, but her brother recently blamed a long-standing eating disorder for her demise.

"She would have died eventually, the way she was going, but what really killed her was the bulimia," Alex Winehouse told UK’s The Observer in June. "Had she not have had an eating disorder, she would have been physically stronger."
