Amy Winehouse found dead

Postby Nothingman54 » Sat Jul 23, 2011 9:49 am

Amy Winehouse has been found dead at her home in London, it has been reported.

The Back To Black singer was apparently found at the property at around 4pm this afternoon and her death is believed to be treated as 'unexplained' by police.

It is thought her father Mitch has yet to find out about his daughter's untimely passing, as he is currently on his way to America to perform at a jazz festival.

Just let me known to be
In search of the truth myself
There is a drop of blood on the ground
And it seems to me that it's not my kind
And I can't be sure if its yours or mine."

I never heard one song of hers. If I have I didn't know it. Every time I heard something about her it was something to do with drugs.

Indeed sad. She had talent, and problems.

She should have gone to rehab..









Ok, maybe that was insensitive, but did anyone not see this coming?


Sad story.

Sad story.


Definitely insensitive....

I don't see how anyone could not have seen this coming, even her mother said this a while back (posted it in another Winehouse thread):

'I've known for a long time that my daughter has problems. But seeing it on screen rammed it home. I realise my daughter could be dead within the year. We're watching her kill herself, slowly.

'I've already come to terms with her dead. I've steeled myself to ask her what ground she wants to be buried in, which cemetery. Because the drugs will get her if she stays on this road.

'I look at Heath Ledger and Britney. She's on their path. It's like watching a car crash - this person throwing all these gifts away.'

Another artist dies at 27. Not surprising but still very sad to see someone spiral down like that.

I think her father is currently on an airplane overseas, if I had to make a guess. Internet moves faster than planes.

Same here...to me she was a tabloid "celebrity"

I do have some of her music and I liked her singing - bluesy soul. She had talent, as opposed to a lot of these total untalents out there.
