Odds an Sods was an album put out by The Who in 1974 (I think it was in '74).

A life-size bronze statue of singer Amy Winehouse has been unveiled in Camden, north London.

The event, three years after her death, fell on what would have been her 31st birthday.

Her father, Mitch Winehouse, said she was "in love with Camden" and it was the place fans associated with her.

Created by sculptor Scott Eaton, the statue features the Back to Black star with her hand on hip and her trademark beehive hairdo.

Fans and relatives gathered for the unveiling in Camden's Stable Market, where it will be a permanent memorial to the singer.

London-based Mr Eaton, who sculpted the piece after being introduced to Ms Winehouse's father Mitch, said the statue was meant to capture her "attitude and strength, but also give subtle hints of insecurity".
“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”

"I did! Hubba hubba!"
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

She was a tremendous vocal talent and her death was a great loss to music. But you can't make someone love herself and her art more than she does the temptations of the bottle, and that is a tragedy.
GAH!

AMY WAS AN UNDERAPPRECIATED TALENT

It was great when she mentioned me in "Rehab."

"I'd rather be at home with Ray / I ain't got seventy days / Cause there's nothing, there's nothing you can teach me / That I can't learn from Mr. Hathaway"
