There was a very doomed/Kurt Cobainish vibe to her, especially in the last few years to her life. I don't think this really comes as a surprise to many, with the exception of those that were closest to her.
Hearing Mark Ronson say in a couple of interviews how he couldn't get anything useful out of her in the recording studio had me hoping that she'd turn things around. Heard rumors that she had been offered some really great opportunities like being asked to see if she could record a James Bond theme song, but the behavior, the drugs and all the demons she carried with her ruined each one that came her way.
It's a shame. She was enormously talented and had a gorgeous voice. Back In Black was and is still a favorite in my cd collection.
Morrison, Joplin, Hendrix, Cobain....Winehouse? uh...somebody doesn't belong in that sentence.
It's a list of musicians that died at age 27. And even though I agree she doesn't exactly belong in that list, her name is still internationally recognized for her talent, which is increasingly rare in todays world. I think if she hadn't been a drug addict she would still be easily recognized internationally for her talent.
No matter what her decisions and consequences in her actions were. May she Rest in Peace.

Oh. My. God. James absolutely obliterated the island tonight. The last time there was so much destruction, Obi Wan Kenobi had to take a seat on the Falcon after the Death Star said "hi and bye" to Leia's homeworld.
I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

Can't say I'm surprised and thought her talents were very over-rated : in some ways another victim of the english press build them up, hound them, let them come crashing down approach.
.... but it is always sad to lose people at such an early age and distressing for the people they leave behind. A distinct warning for many on the dangers of booze & drugs.
Enjoy and live for the music people, do everything else in moderation.
I'm not shocked at all she lovd getting fucked up the next to go will be pete docherty (hope thats spelt right)
Loved her voice. Too bad she couldn't beat her demons. May she finally find peace.
And with regards to the Oslo story, absolutely horrible. My thoughts and prayers are with all those involved
sigpic RIP Steve "Jibs" James - Your footprint is forever on my soul and in my heart xoxo RIP Jeff Shewchuk aka DJ Jeff Taylor (day_for_night) - You will live on in my heart forever xoxo
Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain.
Gaddafi hit Norway today. Norway wanted to bomb Libya and now they got a wake up call.
