RIP Amy Winehouse

Monday, July 25, 2011


My heart feels truly sad for this young lady who never had an opportunit­y to live her life.
British singer Amy Winehouse was found dead in her London home on July 23, according to the London Metropolitan Police.



Though there are no early signs of foul play, many suspect a drug overdose may have been her cause of death. Winehouse was 27.

Her breakout 2006 album, 'Back to Black,' earned her six Grammy nominations and five wins, putting her on the music map for good.

However her long and public battle with drugs and alcohol addiction ofter overshadowed her talents.




UPDATE: 2 Aug 2011
Amy Winehouse tops album charts
Amy Winehouse's Grammy award-winning album Back To Black has soared to the top of the charts in the wake of her death.
As tributes poured in to the troubled star, fans flocked to buy her records sending five hits into the top 40 - a record for the late soul and jazz star.

And while Back To Black became this week's best-selling album - holding off Adele's 21 - her debut effort Frank came in at number 5 and the box set Frank/Back to Black entered at number 10.

The success came as the 27-year-old's devastated family waited for the results of toxicology tests to establish the cause of her death.

Relatives believe her decision to stop drinking - following protracted battles with drugs and alcohol - may have been a contributing factor.

HMV's Gennaro Castaldo said: "It's no real surprise that Back To Black has gone back to the top of the album charts.

    Metropolitan police confirm death of singer notorious as much for her off-stage excesses as her music.
