Agreed.

Oh, and welcome to the 27 Club Amy.

I'll have respect for her family and send my thoughts to them, but in my opinion, anybody on a path to destruction like she was on gets no sympathy from me. It isn't sad that she died, it's sad that a voice talent like hers was wasted on irresponsibility and poor choices.

Oh, and saying she's part of the Forever 27 club is like throwing a turd into a buffet of cheeseburgers, french toast, burritos, oreos and milk, and bacon sandwiches.

It's not like Robert Johnson, Mojo, Jimi, Janis, Brian Jones and Kurt are the only musicians to die at the age of 27. You don't have to be an all time great to die at that age. It's just a weird trend among musicians.

Double click.



^ This is what we lost.
Never mind what you thought you knew about her as a person. Here she is as an artist. That's all that concerns me.
I'll leave the crass comments to others.

If you can't hear it, you'll never feel it.

Ok... that last comment probably was harsh.

I think you are wrong though. She was a great talent.. she had a wonderful voice, very good singer. It is just her public image was tainted by her actions and choices.. she was a freak show, it is case of everybody loves a car crash, but nobody wants to be in one. She was the car crash we watched... we saw her self destruct in front of us and did nothing... love a circus.

She had the talent and means to go far, just a shame her demons got the worst of her ya know.
