Amy Winehouse 14 September 1983 – 23 July 2011

Yesterday we were shocked & deeply saddened by the tragic death of the dazzlingly talented Amy Winehouse. Yet another one of our brightest sparks extinguished by the darkness of addiction. It is thought today that more likely she died from a seizure after drinking and not an overdose but that these seizures were a side-effect of the damage done by years of such serious drug use. Such a talented & also very young woman - she would have been in my school year - she was also a unique fashion icon with her big hair, cute little pumps and trend-setting eyeliner. I pray she finds some well-deserved peace at last in the big recording studio in the sky with all those other great talents taken from us too early.....Cobain, Hendrix, Morrison, Presley, Monroe, Dean, Joplin, Lennon, Aaliyah, Lisa Left-Eye... Rest in Peace lovely x x
