amy winehouse for me is in the middle she has sold over 7 million albums but takes drugs and gets pissed come on amy get better
She's a legend. Most rock and roll legends have been at one point in their lives addicts, so why pick on Amy? She is very talented and has a lot of hit songs under her belt.
Legend. The paparazzi is making her look like a junk tho. If I would get chased all day by lots of paparazzi's I would become a junk too.
What famous "rock legends" didn't take drugs? Basically 99% of them did, but Amy Winehouse has been in the news for it so hers is probably the most public in recent years.
She's ruining her tallent. At least the other big rock acts seemed to keep their stuff together a little better than Amy does.
amy winehous is messed up. She is not a legend and at her current rate will never be. As much ad I hate Jacko I have to say he is a legend. Same thing with Rolling Stones. Winehous on the other hand is not. 7 million albums is nothing. Coldplays first album sold more than that.
When you compare mediocrity to poop then the mediocre seems amazing. This is why she's considered "great". There is nothing else of value to compare her to
Great point sirjorgeofculver. There is no such thing as music these days in the mainstream world....except for the few exceptions.
most legendary artist are or have been addicted to drugs! its not like shes hiding it or singing songs for 8 year olds! I dont think people call Ray Charles a junkie they call him a legend! tho i think amy needs a few more years under her belt! im trying to think of a music legend that wasnt a junkie at some time!! no luck!tho im sure there is a few! they say the better the drugs the better the artist but im anti drugs so i dont know what to say!
You have a couple out there who were never addicted. U2 (to the best of my knowledge) Coldplay Michael Jackson (of course he did like little boys though)
Most people portray any ordinary scag/crack head complete and utter scum. Especially over here, if you see someone in an alley smoking crack you wouldn't let your kids anywhere near them. You wouldn't want to be friends with them, or touch them or even be near them. So why do so many people idolize Amy Whinehouse? Just because she "sings" people support her and are still fans of her. To me she's just a no good drug addict.
just because she won a Grammy really does not say anything. We all know they are cooked....that's why no one watches them anymore.
Her talent is not in doubt but it is getting to the point where she is as famous for drugs as she is for her music. Has she never heard of discretion? bit of a soap opera if you ask me.
