The story behind the song "Valerie" is first and foremost the true story of Dave McCabe, lead singer of the Zutons, a rock band from Liverpool. The song is dedicated to Valerie Starr, Dave's girlfriend who he met during an American tour, and who is then to join him on English soil. The song's popularity skyrocketed after Amy Winehouse covered it for Mark Ronson's album "Version." The soulful rendition by Winehouse, with her signature raspy voice, brought a new dimension to the already catchy tune. In this podcast, we'll explore the origins of "Valerie," its rise to fame, and how Winehouse's cover cemented its place in music history.
