Amy Winehouse died today. Lorraine and I were in the middle of our lovely afternoon tea at The Browns Hotel and Andy sent a text saying she had been found dead in her Camden home.Not a supprise but sad none the less. I was a huge fan of her 'heart on her sleeve' lyrics, torch song style and sultry music. Maybe such brilliance can only be birthed out of torment. My favourite songs will remain Brother, Love is a Losing Game and Valerie. A short life but an indelible mark on the music world. Maybe she had given everything she had and it was her time to go but thank you Amy, for sharing your pain and love in your artistry.
