Never really cared about her to be honest. What is worrying is listening about her on the news BEFORE they talk about the bombings / shooting in Norway, i find that very sad indeed  :confused:

I've been working in Norway for years and today spoke to my boss - there are still youths from her area missing on the island and unaccounted for.

Sorry to say it but those events in Norway were the only tragedy in the news at the weekend.
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

Very poor seeing people on this planet with this kind of approach.  :sleepy:

Some of these opinions should be kept to yourselves.

Somebody's daughter at the end of the day.

I have an opinion about it but I do not wish to share it.

Because its not fair on her FAMILY!

Well out of order. :sad1:

....I see your point but, countering that, her family are extremely touched by the very public show of support (all over the TV news and media). Yes, this forum is public but there's always going to differing opinions expressed everywhere.

When we lost our 4yo son, friends and strangers alike showed huge emotional support (a couple of hundred people were at his burial ceremony). Such support is moving in the extreme. I can tell you that if someone had expressed 'good riddance' or similar, my thoughts would be that it was their problem not mine. It's not as if loads of folks are turning up outside the Winehouse residence and celebrating her death.

Folks here are just being honest about what they think of Amy Whinehouse.

Some comments have gone a little over the top I agree (jokes etc), but most are just giving there opinion on Amy Whinehouse herself. She is somebody's daughter you're right mate and I have full sympathy for Mitch Whinehouse especially. This guy has been dragged to hell and back after what he has seen his daughter do to herself, even after his countless attempts to help her.  This is one of the main reasons why I don't carry much sympathy for Amy herself...
Yes she was a drug addict, but it's still completely selfish IMO..

Oh and let's be honest, unless Mitch Whinehouse has just bought a Mk5 GTI, I hardly think he is going to be on this forum and read these comments. But i'm pretty sure he is going to hear comments about his daughter that aren't nice. True, but not nice...

She was 27 and unfortunately couldn't handle the 'pressure' of 'fame'.

I think she was extremely talented with one of the greatest female jazz voices I have heard.

On the face of it, it appears drugs/drink, one of the same? was the answer for her?

I was going to put anybody but I won't, who thinks she wasn't talented is hugely mistaken.

With the likes of girls aloud, Saturday's etc etc who can only pout and dance poorly to say she had no talent is delusional.

Have all the negative comments about her talent actually listened properly, sat down and actually listened to how good she was?

I am a music fan and to put her talent down because she was a 'junkie' is grossly misunderstood.

And lastly is getting completely hammered on a Friday/Saturday night and waking up with somebody who you don't know and clothes missing any different to being a junkie?

It's escapism as is track days, car modding, mountain biking(adrenalin junkie?), gaming etc etc.

She was trying to escape and I think a little compassion is necessary.

We are all trying to do the same.

And you never know a relation or old friend of hers may be on here.

I maybe should have put present day.

But she was, was, very good.

With all the sh*t out there she was, again was, a breath of fresh air.

Did her boyfriend/husband do her any favours? Who knows.

Nor that one...  :surprised:

So doing a track day is now the same as sitting in a corner with a needle hanging out your arm and being near unconscious is it?!?!  :surprised: For a start, one's legal and the other isn't..

Perhaps the outcome would have been better if she stayed in rehab......but she said no, no, no.
