Hey, if Tammy Wynette can sing “Stand By Your Man\*,” Amy Winehouse can keep singing “Rehab.”

- Tammy was married five times. :eek:

[QUOTE=Big Bad Voodoo Lou]  
She’s a very talented British soul singer. Her second album, _Back To Black_, is a really great homage to the Motown sound, and it would be very hard to tell you’re listening to a 23-year-old British Jewish ex-chav girl in 2007. Unfortunately, she seems hell-bent on committing suicide (and not just career suicide) due to her well-publicized substance abuse.

All that. Plus that the video above makes her look just like an embarassment compared to a well-publicised chainsmoking pisshead.

She seemed to be on good form at Glastonbury, though, through the delights of BBC Press The Red Button, and the Charlotte Church show was some time ago, right?

Anyway, I wish her well, and will continue to find _Back to Black_ an unsettling album, but not in a bad way.
