It's 12am,*July 23rd 2012 over in California now. Its now been a year since Amy's passing, but it seems like it just happend. I'm laying in bed with my headphones on listening to Amy's cover of I'll Love You More Then You'll Ever Know. Hearing her beautiful voice always gives me comfort even on this sad day. We all miss you Amy*

[LiamSullivan]

We miss you, Amy. One year without you, and it's been anything but easy. I have a feeling you're at peace now, which consoles me a bit. It's a bet selfish of me to wish you were here, because wherever you are, it's bound to be better than here..
Thank you for the music that you made. You and your music helped me through some really tough times in my life, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for that.
Thank you for the brief hug you gave me that I'll never forget. It was funny because even with your beehive you weren't even half my height.
Thanks for being such a sweet girl... Miss you so much, Amy. I love ya.. Rest well, angel.

Thank you for sharing your voice. Thank you for reintroducing the world to jazz. Thank you for chosing to share your all-to-short time here on Earth with us. And most of all, thank you for sharing your deepest, darkests feelings on subjects others find hard to talk about. You are a source of inspiration for musicians all over the world and are sorely missed - but your songs will always be played, keeping your legacy alive.

[Jmoney]

Love you Amy, I feel bad I didnt listen to you when you were on this earth, your music has touched me so deep, you have inspired me to be a better musician myself. Your passing away is affecting me now like you just went away. Thank u for your music, and thank u for keeping it real, thats a rare treat in music these days. R.I.P........)=

I am wide awake at 3am east cost time reminiscing about my one and only favorite singer of all times wishing i were in Camden right now with other fans. So I have been watching her vids and interviews still trying to understand how a musical genius has left us all too soon. I will be wondering about Janis,Alex,and Mitch and all of her family and saying a prayer for them all today. I can't remember a day since last July that I haven't listened to Amy. The book was hard for me to read. But when I went to the nearest bookstore,I saw a Hello magazine with a picture of Janis on the bottom left cover. I opened it up and shut it immediately. I cried for a while then bought the magazine and the resemblance Amy had to her Mom really made me cry. Janis lost her baby and we lost our shining star. Her star will always be the brightest because like a valued diamond, her voice was flawless like a song bird in a frail body. Much love and adoration always.

So sad .. :-( .... I still miss her

[Amyfan]

I think at you everyday Amy. Its already 1 year ago that you left this earth. Time goes so fast. It still feels like last week.... Forever in my heart <3 I love you soulsister.

[W1nEh0use]

The sun is shining and it's an absolutely beautiful day here in the UK ...

It can only mean all the angels are smiling together in heaven.

One of them must be singing.

:-D

So here we are... one whole year has gone. Days and nights spent thinking about Amy, watching, listening, crying, smiling... her passing has induced a wealth of emotions. This whole year has been dominated by Amy, I have clung on to keeping her memory alive and not a day has passed where I haven't listened to her and thought about her.
I too need to thank her. Her effect on my life she will never know but she helped me through some deeply dark times. I just wish she knew how much I love her... maybe she does in some way, I hope so.
Thank you Forum people. I love you all. I hope you aer all OK and continue to flourish in your own lives.
Amy lives with us forever and I thank god all the time I shared some of her journey, even if it was cut short.
Lots of love.

[Mrs. Jones]

Like many of you here, this last year has very much been dominated with Amy in all kinds of ways (if you look up a chinese calendar, you'll actually see it's the year of the mermaid, not the year of the dragon) .
I've spent countless hours on this forum (I had never participated in a forum before) and met some lovely people of all different walks of life on here.
I've been obsessively seeking out videos, interviews, music by Amy, practically daily (and when I wasn't it was generally because I didn't have acess to a computer) and I have no idea why. I've never felt like that about anyone before.

This last year I've had many health problems, all linked to my liver which I abused through years of drinking/drugs : having fun (or so I thought). I've turned things around in my life, decided to lead a healthier life-style even if it means being the boring one with the glass of water standing in the corner (it's much harder to socialise without alcohol/drugs), to be more postive about things, and to feel like I'm achieving something with this life, give it some purpose. Amy Winehouse has accompanied me through much of this and has encouraged me to be a better person, more giving, a better musician, to set myself goals and reach higher every time. How she's accomplished this I have no idea, but she has been inspirational.

Today I am sad of course, immensely sad that she is no longer with us, that her life was quite tragic and dramatic and lived out in the public arena. I hope she finds solace wherever she is now and that she has finally found some peace.
I am sad but I am also incredibly happy to be alive today, I feel very grateful for many many things and can't stop smiling. I feel that Amy is giving me lots of strength today, she is helping me see how beautiful this day is.

On this note, I'm gonna go for a walk and bask in the sunrays.

Big warm hugs to everyone, and Amy, I hope you feel our love today xxx

I couldn't sleep tonight...

Darling Amy Jade Mermaid, I hope you enjoy swimming in the oceans of eternity.
Thank you for your purely amazing music.
My words can't explain how thankful I am for the wonderful work you have brought not only to the world, but also in my life.
No other artist touches me the way your voice and poetry does.
God bless your soul.

And hugs for all Amy fans here. xx

Miss you Mermaid. x

[MandyP]

Missing you AJW. You are legendary; one of a kind. Thank you for the most beautiful music I have ever heard.
My thoughts are with her family on such a difficult day.

[pearljo]

I'm going to have to let Randy Newman say it. All I can say to Amy is thanks. Five years ago when I clicked on youtube and entered Amy Winehouse I had no idea how much my life was about to change. Knowing how it all would end maybe I should have distanced myself from her...not a chance.


"Losing You"

Was a fool with my money
And I lost every dime
And the sun stopped shining
And it rained all the time
It did set me back some
But I made it through
But I'll never get over losing you

Do you know how much you mean to me?
Should've told you 'cause it's true
I'd get over losing anything
But I'll never get over losing you

When you're young
And there's time
To forget the past
You don't think that you will
But you do
But I know that I don't have time enough
And I'll never get over losing you

I've been cold
I've been hungry
But not for awhile
I guess most of my dreams have come true
With it all here around me
No peace do I find
'Cause I'll never get over losing you
No, I'll never get over losing you
