She's been living off her early days for years now. She used to sound amazing and had bags of soul. She's not had any of that for a long time now though, she lost it all, her health, her voice, her ambition and her presence. She had the world at her feet and she threw it all away, not in an instant either...she spent years and years slowly throwing it away bit by bit...thats the only tragic bit. Years ago her performances were amazing, after a while they were sh*t...don't know what made people keep slobbering over her tbh.

I might be the only one here who to be honest doesn't give a fcuk that she's dead.  IMHO she was just a waster that runnier her life with drink and drugs and isn't the kind of person I have much respect for.


No, I didn't want to be too hardline (unusual for me) but I completely agree. The talent thing people keep mentioning is pretty irrelevant in my opinion.


....Agreed x3!

She had some talent in the early years as Carl says, but was simply overrated IMO and had nil respect for her fans nor much anyone else later. Good riddance - She's actually better off gone and away from all her self inflicted suffering.

Kurt Cobain, Brian Jones, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix...

However, I think the more relevant common connection is that they all died because they abused drugs!

I'm not at all surprised. I feel very sorry for her parents, especially her father, but.... She was so overrated as a singer and performer and paid the cost of being a junky. Just another quasi celeb, like Jade Whats-her-name.

Very sad day for MUSIC, amazing talent, not quite like Jade goody! RIP AW!

I saw Winehouses niece at the Latitude festival last Sunday. She was very good and sounded just like Amy who IMO had a good voice too. As said, I'm sure it's no surprise she was found dead in the way that she was with the suspected cause of death as it stands.

It's a shame but she did definitely tarnish her own name very much so by her own silly actions.

....Why a sad day for music? - She had no more music to offer people. She was finished and had wrecked herself.

She has tarnished how good (good but not brilliant imo) she was up to the time of that album which made her famous. She ran out of talent, albeit due to alcohol and drugs etc.

But now people will treat her like a martyr and believe she's better than she was.

Wait for the release and heavy marketing of all her previous recordings irrespective of their quality.... It won't take long.

I feel sorry for her father, can you imagine having a daughter with her finger on the self destruct button knowing there is nothing you can do?

Is it a waste that she has killed herself? No, not really... she proved that in belgrade. Her hay day was over, and it didn't ever look like she had any intention of getting clean.

Is it a shame that she didn't get herself sorted out and continue touring and recording albums? Yes, regardless of if you like her or not.

I agree with most that's been said, she was good early on (but as with anything good got over played and became annoying) then she just slowly started ruining herself with drugs and drink until the worst happened whichwas yesterday... As I said in my first post, it was only a matter of time


Kurt Cobain, Brian Jones, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix...

However, I think the more relevant common connection is that they all died because they abused drugs!

Was kurt cobain really killed by the drugs in his body or was there another explination  :evilgrin:

I have a complete zero tolerance policy to anyone who does drugs and in all honesty i couldnt care any less about her death, im the same for people who commit suicide.  Just selfish self centred people.  Obviously its a shame for her family, but lets be fair, it was only a matter of time before it happened. 

Is it safe to post amy winehouse jokes yet.....
