No one thinks that this is an ACT and that the unintelligible lyrics are part of it. The band follows the "drunken" slowdowns. She hits the lyrics on the choruses. As such, I think the performance works, in that it's in character.

hands down one of the WORST female vocalists of all time, bitch is wack as hell period & fugly to boot...
I cant front, I think shes a pretty gifted vocalist. Shes got a god given voice, when shes not fucked up. I dont care for her music all that much, but she is definitly talented.
Got to say though, pretty surprised to see all the winehouse hatin on here. For one, she's two album's deep into her career, both being good efforts. Her last being close to perfect to my ear. Like it or not, probably the best album to come out of the Daptone studios. Only thing close being Dap Dippin. Another thing to keep in mind is her vocal styling is from the Anita Baker mold of R&B. So it's kinda of an aesthetic. That being said though, that video is still horrible and unacceptable for a performance. Really hope she cleans herself up and we don't lose her.
I would urge the haters to listen to her last album again.

You sound new. Soulstrut doesn't want to hear little dudes tell it that its taste could be wrong! It is likely that you have offended the Soul Strut!
haha, thought that would hit a nerve with someone. telling you though, there's magic on that album.
No there isn't. Her music is refried R&B. There is absolutely nothing new with Amy Winehouse. In fact, her existence makes me angry because she's allowed to cash in on the ideas of people who should be getting credit for her work. Fuck her and anyone who likes that shallow shit. Everytime I see her fuck up, it makes me happy.
Winehouse in the doghouse after 'atrocious' tour debut Troubled soul singer Amy Winehouse kicked off her 17-date tour with a shambolic performance that saw fuming fans booing and marching out, reports said Thursday.
The concert at the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham, was a chance for the 24-year-old to get back to singing and put her woes behind her.
Winehouse has had "health issues" -- widely reported to be drug and alcohol abuse -- and her party-loving husband Blake Fielder-Civil is being held on grievous bodily harm and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice charges.
But Wednesday's gig at the NIA, which can hold up to 13,000 people, was slammed by angry fans as a "disgrace" after she turned up late and stumbled about the stage.
When punters started jeering, Winehouse snapped: "Let me tell you something. First of all, if you're booing, you're a mug for buying a ticket.
"Second, to all those booing, just wait till my husband gets out of incarceration -- and I mean that."
The Birmingham Mail newspaper's music critic Andy Coleman said it was "one of the saddest nights of my life".
"I saw a supremely talented artist reduced to tears, stumbling around the stage and, unforgivably, swearing at the audience," he wrote.
James Dyas demanded his money back, according to London's Evening Standard newspaper.
"She came on stage half an hour late. She managed four songs but was slurring her words and swaying all over the place," he said.
"She fell into the guitar stand and dropped the microphone -- it was atrocious. The song dedicated to her husband was so bad it was like swinging a cat round your head."
An, from Birmingham, commented on The Times newspaper's website: "Her singing was awful, out of tune and slurred. She sang for around 50 minutes -- drinking throughout.
"I have never seen so many people leave a show. 'Valerie' was my favourite song -- she massacred it!"
Pete Massera, from north-west England, added: "It was an absolutely atrocious gig. I, like many others in the audience, got our coats and left before she even finished the set."
Gary Atwell, from nearby Rugby, said "streams" of fans walked out, according to the BBC website.
"I went out for a sneaky cigarette half way through and at least 40 people left, just in that five minutes," he said.
"Valerie", the closing number, descended into chaos when Winehouse stopped singing, dropped the microphone and walked off stage.
Winehouse, named best British female solo artist at the Brit Awards in February, has rarely been out of the newspapers in recent months due to her lifestyle issues.

B-b-but wait, it gets worse...
I've stuck up for her in many of the previous Winehouse threads, and I still do believe her to be potentially one of the major talents of her generation, but on this evidence, girl is truly lost.
