AMY WINEHOUSE: SAD SIGHT FOR SORE EYES

There is no secret that Amy Winehouse is a troubled but a highly talented artist. It is fair to say that Winehouse has one of the best voices to be heard in the last decade, but her attempts to revive her career has gone from bad to worse. Winehouse was scheduled to perform in Belgrade, Serbia for 70 minutes (which she was able to do), but the manner in which she did so has lead people to dub her performance as her worst performance ever. Winehouse appeared on stage seemingly intoxicated, she stumbled around while singing and appearing to remove her shoes, throwing it at the crowd. Winehouse's management had ban the hotel and all local alcoholic providers from providing Amy Winehouse with alcohol, but it appears that she was still able to get her hands on  some sort of alcohol or drug that proved costly for her performance. Concert attendees have stated that Amy Winehouse was clearly incapable of performing and that she was unable to fully sing any of her songs during the 70 minute performance. Even more disappointing was the fact that tickets cost her fans £35, which was considered expensive being that the average wage in Serbia was £274 a month. The concert organizers are conducting a probe into how Winehouse was able to attain the substance that she consumed and are considering legal action against the hotel if they can prove that the hotel were the providers of the alcohol. The concert organizers were also worried that Winehouse would seek full payment for her performance. In actual fact, Amy Winehouse has refused payment for her dreadful performance, but it offers little conciliation for the fact that her reputation has been further damaged around the Globe. The Serbian defense minister,  Dragan Sutanovac has even branded the events as shameful and disappointing. It seems that Winehouse's management have taken initiative to cancel her next two performances in Istanbul and Athens, in order to let the jazz singer re-cooperate. Music Box Talk wonders whether she will be ready for her next scheduled performance in Spain on July 8th. We may not be experts in the field of rehabilitation, but from what we see, it maybe worth her cancelling her whole tour in order to fully recover because there is nothing more demoralizing than an artist with a great voice singing with a shot voice. It wouldn't be fair to the Music Box Talk faithful if we didn't paint a full picture of the performance in Belgrade, so her it is:


We love Amy Winehouse here at Music Box Talk and wish her a speedy recovery
