What a talented (drunk) young British girl she is!
I had heard of hear from Perez Hilton. When her CD "Back in Black" started making Best of 06 lists, I downloaded it (cause it hasn't been released in the US yet). I love it! What a great voice. Any Brits on the forum like her?
-
I really liked her first album, I haven't bought the second yet, just downloaded the singles. I love her voice.
-
Haha. I got her 'Back In Black' album this year for Christmas, first thoughts are great :D She's quite the singer... different.
-
whats her myspace page or website if she doesn't have a myspace? im too lazy to search for her haha

No, it's "Back to Black". The song isn't anything like the AC/DC song.

I downloaded "You know I'm no good" as a free Itunes single of the week a while ago. I finally got around to hearing her whole album..very soulful and the lyrics are great. She's definitely a talented woman of 23 yrs! Hope she doesn't party too hard..
-
I like both of her albums.
"Rehab" is a catchy tune ;)
-
I cannot stand her makeup in the "rehab" video.
-
^really? I love her makeup, and I love that she wears her makeup like that in real life!
-
I dislike her very much...i mean i have only heard rehab but i hate it!!
-
i respect her.

How can you hate Rehab? That songs amazing/brilliant/awesome!
My faves on the album are Rehab, Me and Mr. Jones, Back to Black, and Some Unholy War.
-
my favorite from the album is Tears Dry on Their own, I love that song!!

Me too! My sister has a dance that goes with it, we were doing it in the car the other day.
I really like Amy, particularly her lyrics. My only complaint is that she always looks so bored when she performs live. It's like she's thinking about all the things she'd rather be doing, going over her grocery list, etc.
-
I love rehab! (that looked funny reading that....) i love it, i totally relate to it (parents tried to make me go to rehab) but I said no. lol but seriously, that shit's real.
-
My fave is Me & Mr. Jones! Most of that CD is really good. Is anyone familiar with her first album? I've heard a couple songs... pretty different.
-
^the first cd is pretty good too, that's how I first heard from amy , back then when she released 'frank' and I remember seeing her on a bbc show singing Stronger than me.

there are some great songs like
"stronger than me"
"fuck me pumps"
"(there is)no greater love"
"take the box"
if you like amy you'll like her pre-rehab, pre-tattoos era too :lol:
-

my favorite is me and mr. jones, too. and some unholy war.
she has one hell of a voice.
-
So I am not sure how much I am loving the old material. It will probably grow on me though. :)
-
^yeah, it's not a one-listen thing.
-
^yeah, it's not a one-listen thing.
Yes I will have to agree. The other cd though was a one listen thing! LOL
-
Amy rocks.
-
Cool voice, catchy tunes, but there is no shortage of youtube videos of her appearing too drunk/high to perform up to par... and that is kind of discouraging. Rehab is a neat song, but it appears that she might really benefit from it!
-
she is a good singer, ilove rehab and you know i´m no good.
-
I think she's so ridiculous.. sorry to say that.. she has a great music... but her attitudes are so stupid, she wants fame, to be in the magazine front page...
I've been reading that she herself said she will die in one year, she is like Britney, she loves doin' something to people talk about....
-
Amy just checked into rehab on the 10th i believe. i hope she gets better.. shes talented unlike most of the other girls that have been in rehab or that are in rehab.

Amy Winehouse on three-day drug binge
BANG Showbiz
Aug. 10, 2007 07:44 AM
Amy Winehouse had been on a three-day drug binge before she was hospitalized this week.
The painfully thin 'Rehab' singer - who was rushed to hospital in the early hours of Wednesday morning after passing out at her home - allegedly took a cocktail of ecstasy, cocaine and ketamine, mixed with vodka, whisky and lager during the mammoth session with her husband Blake Fielder-Civil.
A close friend of Blake's, who was at the house party, told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "She looked like a zombie - white as a sheet and trembling. And I'll never forget her eyes. They were dead, like a shark."
The 23-year-old star's bender began just hours after she flew back to London from a Chicago music festival at Hounslow's The Robert Inn on Monday afternoon.
The star downed pints of lager and made several trips to the bathroom with her husband in the two hours they were there.
The couple then headed to their local pub, Camden's The Hawley Arms to continue partying late into the night.
Amy was next spotted acting "very jittery" at a cafe; near her north London home on Tuesday and demanded hot food.
She then threw an impromptu house party, where her excessive drugs consumption and lack of sleep is said to have finally taken its toll and she started convulsing.
A friend of the couple said, "Amy had boasted she hadn't slept in three days.
"Blake telephoned friends at 10 p.m., yelling (explitive) she's having a fit!'
"The word went around like wild fire. Friends rushed around to help, and Blake calmed Amy down by giving her water before taking her to hospital.
"He was terrified - but she was a mess. She didn't know what was going on."
Amy - who was given an emergency adrenaline shot and had her stomach pumped at London's University College Hospital before being released on Wednesday evening - checked into London's The Priory rehab center Thursday.
Worried family and friends fear the singer - who received three MTV Video Music Award nominations this week - will die if she does not put a halt to her crazy-party lifestyle.
-
The singer, who refuses to go to rehab, spoke exclusively to the News Of The World.
Says Wino:
“It was one of the most terrifying moments of my life. It was just crazy—one of the most terrifying moments of my life. I don’t know how to explain what happened. I don’t really know myself. I can’t remember what I looked like. I couldn’t recognise myself. It was terrifying—I was terrified. I was so out of control. It just happened. It shocked me. I’m sorry—I just don’t know what got into me. I never want to feel that way again.I’ve scared myself this time. I was all over the place. I know things have got to change. I have to sort myself out. I’m fine. I’ll be back at work on Monday. I’m fine, honest.”
She better not check out of rehab on Monday or shes probably gonna end up dead like anna nicole. I hate to say that cuz I love Amy, but she needs help! & to stay in rehab.

Amy Winehouse isn't in Rehab. Rumors are floating that she is, but she actually isn't. She recently (as in yesterday) had a meeting with family and close friends, in which fights broke out and such. She is staying at the Four Seasons Hotel, not rehab.
-
how did you hear that? can we have a source?

Newspapers (mainly the Sun) over here, where they had talked to her :nod:. She said at one point, Rehab was a load of bull and all she needs to fix herself was her Dad.
-
that might be an old interview or not true.. TMZ & every other place has reported Amy to be in rehab.
I'll see if Extra or Access Hollywood mentions it tonight.
-
No it wasn't old. The interview with her was from Sunday. Then they seemed to have another one (or maybe just hadn't put everything down in writing) in today's newspaper. If she says she isn't in rehab, I am pretty sure she isn't. They even mentioned that there were rumours floating of her being in there, but as stated, she actually isn't.
-
i just saw on E news that she said rehab was a cop-out and she wasn't going.

:D. Yup.
-
call me blonde, ive heard the word before but what does she mean by a cop-out?
-
Amy denied the link that Perez posted with a story & pics about her & her boyfriend getting into a bloody (literally bloody) fight, saying she was cutting herself & that her boyfriend was trying to help her. if you go to http://perezhilton.com you'll find both of the articles he posted about it.
just a warning, the pics on the site he posted are really graphic.. like bloody type graphic.
she's gonna die soon if she doesn't get help now.. I don't know what story I believe, all I know is that she needs help. I feel so bad for her, she's more effed up than Britney, Lindsay & Paris combined.
-
Amy Winehouse is coming to Berkely, California August first, i really want to go. is anyone else going?
-
She should get her life sorted out before doing any concerts. Anyone see that video of her and Pete Doherty and the baby mice? That was one of the freakiest videos i've seen on youtube.
Go to rehab Amy!
-
Amy is such a talent. I'm not against her drug use because, come on, she makes brilliant music. she does need to cut it down a few notches though, i agree. dunno if rehab will help 'er.

don't get your hopes up..she has a tendency to either cancel, or come on stage really effed up.

Go to rehab Amy!
i agree & yes i couldn't even watch the whole videos, i was like WTF. She's 1000 times worse than Britney was!

um even if she does cut it down, the more she uses the more these drugs are just gonna mess her up & i hate to say this, but possibly kill her. she NEEDS to stop altogether.
-
I wouldn't be surprised if she was in jail before the show, but I'll but a ticket and get a refund if something happens.
-
I was thinking about this the other day, but I think she's probably made one of the only albums of the 2000s that will be remembered as a classic.
And I'm gonna get a lot of flak for that I'm sure. But whatever.
-
well she's not in jail yet, but she's in the hospital as i speak for fainting.
the doctors say it's "inconclusive" (is that the right word?) on why she did & are still doing tests but it's obvious why she did. hopefully though they will talk her into going to rehab to get help.
btw she was signing for fans OUTSIDE OF HER HOUSE before she fainted..what the hell? a celeb i like did something pretty amazing for me & a few other fans/friends of mine i was with when i met them that i doubt they've done for other fans, but even that celebrity wouldn't be that nice & sign for fans outside of their house haha. they would probably be like "what the hell are you doing outside of my house??" but i'll give her credit for being nice i guess :)

RIP Amy Winehouse...
27 is way too soon for someone with so much talent to loose their life, leaving us to wonder how much more music we've been cheated of, and
to ponder how someone can find themselves in a space that is so saturated by their current, there's no space to take stock of their future :'(

So sad.
-
i saw it on the news... sad. not even a fan of hers, but i recognize she was talented. a sad story. i hope lindsay doesn't choose the same ways amy did.
-
I couldn't believe my ears. I heard it on the radio on the way back from Delaware this morning. Very sad. She had a huge voice. In one way I expected it but I still didn't want it to be so. She will be missed!
-
What I LOVED about her was that despite her drug and alcohol addiction, her originality and her genuine-ness.
She brought back the Beehive look!!! I mean how many people can pull that off so non-chalantly.
And her voice and her MUSIC. So alternative.
Sigh.
It's almost as if she's looking at the world now and going, "Cos you know... I'm no good" :(

agreed. very original. unique voice. unique fashion.

like watching a train 30 miles away--knowing it's going to wreck and being able to do nothing about it.
Amy. You will be missed. Sorely. :-[
