Description
Amy WinehouseÕs bright star burned out on July 23 2011.
Amy lived a rock-star lifestyle to the max, replacing an addiction to drugs with a battle against alcohol.
When she died, aged 27, she joined a long list of musicians whose lives had been tragically cut short at the same age Ð the likes of Jim Hendrix, Kurt Cobain and Jim Morrison.
She burst onto the scene with her debut album, ÒFrankÓ, in 2003.
Her follow-up, ÒBack To BlackÓ won five Grammy Awards.
Her chart success, though, would always be measured against a personal life full of trauma.
She wrote ÒBack To BlackÓ about Blake Fielder-Civil, who she married in 2007. But they spent little time together as a married couple as Blake was sent to prison.
Despite divorcing they would remain in love with each other until she died. There were always plenty of other men in AmyÕs life, though.
In the end she died alone in her bed. A bodyguard kept her protected from the outside world, but nobody could protect her from herselfÉ
