re: #173 Alouette

Did people hate Mozart back in the day?

Mozart had any number of personal problems, but he was not an addict like Amy Winehouse. I don’t have any beef with the poor woman at all. I’m utterly sorry for her. I think the thing about her is that she really did push the self destruct button so hard, so unapologetically and so publicly.

Honestly, most of the wingnuts have probably never listened to a single one of her tracks. They just know from comedians and tabloids how hard she self destructed. It is in a weird way another case of out of touch aging white Christian types attempting to be “cool” and “hip” by even mentioning her name.
