You saved me lots of work trying to explain to my friends and family why I just felt in love with her too.
Here the history;
Yesterday I went to the Library across the street get some books and DVDS/CDs – they are free – and I found Amy’s “Back to Black” available so I brought it home.
Nor that I expected good music, or my friend, we were just curious why people talk so much about this singer.

My friend even said something about her strangle with addictions and “predictable” /possible death – I believe lots of people expect the same.

But for the ones that know her, as me now, we would feel sadness, a sense of connection, and – for sure – try to send beyond the regular paths, one little feather of hope over her shoulders.
You are not alone!

Many good singers went through life and died and just after their death people would say:” wow, she was a genius, a goddess of this and that”.
I feel somehow a deep sadness in my soul for those great artists the world lost for their loneness and incomprehension surrounding them.

Maybe your words will help somehow, maybe my small contribution too; I don’t want cross my arms and just let it go…
She has an amazing voice, strong personality, and, copying your own words:” it’s a relief to see a female artist who allows herself that most verboten of indulgences: being human”.

Great artist, much younger than me, making me dance and feel free.
What else one can love more?
