 Irritating repetitive drivel! January 16, 2008
In future tv shows that list irritating records of the past, this song will be sure to feature. At the moment we hear it everywhere and it is already a tired track. Once the hype has died people will look back on this track as being completely dire drivel.

 ...the Helen Shapiro revival starts now... October 24, 2006
3 out of 5 found this review helpful
After a platinum selling, Mercury Music Prize nominated debut, Amy Winehouse's record company must have been jonesing for a follow up. In which case the appropriate response appears to be ya boo sucks.
There's little of the debuts jazz leanings as Amy delves back into the girl groups of the sixties for this soul drenched little cracker. The hook will either grab you or repel you as it underpins the whole song. Never thought I'd still be here for the Helen Shapiro revival, but here it is!
 Supremely confident and soulful return October 5, 2006
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This has been get heavy rotation on Radio 2, and maybe other stations too, and well it should because it's quite terrific. A brazenly confident soulful swagger of a song that more than fulfils the promise Amy Winehouse showed with her debut album Frank.
You may have noticed I used the word soulful there and with very good reason for this song , more than any other I have heard elicits the ambience , gravitas, and sheer exuberance of classic sixties soul music. From the breezy but impeccable arrangement, to the backing horns, to the funny self aware lyrics "Rehab" is a song to be reckoned with. And of course the top hat is well and truly provided by Amy Warehouse's sultry smouldering vocals which prowl around the music like panthers circling a velvet antelope.
It would have very easy for Winehouse, after the success of Frank to flop snugly into the undemanding dinner party market occupied by Dido or Katie Melua but she has adroitly stepped away from the enjoyable jazz inflected strains of her early music for something altogether more assured, audacious and satisfying. If the rest of her forthcoming album ("Back To Black") is anywhere near as fine as "Rehab" that album of the year contest is officially over. At least in my house.
