Amy is like a dazzling diamond, and no one can ignore her. This diamond used to be so radiant that when she was gradually losing its luster, people treated her like a stone on the side of the road. In this documentary, when I saw Amy for the first time, I felt that she could not be a person who is completely different. The languid aura exuded from her whole body is not laziness. Her eyes are always radiating light, and her body also has a huge energy, which was perfectly reflected in her later jazz career. In the first half of this documentary, Amy was appreciated, her career continued to rise, she was loved by thousands of fans, and the sisters around her have been supporting her. Everything went so smoothly, Amy got what others dreamed of, the director described everything so beautifully, and then the documentary continued, and all these beautiful things were torn to shreds.

Amy and Blake came together, this man would be by Amy's side, and when the two appeared in the spotlight together, Amy always held Blake's hand tightly, leaning against him, and he would also shield Amy from those horrors. Human spotlight. Amy has given all of herself to Blake, using broken glass to inscribe "I love Blake" on her belly, and she told reporters she did so with happiness and even pride on her face. When singing jazz songs, Amy is like a queen, like an elf who can flexibly control each note and her voice to express her emotions, but in front of Blake, she has completely become a bird enjoying the warmth of her arms , such a twisted state of love that makes Amy's later tragedies take for granted, while maximizing sympathy for Amy's plight, who gave her wholeheartedly. Blake is a villain who has given Amy the vices of taking drugs and alcohol, even using these tools to turn Amy into his meal ticket. Amy and him were drunk, and their careers took a turn for the worse, but Amy never thought about leaving Black, and even when going to the drug rehab center for compulsory detoxification, she did not refuse to be with Black. These vices let Amy live up to the public's expectations, and the media began to ridicule Amy with these vices as a starting point. Before her death, Amy said that her biggest dream was to "don't have these talents and walk on the road without any worries." But this dream has been in vain since then. What's even more tragic is that later Blake returned to his ex-girlfriend. In an interview, he said shamelessly to the camera: "I am a fucking handsome guy. During Black's release, Amy was forced to perform numerous repeat performances regardless of Amy's mental state. Amy got too little in return, paid too much, and lived too tired to live. It seems that she chose suicide later, which may also be her way of self-liberation. People will be saddened by her mistakes, but there must also be relief that she finally doesn't have to suffer any more. Family "Love", for Amy, is still a losing game.

Amy sitting on the Serbian stage

On the Serbian stage, Amy was like a frightened bird, pacing back and forth on the stage at a loss, reluctant to sing no matter what, a jazz singer who was considered a genius is now dumbfounded. Emotional expression, feeling everyone, but now she can't feel happy in music, the memories in the lyrics are like a dagger piercing her heart constantly, she doesn't want to sing anymore, because there is no reason. In the end, she had lost all hope and desire to live, and left this world covered in phosphate wounds. She went one step ahead of her family, lovers, fans, and everyone who had ever surrounded her, to another world where she would sing without worry.

Amy quotes

  • Yasiin Bey: I became aware of Amy in 2004. I'm a big jazz fan and I really liked what she was doing. I thought it was unique, I thought it was edgy. And sincere. And that's the thing I like most about Amy. She didn't have any airs. She was real... She was just a charming, sweet lady. I had a bit of a crush on her, to be honest. She was raw, she was fast with a blue joke, could drink anybody under the table, wasn't afraid to roll a smoke. Had a big, giant laugh, and was just a sweetheart, you know?

  • Amy Winehouse: Success to me is not success to the record company or whoever. Success to me is having the freedom to work with whoever I want to work with, to always be able to go to the studio when I have to go to the studio... I think the more people see of me, the more they'll realize that all I'm good for is making tunes. So leave me alone and I'll do it. I will do the music. I just need time to do the music.
