As above. Elvis Presley, Jimi Hendrix, Hank Williams Sr., Janis Joplin and the list goes on and on of some pretty talented people that had an addiction problem that did not define nor negate their talent. You may not have liked her music but let it just be that you didn't care for her style of music,

Terence Tomes that is one of the most rediculous, close minded comments that I have ever read. People who can recognize real talent will remember her for just that. .and God has very little to do with her talent. ..years of voice lessons and practice gave her a signature style that she had. .you're comment is cold and heartless. ..Bible Banger

Loved her music and talent. Hate that drugs robbed her of a life. So sad.

A friend of mine wrote a book on those musical talents that died at the same age - it sold very well.

Wasn't a big fan, but it's so sad she was let down by the people who professed to have loved her.

Playing one of her hits for the wedding. 'To Know him is to love him'. I think every man like me should come out. Its liberating.

I love her. So sad how fame broke her gentle spirit.

She might have been a talented singer/songwriter but she could not handle the tough pressure that follows when you get popular.
