Really sad news. I didn't like her music, but there's no denying she was such a talented woman.

People who say she deserved it and whatnot can't understand the concept of addiction.

I go away for half an hour and come back to this...speechless

RIP.

Amy Winehouse's dad Mitch is on a flight back from the US and may not be aware of the tragic news yet

I feel so sorry for her dad. He did so much to try and get her off the drugs.

He'll have been told. What a horrible way to find out, he can't even be there in the same country

I'm actually in shock, R.I.P.

I'm shellshocked :| I know she had problems but I really wasn't expecting this. She was a fantastic talent and a true music personality, she'll be sorely missed.

Its a Fair question.
Without the Booze and Drugs
she would be alive, maybe.

The media know of her death before her Dad that is tragic.

This exactly.

Such a tragic loss. People always joked that it would happen and she would die young but it's so surprisingly shocking! I'm just shocked.

Historically speaking I can see her being this generations Janis Joplin when it's all said and done.

They were both 27 when they died as well

Adding to the great urban legend of rock and pop personalities who died at 27.

Jimi Hendrix is another one that springs to mind.

Uh, no.

Amy, while marginally talented, will not be remember to future generations. She didn't make any impact. Sad about her death though. I can't say I'm surprised. Did you see her last month on stage, falling over, and singing the wrong songs? The rumor was, she was shooting heroin.

No need to panic guys, Sherlock is in the building.

[Ammi]

Such a sad waste, her family have had to watch her do this to herself, its a tragedy RIP Amy

[lily.]

I don't think she's in the same league as the others in the 27 club to be honest, but it remains to be seen how she's remembered.

Neither do I Lily. As you say, rightly: it remains to be seen. Although: i get the distinct feeling: there will be much sympathy coming from the heavy drug users all over the place - whether they were fans or not - making someone into some sort of 'legend' because they had a bit of talent, a few good songs then spent the remainder of the following years doing not much other than being out of minds on whatever the drug of the hour was: there are more deserving cases worthy of being exalted status.

Exactly .....

[Blink_Me]

I'm sorry, but she threw her life away. Anyone would have loved to have what she had; the fame, the money, the appreciation from millions, and most of all.... the talent. And she was only young to top it off.

It's a shame.

[mkdfan]

OMG bloody hell!
I hoped she would comeback clean. R.I.P!

[Ninastar]

ugh I'm still so upset. I could have seen it coming but it doesn't make it any less sad.

[Smithy]

just seen the news
