I'm very upset about her death today. I'm not as hurt as when Michael Jackson died for obvious reasons but I really was keen on her music and her unique voice. I love her 'Back to Black' album and I remember I would have the whole album on repeat constantly in my iTunes for weeks. Seeing her in the media, I just find it completely devastating watching her go from an old soul that has the love of jazz music to her alcoholism and whatever narcotics she was on that week. Also seeing new images of her wither away to just skin and bones. I really love her music and not just her "Rehab" song which I'm pretty sure everyone is making jokes of the irony of the message in the song to her death.
I was really rooting for her to get better and come out with new music that I will love just as much as 'Back to Black' but unfortunately that didn't happen but I will remember her more for the music rather than her personal life and her relationship with alcohol and drugs. I still love you Amy! Rest in Peace.
