Love It! December 1, 2008 This is probably one of the best CD's that I have bought in a very long time. Her music is unmatched and soulful. Her lyrics are very down to earth and honest. Some may find it crude but I think it's a story told just "as is". I just wish Amy could get her act together, because I for one would love to see her around for a long, long time.
I Love this CD! November 17, 2008 While her personal life may be a mess this CD couldnt me more polished and wonderful. Its like listening to a lounge singer from the 30's. It was quick shipping and came in perfect condition. LOVE IT!
AWESOME WINE.... October 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This CD is awesome. I cannot stop listening to it. Her soulful voice just touches something deep inside every woman. From the sad and mournful, LOVE IS A LOSING GAME to the taunting tease of YOU KNOW I'M NO GOOD, she touches every emotion. BUY THIS CD!
I love it October 2, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I absolutely adore this album. I am not too crazy about Amy Winehouse herself and her real-life rehab experiences but this album is just amazing. All the songs are so heart felt, so real, so full of emotion. I prefer some of the less popular songs to the ones that had huge commercial success.
Forget all the dissection...it just sounds so damned good. September 24, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have grown so weary of people dissecting this album for flaws, repetitive beats, retro-ness, and the like. And I am especially sick and tired of people confusing this amazing artist's life with her art. Is Van Gogh's work any less important, or is it in any sense less amazing, because he had such bad emotional problems that he cut off his ear and shot himself in the chest twice--killing himself at 36? NO, NO, NO!
I don't care how the artist, producers, button pushers, chalkboard scrapers, or anyone else involved in the making of the recording achieved the sound when it is this amazing. In my estimation, what really matters at the end of the day, is the way an album sounds, and this one is off the charts!
The songs on this album run the gamut from suicidal to exhilarated, playful to provocative, old school to new school, fawning to tempting, without ever skipping a beat. And then there is that voice--like Etta James, Billie Holliday, Bettye LaVette, and all The Supremes rolled into one beautiful ear candy confection---chased with a shot of tequila. And did I mention that she has the swagger and in-your-face attitude of another uniquely original artist--Madonna. I realize they are worlds apart musically, but the presence and panache that they both exhibit are what makes me draw the parallel. For better or worse, Amy has the f-you attitude that Madonna had when she was starting out. Say what you will about this woman, but there is no one else like her, and this album proves it in spades!
