Amy Winehouse - I Heard Love Is Blind

Amy Jade Winehouse (14 September 1983 – 23 July 2011) was an English singer and songwriter. She was known for her deep, expressive contralto vocals and her eclectic mix of musical genres, including soul (sometimes labelled as blue-eyed soul and neo soul), rhythm and blues, and jazz. Winehouse has been described as "the pre-eminent vocal talent of her generation" and "the last real individualist around."Winehouse's debut album, Frank (2003), was a critical success in the UK and was nominated for the Mercury Prize. Her follow-up album, Back to Black (2006), led to five Grammy Awards in 2008, tying the then record for the most wins by a female artist in a single night, and made her the first British woman to win five Grammys, including three of the General Field "Big Four" Grammy Awards: Best New Artist, Record of the Year and Song of the Year.

She also won the 2007 Brit Award for Best British Female Artist, having been nominated for Best British Album, with Back to Black. Her album Back to Black posthumously became, for a time, the UK's best-selling album of the 21st century.Winehouse was found dead in her home on 23, July 2011 with her cause of death being alcohol poisoning. She is known as one of the main members of the 27 Club, a list of musicians who died when they were 27.
