Amy Winehouse’s family, said the singer/songwriter’s death was not unexpected. It was “only a matter of time,” her mother, Janis Winehouse, was quoted as saying in the Sunday Mirror.
The singer’s body was found by British police yesterday around 8 p.m. London time after being called by ambulance services. Winehouse battled drug and alcohol addictions following the 2003 debut of her critically acclaimed album, Frank. Her follow-up album, Back To Black, garnered 5 Grammy awards.
Amy’s father Mitch Winehouse, had been vocal in the past about his daughter’s substance abuse, he talked about her possible demise just three years ago. “Doctors have told her if she goes back to smoking drugs, it won’t just ruin her voice, it will kill her,” Amy’s father was quoted as saying in 2008, while issuing an ultimatum to drug dealers to stay away.
Amy Winehouse now joins the list of other famous members of the so-called “27 Club” who all died at the age of 27—including Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and Janis Joplin. These singers all believed that artistic genius can coexist with or even be aided by addiction.

Truth is this was a woman that had demons to deal with and they got the best of her that is tragic yes but just goes to show you ” live by the gun die by the gun”… I know she didnt kill herself with a gun its just a figure of speech.. I feel horrible for her parents and family they watched and couldnt do antyhing as their beuatiful talented daughter wasted away… yes I can feel bad about her death and still speak the truth it’s called being real…
