How we treat each other defines what we are as a society.
This one girl, Amy Winehouse, should be riding high.
She has 6 Grammy nominations for her "Black to Black" CD.
Arguably the greatest collection of jazz/blues pieces in one album, ever, by anyone.
But today she is under the control of known criminals.
Amy is addicted to cocaine and indulges public drug use.
Then, Tuesday, a faked statement from a Tracey Mitchell claimed medical treatment, no drug use, and family involvement.
Every item proved false.
Her mother and father say she was diagnosed bi-polar years ago.
Still, there is no effort underway, not even Involuntary Committal, for authorities to protect her.
Why is she not in slam ?
Today, Great Britain is doing as badly, for this girl, as George Bush has been with his "Iraqi Freedom."
Shared flaws are weak leadership and callous indifference.
Welcome to the Christmas season.
Brit police -- tired of this trainwreck "Rehab" druggie -- are letting her money go to the thugs, to be followed shortly by giving her lifeless or brain dead body to her parents.
Merry Christmas, England.
Photos and links below.
Her voice and lyrics astonish. Amy wrote the CD.
God have mercy on the English. (Similar to what we will need because of Iraq.)
This photo is Amy Winehouse, Wednesday evening in public. Totally wrecked. Family locked out. In the clutches of known criminals, including a charged woman-kicker named Pete Doherty. Cocaine powder up her nose.
Standard protocol is 90-day Committal. Voluntary rehab is bullshit.
Probably cause -- pressed with every tabloid in England....
These links give a flavor of Amy Winehouse's talent.
I'll give links instead of the embedding approach. Quicker downloads for this diary.
Love is a Losing Game - live at the Mercury Awards.
Valerie - unplugged - unique from 1:30 mark - worthy of La Scala.
The toxic Rehab song.
Eff Me Pumps -- for Londons barflys.
Hey Little Rich Girl -- a cockney hate-the-rich tune from The Specials.
Not one of her YouTube pages is blocked. Includes videos and concerts.
Not a drop of greed to this girl.
Amy presents friendly, good humor, family oriented and gets parents to big gigs, and totally loses it during performances. She is no whore, no fake. Common sense, not so much.
Musical gift ??? Judge for yourself.
