Amy Winehouse: Music Industry’s Angel
Amy Winehouse was England’s Janis Joplin. Without question, Amy is singing with the angels now. Winehouse and Joplin may very well be recording duets produced by Saint Peter himself.
The legendary songstress established a legacy of greatness. This celebrity was one of a kind in a full house of Hollywood stars. You see the spotlight shined on her everyday. Also, no one can question her amazing abilities.
I highly recommend Amy (2015) because the documentary film showcases the entertainer’s originality. You’ll like how the music artist became unique. Plus, you’ll appreciate her vocals much better after seeing this expert performer go to work.
At her peak, she wasn’t more popular than Britney Spears; but that didn’t matter. All that matters is the music she gave to the world. And the music she gave was a life of empathy and kindness.
In a sense, Amy’s name is synonymous with music. Scratch that. Amy means music in every language!Plus, like Lady Gaga the young lady was fearless and she made bold moves.
Winehouse passionately crooned. Maybe, she was best known for Back to Black or back to Rehab. So the story goes…In her own words to paraphrase a bit “Yes I been black but when I come back…they tried to make me go to rehab. I won’t go.” She said NO NO to celebrity rehab.

What Chuck Berry is to Rock and Roll, what Bono is to U2, Amy Winehouse was to Neo Soul. She developed new sounds in the studio booth and on the concert stage. Who can deny Amy Winehouse her legendary status? She rightfully claimed her throne in England like Janis did in America.
In a nutshell, Amy meant the world to the music industry because she pioneered a creative sound. Her vocal chords stretch toward the heavens. It is my honor and privilege to write this tribute to a great soul.
