Watched "AMY"- The Amy Winehouse Movie

[Brasky]

Man she was a dope chick. She died at my age, so that kinda shook me.

Probably a once in a generation talent. Too bad she had a piece of shit boyfriend who got her hooked on heroin and cocaine.

Was never a huge fan at the time of her music, but the movie is pretty incredible, and did a good job incorporating her song writing ability and talent. She wrote and produced everything herself.

Nothing new. Hell, Janis Joplin was a once in lifetime singer too. And Nancy Philips was her down fall. I have never liked the "Mamas and Papas" since I found out how Nancy would get others addicted...

@Brasky hey dude, amy was a talent no doubt, and left us way too soon....but do you also know about all the other 27 year old musicians/rock stars who checked out in the past at that young age??

It's quite the exclusive club.

Yeah. Cobain, Joplin, Hendrix, Morrison.

I'm coming up on my 28th and it's a fucking miracle.

Something about that point in a person's life maybe?

Anyway this is an awesome one:

She was forced into a lot of major hits through a guy by the name of Mark Ronson. She never would have covered this song if he didn't beg her to, and she basically turned it into a timeless classic:

Her live renditions are better.
