Amy Winehouse

by planetparker

Like many people I sensed that Amy’s career would be as short as it was brilliant, yet when I heard of her death on Saturday evening I was shocked and horrified that my prediction had been realised.

 There is one adjective that is appropriate for her – unique. It describes her music, her vocals, her lyrics and her talent. Such talent only appears every few decades.

 Her song “Rehab” sounds a resonant  chord with anyone who has had to deal with depression or  addiction issues. She poured her pain into her music in a way that few artists were able to do.

 Those who knew her speak of a girl with a beautiful personality; perhaps it was too beautiful for this ugly world. May angels wing her to her rest.
