Well,I just really like her voice and there's something very sad about our ability to literally watch somebody self-destruct
on national tv.I hope she continues to get treatment.

You are a good person Geekbabe, I wasn't trying to thread crap or anything. Obviously this was just made for you to congratulate someone you thought was talented. I wanted Kanye to win all his awards and he did win a bunch and I'm sure people would've ate me alive for giving him props :p

Oh no,that's ok Josh,you disagreed with me but did so in a civil way.I think people either get Amy or they don't,you need to remember that I'm almost old enough to remember beehive hairdo's and the original versions of the songs she covers.She's got that smokey,jazz club voice and I hope she cleans up so we can enjoy it as she continues to develop as an artist..

Oh and there's nothing wrong with liking Kanye :)

To quote the DJ from the local radio station I listen to: "Who the hell is that?"

I've never heard of her before either.

She went.

While saying nooo noooo noooo ...

Anyways, there's a lot of people out there who are insanely better than her ... not sure why she won 5 for 1 fuckin song that really wasn't impressive.

Hey... if Kanye West can win multiple Grammies, anyone can!

I watched Amy Winehouse videos for the first time yesterday...first time ever hearing her music......

Incredible. :thumbsup: Original, great sound, great beats, lots of brass, loved the music. I see why she gets so much attention for being such a crackhead, she's amazing talent with so much to offer [sober.]

Sadly, such a gloomy prediction may be the case.

I can't believe she won five. I hadn't even heard of her until a couple of weeks ago and that song of her's, Rehab right? They gave her a grammy for that?

In the case of Winehouse, there is no art to remove

No kiddin'. Thankfully I am approx. the same age as all the great musicians/ groups left in this world, and most of them are still kickin' in it. But in a decade or two, music will be "dead".
