Babs Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Holy shit! All those tats remind me of Scott Weiland. She does look doable there though. I admit it! I thought you might like her . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
songbird Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 She's just another piece of crap, like Britney Spears. Another fine example on how people's tastes have severely degraded over the years, thanks to a greedy media and a gullible public. That's a very broad statement you make, to call anyone who listens to Amy Winehouse gullible... maybe she is not your taste but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to recognize that she is talented. And all this slamming her because she does drugs. Like your precious 1970's rockstars never had drug problems. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelmon Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 All of this doesn't make me regret missing the whole thing... 'cept for the tiny bit I saw walking thru the living room.

I actually didn't think it was that boring. I thought it was ok. I watched the whole thing, and I've never done that before I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Action Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 The Grammys are a joke anyway. What wa that Robert said years ago? "Its the industry jacking off itself." If you enjoy substandard talent, so be it. Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dzldoc Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 You know I'd never heard her sing before the grammies and so I was curious because she's everywhere.I was expecting to be disappointed.I thought she was quirky and kinda sexy. Plus I like chicks with tats. Damn! Tats on a chick scare the shit outta me, I'd be lookin' behind the door every time I came home Wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahfin Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 If you enjoy substandard talent, so be it. Have fun. There were actually some very worthy candidates (as there are every year) such as Wilco, Betty LaVette, Peter Case, Levon Helm, Steve Earle, etc. but not all of the award presentations were broadcast.

Melanie_72 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 I think Amy is very talented and I hope she gets herself together. I wouldn't compare her to Britney though, no way!! Problems they are having, yes, but talent and actually being able to sing, heck no!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timetraveller Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Why anyone would listen to Amy Junkhead .... when they could listen to Amy MacDonald amazes me !!!! At least the Brits are finally realising at last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the queen without a king Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I disagree about the Britney comparison. The only thing Britney and Amy have in common is paparazzi chasing them. I was skeptical at first, but after listening to the entire 'Back To Black' album I loved it. She is very talented: writes her own songs and plays guitar...and piano at times. The area she needs improvement the most is live performing. It may be that she gets so nervous that she has to drink till she can't stand up in order to loosen up....if that's it, she better find a solution before people get bored of her shenanigans. I don't agree with her personal choices....the drugs...etc...but I would be a colossal hypocrite considering the admiration I have for... Jimmy Page, for example, who was no stranger to drugs himself. Not liking her is one thing, saying she has no talent because of how she looks and her issues with drugs is another...

ninelives Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 I really like Amy Winehouse. I find her a refreshing change. She's got a great voice and a uniqueness about her. I'm glad she won. As far as comparing her to Britney, except for the fact they are both going through some personal struggles, Amy is talented and I personally don't feel that way about Britney. I hope she gets better soon and returns to the stage. I think she's got a great future ahead and I'm looking forward to what that will entail.

Knebby Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Just saw something on Yahoo. Amy went to the emergency room in London today. She is all over the tabloids in London. She isn't actually. The "tabloids" cover the whole UK - not just "London" - and since she was taken to hospital today, it won't make the papers here- tabloid or otherwise - until tomorrow. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7530099.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just returned from London (yesterday). She was all over the tabloids even BEFORE todays news. Don't pick a fight with me today, I am suffering jet lag.

Knebby Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 She's always in the papers here in the UK ( not just London) - she's a big star. Your statements certainly did not appear separate (not even by a paragraph) What ya gonna do - type me a big punch??? Hope you get over your jet lag - it's a bugger.

emiliana Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I can´t belive there is an Amys thread here!. I´m a huge fan of Amy since a year ago and a fan from Zeppelin since i was 19. I guess that even u like the girl or no, even u like all the paparazi shit or not, even u sayd that her life is a complete mess, u can´t deny that her music is something diferent and fresh. The first band i hear was the Rolling Stones but i sudenly get tired of them. Then i meet Zeppelin. Since 19 to now (I´m 23) i love old things, all the new things sounds like shit to me, except a few bands like Wolfmother, The white Stripes, The hives, etc. Whe i first hear Amy i can´t belive it. And in spite that r 2 diferent things, i get the same feeling that when i listen Zepp, i feel like i melt, like i´m going to explote inside... She is unique now, and thanks to her i start listening some music that i never listen , that i didn´t know, like Sarah Vaughan, Ella, Dinah, etc etc. She opend the door to us, her fans, to listen good music... She sound good, her 2 albums r great. Personally i love Frank more that B2B. And i guess that if we love Led Zeppelin we know what is good, and if we know what is good we can´t say that Amy is like Britney... Sorry for my shity english Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electrophile Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Amy Winehouse will probably OD sometime in the next year. She's literally on the crash course to hell. It's such a fucking profound disgrace when someone with as much talent as she had, chooses to piss it all away on crack and god knows what else. It's like, do you have a brain in your head at all?

Knebby Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 She's a lovely person and really it's a damn shame if she continues to waste it like she has been doing, but hardly a "disgrace". None of us are inside her head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electrophile Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Last time I checked;addiction wasn't a choice. No one forced a crack pipe in her hand. She's clearly addicted to it, I'm not disputing that. I'm saying that she chose to start using drugs, and it was a road she went down willingly. We all have a choice whether or not we will consume illicit substances if they're ever offered to us. Some say no, others go whole-hog. She chose to go whole-hog, even at the risk of her own life. It's not like someone shoved crack in her face and said "take it or we'll kill you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
