In a just-released interview taped a few short months before Amy Winehouse's tragic death, the late singer appears to be happy, healthy and in good spirits as she opens up on her duet with music legend pal, Tony Bennett.

The Back to Black singer reveals she was really "excited" to sing the "beautifully written" song, "Body and Soul", with her longtime friend, and said they "blended together perfectly" while in the studio.

The clip also gives a sneak peek at the pair working together on the track, which will be released as a single on iTunes Sept. 14.

Tony Bennett's full "Duets II" album, featuring his cover with Winehouse, will be released Sept. 20.
