Amy Winehouse: discuss.

Gone too soon. Which is your favorite song of hers... and why?

I like: F-me Pumps ... because I think we ALL know/or knew/or dates/or were girls like that. (It's also a cute video.)

I also like You Know I'm No Good ... because it reminds me of a time in my life that I have fond memories of, but that I'm also grateful to have survived (if that makes any sense).

She makes me happy and sad at the same time. So tragic... but what a gift she gave us.

She never wanted the world wide fame and looked like a deer in the headlights when she achieved it. She couldn't handle it.
Mix that with her toxic boyfriend and tragedy happened.

I especially love to watch videos of her singing before her album Back to Black.

The whole production company is on board..I find Frank unlistenable for the most part, but this meteor shines and melts the atmosphere after that.
