Amy Winehouse
Anyone see Amy on TV last night?
There were a lot of nasty posts on here when booze finally killed her. But I think she had a stunning talent and it's tragic she is gone. Perfect timing and a cold hard voice just suited for the blues/jazz she excelled in.
Anyone agree?

Sadly not the first and will not be the last but sadly sometimes being talented brings the pressures of the agent,media etc,etc. and so destroys the performer.God bless her and all the others and do not judge them harshly unless you have walked in their shoes.PS sometimes getting there is better than being there.

Well I can't agree with you but, of course, you are entitled to your opinion.
But I really appreciate other comments posted.
David
PS. I lost my wife of 40 years earlier this week so Amy's music was a deeply cathartic time for me.

David, I'm sorry to hear of you loss. The loss of someone as close as your wife is a huge loss to bear and if Amy Winehouse's music is something that can connect with and provide a release, then no one can argue with that. My condolences to you and your family.

I wasn't a fan of Any Winehouse, her music isn't something I'd buy. However, she did have an incredible voice and a LOT of talent.
PS Sorry to hear about your loss David, my prayers are with you and your family.

Sorry to hear this bad news, David 
Re: Winehouse, she was one on her own in this day an age. Certainly retro. One thing that did annoy me with her, or the industry moreso was relating her to a song originally made by the Zutons, even if she did sing it better,it was never her song and she wrote far better stuff off her own bat.
Alcoholism takes no prisoners; two in my family dead from it.

Thank you all so much for your kind comments. Much appreciated.
I won't post again on this thread but leave you with this which is rather nice;
Miss Me But Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road, and the sun has set for me I want no rites in a gloom-filled room, why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little but not for too long and not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared miss me but let me go.
For this is a journey that we all must take and each must go alone It’s all a part of the Master’s plan a step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart, Go to the friends we know, And bury your sorrow in doing good deeds. Miss me, but let me go. Anon
