DOWN. Amy Winehouse

Here’s some advice CW urges you to heed: stop thinking about Amy Winehouse as a human lady-person. Regard her as a nutty cartoon character, instead. It’s better for your nerves that way. For instance: last month Winehouse was ejected from a pantomime in Milton Keynes, when she started heckling the cast, including Bobby Davro, Anthea Turner and Mickey Rooney. According to reports, Winehouse repeatedly shouted: “He’s f***ing behind you!” at Cinderella, and “F*** Cinders — marry me!” at Buttons. If you believe that Winehouse is a borderline genius — gruesomely spaffing her best years on substances so wonky-fying that you end up shouting “marry me!” at Bobby Davro — this is all quite upsetting. But if you just think of it as another crazy ruse in the long-term plan to catch the Road Runner, it all suddenly becomes quite jolly again.


I think it's upsetting, but I've learned not to go off the deep end about it.

How telling! Amy's like a mirror to all who write about her, reflecting their own character back at them.

Yes, I've always thought that how someone reacts to Amy is a good character test. Not that Amy can't be exasperating at times.

Yes...we have discovered a fail-safe character litmus test! lol

Your views, Alan, Dave and Sue, on people's responses to Amy, are exactly mine; it is rare to see three comment in a row about one subject that I can unreservedly agree with, which is simply because they are so true and to the point; and yet, many choose to ignore the glaringly obvious, whether it presents them with a positive or a negative reflection of themselves, if it makes them feel uncomfortable about themselves, and that includes me, sometimes.;-)

Amy Winehouse died, and she's taken a part of my soul with her. May that part be the love that I felt for her, and may the love that I still feel for her be the undying part of us both.
