Very sad to hear the news about the death of the singer Amy Winehouse aged just 27. She was a very troubled girl and in many respects the news is no surprise. But nonetheless, it was still a shock.
Sadly her death was something of a self fulfilling prophecy as she had once told a former personal assistant that she feared she'd be dead at 27 - like Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin and Kurt Cobain. The assistant revealed in a 2008 interview that "She reckoned she would join the 27 club of rock stars who died at that age."
How much that prediction was playing on her mind this weekend its impossible to say, but she was a rare and undoubted talent, and the world's just a little bit poorer for her loss.
