Was it meant to be the way it is?

Amy Winehouse - Back to black

Amy Winehouse... one of those artists you just love because she's so real. For the music from the heart you can really feel her. This week I played her music for people who have never heard it. The only things they could say was who else died the same age as she did and what the news said. Really news is not what I expected to hear. Music that shakes your soul after listening to it. Tunes and beats that can take you back in the day like Etta James, while keeping you in the present with Jigga. But oh well it's done now and still like before I think  she was an amazing artist who like everyone else in this world... has issues or should I say had issues.  Issues that ultimately got the best of her aww L RIP. Her work was creative and there are songs I like. Her voice reminds me of singers back in the day and I would not down play another creative or person for their struggles, we all have issues.

Why is it people pay so much attention to how you died rather than how you lived your life????

Sure Amy's was permeated with issues as well as parts where her talents showed through and she was able to touch the world through her talents. Isn’t that what it’s about?

Check it out her album Back to Blackhttp://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=bettnadi10&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=B000N2G3RY
