Goodbye Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse, the great Jazz-Soul-R&B artiste had gone. Kinda sad that another very talented, or should I say another exceptionally talented artiste had left us so early. Although people come and people go, but I duno why so many artiste that I like or applause had gone so ... . sudden to me or to so many.

Artiste that left early Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Freddie Mercury, Teresa Teng, Huang Jia Jun(Beyond), Michael Hutchence, Kurt Cobain, Leslie Cheung, Anita Mui, Roman Tam, Michael Jackson ... and now Amy Winehouse. Some gone by illness, some gone by mishap, some gone by ... .

Well, in fact I just realise Amy had written so many of her tracks. How ignorance of me. Now I feel more for her songs, in fact, loving her songs so much more now. I duno is it because she had gone too soon or I admire her as a song writter and singer or she writes those songs on her Back To Black album on her true accounts or feeling for her lyrics' content or she sing so uniquely appealing style or feel some connection with her coz.. well, I heard during interviews, she may talk to you, but at times she just remain silent.. Well, that sound familiar to me, bcoz sometimes I talk and sometimes I just remain silent.

They are people who complain they dun have enough. How much is enough? 1 million? 5 million? or 10 million? What is happiness? Money? Or state of mind? Yeah.. . well, I thought we need both. Maybe I should say it's a balance of both. Maybe sometimes, life's simple pleasure is a pure joy afterall.

Treasure what you have ...
Enjoy while you can ...
Life is a short trip.

Goodbye Amy Winehouse.
