You have to make your own decisions about who you think deserves your attention regardless of their behaviour.
The Eagles,(Don and Glenn), seemed to have straightened out, James Taylor most assuredly did, and The Stones?...Well, except for writing some GREAT songs, they are still The World's Luckiest Bar Band in my humble opinion.
Of course the jury is still out on Winehouse, (will she or won't she?), but to be honest, with women to listen to like Feist, Dala, Kreviazuk, Sass, Kathleen Edwards, Haley Sales, Suzie McNeil, the Sarahs, Red Light Riot, Amanda Marshall, etc...Ms. Winehouse is not exactly on my lst of 'must haves' at this moment.
Shouldn't it be 'Whine-house"?

Yikes!!!
Do I have to dump my Hendrix, Who, Zeppelin, Stones, Replacements, Steve Earle and your beloved Eagles records??? I'm sure my hard earned dough bought plenty of hard drugs and hard liquor for those boys. Since when did character have anything to do with talent or great art? Or, as someone once said, "Pablo Picasso was a fucking asshole." That Guenica thing's still pretty cool though... ;-)

I LOVE the way Michael Jackson dances...but I wouldn't let him step foot on my lawn.
"Talent is no excuse"
I know dozens of female singers as good as Winehouse that are 100 times the person she is. Everytime she gets your hard earned money in a royalty check, rest assured it's paying for booze, drugs, or whatever she uses to make her hair look like she hasn't washed it in a month. She be Waaaay to smug for me...good voice, or not.

Because it's over-affected (not effected) histrionics. Sorry. Pass.
