REMEMBERING AMY WINEHOUSE (1983-2011)

Tributes from across the world have been pouring in for singer AMY WINEHOUSE -who was found dead Saturday in her London home. Her former producer Mark Ronson said: "She was my musical soul mate and like a sister to me. This is one of the saddest days of my life."
The troubled soul diva, who shot to fame with “Rehab,” won five Grammy Awards and sold more than 5 million albums worldwide. And that figure is set to rise, with the U.K.’s Official Charts Company reporting a surge in downloads and sales of Winehouse’s songs for the past 48 hours.

I hear people saying what a wasted talent, on the contrary, she hasn't made an album in 5 years and her work will stand the test of time. I prefer to remember her in her full glory, tattoo's out in tiny skinny jeans belting out hits to make angels weep. Here's a look back at some of Amy Winehouse's most notable hits:

YOU KNOW I'M NO GOOD This is one of the things that made her so special.She was a unique talent and one of the few "true" musical pioneers.


LOVE IS A LOSING GAME quite simply the best female voice i ever heard when amy was at the top of her game! it was all so effortless!


REHAB she hasn't always been such a mess, this was one of her best performances! rip Amy!...you were a great singer!

Winehouse’s name joins a list of other singer-songwriters who died aged 27: Brian Jones, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Kurt Cobain among them. =O

Country singer JASON ALDEAN teamed up with rapper LUDACRIS on this remix studio version of 'Dirt Road Anthem', a country-rap hybrid hit from Aldean's latest album My Kinda Party. I think Luda and Jason make a badass duo. LIKE!!!

IF U EVER...



IF YOU EVER
by Sinead O'connor


The memories u bring
Make my eyes both sting
I can't help that pain that's tearing
At my throat and my chest
Where everything is kept
When I start remembering
How the clothes that u wore
Made my heart so sore
I just couldn't think anymore
Of u once u were gone
And it's been so long
I've been carrying on
And if u ever come home in the night
Darling I'd treat u right,
Oh darling I'd treat u right
U got into your car and drove as far
As u could and even further
And no matter how I sang
I just never can
Stop needing your hand
Though got into my own car and drove as far
As I could so that I might forget u
I never could, does that I'm no good?
If it doesn't it should
But if u ever came home in the night
Darling I'd treat u right
Oh darling I'd treat u right
If u ever came home in the night
Darling I'd treat u right
Darling I'd treat u right
And I'd treat u right


*This beautiful song was taken from SINEAD O'CONNOR's 2000 cd, Faith and Courage- an incredible album laced with excellent beat and controversial lyrics. Sinead's songs never fail in getting you to think outside of the box, and this CD leaves room for no exceptions. Forget her antics, just listen to her music! =)
