I do drugs. Most people I know do drugs. The vast majority of people do drugs. Be they legal or illegal. You can't use an extreme circumstance like the death of a chronic polydrug addict to justify some sort of generalised anti drugs standpoint.

It's B.S. and it has no place here.

She seriously must have done SO MUCH in one go. I don't take drugs but I'm assuming it was an overdose and not just constant use?

Just remembered that I asked my mum to get the album when it came out. I still have it. I might upload all the songs to itunes just to listen to them again

Not to her family it isn't. dead is dead no matter how it happened, people will grieve the same. Have some respect

I'm quite shocked, it's not unexpected by any stretch but I always expected her to make a comeback one day.

This was in answer to someone saying the norway news should stop and amy should be reported instead.

Letmeinhad a very valid point.

She thought she was invincible... and in some ways... so did her fans I think, me being one of them.

Perhaps the thing is to some she was an idol, the story in Norway isnt connected to they lives has Amy was, but any lives loss is a loss. My heart goes out all of those who have lost someone .

It's just a shame she couldn't sort herself out. Her legend status is for her music only. She is no role model outside of the recording studio

How are people comparing her death to what happened in Norway yesterday?!

It's not a fucking competition!

No I have
SkyNewsHD on
and BBCNews all day.



SkyNews are the award winning Breaking News.
Dusty BBC are way behind,



As for Norway
Jon Snows Live report on Ch4 news , just now
was top form.


The BBC Loops so much
not enough live Reports.




Amy may have been a junkie
but as she was also a Award Winning Star
so it had to go on the news right away.

Norway story.

Amy story.

They are different. No comparison can be made other than the fact that deaths occurred.

Obviously it's sad both have died, but seriously people (facebook,twitter etc.) need to stop comparing. It is by no means the same.

Why, because she had a deadly substance abuse problem?

I highly doubt she thought she was invincible. In fact I'm willing to bet my house that she felt quite destructible all covered in cold sick on a grotty couch.

I wouldn't have thought 1 successful album would justify the "legend" status - we''ll have to see what her standing is in 25 years time .....
