AMY WINEHOUSE tour cancelled oh boo hoo
 
She is supposedly a talented pop star. If what she does is singing then I am the reincarnation of Pavarotti. I heard her screaching on stage during a news segment a couple of weeks ago and it turned my stomach. If she is one of the hot new singers out of the current talent pool then the pool she crawled out of is only puddle-deep.
When I first saw her I thought she was one of the girls vying to replace Elvira. How does somebody with little or no talent get marketed into a semi star? Its nothing more than a scam.

When she first came on the scene, she was seen as a new fresh talent. Then she subscribed to the "Courtney Love School of Music" and cut out the middle man and went right to washed out druggie/boozer. Sad, but that's the path she chose.

I got to tell you guys, I practically stopped the car when I first heard her songs on the radio. She sounded old school - 60s R&B. very, very cool stuff.
Im a music snob and barely like anyone from the last 20 yrs. He sound was very unique and reminded me of the old James Bond themes.
I cant vouch from her live or perosnal habits, but I am impressed

RIJIMMY 11-28-2007 12:57 PM

crank this baby up, audio only. I really like her style.

whole thing is Jimmy... wasted talent, very reminiscent of a Shirley Bassey, vocal wise... rich kid, fame and fast life, husband troubles...denials... she was a looker before the druged out look, heavy tattos, piled high beehive, missing teeth.. a shame, as wasted talent always is.

Karl F 11-28-2007 01:49 PM

some earlier stuff, loved the sense of humor in this one..

even if it isn't, (great if it isn't!), at the rate she is going downhill, she'll get there, unless she do get some rehab.

Her singing career will be done soon and by next year she'll be doing porn movies.

RIJIMMY 11-30-2007 10:44 AM

is she any more drugged out looking that hendirx, marley, richards, cooper, iggy, etc?

I dont get the hype,,,,,90% of the music I listen is from drug addicts, Im a huge jazz fan.

Rockport24 11-30-2007 05:32 PM

she's got a good sound, but it was better when the original people did it in the 60's. she's nothing spectacular or ground breaking, just another singer in my opinion that is recycling an old sound. Her behavior is the only thing keeping her revelant if you ask me.

Backbeach Jake 11-30-2007 06:26 PM

She's like watching a car that you know is gonna crash, you can't look, but you can't look away. She must be in a lot of pain. Sad.

stripersnipr 11-30-2007 06:37 PM

Too bad, I always liked her. Reminded me of Rikki Lee Jones.

Karl F 12-09-2007 09:33 AM
