Rehab Lyrics:
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go
I’d rather be at home with ray
I ain’t got seventy days
Cause there’s nothing
There’s nothing you can teach me
That I can’t learn from Mr Hathaway
I didn’t get a lot in class
But I know it don’t come in a shot glass
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go
The man said ‘why do you think you here’
I said ‘I got no idea
I’m gonna, I’m gonna lose my baby
so I always keep a bottle near’
He said ‘I just think you’re depressed,
this me, yeah baby, and the rest’
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I don’t ever wanna drink again
I just ooh I just need a friend
I’m not gonna spend ten weeks
have everyone think I’m on the mend
It’s not just my pride
It’s just ’til these tears have dried
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go

From the news reports there is still no confirmed cause of death. R.I.P. Amy.

And here we go….
MICROSOFT has apologised for a “tweet” that has been blasted for seeming like a blatant effort to cash in on the death of Amy Winehouse.

Microsoft became a target of online ire over the weekend after the same Twitter account posted an update inviting people to remember Winehouse by buying digital versions of her Back to Black album at social.zune.net.
The Zune website is Microsoft’s shop on the internet for downloading music, films and other entertainment content to computers, smartphones, and Xbox 360 videogame consoles.

Another way the corporation of parasites control the artists is by hooking them up to drugs!

Whateve the reason she died, it is a tragedy. She was a gifted singer albeit a train wreck.

Let’s put this in perspective ….
After Michael Jackson died in 2009, he became the top-selling artist of that year, despite that he had released no new material. Nor did it take a multi-million dollar advertising/promotion/payola campaign to generate those sales. 2009 was Wacko Jacko’s best year after a slump lasting two decades. His death did more to fill record industry coffers than his continued existence could have possibly achieved.
Another example was Jim Morrison, a drugged-out ‘has-been’ whose death instantly turned him into a cult legend. Joplin and Hendrix became more popular after death than they had been while alive.
There may be a good reason why the record industry often encourages their contract artists’ self-destructive lifestyles. Death sells.
