Appreciation: Amy Winehouse
by Jess Harvell.
That’s what makes Winehouse’s loss so acute from a musical standpoint, and it’s what the legions of trend-grabbers and American Idol hopefuls essaying her songs never quite get. She could do a straight, tearful ballad like “Love is a Losing Game”, something you could imagine any number of singers adequately covering. But in Winehouse’s best songs, there’s always something odd, pained, and ineluctably personal in lyric and voice alike. Record execs will likely be grateful that Winehouse’s brief success opened up a lucrative market for “real” music. Listeners can lament the fact that we lost someone who understood that “realness” is a sham without the candor and distinctiveness to back up the chops.
![Some time ago my friend Juli showed me the design above. Her sister, Carolina Gallo, had made it. All of us great fans. Loved it instantly.
It’s a sad sad day for me. Even though we all knew this was not going to end in a good way, I didn’t want it to happen, not now. What are we going to do now?
I’ll miss her. I’ll miss the Amy I once knew.
RIP.
