Amy Winehouse wins songwriting award

LONDON (AP) -May 22, 2008

The song won the Ivor Novello award for best song musically and lyrically at a ceremony in London on Thursday. Her father, Mitch Winehouse, accepted the award after the 24-year-old singer-songwriter arrived too late to collect it in person.

Her song "Rehab," also from the "Back to Black" album, won a Novello last year.

The awards are given out annually by Britain's songwriting community.
