There’s a new 2 hour interview on a podcast called “We Need To Talk” where Blake Fielder Civil talks about Amy, their past in great detail and his current life. Link to the interview here: [https://youtu.be/2v5uaXsbe2c?is=Se0IYbds18uQjH06](https://youtu.be/2v5uaXsbe2c?is=Se0IYbds18uQjH06) I learnt a few new insights here (such as Amy using c0ke before even meeting Blake, which reminds me of the same exact thing that happened to Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown), and it was a huge deep dive. I don’t think Blake has done a big interview like this before in the past. Your thoughts on this? I made an anonymous poll, you are free to answer your opinion regarding this current situation. (The second poll is a multiple choice one). _Poll ([view on site](https://www.amywinehouseforum.co.uk/t/blake-filder-civil-podcast-interview/11612/1))_ _Poll ([view on site](https://www.amywinehouseforum.co.uk/t/blake-filder-civil-podcast-interview/11612/1))_ ---

People here seem to be so obssesed with this guy…more than Amy’s herself. I mean, who is going to waste two hours listening to someone who charged money to his wife or stole belongings while his wife was singing with Prince? What good things can this guy offer at this point?  Maybe releasing some new footage of Amy from his ‘‘videographer’’ days? ---

I personally listened to the interview because hey, it’s Blake, he rarely talks in media, I wanted to hear what he had to say. It was an interesting video, he takes accountability but also talks about addiction in detail. We’ve seen and heard so many POVs and so many different opinions from old friends, family. I was curious to see what his take was on the Amy documentary etc. ---

In any case, without Blake in Amy’s life, no ‘Back to Black’.    I’ll invest two hours to listen to the podcast. Thanks for the posting.  ---

The cause is probably a combination of all these things. Family situations, friendships, bad relationships, relationships with drug-addicted boys, and the fact that she herself was sensitive to drug use meant that success, the invasion of the media and paparazzi created the perfect mix for self-destruction.    also as people tipically say here in Italy, “who seeks the match, finds the match” ---

In my opinio the tragic, is that she was only capable of writing and singing songs about her own life. Her hit songs were all about personal loss, conflict, struggle, and self-destruction. She could joke about it (I’m immediately thinking of her comment before starting October Song at the North Sea Jazz Festival). But in the end, you can’t keep that up forever, I think. ---

Yeah Amy was a very honest person with no filter. Her songwriting was storytelling. That’s why for me she’s my favourite artist til this day. > [@amyinourhearts](#): > > Do you really believe a word of what he says? No, I take everything with a grain of salt but it was interesting hearing his side of the story. I was more curious where he stands with Mitch nowadays and how things were after Amy’s passing.
