SO FAR AWAY

I literally cried when I knew that Carole King's So Far Away was played at Amy's funeral, right after her dad Mitch gave a touching eulogy. He said, Amy always loved this song and asked everybody to sing along, which they did. Good night angel, I will always remember your beautiful soul forever..   So far away Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore It would be so fine to see your face at my door Doesn't help to know you're just time away Long ago I reached for you and there you stood   Holding you again could only do me good Oh, how I wish I could   But you're so far away One more song about moving along the highway Can't say much of anything that's new If I could only work this life out my way   I'd rather spend it being close to you But you're so far away Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore It would be so fine to see your face at my door Doesn't help to know you're so far away Traveling around sure...

For AMY

This is by far the most touching and thoughtful tribute I've ever read since Amy's tragic death. It written perfectly by Amy's close friend Russel Brand. Please read it till the last word...  FOR AMY When you love someone who suffers from the disease of addiction you await the phone call. There will be a phone call. The sincere hope is that the call will be from the addict themselves, telling you they’ve had enough, that they’re ready to stop, ready to try something new. Of course though, you fear the other call, the sad nocturnal chime from a friend or relative telling you it’s too late, she’s gone. Frustratingly it’s not a call you can ever make it must be received. It is impossible to intervene. I’ve known Amy Winehouse for years. When I first met her around Camden she was just some twit in a pink satin jacket shuffling round bars with mutual friends, most of whom were in cool Indie bands or peripheral Camden figures Withnail-ing their way through life on impotent c...

What Perez sez

To say we are deeply saddened today is an understatement. And what is hurting us even more is the response her untimely death is eliciting from a lot of people. What we want more than anything is for people to know the Amy Winehouse that we knew. She was clearly troubled, but there was not an ounce of evil in her body. She was not a bad person. She just surrounded herself with bad people. Amy Winehouse was one of the sweetest people we have ever met, and it is such a tragedy that the world has lost such an incredible talent. We remember all the times we spent with Amy and the thing she wanted more than anything else in this life was not fame and fortune but somebody to love her. That's a deep desire we had in common and would talk about a lot. She dreamt of cooking for her man and starting a family. She'd share her favorite recipes and dream of simpler life. Oh, and she loved music. A lot! One time, we went with her to a record store, she asked an employee where...

Amy Winehouse 1983 - 2011

http://m.holymoly.com/music/blog/amy-winehouse-1983-201158264 Amy Winehouse 1983 - 2011 There’s an awful lot of talk about “real music” these days. A bogus and myopic attempt to distance the transparently marketed commercial pop acts from those we hope will be this generation’s artists of legacy; those we can point to in our old age and say, “You hear that son, that’s the music of my day. Proper pop stars, with songs sung from the heart with voices that could make the hardest of bastards cry like babies.” It’s mostly nostalgia and nonsense. But whatever real means, Amy Winehouse was it. The most talented, charismatic and brilliant singer, songwriter and performer I’ve ever witnessed. And I’m devastated that she’s gone. The first time I ever heard of Amy Winehouse was when, in the summer of 2003, I was given her album Frank to review for a music magazine called Bang. I read the press release and was filled with a familiar dread. I think it mentioned nu-soul a...

an angel has gone, a legend is born

It was almost 12AM local time when I checked my twitter timeline and bumped into Giuliana Rancic (from E! News) tweet. She tweeted, GiulianaRancic Reports say Amy Winehouse found dead... 12 hours ago Favorite Retweet Reply I was in car, sitting next to my boyfriend. We're still on our way home from Jakarta. Tears Dry On Their Own played in car stereo.. Shocked, I immediately screaming and broke the silence between us. Dieter asked, "hey what happen?" I wanted to deliver the news to him, but I muted. My voice restrained in my throat. I looked at my boyfriend and he's getting confused. A minute later I said to him that Amy was found dead.  We're both in dead silence. I knew he loves Amy as much as I do cos we listen to her songs every single days.  He was like, "may...

July 12th

... will be the day I remember forever. The day when I finally spoke up my mind and thrown up my childhood burdens. The day when SHE yelled at me with rude words The day when SHE nearly slapped me in the face The day when SHE cursed me The day when HE proved himself that he's not more than a pussy The day when HE didn't being righteous The day when HE blinded by fake love The day when THEY hurt me so much, and so deep The day when... I left home Now everything won't be the same no more Only time will tell

cut out!

I've been looking for a perfect black bag. But I cheated on shoes everytime I intended to save my money for a handbag. Anyhow, let's forget about the black bag for a while cos I just found the most mouthwatering (NOT literally ) black shoes I've ever seen!  markesling 120 Ain't it feel good when you stand about five inches taller than others? Markesling is the perfect laser cut sling back bootie for all seasons! Paired it with skinny jeans or your favorite skirt or even curve hugging dresses and you're ready for the season ahead.  I'm not an accessories kinda girl.. I don't have stack bangles or chandelier earrings or super huge rings. My shoes is my only accessories. I hope I can bring her back home someday...  PS: as you all know, it's a Louboutin
