So after the weekend news of Amy Winehouse's death I have declared it Amy Winehouse Week here at the Casa du Borghese. I enjoyed her music more than just about any other female singer, she really brought a fresh sound to the scene when she arrived. I so hoped to see her perform live one day and maybe even share a drink with her. So if no one minds I'd think I'll do a little ode to Amy and feature some of my favorite songs this week from Ms Winehouse and enjoy my Tangauray! In my Bed is probably my favorite Winehouse song and it is rare we see her without the trademark bee hive. A Mistress theme song.
It is really sad. I have never been sad or upset when a well known celebrity has died. Especially those of whom I wasn't a fan. I didn't know these people and it would be hard to upset.
ReplyDeleteBut when I learnt of her death I was very shocked. My eyes welled up and I was very sad.
she looks fantastic.
ReplyDeletedamn I'm sad
I am a little heartbroken to have lost her.
ReplyDeleteShe was one of my favorite artists of the last few years and she had enormous potential.
I actually started crying when I read the first article. I hate it when such creative people are lost to us.

Amy is rocking in heaven. RIP AMY
ReplyDeleteWell I think a tribute is a wonderful idea.This song is jammin! It is so sad, because she was so beautiful, healthy and you could see the light and the life in her eyes!! If you don't have the Frank album you need to get it!!
ReplyDeleteWow she sounds so much like Billie Holiday to me. I'm sorry i never listened to her music much up until recently.
ReplyDeleteGawd, that voice is so enchanting, and this has to be one of her best videos. Nice idea for the week, be intresting to see your favorites.
ReplyDeleteGreat video, but watch the gin!
ReplyDeleteMind of Mine and Craig- I hear you both. I too was upset and some tears welled while listening to cd's. Her death moved me and this has never happened. Her music just tickled my soul. Thank you both for checking in and come back soon!
ReplyDeleteA fitting tribute!
ReplyDeleteA once in a lifetime talent & an amazing song. We are listening to her here at Post Apocalyptic Bohemia.
ReplyDeleteYou are loved!
