Prince pays tribute to Amy Winehouse in Amsterdam

US singer Prince paid tribute to British soul singer Amy Winehouse during a surprise concert at the Melkweg concert hall in Amsterdam on Sunday.


Winehouse, who was 27, died at her home in London on Saturday night. Prince performed Winehouse’s ballad Love is a Losing Game during the two-hour Melkweg show.
Tickets for the performance went on sale just before 23.00 for €100 cash.
Prince, who plays the Ahoy in Rotterdam on Tuesday, should have performed in Oslo on Sunday but the concert was cancelled because of the island shooting and Oslo bomb in which at least 93 people died.
According to some media reports, he is planning another Melkweg concert on Monday night.
