Amy Winehouse's final video

Today, September 14th, would have been Amy Winehouse's 28th birthday had she lived.

The British artist who died unexpectedly about two months ago had recorded a song and video with jazz icon Tony Bennett.

The video which featured both Winehouse and Bennett singing the song Body and Soul premiered at 6 a.m. today on MTV, VH1, MTV Hits, and mtvU. The video was repeatedly played all throughout the morning and is now available to be viewed on MTV.com.



The release of this final video coincided with the launch of the Amy Winehouse Foundation UK which aims to "support charities and organisations undertaking charitable activities in both the United Kingdom and abroad who help, support, or care for young people — especially but not exclusively those who are in need by reason of ill health, disability, fi financial disadvantage or addiction."

The foundation was set up following Winehouse's death and its goal is to benefit those who are battling drug and alcohol addiction.

Sales from the Body and Soul track will be the first major donations to the Foundation.
