"Amy"

How long does it take to get to know someone? Sometimes it takes just one face to face, and sometimes it takes your whole life.
After 2 hours of reading this biography, I didn't realize that I wanted to give up from the very beginning. After reading her profile, the Grammy awards made me stick to it. Slowly I will enjoy the episodes, experience her life (as much as I can), lament her fate to associations, and in the end there is only silence and tears in my eyes.
Exceptions are not allowed among the general public. Being maverick will only make you the target of criticism. There is a special kind of person who is gifted and also loses some "common sense ability", just like a drug, you have to accept its pain while enjoying its pleasure. It seems that all artists are doomed to a tragic fate and special behavior. If it weren't for these "specials", they might not be remembered by us, just growing old alone in a corner.
Amy will treat love more simply than ordinary people when she loses her father's love. At this time, falling in love with the wrong person is a matter of course. All the passion and joy ends in the last sentence of the interview with Blake. Such special people are extreme, either full of affection or obsessive. There are no grey areas and no compromises.
Amy said at the end that she would rather not have this talent. Talent is destined to shine, it is only given to the wrong person. Amy can't strategize the two. While her music is at its extremes (though she doesn't care about it), desire pushes her into the virtual when real pleasure is at its extreme. Only drugs and alcohol do this. Amy started back and forth. Until the drunk, overwhelmed standing on the stage. The voices that once shouted are still there, and most of them are clamoring and mocking. Countless flashes, media reports, the departure of her lover, the proud queen is now just a helpless child.
Never saw Amy cry, she was rebellious, unruly, depressed. She is well-bred, and she is silent even if they are pointed out by thousands of people. It just exploded when it really couldn't bear it.
My poor girl maybe this is your best bet. If life teaches you to grow up like this, then go to that wonderful fairy tale world!

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.
