Kowalski Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 News reports coming in saying she's been found dead. Sadly it was probably only a matter of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcatraz Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 If you saw her perform in the last 4 years, you're probably surprised she didn't die sooner. Still sad though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5co77ie Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 So isn't that something like seven of Doherty's crack smoking friends now dead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexclark Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Who know's what her mental state was. To all her a stupid c**t is completely ignorant. She was clearly a troubled soul. My thoughts in to her family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amy246 Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Saw her at V 2008 when she was going downhill fast, arrived late, slurred her lyrics and barely sang however she did have a talent and a lot of fans, just wish she never got drawn into the drink and drugs.

ampersand Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 i was glad to have seen her before she went really downhill. think she was on the verge. still really really amazing. i did wonder if that was it for her though. a new album always seemed years away sadly. back to black was 5 years ago!

Ed209 Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 She played my university leaving ball in 2004 when she was in great shape and really on the up. She was quite fit back then.

rexclark Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 I was calling adustlandfairytale a c**t should have made it clearer I agree... a troubled soul it's been an awful day news-wise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparticus Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 I feel bad for the friends and family that spent years trying to help her, and as such, will now have to contend with the papers wanting a story. But unfortunately, skag heads who are repeatedly offered more chances than hot meals, well i'm fresh out of hugs on that one. In the words of her friend, "What a waster".

Sparticus Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Is it so easy to get addicted to drugs? Is it so easy to give them up? How the f**k do you know the reasons why she used drugs? Addiction is an illness, do you really think she wanted to live that way? I'm sick to f**k of the condescending attitudes towards her death. She had alot of mental issues which sadly lead to her death. Her loss of life is a terrible waste but it was not her fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexclark Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 I'm sorry, but girlie had it all, and ultimately spunked it up the wall. Just turns up f**ked to her gigs constantly, cheating people out of their money. Cancelled the entire last tour with what? A week to go. Complete joke. As I said to the people around her, my sympathy is with them, but Amy Winehouse was a f**king wreck four years ago, and unfortunately has drawn the short straw in that she'd died first out of herself and pete doherty. I'm trying to say this in the most sincere way, because i'm not taking the mickey because she's died, that would be a horrible thing to do. Fact is she chose to be a train wreck, chose to f**k off to the caribbean for a year rather than actually face her demons. Everyone's got issues, but everyone's not on skag.

abdoujaparov Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 Surprised anyone gives a rats arse really... Her contribution to music was limited and she has totally wasted her life... Terrible role model to boot... 94 young people had their life taken away from them this weekend... Millions starving around the world... They are the sort of deaths that spark real sadness in me... Not some drugy wasters passing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdoujaparov Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 (edited) Of course she is less deserving of sympathy... I won't document all her wrong doings as they are clear to everyone. How can you suggest that her passing deserve the same amount of sadness and sympathy as someone who did good with their lives and lived by the law and society. Unless of course your in a similar mindset as Winehouse who thinks drug misuse and a lack of respect for the law is ok...

rexclark Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 As per usual Oafish you come here and contribute f**k all. It's like having a Daily Mail autobot. It's not a competition of who's life is more valuable, what happened in Norway was tragic but so is what happened to Winehouse. I hope you, as a father never have to deal with addiction as it is a horrible disease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rexclark Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 She isn't a hero. She was a 27 year old girl with deep metal issues. She was a daughter and a friend and i'd hate to think if something this horrible happened to one of my friends or family people would stop being judgemental and have a bit of compassion.

ampersand Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 think what makes it more tragic is that she looked great last week, as if she was getting back to good health. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trixibell Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 (edited) I think Russell Brand actually sums it up pretty well, part of the last paragraph of his article for amy: Now Amy Winehouse is dead, like many others whose unnecessary deaths have been retrospectively romanticised, at 27 years old. Whether this tragedy was preventable or not is now irrelevant. It is not preventable today. We have lost a beautiful and talented woman to this disease. Not all addicts have Amy’s incredible talent. Or Kurt’s or Jimi’s or Janis’s, some people just get the affliction. All we can do is adapt the way we view this condition, not as a crime or a romantic affectation but as a disease that will kill. We need to review the way society treats addicts, not as criminals but as sick people in need of care. Link if anyone wants to read the rest - http://www.russellbrand.tv/2011/07/for-amy/ and i agree its nothing like the horror going on in Norway but she is still dead and that makes me Edited July 24, 2011 by Trixibell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
