Stevie Wonder 'wanted to duet with Amy Winehouse'

Stevie Wonder has revealed that he was thinking of recording a duet with Amy Winehouse before she died.

In an interview with The Guardian, the 'Isn't She Lovely' singer said that their collaboration would have been "amazing"



"I understand Amy came to my concert in England a couple of years ago," he said.

"I was thinking about us doing a duet - an old Marvin and Mary Wells song called 'Once Upon a Time'. It would have been amazing."

Wonder also said that had he managed to meet Winehouse, he would have tried to convince her to get help.

"Obviously I knew Michael [Jackson and] I knew Whitney [Houston], too," he added. "[The last few years have] been a heartbreak," he said, referring to both stars' deaths as a result of drug abuse.

When asked if he thought there was any point people trying to intervene in such situations, he replied: "There's always a point."
