The film distinguished itself by pulling zero punches, effectively documenting both the majesty of Winehouse at work, and the horrifying consequences of her most self-destructive impulses. It caught her sharp wit and her selfish side; her sensitive core and the caustic walls she put up to try and protect herself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2yCIwmNuLE\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some scenes also served to show some of the uglier realities of the relationship between Amy and her dad. In one now-infamous moment, Mitch brings a TV crew to Saint Lucia even though his daughter is trying to recover outside of the spotlight. After he chastises her for being rude to two fans who wanted a picture, she says \"I don't want to be made a mug [fool] out of, dad.\" Sound engineer, Shomari Dilon comments in a voiceover: \"She just wanted her dad and he didn't just come by himself. He came with cameras and audio guys.\" After the movie's release, Mitch Winehouse insisted that this depiction of him was \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/may/01/mitch-winehouse-interview-amy-documentary-film\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">misleading\u003c/a>.\" But it's hard not to recall it every time he makes yet another public appearance to talk about Amy or endorse something related to her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheer number of people who have produced tributes to Amy Winehouse in the last eight years speaks volumes about how much she's still missed, and how much money can still be made from her. Probably, Amy would be best served posthumously if the world simply followed the instructions she left us. She told journalists repeatedly throughout her life that she would like everyone to just focus on her songs. In one early MTV UK interview, she said: \"The more people see of me, the more they’ll realize that all I’m good for is making music.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1TQRJWLZ3s\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before Amy Winehouse died, I had been in the habit of listening to \u003cem>Back to Black\u003c/em> daily. After her death, I abruptly stopped and shelved that record for a full five years. In the immediate aftermath of her loss, listening to the more searing moments of the album—in full knowledge that there would never be a happy ending—was simply too dark. I tried to engage in other ways but they too felt uncomfortably masochistic. (It took me 20 minutes after the \u003cem>Amy\u003c/em> documentary had finished to stop crying long enough to get out of the movie theater.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='pop_105661']In the end, for me, the solution to keeping Amy Winehouse's spirit alive was the very simplest one—I just returned to the music with fresh ears, and made a concerted effort to remember how it felt the first time. Going back to the start was the easiest way to erase everything that had happened in between—the substance abuse, the relationship drama, the sanitized, simplified version of her we see so often now. \u003cem>Back To Black\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Frank\u003c/em> are the only things we know for sure represent how Amy Winehouse wanted to be seen by the world, and they are a more realistic reflection of her than any hologram ever could be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"background-color: transparent\">Try as other people might, the only person who was ever any good at telling Amy's story was Amy herself.

In one now-infamous moment, Mitch brings a TV crew to Saint Lucia even though his daughter is trying to recover outside of the spotlight. After he chastises her for being rude to two fans who wanted a picture, she says \"I don't want to be made a mug [fool] out of, dad.\" Sound engineer, Shomari Dilon comments in a voiceover: \"She just wanted her dad and he didn't just come by himself. He came with cameras and audio guys.\" After the movie's release, Mitch Winehouse insisted that this depiction of him was \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/may/01/mitch-winehouse-interview-amy-documentary-film\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">misleading\u003c/a>.\" But it's hard not to recall it every time he makes yet another public appearance to talk about Amy or endorse something related to her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheer number of people who have produced tributes to Amy Winehouse in the last eight years speaks volumes about how much she's still missed, and how much money can still be made from her. Probably, Amy would be best served posthumously if the world simply followed the instructions she left us. She told journalists repeatedly throughout her life that she would like everyone to just focus on her songs. In one early MTV UK interview, she said: \"The more people see of me, the more they’ll realize that all I’m good for is making music.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/h1TQRJWLZ3s'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/h1TQRJWLZ3s'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Before Amy Winehouse died, I had been in the habit of listening to \u003cem>Back to Black\u003c/em> daily. After her death, I abruptly stopped and shelved that record for a full five years. In the immediate aftermath of her loss, listening to the more searing moments of the album—in full knowledge that there would never be a happy ending—was simply too dark. I tried to engage in other ways but they too felt uncomfortably masochistic. (It took me 20 minutes after the \u003cem>Amy\u003c/em> documentary had finished to stop crying long enough to get out of the movie theater.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"pop_105661","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>In the end, for me, the solution to keeping Amy Winehouse's spirit alive was the very simplest one—I just returned to the music with fresh ears, and made a concerted effort to remember how it felt the first time.

Finding any common ground in the midst of the deep divisions between right and left is increasingly difficult since the Trump era began—and it’s making the gatherings of our national holidays even more awkward and politically charged. Which brings us to a serious party issue: What in the name of the stars and stripes do you play at your Fourth of July barbecue this year, if you have a crowd of both protest-favoring Democrats and allegiance-pledging Republicans?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some songs that both groups will think are directed at them, to help get you through the day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Lana Del Rey, “National Anthem”\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxDdEPED0h8\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The song opens with the words “Money is the anthem of success,” thereby immediately getting your Republican guests on board. Later on, when they hear “Money is the reason we exist / Everybody knows it, it’s a fact,” they’ll feel buoyed by your fiscal-favoring musical choices. The Democrats in your vicinity will be more focused on the sarcastic “kiss-kiss” at the end of that line, and know that the All-American girl singing this song is, in fact, expressing a deeply cynical hatred of rampant capitalism. What’s more Fourth of July than a song called “National Anthem” anyway?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miley Cyrus, “Party in the USA”\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M11SvDtPBhA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No one has ever heard the opening lines of “Party in the USA” and felt bummed about it. This magical track makes everyone inexplicably happy to be alive and living in America, regardless of whatever political turmoil we’re in the middle of. With this 2009 favorite, the Republicans have a perfect song to wave their flags to, while even the most cynical of Democrats can feel less guilty about their own patriotic love of this thing by remembering what a big ol’, \u003ca href=\"http://www.happyhippies.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LGBTQ-loving lefty\u003c/a> Miley is.

The video hammered the point home, full as it was of stars ‘n’ stripes, fast cars, and tons of cleavage. As such, for people on the right, this song might as well have been called “America the Beautiful.” People on the left, however, have more of a tendency to recall that the original version of “American Woman” was written by The Guess Who as \u003ca href=\"http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=446\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“an anti-war protest song”\u003c/a> in the midst of the Vietnam War. If a fight breaks out when this track comes on, rest assured that it won’t be about party politics, it’ll be about sexism.

The Democrats in your vicinity will be more focused on the sarcastic “kiss-kiss” at the end of that line, and know that the All-American girl singing this song is, in fact, expressing a deeply cynical hatred of rampant capitalism.

The video hammered the point home, full as it was of stars ‘n’ stripes, fast cars, and tons of cleavage. As such, for people on the right, this song might as well have been called “America the Beautiful.” People on the left, however, have more of a tendency to recall that the original version of “American Woman” was written by The Guess Who as \u003ca href=\"http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=446\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“an anti-war protest song”\u003c/a> in the midst of the Vietnam War.

Hardly a week went by without a controversy -- butchering her hair, dropping Molly and marijuana references, twerking on live TV, NSFW fashion shoots -- each one making plain that Miley is not your tween role model anymore. We may dismiss her viewer provocation, exploitation of sexuality, and self-destructive tendencies as headline-grabbing antics, but perhaps there's more going on here. Similar tactics have been used by contemporary artist Marina Abramovic, the \"grandmother of performance art.\" Marina also had a stellar 2013, founding a performance art institute, starring in an opera about her death, writing James Franco's biography, and most famously, inspiring \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMG2oNqBy-Y\">Jay-Z's recent video for \"Picasso Baby.\"\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If your reaction is \"Marina who?\" then here's a brief introduction. Marina Abramovic made a name for herself in the anarchic heyday of Performance Art in the 1970s as an ultra-serious zealot. Performances such as her seminal \u003cem>Rhythm\u003c/em> series were notorious for the dangerous circumstances she devised, and her endurance of self-imposed penances. In her legendary work \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://vimeo.com/71952791\" target=\"_blank\">Rhythm 0\u003c/a>\u003c/em>\u003cem> \u003c/em>(1974), Marina offered spectators the opportunity to pleasure or harm her naked body with a myriad of objects ranging from a feather to a loaded gun, which audience members proceeded to do. Fast forward to 2010: for \u003cem>The Artist is Present\u003c/em>, a work staged at the MoMA in conjunction with a career survey and \u003ca href=\"http://marinafilm.com/\" target=\"_blank\">documented by HBO\u003c/a>, Marina silently locked eyes, one at a time, with hundreds of thousands of spectators queued up over three months (736 hours total).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marina is taking advantage of her fame while making a significant shift in her career with some high-profile celebrity collaborations. On the heels of her MoMA show, Marina has found her brand in demand by Lady Gaga, James Franco, and Jay-Z. For his \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMG2oNqBy-Y\" target=\"_blank\">Picasso Baby\" music video\u003c/a>, Jay-Z reinterpreted Marina's \u003cem>The Artist Is Present\u003c/em> at Pace Gallery, featuring himself as the Artist, rapping and strutting, and casting Marina as one of many reveling VIP participants. \"Picasso Baby\" is subtitled \"A Performance Art Video,\" but is it performance art, a music video, a hybrid?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Caught off guard, viewers often don't know what to make of these new hybrids. (Critic Jerry Saltz, who was in attendance, \u003ca href=\"http://www.vulture.com/2013/07/jerry-saltz-face-to-face-with-jay-z.html\" target=\"_blank\">went in skeptical and left \"elated\"\u003c/a>.) When artists long for celebrity fame and pop stars flaunt Art World cred, traditionally separate frameworks of interpretation break down and merge together. The Art World badge gives an aura of seriousness to celebrity bearers, but perhaps it's not necessary anymore, if the boundary between the two worlds is so porous.

Hardly a week went by without a controversy -- butchering her hair, dropping Molly and marijuana references, twerking on live TV, NSFW fashion shoots -- each one making plain that Miley is not your tween role model anymore. We may dismiss her viewer provocation, exploitation of sexuality, and self-destructive tendencies as headline-grabbing antics, but perhaps there's more going on here. Similar tactics have been used by contemporary artist Marina Abramovic, the \"grandmother of performance art.\" Marina also had a stellar 2013, founding a performance art institute, starring in an opera about her death, writing James Franco's biography, and most famously, inspiring \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMG2oNqBy-Y\">Jay-Z's recent video for \"Picasso Baby.\"\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If your reaction is \"Marina who?\" then here's a brief introduction. Marina Abramovic made a name for herself in the anarchic heyday of Performance Art in the 1970s as an ultra-serious zealot. Performances such as her seminal \u003cem>Rhythm\u003c/em> series were notorious for the dangerous circumstances she devised, and her endurance of self-imposed penances. In her legendary work \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://vimeo.com/71952791\" target=\"_blank\">Rhythm 0\u003c/a>\u003c/em>\u003cem> \u003c/em>(1974), Marina offered spectators the opportunity to pleasure or harm her naked body with a myriad of objects ranging from a feather to a loaded gun, which audience members proceeded to do. Fast forward to 2010: for \u003cem>The Artist is Present\u003c/em>, a work staged at the MoMA in conjunction with a career survey and \u003ca href=\"http://marinafilm.com/\" target=\"_blank\">documented by HBO\u003c/a>, Marina silently locked eyes, one at a time, with hundreds of thousands of spectators queued up over three months (736 hours total).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marina is taking advantage of her fame while making a significant shift in her career with some high-profile celebrity collaborations. On the heels of her MoMA show, Marina has found her brand in demand by Lady Gaga, James Franco, and Jay-Z. For his \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMG2oNqBy-Y\" target=\"_blank\">Picasso Baby\" music video\u003c/a>, Jay-Z reinterpreted Marina's \u003cem>The Artist Is Present\u003c/em> at Pace Gallery, featuring himself as the Artist, rapping and strutting, and casting Marina as one of many reveling VIP participants. \"Picasso Baby\" is subtitled \"A Performance Art Video,\" but is it performance art, a music video, a hybrid?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Caught off guard, viewers often don't know what to make of these new hybrids. (Critic Jerry Saltz, who was in attendance, \u003ca href=\"http://www.vulture.com/2013/07/jerry-saltz-face-to-face-with-jay-z.html\" target=\"_blank\">went in skeptical and left \"elated\"\u003c/a>.) When artists long for celebrity fame and pop stars flaunt Art World cred, traditionally separate frameworks of interpretation break down and merge together. The Art World badge gives an aura of seriousness to celebrity bearers, but perhaps it's not necessary anymore, if the boundary between the two worlds is so porous. Perhaps we can stretch out this broad hybridized pop/art framework a bit further, to reevaluate work lacking that aura of seriousness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10937\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 737px\">\u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/pop/2014/02/05/miley-abramovic-the-artist-came-in-like-a-wrecking-ball/mm_crying/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-10937\">\u003cimg class=\" wp-image-10937 \" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/02/mm_crying-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"m&m_crying\" width=\"737\" height=\"369\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Stephen Shearer; \u003cem>Happy Christmas\u003c/em> by Marina Abramovic and \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=My2FRPA3Gf8\">still from \"Wrecking Ball,\" directed by Terry Richardson\u003c/a>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2013/sep/10/miley-cyrus-wrecking-ball\" target=\"_blank\">\"Wrecking Ball\"\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"http://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2013/sep/10/miley-cyrus-wrecking-ball\" target=\"_blank\">is the centerpiece of Miley's campaign\u003c/a> to reinvent herself.
