Died exactly ten years ago today. Can't believe how quickly that has gone.
One of my favourite artists from any era. I simply love her music and listen to her in any mood. Sure she was a bit ropey when she was hammered or off her head but on the few occasions I saw her live when she wasn't she was absolutely magic.
Any other Amy fans on here?

'Sad looking back with hindsight her appearance on never mind the buzzcocks.'
Bet there's a few of them on that show who wish those clips would go away forever. Just wrong how they treated her.

Although the Preston, Huey and Donny Tourette episodes did amuse me.

Even her best song wasn't a patch on The Zutons original.

Zutons have dined out on those royalties ever since though.

I thought she was fine on the show. She was mates in real life with Simon Amstell (who is a legend btw and the show collapsed when he left). It was just banter between them and I thought she came across as a tough SOB on the show in a way that lots of other guests just failed.

Tears dry on their own is her best imo, reminds me of cracking northern soul

Never got the fuss.
If she hadn’t topped herself nobody would care about her contribution to music

Regardless of whether you’re a fan or not, that’s absolute guff.

I dunno, atleast as good as anything the likes of Adele has done, and certainly better than the shiiit people like lady gaga and stormzy churn out. Didn’t break any boundaries though, so you have a point

She’s the Tupac of jazz. Decent, nothing special, but died young so GOAT status
