Amy Winehouse Didn't Want to Sign Up For This

Amy Winehouse.  What a character, eh?

Although the cause of her death last Saturday is still unconfirmed, I doubt that anybody was surprised by the news.  She had been on self-destruct mode for goodness knows how long.  People weren't shocked... they were saddened. 

She's a very talented woman and like many other people who've got immense musical talent, she didn't have the strength to wrestle her demons.  Instead, she tried to escape them.  I'm certain it wasn't her intention, but by the time Amy Winehouse' body gave up, she unknowingly signed up for the infamous 27 Club -- the group of musicians who died at the very young age of 27.  The member list includes Jimi Hendrix, Janice Joplin, Kurt Cobain and many other high-profile names in music. 

 What a shame she had to die so young.  Was your life really so bad, Amy? I hope your tears really do dry on their own where you are now.
