They are also completely pretentious to the point that they become nonsensical. "Soaked in soul he swims in my eyes by the bed" what did she smoke to come up with that lyric. Amy Winehouse is a sad mess. Also did I mention in an interview someone asked her if she liked Billie Holiday and her response was "Fuck her!" yeah she's eloquent too! She needs to learn respect and how to sing and for the record I AM ANGRY about it.
her sound isn't ...( 2 months ago by jalex11)
her sound isn't EXACTLY like Billie's, and any similarity is a coincidence because she dislikes Billie Holiday, she actually said "Fuck Billie Holiday"

Well I'm PRO-TALENT be it white, black, Blue or Green so shut up and stop disgracing Billie's legacy with your racist comments. Oh yeah and regarding soul Aretha Franklin is about as underrated as say ray charles who is WIDELY credited for INVENTING soul. Get over yourself.
I agree. People ...( 2 months ago by jalex11)
I agree. People don't seem to understand the idea of INTERPRETING a lyric. Covering a song with real emotion requires just as much if not more talent than writting a song.

My small opinion- she is the first soul singer meaning someone who touches something in your soul. I hate to rate people but she's been #1 on my list for atleast 20 years.

There probably were many other great singers before her. Unfortunately, there was no way of recording them. She had many ladies that she looked up to.
She was so gorgeous ...( 1 month ago by mikeygeneral)
She was so gorgeous. I would have dated her in a heartbeat. and so talented, but she just couldn't kick that fucking god damn addiction! Shame that she never had any kids! She was used and abused by so many for so long. I love you billie! always will. When was the last time i seen a girl with flowers in her hair? I thgink women should wear flowers in their hair. What ever happened to courting a woman?

I'm sorry if I said something terribly offensive. I haven't read her entire biography. I know she was from Chattanooga, had great voice, a very hard life and died in a very ugly way. A friend of mine tried to build a museum for her there but, it turned into a nightmare of political wrangling until it wore him out. Then, guess what? All the polictal activists who wanted to take over the action, never did.
They just disappeared. Still, no museum for Billie Holiday in her home town. Its sad.
