Very sad news.

Amy Winehouse was an incredible talent and despite her personal struggles she stood out as a vocalist who needed no help in the studio to sound great. It would be up to the engineer to simply to capture her performance. :( :( :(

Very sad news indeed. Not surprising but sad. I know i`m going off track here but out of the 27 club, would they be as talented and wrote great songs and music if they weren`t drug abusers? I think the demons inside of us bring out great songwriting and albums as well.

It is a shame, I liked a lot of her music. Her father was always very public about trying to help her and beat her addiction, hence the song rehab. I think others around her like record companies should have helped her more knowing how weak she was.

very sad  :'(

Really shocked to hear the news at the weekend:(
Amy was a proper, female singer... many have since tried tio immitate...

Her style of singing and performances were sooo much better than the visual, modern rubbish (non singers) that we are bombarded with these days

RIP Amy..

I'm not pretending to be a big fan because I wasn't but I think this song is stunning, love the way her voice sounds a bit like Nat King Cole and also love the old classic feel to the whole song.

She was one of the few young artist I was really looking forward to seeing her growth.

She was surely a talented young woman.

RIP... Dear Amy
