TBH I have never heard her music before. Since she seems to be so well respected I'll check it out. The only access to her I have gotten is from the occasional meme pic and online tabloid link of her looking like an absolute junky so I guess it's no surprise to anyone.

The 27 club really should be reserved for iconic musicians. Winehouse gave us a very good album but hasn't done shit in years.

But is anyone really surprised? I mean, she died Amy Winehousing.

I agree with Ronin.

RIP Amy Winehouse. Anyone dying is horrible.

Was she really that talented though? Could she sing better any most? Were here lyrics that amazing? Maybe i'm not seeing something with her music, but i didn't find it all great in any sense.

so many legends 27. and then... im also 27... fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Ronin 07-24-2011 01:06 AM

I'm 28!!!!! Woooooooo...made it!

Now I can...

...eventually...die in a...non-famous age group. :okay:

She can rest in peace. I'm not surprised she died, it is quite given what was going to happen to her eventually.

what a sad day for music.
amy was definitely on a different level of talent than just about any other female singer.
i was looking forward to some of her new music and now this is a damn shame.

and murdoc, i respectfully disagree. if you followed her music closely you'd probably have a hard time excluding her from that group of artists.
here in north america, nobody knows or cares about amy winehouse. thats a damn shame as well.
listen to frank and back to black a few times, then holla back.

rip

If she was on the same level as the others mentioned, people in North America would certainly care about her music. The effect Nirvana had goes far beyond music too.. to even mention them (or just about any other artist) in the same breath is a mindfuck. :fulloffuck:

You must be living under a rock if you've never heard of Amy Winehouse before 2 days ago

"The singer won 2008 Grammy Awards in the categories of Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance

After the Grammy Awards, album sales increased catapulting Back to Black to number two on the U.S. Billboard 200 after initially peaking at number seven"



she was really well known a few years ago before she started hitting the sauce too hard.

When it comes to pop music, I am definitely living under a rock :lol. I only heard a Justin Beiber song for the first time 2 or 3 weeks ago. And Lady Gaga like a few months ago. I have heard OF all these people, but I am not really exposed to their music out here in the boonies.

With the last name wine and house combined she had no chance!

It's just like Lou Gehrig's Disease, he should have known what was coming...

I feel sorry for her dealers

Ronin 07-25-2011 12:59 AM

Her voice was something else...but she didn't put out enough music to be worthy of 27 Club association. She was a talent but she's no Hendrix or Cobain for sure.
