#Amy winehouse frank how to#
The image is of someone who likes Being-a-Girl but who knows how to keep up with The Lads There’s also an interesting picture of her rolling an invisible spliff (well, either that or picking a hair off her skirt but seeing as that doesn’t have quite the same iconicity, I’ve gone for the first interpretation). In ‘October Song’, she name-drops Sarah Vaughn and, in keeping with this, the booklet shows a nice glossy picture of Amy’s very credible and eclectic CD collection. ‘You Sent Me Flying’, sees Amy launching straight in with a reference to lending ‘Outsidaz’ and her ‘new Badu’ to a man she fancies (who we later learn wears Diesel jeans). I learnt that the box in ‘Take the Box’ contains the Moschino bra Amy’s ex bought her ‘last Christmas’.
(I also noted the presence of a song called ‘Fuck-Me Pumps’ and guessed this would probably have a naughty appeal to any play-it-safe fashion-sluts who want to make their collection a bit more ‘edgy’.) Looking through the lyrics, I found various trendy references. I first looked at this album back in October and noticed it was very well packaged and image conscious. Combe’s high-minded inclinations, though I would obviously need to investigate it (in the name of research, you understand). No, this was definitely not an album that appealed to Ms. So I wasn’t the slightest bit surprised when I first heard about those lyrics. If you want to impress your dinner party guests, shocking them with how refreshingly down to earth you are will work an absolute treat. Indeed, it is actually perfectly correct according to current fashion. Like Carrie from Sex and the City and her scathing witticisms about Conceptual Art, being ‘politically incorrect’ and impatient with anything alternative is the height of cool. Well, as I’ve said before, this tell-it-like-it-is (was) stuff is very now. This is the one where she berates a boyfriend who always puts her ‘in control’ and doesn’t ‘live up to his role’ as ‘The Man’. Winehouse released her new single ‘In my Bed’ in early April but, so far, the most well known track on the album is probably ‘Stronger Than Me’. In ‘Stronger Than Me’, she berates a boyfriend who doesn’t ‘live up to his role’ as ‘The Man’
