And Still Singing About It

Amy Winehouse miraculously made it through her performance for Nelson Mandela without having some sort of breakdown. Well, kind of. We suppose that depends on your definition of "breakdown." Amy makes us sad, because her music is great but we get so distracted waiting for her to keel over and have some sort of drug-induced seizure that it takes the enjoyment out of her performance.

    I think it's wonderful she's surrounded by so many people that care about her well-being.

    I'm really tired and underwhelmed by this same song, with all its tongue-in-cheekihood, rendered in various venues by a person who always sounds overly drugged and f%$#ed up. The fact that she still keeps getting these gigs (Mandela's birthday?! why!!!???) is unfathomable. Name me someone else whose music is this old (nothing new & only one album) who keeps getting all these opportunities. Pity for the pathetic?

    i seriously don't understand why anyone, much less apparently everyone, thinks its ok that this is still her default song. she really does need to go to rehab, right? we can all agree on that? and we're gonna do some backup dancing and sing along with this song? who the fuck am i though? i'm sittin' here bopping along for sure …

    I think she sounded GREAT! Except for still being too thin she looks healthier than she has for a while. Please,Amy,get it together for all your fans but mostly for yourself. We love you!

    Amy Whino is so last year. Duffy is the new Amy. Except not drugged out and she doesn't look like a Horse's skull.

    Amy Winehouse will either go into rehab or to jail.
    She should clean up and make a new album.

    At least Amy made an effort to clean up her act…it looks like she had a wash…though you can never tell till you have a smell…..women can cover up so much with a wig, make-up and perfume.

    Don't worry - she punched someone after she sang at Glastonbury last night and now she's back in hospital for a looooong rest / detox. Apparently the fan was trying to grab her beehive as she went past, but I don't believe it - perhaps they just thought they were being attacked by something mangy and were trying to fend it off?
