To be completely honest, I wasn't really a big fan of Amy's until I heard this performance from her. Unreal, soooo much passion & emotion. Just beautiful.

The effects of her substance abuse and bulimia were a distraction, but Amy's talent still rings true. Here are a couple more of my faves:

I had no idea she was bulimic. I figured she was deteriorating from the substance abuse. Such a talent, very sad!

Bulimia was the dark secret which made her alcoholism even more dangerous. Unfortunately, Amy surrounded herself with enablers who seemed more concerned with money than her well-being.

Awesome - thanks for sharing, Ryan. It's so crazy, we never fully understand how tortured some of these celebrities are until it's too late.

This band, Lake Street Dive, played at the Syracuse Jazz Fest last weekend. Prior to that I had never heard of them. They are FANTASTIC!! The lead singer, Rachael Price, reminds me of Amy Winehouse in her beautiful vocal control and range.
