Father

Amy's father haunts her like a nightmare.

Her father had an extramarital affair when she was young, and the divorce of her parents led to a big change in Amy's temperament when she was young, smoking, tattooing, drinking, and fooling around with men. And what did his father say about it? "I was a coward, but I felt that Amy was over it pretty quick." A but, the responsibility pushed cleanly.

After Amy and Blake broke up for the first time, he was drinking too much. At this time, Amy asked his father if he should go to rehab, but his father refused. Before Amy became famous, this might have been the best chance of recovery. After Amy and Blake overdosed on drugs, friends persuaded Amy to rest, but his father still insisted that Amy go on a foreign tour. And while Amy was recuperating in St. Lucia, his father was thinking about "talking about the next album" and "other business stuff."

The scumbag Blake certainly used and hurt Amy, but Blake's scum was written on his face, far less than her father, who squeezed, used, and sucked the marrow of Amy in the name of fatherly love.

Amy is weak in her bones and is very dependent on her father, hoping that his father can support her, protect her, and help her. And her father just used her again and again. When Amy, who was recuperating in St. Lucia, saw her father running over with a large number of photographers and agents, Amy really saw her father's face, and she was completely desperate. She loves her father, born and never changed. Unfortunately, her father is not worthy of love at all.

If her father was a responsible person, Amy would not have been Amy in the first place, and Amy would not have left in the end. In that way, there may be one less great musician in the world, but one more happy ordinary person.

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.
