Winehouse, who has just returned from a vacation at Bryan Adams' Caribbean home, also believes her alcohol problem is more serious than her heroin use.

"Hillary, she's a hit-maker. When we got together, I had this guitar lick, she started to sing a melody over it, and we started writing this song. It seems to strike a chord with people who've heard it, because it is a sign of the times. You see the state of things, of how human beings treat each other. It's awful. I'm not just talking about war or poverty. I'm talking about treating each other with respect. I'm not trying to wave any kind of flag. It's not a political song … but it's not not a political song either."
