Goodbye Amy ....

I've always loved the legend that is Miss Winehouse- I loved her quirky style, beehive hair, pin up girl tattoos, headscarfs, common cockney accent, black flicked out eyeliner and ballet pumps. Most of all I loved her distinguised voice that could only be rivalled by female jazz singers of the 1940s  such as billy holiday, dinah washington and ella johnson. A rare talent and beautiful songbird, amy will be a legend forever, kept alive by her amazing and soul searching songs. A sad loss for her family,friends,  fans and the music of the 21st century.

The only time I had the priveledge to see Amy was at T in the Park a few years ago and this is her ironically singing the last song she sung at her final performance in Belgrade:

Goodbye to a truely beautiful and genuine music artist.
