While I am saddened by her passing, I can find no way to put her in the ranks of Hendrix, Morrison, Joplin, Johnson, or Cobain. While these 5 also had their demons, they provided us with countless hours of unbelievable music and were incredible to witness live. Amy on the other hand was a trainwreck waiting to happen. If you bought a ticket to one of her shows you were likely to either have a no-show artist or an individual who could barely stand up, much less give a show anyone would enjoy seeing. Buy her one critically acclaimed grammy winning album and enjoy the music.

i judge her by that moment you first hear the voice, so effortless, and that "what is this" moment I find lacking in so many artists. she had "it" in spades.
