Whilst cataloguing archive material in the lead up to the 20th Anniversary of Frank, previously unseen rushes from the original video shoot for “In My Bed” were discovered. This wonderful footage reveals a truly remarkable, supremely talented songwriter and singer who would become one of the greatest artists of our time. For the first time, Amy fans around the world will be able to celebrate the lyrics of “In My Bed” by experiencing the lyric videos translated to local languages French, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.
The double vinyl Picture Disc edition of Frank features the singles “Take The Box”, “Stronger Than Me”, “F**k Me Pumps” and “In My Bed,” and is housed in a gatefold sleeve. The picture disc artwork uses the original classic sleeve imagery on LP 1, while LP 2 features two beautiful images, taken by renowned photographer Valerie Phillips, from the original artwork photo session, shot in 2003.
There was also a strong streak of hip-hop and modern R&B throughout Frank, acknowledged in lyrical nods to Outsidaz and Erykah Badu. “In My Bed,” on which Amy chides a lover for getting emotional about sex, the bleak “Take The Box” and the icily unforgiving “What Is It About Men” are all worthy of the best of 00’s US soul.
The thirteen songs on Frank, announced the arrival of a peerless artist, a phenomenal writer and performer, and a true once in a generation talent and the images on this release show the young Amy at the beginning of her incredible musical journey.
