说话的时候，英国口音非常好鉴别，唱歌的时候要困难很多。听Amy Winehouse唱《戒酒》（Rehab），嗅不出英国味，倒是浓烈的酒味一下就弥漫开来。她的声音相当醇厚，啤酒没有那种质感，葡萄酒也不行，一定得威士忌、伏特加、朗姆、杜松子之类的烈酒才配得上。二锅头当然可以，如果英国女孩愿意买这个品牌。Winehouse在歌中没有提到自己喝的是哪一种酒，她只说“I always keep a bottle near”（我总会有瓶酒在身边。）

24岁的英国歌手Winehouse才华横溢，同时酒香四溢，《戒酒》这首歌获得了2008年格莱美的最佳单曲奖。你不一定需要做酒鬼才能欣赏她的才华，天才坏女孩的魅力只需要这一首歌就足以呈现。如果你有兴趣听她的专辑Back to Black，更多酒香将扑鼻而来。

Winehouse在歌中谈到了酗酒的原因，她因为失恋而情绪低落。周围的人劝她进戒酒诊所，Winehouse以三个No来回答，理由是没时间，也没觉得在诊所里呆10个星期有任何意义，她宁可跟Ray和Hathaway呆在家里。Ray是黑人爵士和蓝调歌手Ray Charles， Donny Hathaway在1970年代以灵歌出名，这两人都长期沉迷于毒品。

现在已经有不少人开始担心Winehouse的未来，她的榜样Hathaway以自杀结束生命，年仅33岁。Winehouse有因失恋而酗酒的毛病，也摆脱不掉爱上不该爱的人之类的习惯，这样下去，等待她的将是什么样的命运？前不久，人们发现她不仅需要戒酒，还需要戒大麻和可卡因。

英美人的姓氏千奇百怪，本来没有字面上的意义。听过她的歌，读过她的故事，我突然意识到她竟然叫Winehouse，酒屋。

Rehab 《戒酒》的歌词

They tried to make me go to rehab

I said no, no, no.

Yes I been black, but when I come back

You wont know, know, know.

I ain’t got the time

And if my daddy thinks im fine

He’s tried to make me go to rehab

I wont go, go, go.

I’d rather be at home with ray

I ain’t got 70 days

Cos there’s nothing, nothing you can teach me

That I can't learn from Mr. Hathaway

Didn’t get a lot in class

But I know it don’t come in a shot glass

They’re tryin to make me go to rehab

I said no, no, no

Yes I been black, but when I come back

You wont know, know, know.

I aint got the time,

And if my Daddy thinks im fine,

He’s tried to make me go to rehab,

I wont go, go, go.

The man said, why you think you here?

I said, I got no idea

Im gonna, im gonna loose my baby

So I always keep a bottle near

Said, I just think you’re depressed

Kiss me, yeah baby

And go rest

I’m tryin to make me go to rehab

I said no, no, no

Yes I been black, but when I come back

You wont know, know, know

I don’t ever wanna drink again

I just, ooo, I just need a friend

Im not gonna spend 10 weeks

Have everyone think im on the mend

It’s not just my pride

It’s just til these tears have dried

They’re tryin to make me go to rehab

I said no, no, no

Yes I been black, but when I come back,

You wont know, know, know

I aint got the time,

And if my daddy thinks im fine

He’s trying to make me go to rehab

I won't go, go, go.
