I did hear this new singer named Amy Winehouse I want to check out again.

Some of the more negative reviews of Winehouse's CD from Amazon:

"Ripping off real artists., August 14, 2007
By ADRIENNE MILLER (TENNESSEE) - See all my reviews Amy Winehouse is so freakin' ugly, how does she sell albums? A total druggie, alcoholic, and god how much does she weigh, 45 pounds? She is a terrible role model, she is just as bad as Lindsay Lohan. Winehouse can't sing, she thinks she is some rockin' soul singer from the 1960's but she isn't, she is just a wannabe. Take my advice and stay away from this over-rated album, but if you like to hear a troubled and pathetic woman whining about going to rehab which is where she is now, then this album should make you happy."

People really need to stop giving this album 5 star reviews., June 12, 2007
By Elias Ayres (San Diego) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME) "I cannot believe how low people's musical tastes have dropped over the past few years. This drivel is given over 100 5 star reviews!?!?!?! Are you serious!?!??! It isn't about how she compares with older R&B/soul divas (she doesn't) or how contrived and boring her lyrics are (Your going to rehab? congrats!!), the fact is that people like this album BECAUSE THEY WERE TOLD TO."

what the??!!!, July 17, 2007 By T.T. (MovieLand) - See all my reviews this girl is so ugly, and foul. an alcoholic and drugie. is that what we are praising today????????????! ok even if she has a substance abuse problem her manager should have gotten her cleaned up before bringing her out. all she's doing is ripping off the old, great artists. i can NOT belive she is even in the entertainment biz; someone took a chance on her. he/she was probably drunk or on drugs when he signed her up. plus she can't even sing!!!!!!!!!!!! she sounds like her name- a big rhinoceros trying to sing. did i mention she is so unattractive? i don't know what's worst: her looks or personality. maybe her looks. can't belive this is what is "hot" in music. seems like everyone needs to go to rehab! PLEASE!
Update-maybe i was being a bit cruel to go on her looks. i'm not a cruel person so i take it back. no one can help how they look. but seriously she should not be an artist! she needs to sort her life out first. i think she's a bad influence along with any other "open" druggie or alcoholic. it's like we are praising this behaviour. then when our kids are messed up we wonder where it came from.
