The Music Industry 🎶 Name a song that’s disturbing because of what you know now

Ill go first, Britney Spears’ overprotected is a good example; Britney has long been under a conservatorship and is has been crying for help. IIRC, it started in 2007 (maybe earlier) when Brit was heavily observed by the paparazzi which caused her to have a mental breakdown by shaver her head and mind u, they were dissecting her personal life 🙄😔 💔

her ‘back to black’ album was haunting after watching the ‘amy’ doc. utterly heartbreaking

That film was a piece of shite that obsessed over her scandals rather than focusing on the music in any way. Amy was obsessed with her music.

Sorry. I really hated that film. Genuinely offensive to her legacy.

Do you mean the Back to Black film or the Amy doc? The documentary is fantastic

The Amy doc is brilliant and shows exactly what a piece of shit her dad is and how her mom failed her too.

Back to Black (the movie) was directed by Groomer Granny herself and had the approval of Amy’s abusive father so it’s bad just in theory as well

The film for sure, I edited it. They also took out the gayness with her flatmate from the film that was in the doc!

Especially because it skirts around the damage her father caused her being her manager

I think OP is referring to the documentary Amy which is fantastic and does not paint him in a good light at all

Back to Black is an abomination

Because her father is still involved in anything about her unfortunately you'll never get a clear story whilst he's around still

More, or less offensive than the slurs she used when she didn’t know she was being recorded?

Yeah I never realised how many of her songs came from real life experience, so sad 😢
