So incredibly sad to see a woman of such amazing talent derailed by drugs. It's like a tragedy unfolding right before our eyes. Nothing we can do stop it. It's all up to Amy but its like she's been so long at the bottom of the abyss that she doesn't even remember the fall. My heart breaks whenever I hear this woman sing.

Abi, this isn't the nineteenth century, for crying out loud. She's high, not crazy, there's a difference. - and just as I was writing this post, Amy came on the radio, singing Back to Black, covering my arms in goosebumps. Had to turn it up and rock this house! GOD, she is AMAZING!!! Sectioned? Abi, this isn’t the nineteenth century, for crying out loud. She’s high, not crazy, there’s a difference.

BTW, I didn't agree with all of it, that's why I changed it. I've always admired Jaybird's posts, I don't believe in being a robot, but he/she echoes a lot of what I think of Winehouse. I think rottenkitty has some valid points, too, albeit a bit harsh and judgmental. As I've said in the previous intro, this is from another poster, not me. I posted it because it was a balanced view of Winehouse's situation. Thank you for liking my handle! Here it is!: I think that Amy knows she is not in a state to perform. I think she knows she is not performing well, but she HAS TO do these shows. She is under contract. Fans may feel cheated, but I think she also feels bad for cheating them when she knows she can't be in top form at the minute. She needs time away to get better. She can't just fix everything overnight, but she is aware that she needs to, and I think she will. And I am not buying in to the whole attitude of giving up on Amy. This whole situation reminds me of something said by Edie Sedgwick's brother. After Edie went to rehab and finally got clean she came to visit him. He told her he was so impressed that she got clean because he didn't think she could do it. He said that he could also see something in her eyes shatter, and a week later she was dead. What motivated her was knowing that people believed in her and that failing would let them down. I feel that I will always believe Amy can get better, and that everyone around her should too. That way she will feel guilt when she can't live up to that. That is why I like that she gets to go places with Dionne, it shows her that falling off the wagon could cost her that precious relationship. If everyone just gives up and her, and waits for the worst, than that is only helping her fall harder and faster. I really do think that patience and support will get Amy through this. I have all the time in the world for Amy to get things right. This is for Snowblood, the original post. BTW, I didn’t agree with all of it, that’s why I changed it.

As this is the level of discourse you're going to indulge in -- "You're a poopy butt. Nyah nyah nyah" -- I will clarify MY point, as you obviously can't discern it. People with talent who squander that talent by abusing drugs past all reason are not tragic figures. They're JUNKIES. I don't care how much you might adore her music -- she's a junkie. And to make matters worse -- it appears that she's a meth head junkie. That's the bottom of the barrel by any standard. Perhaps you should educate yourself about meth abuse. It's a hideous downward spiral that will likely end badly. And no, I most certainly don't wish a terrible end for Miss Winehouse, but I will not paint her as Ophelia when in reality, she's Nancy Spungen. And for the record, if people are crusted with dirt (see every picture above) and clearly haven’t bathed because they're too busy tweaking -- they probably smell. Snowblood,
