Amy Winehouse.  |
|
http://tinyurl.com/342o9f I've just been reading another article about Amy Winehouse (link above), she's apparently staggered round the stage slurring her speech and calling the audience mugs for buying tickets on the first night of her new big tour. It's sad she's obviously got serious drug and alcohol problems so quickly, and it's getting worse now her husband is in prison. She is a talented singer and is so different to everything else in the charts it would be so sad to see her stop performing for good, or worse die of an overdose. Is anyone else a fan of Amy Winehouse?

Unfortunately she tracked herself elsewhere and is not making a strong commitment to cleaning her act up. One thing I know for sure is no one can help her unless she decides to help herself.

2. derek_a (2667) | 10 months ago | Yes, I read that article too. It is such a shame when talented people seem to push the self-destruct button. It has happened through history unfortunately.

3. GnosticGoddess (3448) | 10 months ago | Nah - I don't care for her much. Though it's always sad to learn about someone who has drug and alcohol addictions. I hope she can get some good help soon. I didn't know that about her hubby either. Do you know why he's in prison?

nancyrowina (1710) | 9 months ago | Something to do with perverting the course of justice surrounding an assault I think. I've heard dodgy stories about him from people who have met them though he doesn't sound like a nice bloke.

GnosticGoddess (3448) | 9 months ago | Ahhh... I just wanted to let you know I'm taking a small hiatus from here for a bit. Still answering responses to my responses but I'm not checking out any new discussions for a bit.

4. deadraven999 (537) | 10 months ago | Hello there, nice topic.. Although I am not a big fan of Amy Winehouse, but I have to admit I like some of her works like 'Back to Black' and 'Tears Dry On Their Own' I just love these two songs despite i am not much into her music Genre which is kinda soul n' Jazz. I believe Amy has got a very charming and distiguishable voice, damn i just love it. She may have to do some little homework like she can't be with the same eye liner style and same haircut in each and every video but all in all, the woman is talented no doubt. Wish her a soon and big comeback. Thanx Nancy for such a lovely discussion.

nancyrowina (1710) | 10 months ago | I hope she sorts herself out I like the re-hab song too it was quite a daring song to make at the time but has become ironic now too, what with all her falling over drunk on stage and asking for drinks while performing etc.

5. Stiletto (3121) | 9 months ago | I love her music, her voice is just fabulous. There are very few artists that you can say will definitely still be listened to in 20 or 30 years time but she is one of them. I'm listening to "Love is a Losing Game" as I'm typing this and it already sounds like a classic. It's just perfect. I hate to see someone with so much talent throwing it all away so I really do hope she sorts herself out. Unfortunately I just have a feeling that it will all end badly for her. I feel the same way about Pete Doherty too, who is also very talented although not on the same level as Amy Winehouse. There are some people that you just sense there isn't going to be a happy ending to their story and I hate to say it but I think they both come into that category. There's a terrible inevitability about it all.

nancyrowina (1710) | 9 months ago | I hope she will be the one to survive and still be here in 20 years and not go the same way as Janis Joplin and Sandy Denny, but as you say it seems inevitable she's the only one who can change herself it's up to her.

6. subtlesubmissive (587) | 9 months ago | I never heard of her until I read an article in People magazine about her. The pictures in there were gruesome, her nails were dirty, she was missing a tooth and she just looked unkempt. Losing someone to prison is in no way an excuse to break down and let yourself go as she has, I know people have daily battles with many different things but to be seen in public as she has is simply uncalled for. When I first seen this woman I could not help but to think 'ewwww', not being mean in any manner... just the way that this woman looks is totally pitiful! I wish her all the best in her recovery, if that is what she decides to do?

nancyrowina (1710) | 9 months ago | She doesn't always look like that the press just love publishing photo's of her when they catch her looking bad, and her drug problems started before her husband went to prison, apparently they did drugs together. It seems it started out as teenage rebellion for her and she just isn't growing out of it or it's got out of control.

7. Idlewild (4470) | 9 months ago | I've only heard a few of her songs but I like her old-timey Motown-style soul sound. But to be honest, I don't know whether it's Winehouse that makes the songs sound good, or whether it's the production and her backing band, the Dap-Kings, who provide such great support to an unheralded artist, Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings. I tend to think that Winehouse has an OK voice, but without the Dap-Kings she wouldn't be anything special. And if she doesn't care enough about herself to avoid so many near-death experiences, I figure why should I care about her?

nancyrowina (1710) | 9 months ago | I think her voice is pretty special compared to all the other voices currently in fashion, but her band are obviously a big part of it. I don't care about her enough that it would break my heart if she died but it would be sad to see such a talented womans life go down the drain like that. It would probably do her record sales a world of good too ironically.

Idlewild (4470) | 9 months ago | She may need to be put in an institution... sounds like she has multiple substance abuse issues as well as depression. Her husband has a world of problems as well. I hope she can get it all straightened out. I know a lot of people are disappointed that she had to cancel her U.S. tour. I'll have to check out some more of her music and see what I think of it.

8. panicdude (269) | 9 months ago | i'm not really a fan of her but i am pretty much concerned with her condition right now since i enjoy listening to her music. i really hope that she would do something about her current condition now. it will be sad for me to know if her life goes down to waste if ever the worst thing comes... some people even bet on when she'll die and that's sad to know.

nancyrowina (1710) | 9 months ago | I saw on the news yesterday she's been arrested for the same offence as her husband who is in jail "perverting the course of justice" though he is also in there for GBH apparently. I haven't watched the new today so i don't know if she was released apparently she went to the police station voluntarily and it was prearranged so I assume she was released.
