Amy Winehouse
 

I know she's a drug addict and looks like she needs a good wash, but how amazing is she? Her songs are brilliant! I'm loving her right now. Anyone else impressed?

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

think shes well overated, plain but not exceptional.:)

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

i think despite the drugs..... shes absolutely fantastic.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

it would be entertaintaing if she doused herself in petrol and lit a fag or juggled working chainsaws :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

i refuse to listen to her- turn the radio off when shes on etc

I think its disgraceful that she can make money through being a role model with the state she is in. And every bit of publicity concerning the drugs is publicity for herself as well, no such thing as bad publicity and all that

And then we sit there and wonder why the UK has such a bad drug problem amongst kids!

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

somebody should 'tub' the diseased riddled skank like they used to do with kittens and pups , waste of space as far as I can see ;);)

ok , I've had a lousy day :D :D

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

:rofl38::rofl38::rofl38:

Just about sums it up really. A hugely overrated and extremely mediocre performer, in my opinion. I was watching Ruby Turner on the Jools Holland Show on New Year's Eve - a lady with a vocal power and presence that leaves Amy Winehouse standing, but sadly nowhere near as successful. Still, that's the way it goes in the shallow, superficial world of modern music!

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

kinda harsh, i would have just said a strict rehab regime lmao

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

A classic role model..... for everything wrong with our society today :mad:

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

There have been three other threads about the much talked about Miss Winehouse, mine being the first, of course.:D

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

Alright singer i dont like her that much however was watch bbc3 and she got voted most annoying person of 2007

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

she looks like summat the cats dragged out....LOL....BUT i do like one song....valerie, its a really good song, apart from that ......ewwwww

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

I like her voice but don't like the girl.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

No, don't like her music and she's a right state.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

Well I had a listen to her other lesser known songs on her albums, you know, not the ones in our charts, and I thought they're so different to what she has released. I really enjoy listening to her, and if Andrew Lloyd Weber can give her a thumbs up and liken her to Dusty Springfield and Ella Fitzgerald after seeing her perform live, the girl must have something going for her, and I think that a compliment like that coming from him is something she should be proud of, I think the problem is that she probably doesn't realise that she's ruining herself.

She has a nice raw voice, I like that. There will undoubtedly be people better than her, there always are, and making music isn't all about being seen, I'm sure the majority would rather avoid the publicity and strains of fame and be happy with staying underground with less money, being less well known.

Speaking of strain, anyone seen britneys new song about the paparazzi? I hate the song, but the lyrics are interesting. I kind of like how you can imagine her talking about the things she's singing about. She appears to be much stronger in this new song.

The strains of being a young woman and in the lime light is so clear in both of them, yet they carry on with it and try their best. Those with brilliant talent are better off without the fame in my opinion. Living without superstardom is a small price to pay if they want to stay happy and enjoy their careers.

The list of superstars who have turned to drugs and gone loopy is quite long. Britney, Whitney Houston, Jacko just to name a few severe cases of people who have lost everything due to that kind of fame. Stay in the Jazz cafes talented musicians, dont fight to get into the limelight, it clearly isn't worth it in the long run!

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

I love her music....don't like seeing her live on TV ( always under the influence from what I've seen ) and I don't like seeing her pics in the papers coz she looks so gaunt and not with it ....a shame really coz she had it all ... ..the voice .... the looks and the respect....sadly she's lost the last two !

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

to be honest i`m a fan of both, just diffrent takes on a great song, amy winehouse just provides vocals for the other version its actually `done` by mark ronson from his `versions `cd

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

Yep, but it's her vocals that I don't like. ;)

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

i saw her on a show that showed her before she started on drugs and she sounded so much different she looked alot different too

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

Yep, for me that'll sound about right as far as she's concerned.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

I haven't seen her live or on telly at all, only listened to her albums. I just like the songs for what they are, i'm not particularly bothered if she looks a bit haggard now as long as I have those lovely albums to listen to :D

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

I hate the zutons version, it seems so much slower and drab. I love Mark Ronsons music, get up and dance music :) amy was the cherry on the top.

So in theory Mark Ronson ruined it aswell as its him 'featuring' amy winehouse. He must've asked her to do it in the first place :p

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

How can you mention Ella Fitzgerald in the same post as Amy Winehouse.....Ella was a different class of singer altogether.
No I'll give Amy a miss.......don't like her at all.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

And Yes, I do know that you were reporting what Andrew Lloyd Webber said about her....he must need his ears syringing to make a comment like that.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

I'm not an avid listener of Dusty Springfield or Ella Fitzgerald, but to be fair Andrew Lloyd Webber has more musical expertise upon which to make a judgment like that (beyond personal preference) than anyone here on this board.
Winehouse is a total bint in my book; the drugged up fights with her waste of skin husband, the look, the media persona... it's all incredibly annoying. But I do like some of her music. I like Back to Black and her version of 'Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow' is nothing short of sensational. Seeing her perform live at Glastonbury changed by opinion on her quite a bit.
As far as 'Valerie' is concerned, I don't like her version. It's too polished for me and is void of the soul that The Zutons' original song carries. However I have listened to her raw demo version and I believe it is much better than the final mix. Mark Ronson is an awful producer in my opinion and maybe that's where the animosity towards the song is rooted. It is for me anyway.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

she's not good live, your right there. i enjoy her music and listening to her on the radio but thats about it

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

excellent singer......motown recalled

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

omg she looks a right mess as a blonde

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

LOL....nothing new there.....she must have been high:rolleyes:

Anyone who likes dying their hair has dyed it an atrocious colour at some point :p

I think amy is like marmite, you either love her or you hate her.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

my hubby loves her songs.
shes a bit of a minger but a good singer.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

hey your a poet, but didnt know it!:p:rolleyes:

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

i see that shes been caught taking the drugs now....silly cow, why oh why?
Amy Winehouse Allegedly Smoking Crack Cocaine In The Sun |Sky News|UK News

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

There are funny cuts of sound and bits of film aswell on that video, its a bit suspicious. And it was no secret she did drugs, its not like she denied it, she mentions it in most of her songs.

They should probably throw her in prison for a while and make her go cold turkey. I'm not a big fan of such treatment but she is probably going to end up killing herself if she carries on like that. Would do her favours in the long run.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

just seen her on the news she has lost weight and looks ill.ill give her 6 months and she will be dead .....

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

probably right there c'monstanley, she looks halfway there now:rolleyes:

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

well shes gone into rehab!!

thought she said no no no!!???

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

lmao post of the year!!

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

on the reverse side if the skanky drug addict dies of a overdose kids may learn from not do the heavy stuff

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

People die of drug overdoses all the time, why would people learn if it happened to her? In Wales the kids have romanticised (sp) suicide and death, they would probably all just do the drugs more knowing our backwards society.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

well we dont hear about these people dying of drug overdoses all the time...but you betcha you will hear if she died of an overdose.

Well were talking heaving drugs.. coke, heroin etc... IMO no-one in their right mind should want to take these drugs...and people only need to take in the life of a pathetic waste of flesh like amy winhouse to see the results and not to go there..... The backwards society is they shove this crap down our throats in the first place.....

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

I love Amy Winehouse, so you'll have trouble converting me into a hater. I hear Garinda is a huge fan as well, he made 3 whole threads about her, so I wouldnt bother with him. Try Less, he hates everything I like.

Any what have you accomplished in life? Ironically your name sounds familiar to me.

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

combining three threads, someone should toss Amy Winehouse and Brittany Spears into a pit and let them loose on each other .....perfect introductory episode for the new Gladiators series :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

All kids in Wales have a romantic view of suicide do they?
Learn something new everyday about them yokels. :rolleyes:

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

What does it matter what i have accomplished(musically?)... Well if my name sounds familiar...let me know why... interested in that

Nobodys trying to convert you into hater... Shes got talent but unfortunately loads of young uns are the targets for her material so there is some responsibility to make an image......

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

I started one thread about her...the first one.:D

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

Looks like the inevitable has happened, Amy Winehouse as been refuse a visa to enter America for the Grammy Awards even though she is nominated for six awards. Suppose they think they have enough problems of their own with miss Spears and don't want any more from GB

Re: Amy Winehouse
 

well at least the yanks are particular! more than you can say for our wimps.:rolleyes:
