Amy Winehouse program breaks

We recorded the prog on our Humax and on playing it back tonight. At every
commercial break the screen has cut abruptly to black with a nasty crackle
through the speakers.

Never had this before. Anyone else had this when playing back the
recording? Anyone watch it live? Just wondering if our newish AV amp is in
any way to blame.

I thought she was tremendous. If she'd lived she would have moved to
classical I'm sure.

Had one short bit where it froze /and/ went to 4:3 at the same time.

Might have been a mezzo, but not with all the smoking and drinking. Her
voice was very good considering the abuse it had.

You got in before me there!
On one of her songs she goes on about carpet burns, so the crackling could
be her sliding about on the carpet generating static.
You obviously need an exorcist!

Then why didn't she if she could?

Whenever I've heard her, she sings every note except the right one - the
best that can be said is that if the notes in the song increase in pitch, so
does her singing, but not necessarily by the same interval :-)

But there seems to be a style of singing where the singer improvises on the
tune and sings any old note that is vaguely correct, instead of being
faithful to the melody that other singers have already sung and that you are
used to.

Isn't that known as 'Jazz'?

Probably. I know it as "singing the wrong notes" (as opposed to "singing all
the right notes but not necessarily in the right order", to quote Eric
Morecambe)
