George Michael wanted Amy Winehouse collaboration

Former Wham! star George Michael was desperate to duet with Amy Winehouse before she died.

The Faith singer admits he was "so in awe" of Winehouse's talents and even wrote a track he hoped to record with the Back To Black hitmaker.

He tells Magic Radio, "There is one (track) I wrote, I was hoping to sing with Amy Winehouse. I was so in awe of her talent, bless her heart, I never got to offer it as a duet."

Winehouse died from alcohol poisoning last July.
