It’s been a year since Amy
Winehouse left the world so suddenly. While she appeared to get her life back
together, she succumbed to old demons and passed at the age of 27 (joining the
infamous celebrity ‘27 club’).
Winehouse
left the world with a soulful, heartfelt repertoire that paved the way for
fellow British acts to international stardom, including Duffy, Leona Lewis, and
the biggest British act of this generation, Adele.
The short time Winehouse spent in the music
industry is remarkable, considering she only released two albums, but
contributed with so many other notable acts (including Tony Bennett, winning a
posthumous Grammy this year for her duet with him).
