    She was never in the same league.

    To put it simply, yes it was a death, and deaths are sad, but it was a death that was caused by her own foolishness. To those saying "you can't wake up and choose to stop drugs" well you can ruddy well choose not to start them in the first place.
    And to the person who said "you don't wake up one morning and decide you're going to try heroine today", unless you are suggesting she was force fed it ofcourse it was her bloody choice to take it.

    Sympathise over the loss of a talet, not the loss of a drug addict who ruined her own life.
    have you watched the news in the past two days or been on the internet outside of habbox forum? amy winehouse is a household name and nothing less. everyone knows her, whether for her controversial personal life or her music. fact. back to black had a HUGE impact on the industry at the time, opening doors for artists like adele and duffy and winning **** loads of awards and selling **** loads of records, as pointed out by cocaine above. you are beyond stupid if you think amy winehouse is only "b-list"

    And whose fault was it that she took them? her own.

    If I offer you the chance to stick your hand in the fire and you take it, who is responsible? you are.



    That is what drugs do to you my friend, Amy Winehouse was not born say, mentally backward, which is the picture you wish to portray - that occured due to her lifestyle choices and the people she chose to associate herself with.



    Her boyfriend didn't 'drug her up' - she did that herself, and from a young age as her childhood friends described. My friends from time to time smoke weed, nobody 'drugs them up' - they choose to do that themselves, it is their own (in my opinion stupid) choice that they wish to do this. Amy, from what i've seen, was a rather feisty and independent woman and was certainly not a pushover (not that excuses bad acts anyway).

    Her family did try, even in the glare of the public which they were led to do - but you cannot help somebody who does not want help and who ultimately can only help themselves.



    Where have I been disrespectful? I simply take issue with the likes of yourself who apologise on behalf of people who choose to take drugs and defend drugs themselves, the likes of who seem to think that drugs are a disease you can strangely 'catch' - drug taking isn't a disease nor should we pretend it is one and maybe when we start treating it like a bad habit brought about by choice then maybe we'll avoid another death like this one thanks (again) to drugs.

    I rather like Winehouse myself, but that doesn't mean she's not responsible for her actions.



    Absolute nonsense, I don't need to meet Jesus Christ to know he was the son of God nor do I need to meet Adolf Hitler to know he was an evil man. An addiction is simply a word for the weak minded, you become 'addicted' because you allow yourself to become 'addicted' and fail to stop yourself, instead preferring to take drugs and live the lifestyle that they lead you upon. A thief steals because he wishes to, a drug user takes drugs because they want to.

    To prove this point I ask the question, does anyone think the chances of Pete Doherty giving up drugs after one of his friends dying (as i'm sure many already have, we've all heard of the incident at that party) are there? of course not, these people want to take drugs and they know the harm they do - her mother and father warned publically, and she has now sadly faced the apparent consquences of her actions.
    i cba to read that, you're too boring, sorry. fact is, she's dead, and i'm sad. so are her family, and her fans. you can blame whoever and say it was her fault or that she deserved it whatever i don't give a ****. bottom line is a very talented woman has died and that makes me sad. i don't care what your opinion is.
    you can be my daddy

    This is such a shame,
    She really was good at her music..
    But she had enough money to really get off the drugs therefore I feel sorry for her family, but not for her... (which sounds weird)

    RIP.

    Money won't get you off drugs mate. If anything, it'll make it harder for the addict to kick the habit as they can afford as much as they want

    Actually, in that case "crazy frog" has had more singles that reached number one in the charts than Winehouse.

    Well obviously you do give a **** because everytime someone disagrees with your opinion of her being a Goddess, you feel the need to jump down their throat with insults about them being Habbox Forum addicts. Yes she's talented and yes she was a good singer, and yes everyone respects the dead because nobody should disrespect a human life, but you need to understand that there are differing opinions regarding addictions and not everyone needs to adore her.

    i never once claimed she was a goddess? i just adore one of her albums and think the other is okay, and i can appreciate true musical talent LOL. i never accused anyone of being a "habbox forum" addict either? i also like the way you chose to ignore my PM to you explaining my personal experience linked to this situation.

    Someone else mentioned the Habbox Forum thing earlier, so it wasn't just you. Apologies!

    Well I think you've answered your question there then. You adore one of her albums and you can appreciate "true musical talent." People don't have to agree with you!

    I chose to ignore your PM because I don't feel sensitive personal issues should be brought into such discussions, although I am sorry for your loss nonetheless.

    i don't care if people like her music or not. i've never shoved my opinion on that down anyone's throat. but you can't deny the impact she made, you just can't.

    and my "personal issue" was brought into it privately because it goes against the way you accused me of being "blinded by celebrity culture" when i couldn't care less if it was amy winehouse or someone i've never heard of. drug and alcohol addictions are serious things and people need to be more aware and understanding of it because it doesn't just ruin the lives of the person in the question, but those around them as well.
    you can be my daddy
