I'm not a fan of hers but if you can't admit she has talent than all I can assume is you are deaf.

She can sing, she has a good voice, but I don't like her music.

Amy Winehouse is more talented then Jim Morrison was.

Ethan's point is an excellent one. We sometimes celebrate addicts other times we loathe them. It's senseless. It's her fault yes, but she's not well. She is sick and needs help, she deserves sympathy but no more then anyone else in her situation.

That's my take.

Point taken.
I think she deserves sympathy from people who know her, i.e. her family and friends. But not me.

Why are you so persistant in defending her?

She is definitely talented. I just can't watch her sing. Something about the way she looks when she sings distracts me from the actual song and really takes away from it. But, I do respect her talent (when she is lucid...have we all seen the video of her singing with Charlotte Church...scary!).

As far as how messed up she is...I think it's funny how people get online and discuss celebrities as if they know them personally. It's obvious Winehouse has some serious problems, but none of us really has the right to say how much she respects herself or how much she loves drugs or whatever. The media is only going to show people the bad stuff, because that's what most people are interested in. Plus, how many of the people who frequent this very website haven't suffered from the same problems? I'm sure they wouldn't benefit from being judged so harshly.

Best way to handle a drug addiction is keep taking it regular like keef!
Or stop fully like keef.
None of that start stop crap.
Fine wine, good food and a little of what you fancy to lighten her day!
