Do you feel Amy Winhouse deserves the *Icon status* , or is was she _overhyped_ ?
icon!!!!
Icon
Totally overhyped… she was talented but also a tramp.
Although I know the question was purposely worded that way to boost engagement, my reflexive response is to wonder if you forgot to watch your own documentary that you would ask such a stupid fxxking question. (Sorry.)
Icon!!!
Slightly chubby??? Amy was NEVER chubby. She was healthy and then sickly skinny suffering from an ED. This is WHYyyy women get ED'S from men spouting BS like this!!!
Why is it so difficult for this generation to write out the words eating disorder?
@@selinakyle2368YT probably banned words that explicitly allude to mental illness.
My sentiments exactly what a disgusting comment to make 😵💫
Hold on right there..
You need to remember he's talking early 2000's this is 20 years ago size 0 times love.
I remember thinking she had normal late teen baby fat at the time compare to those Kate Moss and Geri H whom looked absolute skeletal.
The man said slightly chubb ( for the heroin chic era) not fat. Chill.
Exactly. Idi t
This is the best documentary about Amy, because it sidesteps the tabloid sensationalism and focuses on her gift, and what she was able to do with it. It honors her by taking her seriously. Rest In Peace. Thanks for what you gave us.
agreed. you phrased this perfectly.
@@zonk35 Thanks. Appreciate your reply.
Since Amy was Jewish “may her memory be a blessing” is more appropriate. “Rest in piece” is for Christian decedents. Thank you for the tribute.
@@cremetangerine82 Meh. We're secular Jews. We don't care about that stuff - and plenty of my religious relatives don't either. Also, it's peace not piece.
@@cremetangerine82 I'm Jewish. Rip isn't offensive. We believe everyone who is passed on is "resting " in Abraham's bosom.
I cant get over that man around 7:00 who calls amy slightly chubby - not that being chubby is bad, but amy never was chubby! always a thin girl
Though she did have a fuller figure back then, to call that even ‘slightly’ chubby is an overstatement, I agree… she just looked healthy.
I came to look for this comment because I thought I was trippin 😮
Context: This was the size zero era, most of female Hollywood and singers were influenced by their ever shrinking female peers. So Amy was exposed to those female body trends to look tiny.
She was an old soul....it's like she had lived multiple lives before the one we saw
Mmm there's this weird thing in a person life where they have already wrote 10 chapters and then people walk in on chapter 11 and make all these assumptions about who they are based on that one chapter.
❤AW❤There was something abt her ❤❤❤😮
Amy spoke music fluently. She felt it; she lived it. Wish she was still here.. Her insecurities were, I think, what killed her in the end. Tough on the outside, very vulrenable on the inside. RIP Amy.
Since Amy was Jewish, “may her memory be a blessing” is more appropriate. “Rest in piece” is for Christian decedents. Otherwise, that was a lovely tribute, thank you.
@@cremetangerine82 Thanks for responding. I'm not affiliated with any religion, and I'm embarrassed to find out that "rest in peace" could be viewed as inappropriate. Thanks for pointing this out-It's never too late to learn.
@Joyce Geertsma I'm Jewish and RIP is NOT offensive at all!
@@beautyonabarnbudget Thanks for your kind response Beauty. ❤
@@cremetangerine82peace, not piece
"a drawling purr with a little bit of acid" perfect description of her singing
Amy Winehouse was amazing singing and writing her own music. Her phrasing made the songs so believable. Loved her.
She definitely deserves icon status...she delivered the attitude, the talent, energy, humor, her voice is undeniably Amy. Love her 💗
Back to black was all about Blake and the break ups it was hard for her to sing them without feeling the pain she was in while writing them.
Back to Black in my head has always been called Back to “Blake” …
Amy Winehouse chose to sing with a REAL band, not electronic sound without heart and soul. Her voice, words, presentation were sincere. She did, in her style, remind me of Ronnie Spector who was also amazing.
Who doesn't sing with a band?
@@beautyonabarnbudgetmost artists don’t sing with a band
@@beautyonabarnbudget😢😢
The sad part of Amy’s downward spiral is the way her band performs. In the beginning they played with such joy and pride to be bringing the uniqueness of jazz to the masses. They when she hit her low the band played with their heads low. They don’t want to even look at the audience because they are a shame of the train wreck in the front of the stage.
I love the end of this documentary because it ends on such a high of "she's brilliant." What I hate a lot about a lot of youtube comments or press/media in general they focus on her faults, and that often happens with people who wear their heart and emotions on their sleeves but the truth is no matter how much you criticize her you will never be as brave as she was. And that goes for any artist being critiqued for that matter. You. Will. Never. Be. As. Brave. As. Her. So all of this "oh she's a wreck!" is for the birds and the beehives
I never paid attention to Amy when she was alive. I usually wait till the fad wears off. She absolutely had talent and it was heartbreaking to see her before she passed. So many people around her and not many people tried to help her pull of from her downward spiral. Such a waste.
I love the way fellow musicians contextualise her as an artist in this doc 👌🏼❤
When you have suffered mental health issues you understand and can relate to her but I wasn’t a fan of her music but I do now because finally listen to it now I am understanding the lyrics.
An old soul of talent I love blues and jazz but wasn't turned on to her before her untimely passing , what a shame RIP
Since Amy was Jewish “may her memory be a blessing” is more appropriate. “Rest in piece” is for Christian decedents.
@@cremetangerine82Again? Rest in peace, not piece
Like many of these iconic superstars who die too young, they have deep seated, unresolved issues.
The emotion and lyrics attached to the songs are relateable to many, as each issue might touch someone's soul....
The music industry isnt classified as Sex, Drugs, RocknRoll for nothing....
While lesser drug/alcohol use can release creativity, deeper addiction/abuse pulls them into the black hole of self destruction....
Addiction is still very misunderstood and not as easy to treat as most think...
Theres the physical side, but the psychological side is The Minefield....
Addiction is a Tragedy....
Regardless of how she sadly passed, her Music and Voice are an amazing legacy.....
I HOPE SHE RESTS IN ETERNAL PEACE....
Bulimia and
Bless her ❤
Amy winehouse was original but highly influenced. Esther Phillips Ive only known a stranger" really let me see Amy influences were deeper than I thought. Not only are the vocals phrasing, instrumentation and the feeling in the song clearly influenced Amy. Or at least my thoughts. The lyrics also seem like it speaks to her life.
Amy was truly one of a kind. I heard Paloma Faith sing Only Love Can Hurt Like This and cried because Amy would have brought the roof down with it. It's a great song and I love Paloma's voice but I'd sell several organs to be able to hear her sing it. One of the only artists of recent decades that I truly, truly miss and mourn. I probably will for the rest of my days.
This channel is a blessing. I subscribed right after watching the lengthy documentary about Brian Wilson and I am definitely eager to discover the precious testimonies on Amy in this one. Thanks for the incredible work.
Such a relief to find an Amy documentary about her art, not all that repetitive tabloid junk.
Nothing here that wasn’t explored in the AMY documentary on HBO which actually did a deeper dive on her life, but this was still a good overview of her career. She was such a unique talent. It’s a shame how she was destroyed by addiction.
It always astonishes me when looking back on her career, how heathy she looked at the beginning but then rapidly deteriorated after reaching the height of fame. Though Amy was responsible for her own choices which led to drugs, drink and subsequent addictions BFC was absolute trash. I don’t know if she loved him or if it was more that she was addicted to him and mistaken that for true love. It was a toxic relationship that played a huge role in her undoing.
Do I think she deserves icon status? I don’t know. Icons are usually widely admired and hold significant influence over a specific discipline. I think she is/was admired for her talent but unfortunately wasn’t around long enough to have an impact on the industry like an Elvis, MJ, Whitney, etc. Still her talent cannot be denied and should be celebrated.
Never seen this documentary. Thanks for upload ☺
❤Wonderful voice& great music,she will never be forgotten! Rip Amy! !!
think amy was somewhat of a sponge , she almost changed to sound like what ever she was listening to at the time , if she listened to dorris day her vocal reflected that ... how could she not be an icon ...you take a silhouette of amy .most people could tell you who it was .. he vocals cant be mistaken for anyone else ..and her writing for me is where i dont think she gets enough credit ... love is a losing game , genius writing ,its the perfect song .. unholy war , amazing love song ..i could be here all day making the point ... any musician worth there salt knows amy was a gifted musician , her understanding of time and ability to weave a lyric around a melody .and at the time she was going against the grain , carved her own path ... icon .think its more legend ... we all know how her ending happened but drink drugs and all that crap aside , when amy was on point its was plain to see her genius .. shy girl at heart and a sad loss to us all and all that loved her music ... doubt we will see the likes again ..
❤❤❤
This girl died in love with a broken heart 💔. My ex wife loved this girl alot with a few more
Stummingly beautiful in every way. Still saddens me that we never got to hear more of her incredible talent ❤xxx
Gone way to soon. RIP Amy
Since Amy was Jewish “may her memory be a blessing” is more appropriate. “Rest in piece” is for Christian decedents.
Just recently discovered Amy Winehouse on UA-cam. WOW ! What a talent ! i, like so many others are very saddened that she died at such a young age.. But actually, we all die at some point and so many Great talents are gone.. Billie Holiday and so many others. Perhaps she wasn't meant to live a long life. She achieved so much of what she wanted.. fantastic success in her music career, a man who she obviously loved deeply, loving parents and family, world wide fame and adoration and on and on.. What was there left for her ? Thank God she left us with an incredible body of work and many, many videos to enjoy. But just the same, i am saddened every time i listen to her or watch a video.
Эми это высший класс!!!!!джазовый голос ее не забудешь!Эми не с нашей планеты!❤️❤️💎🎤💋
Gone to soon love and miss Amy Winehouse still sad about her loss but i apricated this documentary it was such a wonderful with so much love and remarkable explanation of the music and i learned about another jazz cover song i can't wait to hear in its entirety.
A Magical Being! TY Amy! Love you dearly!
slightly chubby? dude 7:08
No wonder she lost so much weight. The world is brutal towards women’s bodies.
She was perfect. Same thing happened to Karen carpenter, lema zavaroni it's brutal
He is an idiot. I think she was drop dead gorgeous, a lovely sweet person who struggled to cope with people who were often so critical, blatently out of order with their comments about her, not thinking of how damaging these comments could be to her. Chubby? Really? She was as talented as Billie Halliday , Probably the greatest raw natural talent that's ever lived
For gay people maybe🙄
Amy é incontestavelmente a maior cantora da cena pop deste século. A poesia e a intensidade do sentimento da música dela são únicas. Ninguém que veio depois pode ser comparada a ela. Linda Amy Jade W.! Sempre será lembrada, sempre estará em nossos corações ! 💖👠💅💃💞💎🌎❤🇧🇷
A shining star so brilliant, so amazing, taken from us far too soon. I'm grateful for the chance to adore her, even if it was for just a moment.
Beautiful documentary. I love Amy to bits. She's so original when I heard her record Back to Black, I was blown away by it. Couldn't believe what I was hearing. It was THAT GOOD. 🖤💔❤️🔥 love always and forever ❤️ Amy.
Thank you for sharing this !
Frank is one of my favorites. And I love Soundgarden most. That should tell you something. Her cover of Cupid. Back to Black is always moving. Love is a losing game is perfect.
I remember her saying fame would drive her mad.
This is really a great, appreciating and respectful documentary❣️
I somehow got the feeling that most of the people who spoke here have not grasped that the drugs and alcohol made her so unpredictable
I love you Amy, my sis. I miss you so so much. 💝💋
Legend of a life story and a beautiful picture of a wonderful ❤️ and a lovely lady who is never forgotten to get ❤️ ♥️ out of my heart 😅it ♥️ ❤️ 💙 💖 💗 💜
it's really annoying hearing middle class white women talking about her this way - picking everything apart and analysing left, right and centre. amy would have hated this.
in some ways I see what you’re saying, but at the end of the day, those women are appreciating her gift and that is probably more than what Amy could’ve wished for.
I watched a brilliant Amy tribute act with Amy’s original band. It was just surreal but as you can imagine my heart longed for AMY 😭🖤
Powerful Amy
Wow...turns out she was very beautiful before meeting alcohol and drugs.I hope he rests there
❤Amy genial por siempre
the man from the band is a story on his own... I love him
Such. A. Perfect. Species. Of. A. Women perfect. Perfect. Everything her. Looks her. Body her. Personality
If she was sober she'd have been a legend
she is a legend.
I lived Amy Winehouse. If there was ever a human people should have tried to keep around, it was her. But they didnt.
I think more that she in the not so good performances looks as like she did not wanted to do the performance. She always seemed to be honest. At this scale of it's very great and risky to be always authentic. But she did, in my opinion. The little club performances were more fitting to her than the festivals. She was too often misunderstood and reduced to her drug problems unfortunately.
…and now, the final frame.
RIP, Amy.
Dude, you make me crying
Love is a losing game Amy will always win my heart .
It wasn't until after Amy died and I happened upon some of her music, that I took a closer look. I rather avoided any news of her when she was alive. SO much negativity, the drug use, the drinking, the toxic stumbling through life. Now, in death, the world is lending her a sympathetic hand, heralding her as an icon, so sad that she is "gone." And all the blame placed on Blake for causing her death as he reportedly introduced her to narcotics, a story misplaced blame and why, to explain Amy's rapid decline and death...? No one made her become an addict. Narcotics are everywhere; one person is not responsible for another's demise! It was her choice to numb all that ailed her with drugs and alcohol. I, for one, will try and celebrate her through some of her songs that I really like. All the rest is an intensely sad testimony to a life disrespected, both by Amy and the world.
It was released today and everyone is talking about it.
R I P Amy. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I didn't like the comments of the commentator. He spoke very nasty of Amy
Imagine being forced to sing a song of your hearthbreak over and over
Love you most beautiful, Amy.
No brown chook or Angus cow, please.
Amy is a gorgeous, curvy woman. Behind the veil. She holds a higher ground now☝️ and can careless what f'ing idiots thought of her then and now. She left the destructive leaches from the past. Bless those that listen to the love from her voice she left us.🎵 Think positve thoughts of her and feel it.🌈 She is in a better place. A powerfful-beautiful spirit that is loved with the respect she deserves from the imperial realm. All angelic forces surround her. The Greats.👑🪽💫⚓️👁Peace & Love❤
❤
curvy?
@@jt305Yes curvy yes when Amy started with Frank and was her happy self 20 yr ago..
I fkn conic!!!!
THE WOMAN WAS ALSO #BAD VERY BAD FOR ALL THE #GOOD REASONS...
#SMOKETHATTHOUGHT!!
Chubby?
Wszyscy tylko liczyli kase jak widac na ostatn koncercie Emi sie wogole nie liczyla .Brawa dla niby kolegow z zespolu..
The guy who said she was chubby is off

Legend❤
her husband never loved her, just used and abused the sh*t out of her for his own gain and his ego! Shame on guys who act as if they own their women, and think is funny these girls love them for the idiots that they are, and not see it!!!!😥 I saw the same fate in Lisa Marie Priestley
What ! SHAME !!!!!😩... She did Not Make it !... Past her !...TWENTIES!!!!!!
Everyone in her life and around her let her down
How rude...she wasnt chubby!
Ohhh I so wish she didn’t go to where she went …such a wasted talented … would’ve been a superstar until her senior years… sigh
She. Sounded. More. Apoeling. Then. All. The. Jazz singers. Female. I. Heard. She. Sounded. More. Unique then. Badic. Jazz singers. Old. School. N. Modern
R. I. P TERRY HALL.
I love Amy and think she is an icon. But thanks to drink and drugs most of her Black to Black era performances are a mess.. Even when she holds it together you can tell she’s in a state. Even the Grammy performance (where she was allegedly clean and dry) still sounds like she’s not 100%.
Necesito que sea en español 😢
I will never understand why she didnt wear her naturalhair it was so pretty down. That messy undone beehive was hideous. Sad story she was so young. Rip Amy Winehouse.
How lovely she looked before the haystack hairdo and heavy makeup.
I loved both looks. Nothing wrong with a bit of body art
It's so sad that these artists that die too soon are not really recognized and respected until it's too late. She was so different and special. It's sad she didn't realize it. Hope she is no longer at torment.
It was hard to watch her decline in real time. Horrible
to watch
What a waste!
What I hated is that they spent so much of this on old bands. I WANTED TO HEAR AMY WHINEHOUSE NOT ALL WHAT THEY THINK BUT DAMN THIS IS ABOUT AMY!!!!?
They were her inspiration. This is a documentary about her talent and where the cultivation of that came from. Very relevant in my opinion
Its very good doc, it focused on music, roots, influence, inspiration
If you want more about Amy personally, look for “Amy”, 2015 documentary
Amy Winehouse was talented and a good singer but she doesn't sound like a BLK woman. Stop that. We have a 🦝 problem in our group, that would cosign that they thought she was BLK. There is 1 woman that genuinely sounded like a sistah, Tina Marie.
Everybody else is doing their best imitation.
What?? A gospel sound???? I don't think so!
She lived her life her way. She committed suicide because she could not stand life without Blake whom was innocent in jail for a very long time. I blame her tragedy on society.
You need a lot of skills to make jazz but the result is always horrible. Anyway, you get a lot of respect
Frank is a legitimately good album… what do u mean by the “result is horrible”
@@blahblahblah6898 the results from amy are much better than the rest
Oh, I wonder why you think that 🙄🤫
This was made before she croaked.
Lady Gaga today. Same voice, same look, same everything!!!
Gaga not a same she is just gaga ….
Gaga can only hope!
Gaga is an incredible talent in her own right so let’s not go there
