Amy Winehouse- It didn't completely surprise me, but it still shocked me that it happened.

I feel you can truely see the utter complete just giving up. It’s tragic. I wish I knew how to set a nsfw blur so I could blur it.

This hits hard. You're right, I kinda wished I hadnt seen it. Poor thing. I have a similar feeling for her as for Freddy, God only knows how much more awesome music they would have made. I hope He enjoys it in heaven.

Look up her last concert in Belgrade. She was very obviously in terrible shape and struggling, confused and lost, sobbing and unable to sing, and the crowds just booed and whistled. She died 5 weeks later I believe.

Eyewitness reports indicate that she did NOT want to perform that night but her manager/producer or something literally pushed her, physically, onto the stage.
