Chest Clutching


I'm slow to catch on to things I know that . Amy Winehouse isn't exactly news today but my god, what a voice this woman has. I was at the hairdressers yesterday and heard the song "Tears dry on their own" and pictured in my head a generous black singer from the 50's. You see this small, frail, damaged woman and the amazing voice that she has. I've watched a few of her clips today of this song here and here and WOW, this song has really got to me. It's not just the song, it's knowing that she has had a god awful time of things, knowing that someone so gifted, really gifted, can be so self destructive, so terribly sad. Thanks for the music though Amy, bring on so so much more.
