I prefer to pay my respect more to the 80+ innocent people that were murdered in Norway than a drug abusing artist who had money anything can buy and abused her privileges. Just keeping things in perspective. The only positive that came out of that, is another example of how drugs ruin lives. I have no sympathy for crack heads.

No one truly knows what that woman was going through. Maybe she was depressed or something or maybe she felt like that she wasn't really worth a damn to her self so she decided to ruin herself so that she wouldn't think about her problems. Its sad what happened to those people in Norway, that was really messed up. But because Amy Winehouse was a drug-using, Grammy winning artist she doesn't deserve condolences?? Come on people that's really low. No matter what she has done in her life she was still a person that had people who loved her. No one truly knows what that woman was going through.

I was trying to keep things in perspective. People are getting murdered against their will around the world. I have lost friends to things in ways that they had no choice and seen many families get destroyed as a result and I see people making a fuss for an artist who abused her rights. I recognize what she did musically believe me but just keeping things in perspective that is all. She had many chances to clean her act up. She dug her own grave. Its cool, you're entitled to your own opinions. Sure I feel for her family but I think her life and actions were more an embarrassment for her family and the fans rather than influential.

That's why her death is a big deal.

Just the way it is. Bottom line is she was famous and people know who she is. So of course her death will be covered on a grander scale. Is it right? Not really. Just the way it is.

Biggie said it best in one of his songs "your nobody untill somebody kills you"....in this case "your nobody untill you die". Which is said to say but true.
