I've got around 120 people on my Facebook. There was one Norway related post when that news broke. There were 9 Winehouse related posts when that news broke.

It's all about what touches people's lives directly. Like it or not, music has that power to reach many people, and touch their lives directly, all over the world. Other than smell, which is one of the 5 basic human senses, only music can instantly transport you to a time and place in your mind. Music can bring together people from diverse lands and cultures. It connects people. Music is very powerful. Short of being a politician, it's hard to ever touch the lives of quite as many people. It may not seem like it to the outsider, but music & fame are not only remarkably powerful, but they're a huge weight, a responsibility, and a burden on the soul...especially to the sensitive [read: most artists]. It flat kills many. Fame has hurt my family. Fame is actually one of the few things I'm truly afraid of in this life. Fame is not a nice thing for most who experience it, and yet celebrity seems to be something that so many seek... Scary. Sad.

It is sad , but I know of at leas 4 other women that died a drug related death within a few hours of Ms. Winehouse. They will not make the news or be discussed or be discussed out side of their families or Parole / Probation offices.
With no disrespect to Ms. Winehouse she was no better than any of them.

She was worse than them because she glamorized that lifestyle, and had a negative influence on the world. She got what she deserved, haha too bad, don't want to go to rehab, no she do nt have to anymore

I doubt there's any "scientific" way to prove her influence was more negative than positive. There's not much glamor in OD'ing on your living room floor, and nobody with any sense, will aspire to end up the way she did. If anything, she's a poster child for how not to do it. JC

Not calling bullshit on the fact that music has the power to reach and touch people's lives directly. But that's not why people worship these scumsuckers.
