Amy Winehouse Live @ SXSW 2007 - Love Is A Losing Game
The first time I heard Amy Winehouse's voice was on BBC radio atleast a year before " Back to Black" was released in the states, she sang the classic "Stormy Monday." I knew she would be a huge star & she did in fact go on to win many awards. I was however unaware when I first heard her sing, that like so many talented artists before her, she was being chased by the demon that is addiction. Unfortunately, the demon won in the end and another wonderful talent has been lost. I personally, will miss the musical possibilities that she would have created. However, in the aftermath of this tragedy, perhaps most importantly what needs to be remembered is that another family has lost a loved one to the disease that is addiction.
