These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Farewell, Amy
Here she is from 2004, performing my second favorite Amy Winehouse song. I'm posting it as my tribute to a performer who was a sharper songwriter and better singer than the tabloid headlines would lead you to believe. God bless your troubled soul. I'll miss you.
Please note: If you have a WordPress blog, I can't return the favor and comment on your post unless you change your settings. WordPress hates me these days.
You were the first person I thought of when I heard she died. I know you LOVE that other song. She looked so healthy in this video, didn't she.
ReplyDeleteSuch a shame - I think living was just too hard for her. I hope her soul is at peace now.
How tragic.
