Amy Winehouse grew up in North London, got chucked out of stage school, became a teenage jazz singing star and later wrote and released a second album called Back to Black. Which was literally the most amazing thing to come out of England in a decade. She celebrated that success by marrying a crackhead, headbutting a few fans and making a YouTube video accompanied by Pete Doherty and some very small mice. And drinking a few more shandies. With crack for pudding.

Amy Winehouse died on 23 July, fans left tributes outside her house in Camden, including empty cans of beer, bottle of spirits and packets of cigarettes, which sounds more like littering.

With two albums worth of material unreleased, it would seem that we may hear more of Amy's work, and Mitch Winehouse will get a lot more of Amy's money
