We've been through this before.  Now a lot gets written... but is anybody listening?  Try the BBC One Session recording.  She was an effing genius, and there will never be another like her.

Russell Brand has written someting rather good on his blog,

and Tony Bennett:

"Amy Winehouse was an artist of immense proportions. I am deeply saddened to learn of her tragic passing."
"She was an extraordinary musician with a rare intuition as a vocalist and I am truly devastated that her exceptional talent and has come to such an early end," 
"She was a lovely and intelligent person and when we recorded together she gave a soulful and extraordinary performance."
"I was honored to have the opportunity to sing with her,"
"It had been my sincere hope that she would be able to overcome the issues she was battling and I send my deepest sympathy to her father Mitchell, her entire family and all of those who loved her."

the white line is annoying but this recording is gorgeous:



"Back To Black"

He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.....

I go back to us

I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to

Black, black, black, black, black, black, black,
I go back to
I go back to

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black
