I Like It I Don't Like It
What an unlikely pairing; I didn't realize these two were all BFF, did you?

Bryan Adams has become the latest aging pop star to tell Amy Winehouse to get her act together, but he's one-upping Keith Richards by making his plea in song.  Because the world really needed another Bryan Adams ballad, apparently?

I had no idea about this, but back around Christmas/New Years, Winehouse spent a few days at Adams's "Caribbean hideaway," where the two struck up a tight friendship.  He has now written a song about her called Flower Grown Wild (groan), which contains such uplifting and not-at-all trite lyrics as, "Amid the stars and the bars, the pimps and pills," and "the picture faded and the day was done, went home to nothin' but a loaded gun."

I think I'd be pretty cheesed off if Bryan Adams wrote a bad song about me that implied I was hanging around with purveyors of sex for sale, but Amy Winehouse likes the song so much that she's going to perform it with him on his tour this year.  I think Amy needs another stint in rehab and a new manager.

In other news, Bryan Adams still has enough fans to warrant a tour.
