whoa.

okay, I think now "Rehab" isn't gonna be fun and uplifting anymore. It's gonna be dark and twisted and haunting.

Word, great, great, great singer. But it is it a huge surprise?
UK's few talented singers? Beatles, Zepplin, Floyd, Stones, for real? No hate, just talking.

Yeah, don't know about "few". It's not like we're talking about Papua New Guinea.

its sad when anyone lose a life, but i dont think its a tragedy like alot ppl make it out to be. she was slowly killin herself after lookin at hella pics of her online. she had a choice in the matter , but them 90 or so victims in norway had no choice with there outcome. at one point in her career she was talented definitely. that lifestyle will catch up to u sooner or later. it doesnt matter how successful u are nobody is invincible.

it's not really a tragedy but i don't think you can compare the two stories just because there's death involved in each of them. it's just damn sad that she died. http://vimeo.com/26837862 - just watched this and it kinda moved me. she looks really sad and desperate, like she's almost crying throughout each of the songs she performs.

It definitley was not a surprise - she's been struggling for awhile, but it will always remain unfortunate. I think the shock that many people have stems from the idea that at some point she would have got better, got some help, and moved on..but she didn't. She had ALOT of talent, and the little while she was here was hugley influential in both UK and US markets. I'd go as far as to say she's a cult icon. Like stated though, no one is invincible and the path that she was on, minus intervention only leads down one road...sh'll def be missed.
