So now Amy Winehouse is dead. Before her, at age 27 according to CNN, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain all died at 27.
I was not a huge fan of her music, but then again I only really heard whatever was on the radio. I have to admit she had an interesting style, and I always dig the throaty-voiced women. Call it jealousy. It's the perfect voice for the 1-800-sex calls, isn't it?
But part of me is irked that she's gone. Lots of talent (hello, winner of 5 Grammys) wasted. Addiction is hard to handle, and I can appreciate that, but there's still a part of me that says, "Idiot". Life is already too short.
