What a great talent lost, her voice and songs were great. The police haven't said if it was drug/drink related, but it seems likely. She was the epitome of live fast, die young.
Addiction is such a huge destroyer of lives. Just chatting to a friend tonight about someone we both know who is very successful, very rich, and totally hooked to drink and drugs. His life is miserable. Today, he spent the whole day drinking in his well-appointed apartment, one of five homes he owns, totally out of his head. It's real crash and burn stuff, but it seldom hits the headlines unless it's someone famous.
RIP Amy. I hope she finds the peace she never got in this life.
