Amy Winehouse, 27, found dead at her London flat

Lovely, from Brand.

But...does anyone know what demons Amy was fighting?  Her folks look like they're quite loving and cared about her.  What pain was she looking to numb?

I'm wondering about this, as well.  I've read that even truly talented famous people don't think they deserve what they have, and dread what will happen when/if they're all washed up and it all goes away.  But then, Amy seemed troubled before she made it big, so what was up with her...?

According to her, she never wanted to be 'big'.  Maybe she didn't know she had a choice?  That she could just NOT take the big contracts and just play in pubs the rest of her life if she wanted to?

Maybe one day we will know what actually happened with her.  I love her music, and I miss her already.

Wow, that was lovely what Russell said about her and about addiction.  I'm blown away with his words.

I totally agree Mandy......words said from experience and from the heart, and hopefully will help others with these terrible addictions.

Words spoken from experience certainly mean the most.  I agree, Sue, and I certainly hope people learn from this loss.
