Very true Alain. The sad part is that some people can never climb back up after they hit their bottom with drugs and alcohol.

:oops: I misspoke Doc, forgive. That "spot" is a rockin hard place for Women hetero-speaking. I should have said "I'm soft-hearted for bad girls" hetero-speaking. 8)

One thing is for sure. There was only one Amy Winehouse. Who's next?

You'd really need to know more about her personality and psychological makeup before you could come to a 'devil made me do it' conclusion.

It seemed to me then, as now, that it was all in there, just waiting to wreak havoc. And so it has.


Sorry if my prose got away from me. :? I was in obituary mode. I didn't mean to imply she was "innocent" in any way. There was just a huge transformation in her looks and style as she became more popular and I didn't care for her behaviour as she became more self destructive. I'm sure she had a whole host of psychological and physiological problems before she became famous. The point I was trying to make is that the media contributes to the problem by feeding the public's voyeuristic appetite for celebrity
f%@*ups. That way the "public" can say "see I'm not that bad after all." :roll: :wink:

She was a good singer/songwriter - watch the video above that I linked above from
her "Frank" (first album) playing that Stratocaster, age 19, clean looking and no addictions.

Never was into her..had a good voice the few times I heard it. Seemed a natural talent. None of this modern day "auto-tune" BS. But a train-wreck waiting to happen.

Apologies to any of her fans but...

Lots of "she was 27 like Joplin, Morrison, Hendrix, Cobain..." analysis going on now too that makes it seem like this is a phenomenon all of a sudden. She had daemons she couldn't control.

Point well taken. Courtney Love's a prime example of that sort of thing as well. I wonder that artists strive to fit an image that they feel their fan base expects of them.

Don't know if you can draw that conclusion about her at face value, Mike. It may always have been there. She just moulted to fit the eventual image.

True, one would hope that at age 19, she was not though. :?:
