Amy WinehouseView Messages“I have noticed that there are alot of news stories and TV entertainment shows about her and her problems. Then she wins a bunch of grammies and I am wondering what is the big deal about her. I have not heard a single song by her and I listen to many different radio stations at work. I pull up youtude and click on her most famous song and was shocked. This woman is horrible. I cannot believe that people think she can sing. WOW. Rehab was terrible, no way should she had won the Grammy for that. All we can hope is that she will disappear like all of the other 'best new artists'. Sorry if any of you like her but this is my opinion. Yeech.” 12:12:25 PM 2/16/08 “Star Wars sucks when you watch it on YouTube also.” 12:14:39 PM 2/16/08 “But then again Yota, Emmenem also won a Grammie so the distinction is a shallow one IMHO.” 1:20:44 PM 2/16/08 “LMAO! NPR radio was talking about her getting a lot more sales and recognition since her award. I've never heard anything of hers. Apparently I haven't missed anything, huh? WHAT UP NIGAL?!!!!!!!” 1:25:14 PM 2/16/08 “I can't get past the funky eyelash makeup...i'm sure you men know exactly what i'm talking about :) I don't see Star Wars sucking no matter where you watch it.” 2:49:13 PM 2/16/08 “That wheels-off old-school soul is cool for a while. She's mostly working the train wreck factor.” 2:51:44 PM 2/16/08 “no clue what she looks like. Soul is cool sometimes. What's the train wreck factor?” 2:53:08 PM 2/16/08 “did someone say train wreck?  ”4:53:30 PM 2/16/08 “Ooh! She sexy! Mmmmmmm mmmm!” 5:01:51 PM 2/16/08 “LOL, tenjen, here's star wars, the Online version.  ”6:22:49 PM 2/16/08 “yup. that sucks.” 6:25:42 PM 2/16/08 “Don't you poor rednecks know it's all kewl and stuff for a pop princess to be on hard drugs and act like a fool?” 6:26:47 PM 2/16/08 “That's hot.” 6:28:24 PM 2/16/08 “i think her songs are ok, but not great. i think you gotta have a little fuddy-duddy factor in you to think she's horrible. but yea, she's a train wreck” 7:14:03 PM 2/16/08 “I look for her to die from an OD and join the rest of the marginally talented dumbasses who killed themselves. Then her talent will be inflated/overrated and she will be immortalized for ever like Cobane, Hendrix, Joplin, ect.” 7:19:57 PM 2/16/08 “Wowza. Joplin? Hendrix? Overrated? Inflated? Yipers.” 7:21:34 PM 2/16/08 “IMHO of course.” 7:22:27 PM 2/16/08 “of course! I'd love to hear a better girl rocker with more soul than Joplin. Any suggestions?” 7:23:27 PM 2/16/08 “did not know who she was til i googled her name and i still don't know who she is.” 7:35:28 PM 2/16/08 “Nigal, check this out - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgFWibrTAKQ&feature=related Now, I have to say, this girl even beats Billy Holiday on this song (ignore the dork at the end)- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WWtGpEqpV4&feature=related” 7:38:43 PM 2/16/08 “She has a nice voice, but I couldn't give a #&%!$ about her personal life or her awards. She makes music, the music is all that matters, the rest of it is just crap strewn along from a "reality show" obsessed media. It's about the music. Nothing more. Ignore the rest.” 3:08:15 AM 2/17/08 “Nigal, check this out - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgFWibrTAKQ&feature=related[/b] I normally avoid these types of discussions because music is art and like all art it's all relative. Having said that the impression I get from seeing Joplin sing is that; 1) her voice sounds like shyt, 2) she always looks like she's trying too hard, 3) she's trying to sound black. No matter what my personal opinion of her is though the fact remains she is no where as good as her dead rock star status gives her.” 3:22:25 AM 2/17/08 “I didn't watch the Grammies so I never heard of her.” 5:23:38 AM 2/17/08 “Amy 'pass that crackpipe' Winehouse flees her home, claiming that a poltergeist named "Henry" wants to kick her a$$ http://www.ecanadanow.com/news/entertainment/amy-winehouse-worried-ghosts-are-trying-to-harm-her-20080522.html” 6:39:33 PM 5/22/08 “You're a regular gossip columnist, home boy.” 4:16:32 AM 5/23/08 “Drug junkies are so cool. *snicker*” 10:25:29 AM 5/23/08 “Box of rocks” 11:55:59 AM 5/23/08 Just Say No 12:09:12 PM 5/23/08 “"Box of rocks" You sold the family jewels to support your habit??” 1:12:39 PM 5/23/08 “Who cares what she drugs she does or what fetishes she has. She's a kick ass musician. That's why people like her.” 1:21:31 PM 5/23/08 “Silly libbies.....” 1:23:09 PM 5/23/08 “  ”2:27:21 PM 5/23/08 “imo, shes not a kick-ass musician. shes a mediocre musician with a nice gimmick. i wouldnt mind seeing more old-fashioned soul music, done by genuinely highly talented musicians” 4:30:05 PM 5/23/08 Just Say No To Drugs “Amy Winehouse drives another nail in the coffin that is her career racial epithets and drug paraphernalia http://www.mercurynews.com/breakingnews/ci_9540513” 12:18:29 PM 6/10/08 “who cares. I wish people would stop giving her the time of day....” 12:22:45 PM 6/10/08 “Dude, you could have a career as a gossip columnist. Crash Bang, you have a tin ear. >8^b~~” 12:24:21 PM 6/10/08 “Drugs are Bad, mmmm...kay.” 12:43:54 PM 6/10/08 “There is something unsettling about someone who feels the need to live vicariously through the experiences, good or bad, of another.” 12:53:07 PM 6/10/08 “Drugs Are Bad, mmmm...kay?” 12:54:53 PM 6/10/08 “So Stove, do you take ANY drugs? Are they GOOD drugs because you take them and got them at a pharmacy?” 1:01:27 PM 6/10/08 “What you said, Rosey. Winehouse is one hell of a musician.” 1:06:58 PM 6/10/08 “Drugs Are Bad, mmm....kay?” 1:11:23 PM 6/10/08 “she's got the lifestyle of a musician down pat, anyways” 1:41:29 PM 6/10/08 “At least the people that think junkies are "kewl", have her down pat.” 2:12:30 PM 6/10/08 “Winehouse is one hell of a musician. This from the guy who thinks Hendrix was a good guitarist...” 2:30:59 AM 6/11/08 “Another tin ear checks into to gossip column. Oh yeah....................drugs are bad, OK?” 5:26:06 AM 6/11/08 “How could you listen to the music of someone who takes drugs? You know taking drugs is like writing a check to Osama Bin Laden himself.” 7:30:30 AM 6/11/08 “LMAO @ duct!” 9:25:16 AM 6/11/08 “If we culled out all of the musicians in history who did drugs, well, very few would be left.” 9:36:00 AM 6/11/08 “Who gives a flying *$&# about Amy Winehouse? Besides NetNanny and MarkO, that is.” 9:49:35 AM 6/11/08
