Yeah, Jade Goody was so unlucky not to be regarded as high up as alcoholics and smackheads.

They just lead totally different careers, and Amy's just happened to be a more respected one.

That is such a childish comment, especially remembering this is a thread about Amy Winehouse. You don't have to rubbish one dead person in order to big-up another.

This thread could go round in circles for ever...

I personally have always just thought of this whenever I have seen/heard Amy...

Youtube video

However, regardless of whether people appreciated her talent or agreed with her lifestyle, she is still somebody's baby whose life has ended far too soon. I hope her loved ones find peace and have lots of good, happy memories of her.

One of my favourite episodes

Anyway, shut up about Jade. This threads about Amy.

and Omah you still mention Jade all the time so ironic that you imply she's forgotten about.

Fame at that point of Jades life really wouldn't have meant much. Especially with the way she looked in her latter stages.

Im sure she was far more concerned with how they would deal with it. It must have been heartbreaking for her knowing they had to grow up without her.

Making money for their security was pretty much all she could do for them at that stage. Thats why she worked her ass off even when she was sick and looked awful.

Yeah she was greedy for money to spend from her grave! You obviously have no clue about a Mothers love and clearly can't even be bothered to even try and imagine it.

All she cared about in her dying days was doing evrything she could for them to compensate for them no longer having a mother. Which was to give them financially security. Even Jeff sings her praises as a Mother and backs up what I say.

You are just a hater with an agenda.

And why should she give to charities when she has two very young sons to provide for? They were her priority.

Are you looking in a mirror and talking to yourself when you wrote that last post Zippy.......seems you've done a fair bit of commenting about Jade in the thread when it suited you.

Old Blake refused special compassionate leave from jail to attend funeral yesterday. Not that he'd been invited anyway.

Mitch claiming that his daughter had been clean of drugs for 3 years.....

Ah, the biter bit .....

Funnily enough, that's what Goody used to do - accuse her "victims" of her own "crimes", e.g. "I hate liars", "I hate bullies", etc .....

The word 'Book' comes to mind for some bizarre reason!

Talking of such things; that'll be the next thing out probably - detailing her rise and fall.

I was puzzled what the meant at first. Just got it.


I like Winehouse and felt she was a musical legend, one that achieved great things and could have achieved so much more. It's a shame she got caught in the downfall of drugs.

No one knows that for sure. Perhaps what she had achieved was as good as she was going to get - perhaps that was her peak - no one knows - and certainly won't now.

According to reports; her father claims she had been drug free for 3 years. She didn't achieve much in the past 3 years, if there was any truth in Mitch's comment.

Just because she came off the drugs doesn't automatically make her mentally stable enough to throw herself back in front of millions of people and travelling all over the world promoting a new album. She obviously had other personal struggles not just drugs and wouldn't have phsically been able to cope.

Why do you have to try and debate everything? It's getting rather tedious now to be honest.

I did state that the opinion I had was how I felt. I believe she could have gone on to achieve greater things.

Because firstly, that is how subject such as this one on a forum work and my comment was how I felt (or is it only every one else that's allowed to do that on here, and not me).

Secondly - you will see I made a 2nd small paragraph which was opening up debate - regarding whether she has been drug free for x amount of years or not, as her father has been quoted as stating. You could have made comment on that rather than getting personal.

Would you prefer I did what Shaun did earlier? Put up a pesonally sarcastic comment to another member, which apart from being completely off topic, you thought was worthy of you replying to with a big grin - before that comment was removed?

I would prefer to be able to have an opinion for once without having to have to contend with your opinion against it. I understand this is a forum, free speech and all, but doesn't mean you have to respond to everything all the time in a manner which sometimes is very baiting. As for the comment Shaun made, I'm not gonna lie, I did find it funny. Am I not allowed a sense of humour now?


Back on topic, I still believe that Winehouse could have gone on to greater things had she cleared herself up.

The kooky American, who admitted she didn’t know the British soul icon, made her appeal while talking about the Back To Black singer.

The 25-year-old Judas singer said: ‘It's a lesson to the world. Don't kill the superstar, take care of her soul.’

Gaga also said she loved Amy ‘so much’ and revealed that she used to get mistaken for the soul singer before she became famous.

Speaking about Amy, who died on Saturday, Lady Gaga said: ‘I was nobody when she was first coming out. I would be on the street and people would go "Amy"'.

Jeez, that's typical of the current wave of opportunistic "grieving" .....

the dad seems to be talking a lot of bollocks

Aisleyne Horgan Wallace was on This Morning earlier talking about her "friend" Amy. Such a friend that she wasn't even invited to the funeral.

I have never been "invited" to a funeral. I have gone along to pay my respects, but I have never been formally invited. I don't think not attending someone's funeral - especially as the service was Jewish and Aisleyne, I'm fairly sure, isn't - doesn't mean they weren't friends. People pay their respects in different ways, and it's a bit strange to judge someone so harshly when you have no idea of the facts.

Aisleyne is making out like she's been best friends with Amy for years though, if she had been such a best friend then surely she would be at the funeral. It just seems to me like she wants to make a bit of money by going on national TV to talk about Amy.
