In many years past, I was taken aback and astounded at the incredulous decision to give Kim Carnes the top award for 'Betty Davis Eyes' over the award winning (how ironic) Winelight album featured song, 'Just the Two of Us'. I have never been so mad as that example of poor taste in award giving. So, it seems, do many people share my emotion of yesterday with their criticism of Winehouse's selection today. Things have a way of evening out over the years as I am quite happy for Amy. There is no question in my mind that she has demonstrated a superb and unique talent as a singer (that unfortunately has deteriorated in 2 to 3 short years due to drugs), an opinion which can be substantiated by looking at her youTube video of 'Teach Me Tonight' from 2005. I cannot imagine a 21 year old Ella, Billie Holiday, or any top jazz songstress at the beginning of their career singing that song as great as she did in front of a generic and somewhat 'wet behind the ears' big band. This is the foundation for admiration and adulation of Amy by her non-pop fans. (Did Kim Carnes even have older purist non-pop fans?)

Amy Winehouse's estranged husband Blake Fielder-Civil has apparently reached the point in his long climb up the 12 steps where he's making a list of the people he's harmed. At the top of that fearless moral inventory: His self-admitted mess of a missus, whom he says he turned into a drug-ravaged disaster zone.
"I dragged Amy into it and without me there is no doubt that she would never have gone down that road. I ruined something beautiful," the currently rehabbing jailbird tearfully but indiscreetly tells Britain's News of the World (listen to audio of the interview here). "Now I have to let her go to save her life. I am not abandoning her. I am doing this out of love."
No official steps have reportedly been taken to end their 18-month marriage, although Winehouse, 25, who remains hospitalized for a reaction to "medication" and has not seen her husband since he was released from his nearly yearlong stint in the pokey earlier this month, was quoted as saying last week, "It's over."

Guys...i just read this article and i was so f*cking shocked that i decided to post it there...lol! It's about Amy&Blake. It's said our girl has finally opened her eyes...
LET'S SEE...
Amy Winehouse is in secret negotiations with her lawyers about divorcing husband Blake Fielder-Civil, it has emerged.
Winehouse asked family members to speak to a solicitor — hours after her hubby’s release from prison.
The singer is afraid over the money Fielder-Civil will get from her estimated 10 million pounds fortune.
The latest twist in the couple’s 18-month marriage came just hours after Fielder-Civil asked Winehouse to pay his 30,000 pounds rehab fees. And after he said: “I am gonna see my wife and take her knickers down.”
Winehouse now refuses to see him while he is in rehab at the Life Works centre in Woking, Surrey. “The family saw a solicitor this week. Amy fears Blake’s just after her money,” News of the World quoted a source, as saying.
