Wanna a Free iPod Courtesy of Amy Winehouse?

No really! If you can predict the date and time of Amy Winehouse's death you can be the proud owner of a brand spanking new iPod Touch.

Matty the Damned would like to thank Cliff for jogging his memory about this. :)

Amy Winehouse is an English singer, drunk, crackwhore and soon to be corpse. Think of her as Britney Spears but with talent.

Her official site.

Think of it like this. When she dies, if you've picked the date and time you can play her music on your new iPod Touch!

Everybody wins!!

She certainly seems to be hell bent on self destruction.  I'm sure the press constantly hounding her like a bunch of animals helps as well.  It's a shame really because her voice is amazing and her last album back to black was one of the best i've heard for a while.  People are actually going to enter that competition aren't they!

I just can't criticize these people.  I've certainly had my own messy moments... publicly even.  As in laid out on the middle of a dance floor full of 1,000 people, with the music shut off and the DJ shining a light on me... all during the Millennium celebration.

Horribly embarrassing, but it had been a long night and I think my Kaletra doubled the effects of everything that year.  I'm sure I had 3 different drugs in my body and an assorted array of alcohol.

In my defense, I was dressed very nicely.

I can't believe that such powerful voice comes out of what appears to be an emaciated, drug ravaged, jewish, drag queen. 

Her blackcent is on the money too.  The first time I heard her, I was totally thinking motown...

I was never sure who Amy Winehouse or Britney Spears were until they started showing up on my News page.  I never read any of the articles... but, I did recently receive a free iPod, left by vandals in the neighborhood cemetary.

If my neighbors do not see me for a few days or if my dog barks, and sometimes if my dog does not bark, they get concerned for my health and come over.  I told George about the iPod, he told the police and they have a free iPod.

Does anyone have a link on the talents (or lack of) of either Amy Winehouse or Britney Spears?  I are curious ;D

One of Amy Winehouse's songs is linked in this post I made a little while ago.

Jews can't sing?  I'd love to hear an elaboration on that finer point.  Have at it.

Amy Winehouse is brilliant.

As for taking lots of drugs, having fun and surviving stakes, she puts poor little heath to shame.

I used the word "Jewish" as an adjective.  Let's look at Amy Winehouse for a moment...

Emaciated - check
Drug ravaged - check
Jewish - check
Drag Queen - (while she is a genetic female, her 300lbs of make up and campy attire are certainly drag queenesque) - check

Where did I suggest that Jews can't sing?  Barbra Streisand is Jewish and apparently can sing.  While I find her songs to be garbage and vocal tone to be grating and irritating at best, millions of others disagree.

Hey Youth Pastor Tim,

Thank you for the link.  I believe if I was listening to the radio, I would have liked her more better.  I believe I will refrain from the free IPod offer as it may be too difficult to collect.  Speaking of drug ravaged singers, I believe Janis Joplin would be almost 60 by now and not too long ago Nick Gravanites recorded lyrics to Buried Alive in the Blues.  He performs almost every Friday night in a club in Occidental.  Have the best day

Indeed, and to think when I was 16 I fantasized about Barbra, Then I saw Yentel,- I completely went off her from that moment on.

They tried to make her go to rehab
Now, she's gonaa go, go, go...

http://www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/Music/01/24/winehouse.rehab/index.html

I seriously hope for the best for this gal.  I'd love to see her pull through.  I personally think she's got some amazing talent.

Let's see one actually end up shining out for a change.  That would be refreshing.

Sorry, but that tabloid cover of Whitney's crack crazed bathroom at the height of her messiness still wins.

While I was in the clinic last time I kept singing (lightly, of course) "they try to make me go to rehab.. i say NO NO NO..."..  ;D I wonder what my therapist was thinking though..

But "Back to Black" has to be one of the best pop CDs of last year. Lets hope no one gets the iPod, and there are many cases that publicly messed up popstars do manage to survive.. and become boring..

Courtney Love (apparently clean now), (lesser known in the US but big in the UK) Shaun Ryder of Happy Mondays (who's also clean now), Pete Doherty, formerly of the band the Libertines and currently dating the also publicly self-destructive Kate Moss, both still going in and out of rehabs
