Re: GoodBye, Amy!

wow, so many. and these all wrote while drunk? or were drinkers that wrote?

I now do know one outstanding writer, after having done a quick google - oscar wilde, sharpest wit going, how he maintained that persona while being drunk beggars belief.

you could almost say "I drink therefore I am"

Re: GoodBye, Amy!

She was the best, very talented and overhighly sincere.
She was a true star, bright and shining, like stars of previous age. She even took her death similar way to them.

The stars of new formation, Lady Gaga and others, they are empty and lifeless, just a commodity and nothing more. Amy was the last one and her death is very great loss for current pop-music culture.

I am pretty sure that if she had lived a few decades ago then nobody would talk shit about her.
The world are loosing understanding of what the genuine art is.

..
Other aspect that brings sorrow is that even with her talent and possibilities she has not opened herself fully. Unlike Cobain, Morrison and others she was not a formed person, but she was like a baby. She could create much more than she did. Her talent had gone with her before it was realized. For me it becomes evident just from listening to her songs: what i hear is only tip of the iceberg. But now iceberg is under ocean surface forever.

Rest in peace, Amy
