To be honest I feel bad for Mitch and Amy’s family as well, cos I can tell that he actually thought that Amy will be fine and will conquer her addiction with alcoholism which unfortunately we already knew the rest of story. I do agree with Mitch is that Blake is the one who changed Amy, some people disagreed it that it’s Amy’s fault. It also it’s her fault as well but it doesn’t matter anymore cos she is gone. And Amy was right in the first place cos love is really blind, and blind cause you to change. That is the main problem for Amy cos she is blindly in love with Blake, only see nothing bad but good in him. And also I applaud for Mitch’s response that Blake has nothing to do with Amy’s death, if she died 4 years ago, obviously no doubt that Mitch will blame him. My opinion is that fame is the part reason why Amy couldn’t handle her addiction with alcohol. Remember alcohol is depressants, and when she got drunk on stage what people do to her? Rejecting her,and booing which makes me thinks that makes her feel more depressed and harder for her to quit booze. It’s obviously she struggled a lot and public eyes put too much pressure on her which she couldn’t handle. I don’t want to talk about what if’s cos she is already gone, and we will remember her music and her legend will lives on forever.
Mitch is right, ultimately Amy’s death was an accident that was always a possibility because she went against medical advice. Blame Blake for the drugs & trying his best to keep her on them (that fisherman story is disgraceful) but not for the alcohol.
Who are the nutters being critical over the decision not to involve Blake & his family with the foundation? that makes no sense to me at all.
We can blame Blake for introducing her in hard drugs, we can blame her father for not be there, we can blame the manager for letting her sing in Belgrade, but that would be useless… no one deserves to be blame in a tragedy, even Blake for all he did. This was a terrible accident which I wish was a big lie.
We can also blame the paps for hounding her into feeling trapped and isolated, idiots for being ignorant re: her troubles. 1 of the most stupid things i read in the mirror which Mitch is supposed to have said, si at one point they even believed Amy got blake the snake on drugs, WTF, she was antidrugs, he was on drugs from being 20, HE got her on them, he admitted it, her choice, yes, but still, he brought them into her world, yes, she had issues and stuff, but never resorted to hard drugs til blake was in her life.
Me too. I keep thinking how wonderful it would be if it was all a big hoax and she’d actually been whisked away somewhere for a rest and to get better. I think I would burst with happiness if she was to reappear a year from now completely happy and healthy.
This guy was one of the main reasons for her death.
IS complete opposite on the evil daily mail:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2036749/Amy-Winehouse-dead-Father-Mitch-blames-Blake-Fielder-Civil-killing-daughter.html
stupid sensationalist headline, that’s an excellent example of how the media can twist your words & take things out of context.
they’ve taken what mitch said to blake when amy was on drugs years ago to get people to read the article. this is why killing is in quotation marks.
judging by the comments people have seen right through it.
the daily fail strikes again.
Funny how The Sun is actually being more balanced and factual here. And the Mail are just twisting Mitch’s words because they didn’t get the scoop…
She had such intense feelings for Blake and it controlled her. The songs she sang for years and years were all for him. It was a vicious cycle. It hurt her to sing shed drink or take something to take the edge off. People don’t realize yes she had a drug problem but it was fueled by everythin around her. I find myself able to fall into the same situation if given it. She had been to rock bottom and came back but her emotions And tryin to tame them is what got her in the end. She had a rough go of it but she was such a good person to everyone but herself which I relate to ultimately. Bless her sweet soul. No ones to blame she would have done what she wanted regardless of what people suggested. This was all a mistake.
Big props to Mitch I can’t say the same and I’m not even related to her.
I highly respect Mitch.
This is not a cut and dry situation of who is to blame for her drug addiction.
Drugs were Blakes world. Amy wanted to be in Blakes world, she did not have faith in herself enough to realize she was worthwhile without him.
On the other hand, she was ripe for a horrible situation like this.
I used to read that even before she met Blake she was a no show to a lot of her gigs from drinking. So obviously there was that seed planted of self abuse. As for the mental illness a lot of severe bipolar and depression show up in mid 20’s.
I love Mitch too, what are you gonna do? He’s a yapper. And yes he probably does talk too much but it is his way of dealing with stressful situations. I wish him and Janice peace.
She to my knowledge of what i’ know a no show to gigs before blake, she liked a drink and a spliff, but nothing to worry about, just a young girl, she has suffered with depression, blaske lit fuse again, and when sthey split 1st time, she her drinking got out of control, she used it as a crutch went further doenhill with a snake. But she was loads better recently, Mitch is a yapper, always has been, and Amy was his daughter, he will want to talk about her, and i do not blame him for not wanting snake involved, he got her on drugs, people would lose respect for cause if snake was involved, how people can question that is beyond me, whoever they are.
According to Joe Mott who was her boss when she first went to Camden she used to hate even smoking cannabis or weed. He says it in this film or if not this one in another film…
Thanks Nigel Jam ^^
she hated hard drugs, she admitted to smoking weed from being bout 16, and liking a drink, and boys
good girl, lol
I also read that few years ago about how she would miss some gigs in her frank days when I first got interested in Amy’s music. I agree with your comment about Blake thing. However one thing came on my mind is that I believe she became alcoholic even before meeting Blake, so even she never met Blake she probably be dealing with alcoholism issue. Since she got addictive personality, since it’s mentioned on several reports on dailymail.
