Almost every negative post I've read on Audities > about Amy Winehouse has been a quick putdown. I've never read anyone who has explained why she > is not worthwhile. That is easy. I find her voice annoying, where others hear something positive and real, I hear someone who is trying so hard to sound soulful. I have listened to both albums, and while I have never seen her live, I have seen video footage online and on DVD. To my ears it all sounds like a put on, very affected. I have stated these reason before on the list. I do like the music and arrangements on her new CD, I just wish someone else was singing. michael ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals?
