Billy Bragg Comments on Death of Amy Winehouse

[zillagirl84]

where's the sound

[siralberthall]

@SuperJackthehat If you had taken the simple trouble to read my posts you would realise how ridiculous you sound. I am no racist as I have said I don`t care what your colour religion or sexual preference is. I would just prefer it if people got some self respect and did a days work for a days pay, paid THEIR taxes and contribute to society instead of poncing all THEIR miserable lives. I take it you work for a living? I suppose you are now going to tell us you left school at 6 to work in a mine

what a genuinely decent bloke, if only there was more people with his honesty, one of the best songwriters too imo

Nothing more powerful than the truth. The math never lies.

It would be nice to intervene and prevent alcoholism, but it doesn't work like that. People will only get better if they want it, not if they need it. It's a sad fact.

meaningful commentary

you can tell he's a compassionate man

and he likes to actively live by his convictions

[rigs345]

Though I appreciate his political views

@SuperJackthehat

Billy Bragg represents the people, he is a dissenting voice in an unjust world, a true musician. Amy Winehouse was talented yes, but it was all about amy, may she rest in peace... Amy Winehouse was no role model! Insanity is something that young people do not aspire to. Billy Bragg is a true rolel-model, who represents the people. "amy loved by millions bragg hated by millions"! When one reflects on the sick society we reside in Im afraid you may be right.

People power

@SuperJackthehat

Are these your words, or some bnp fascist?  whoever spoke them is a traitor to the truth. I urge them to read a book to stimulate their brain before it shrivells completely. '1984' and 'Farenheit 451' would be a start!

Power to the people, Tioceadh ar la.

@Ultimatetruthseeker1 Hating Billy Bragg doesn't mean you support the BNP. It just means you have a lot of sense

[Ultimatetruthseeker1]

@rigs345

There is nothing sensilble about hatred!

[lewars1912]

@rigs345 Why do you hate Billy Bragg?

[carlosdeno]

@SuperJackthehat spot on dude and he lives in a massive house, the tosser.

[erol4130]

@SuperJackthehat either way hes done a lot more than any of us could?please enlighten me if im wrong

[Johnoco66]

@SuperJackthehat Maybe he should live in a dustbin? That's the only alternative yes?

Just because you have money doesn't mean your comments are invalid. I'm no Bragg fan, but give it a rest with this 'hypocrite' line.

@SuperJackthehat

Assuming that is even correct & I don't know if it is.... Who gives a shit what house he lives in and what car he drives. I don't think anything was ever handed to Billy on a silver plate & if he has a nice house & nice car now good on him!

In all the years I've followed Billy I'm glad I've paid for a brick or two in that house & a tyre on that car.

Get ya head outta ya ass mate and move on.

So right.......and sadly far too late

[tessthefirst]

Eloquently spoken on a touchy subject. He is right and that we could all see it coming and I didn't know, personally, how to say not to glorify her. I wrote I think it's sad she let her demons she was addicted to destroy her life and control her to the point of her too early demise.

[Pepper6464]

Bragg is right. There are no excuses on not seeing the inevitability of drug abuse results

[peacewavenow]

RIP Amy, (and happy birthday Jerry Garcia)......regarding the comment of "who gives a fuck"....seems kind of odd then that you chose to watch the video and then bothered to leave a comment.
