While Amy Winehouse might not like the idea of being immortalized in wax, her parents seem to be lingering to whatever last glimpse of a sane daughter they can get.
When I saw the wax figure I was really disappointed with the wax sculptors at the world famous Madame Tussauds in London for not making it quite accurate. In the wax statuette Winehouse holds a mike. I think it should be replaced by a cigarette, bottle of booze or crackpipe. The wax figure took four and a ha... MORE
This is just such a dope track, that I thought you might want just dig it, I mean even if you have the album, still cool to just listen here at MOG.
"He left no time to regretKept his dick wetWith his same old safe betMe and my head highAnd my tears dryGet on without my guyYou went back to what you knewSo far removed from all that we went throughAnd I tread a troubled trackMy odds are stackedI'll go back to black We only said good-bye with wordsI died a hundred timesYou go back to herAnd I go back to.....

Amy Winehouse recently recorded a BBC One Session at Bayswater's Porchester Hall. I don't know if it has been broadcast in the UK already, but some delightful person, whose handle is UKGhettoPrincess, has posted the clips on YouTube. The sound and the visual are slightly out of synch, but both are of pretty good quality. So go and enjoy yourself silly. (You'll also see that Amy has moments of endearingly awkward stage dancing).

Love.
Have a good Sunday morning :)

Here's a rousing rendition of Miss Winehouse's "Back To Black" from Island labelmates The Rumble Strips recorded for UK Channel 4's Transmission show.
What do you think, Amy lovers ?
My mom and brother have made long, long trips from their locations to visit me for the holidays. We've never been big on Christmas, but it's good to have all three of us together (for the first time since summer 2005) and have them check out how I live. Anyway, my mom couldn't exactly be called someone who is knowledgeable about or has a particularly discerning taste in music. So it's been a pleasant surprise to hear her ask "Who is this? I like it!" when Amy Winehouse, El... MORE
