I was sickened to hear of her tragic death and more sickened by the heartless potshots on the internet about her passing. She will be missed, such a lovely, talented, beautiful, wounded woman.

My girlfriend sings a medley of Amy's songs and I mixed it up. My girlfriend is a huge fan and I was just beginning to get to know her work in the past year. In the process of making this, I began to further appreciate Amy's work and also, be further at a loss over those battling demons such as addiction. All I can hope for is more honesty, compassion, and just general caring. All life is special and my aunt lost the battle a few years ago but somehow Amy's youth and talent makes it more tragic.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWDepjYOZxwAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-80000297811449762312011-07-26T01:48:54.139-07:002011-07-26T01:48:54.139-07:00Thank you.

It's so fucked up and so wrong. Somebody DIED. Somebody that was not only an amazingly talented singer, but who was genuinely a good person before her addiction got the best of her. It makes me so angry how cruel people can be in a time like this, so thank you.

The outpouring of love that she didn't have enough of during her too short life is flooding over the internet now, overwhelming the minority of cruel voices that belittled her. I favourited her song "Back to Black" on her Vevo YouTube channel too. <br /> <br /> Thank you for posting the lovely song and the tribute to her.
