bbb Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Out of all these Britneys, Lindseys, etc., the only one that I cared that I wanted them to make it was Amy, because I think she made great music. And, I kept saying she's the only one who surely will die: http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2011/07/23/singer-amy-winehouse-found-dead-uk-press-says/?hpt=hp_c1

UConn James Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 (edited) I don't mean to sound callous, but it didn't exactly take Nostradamus to see this coming.... Link. Sad to see someone who's very talented (I've never listened to her music, but apparently a lot of people do) just self-destruct of their own volition. On edit: bbb beat me to it. I clean up my own messes, but there's no 'Delete' tab in the edit post functions. Edited July 23, 2011 by UConn James
Buftex Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I think the fact that she was a great singer, and the fact that "everyone saw it coming" is kind of what makes it all the more sad.
buffaloaggie Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 She had one top ten hit. She'll have a bigger rep in death than alive.
UConn James Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Oh good lord. You're turning an Amy Winehouse death thread into a PPP thing? Seriously?
bbb Posted July 23, 2011 Author Posted July 23, 2011 She had one top ten hit. She'll have a bigger rep in death than alive. She had a lot of great songs, and sold a lot of albums, etc. The Who, Neil Young, and several other legends have had one or less top ten hits.
Just Jack Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Oh good lord. You're turning an Amy Winehouse death thread into a PPP thing? Seriously? Agreed. I cleaned up the thread.
Mr_Blizzard Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Looks like the 27 Club has a new member. Yup. Very eerie how many great musicians died at 27 . . .
shrader Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 She had one top ten hit. She'll have a bigger rep in death than alive. That's a good point. I can't tell you the last time I heard her name before today.
stevestojan Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Agreed. I cleaned up the thread. My apologies. Sorry for crapping on the thread. Regardless of anything I said, 27 is too young to check out indeed.
Bufcomments Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Don't know about y'all, but I feel really sad about her passing. She had major talent. Love the song "Back to Black" . Played it all the time. Her music was really the essence of London Soul Music. Damn that crack, the shyt don't care who it kills. RIP Amy
bbb Posted July 24, 2011 Author Posted July 24, 2011 Totally agreed. I really love You know I'm no good.

Once hooked it's almost time to start planning the funeral. Especially for someone that is in an already crazy lifestyle lacking routines, order, and honest people around them that care. **note :: not saying it's 100% hopeless, but it's a whole different game than your average alcoholic or white collar drug user as I imagine the others were dealing with.
Buftex Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Death threads seem to bring out the worst in some people.
