That's my opinion on her too. She's not really my cup of tea but I do like Back to Black, I just think it's ridiculous that people are still harping on about her being a trainwreck when she's been a trainwreck for the past, what, four years? She's barely done anything new musically in the past four years to my knowledge and it's just sad to see someone become more notorious for their problems than for their talent, when she is a very talented woman. But as others have said, some people don't want help and some people can't be helped, I'm not sure which of those two she is but I disagree with Eoin (I think it was) who said he hopes the press leave her alone - I think that might send her into an even worse frame of mind if she thinks everyone's forgotten all about her, depends on her perception of her own image I guess. She's tragic and I think she needs to be forced to go away for a very, very long time.
