    Money and success are part of the answer. When you get them, the game becomes even more dangerous. You're subjected to a lot of pressure and some people just crack under it. They also have to realize that money and success don't solve their issues.
    Most great artists are "crazy" in one way or another. It's what makes them great artists. Some of them don't make it very far, some survive. I guess it's combination of luck and smarts.
    Keith Richards, Lou Reed .... the list of those who could have died numerous times is long ....

    don't judge an artist by one song. she may not be rock, but she's jazz, and her music is dramatic and beautiful on all levels.

    By the way I was a Jazz and Contemporary Music major in college. Calling Amy Winehouse Jazz is like calling Ozzy Osbourne Country.

    Well, my uncle is a professional jazz musician and he considers her jazz. I suppose we all have our views, and personally, I find her talented. If you don't, that's also fine. :)

    Peace
