Amy Winehouse . . damn!

I've seen the press she's gettin and she may have been discussed here already . . but damn . . she's pretty good! I'm only just checking her out on You Tube. Think Back to Black is the best song I could find musically except for Do Me Good which is very Billie Holiday like. Her lines in F*** Me Pumps are very succinct and mostly all rhyme. To do this and paint a portrait this well can't be easy. That's kinda of what I think she does. Like character studies. In Rehab, which I didn't much like musically, I see that underneath her line "I would rather stay home with Ray" her character knows the inevitable but defiantly won't yet accept it. There is vulnerability there. I think she's a pretty sharp cookie. Maybe major.

BACK TO BLACK is also a great music video that I really enjoy and think it's her most promising song as well.
