She was hounded by the paparazzi and while I thought she was getting the help she needed, she was, like any of us, a human after all, and broken-hearted, which may have caused her 2 relapse, not 2 mention her deteriorating health, at such a young age due 2 her alcohol and drug use. Still, her death came as a shock 2 many of us. ![]() "Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise."

If you want to know what Amy's best concert was, youtube Amy Winehouse North Sea Jazz Festival 2004. I discovered it after seeing the Amy documentary. Truly sublime from start to finish. Here's a link https://m.youtube.com/wat...1UbpplAU5M Love is God,

i hope 214, you do not mind me posting these wonderful lyrics that amy winehouse sang so beautifully and soulfully. i'm sure you know the origins of the songs. i love the fact that amy "did her own thing" as far as the music she chose to record and do live. her voice, nothing less than unique in sound.
'will you still love me tomorrow'
November 1960 Tonight you're mine, completely Is this a lasting treasure Tonight with words unspoken I'd like to know if your love "Our Day Will Come"February 1964 'ruby and the romantics'

Our day will come
(Our day will come) And we'll have everything We'll share the joy (We'll share the joy) Falling in love can bring No one can tell me That I'm too young to know (Too young to know) I love you so (Love you so) And you love me Our day will come (Our day will come) If we just wait a while No tears for us (No tears for us) Think love and wear a smile Our dreams have magic Because we'll always stay In love this way Our day will come ![]() amywinehouse refused to be molded into the big triangle shape. she said "no."

Yeah, she sang a lot covers and jazz standards, but she also penned her own songs and was great at it, which is not surprising she worked as a journalist as a teen. She recorded her version of Our Day Will Come during her Frank album days. Love is God,

Besides being a great singer I also thought she was a very attractive girl (when she had some meat on her bones). I thought she was quite sexy honestly. RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time... | |

Also she had a great personality and wouldn't sugar coat things when it came to talking about other artists for eg. Dido oh the non-verbal shade is priceless. [Edited 8/12/16 22:29pm] Keep Calm & Listen To Prince | |

I enjoyed her music, and I made a point of seeing her live at a club here named London Calling on College Street. Unlike Prince, with WInehouse you knew that the end was coming, she was a trainwreck. AT the concert she couldn't wait to get off stage and get even more pissed - the audience were handing her drinks as she performed and she was downing them. Total self-destruction. | |
