Interesting collection. About Amy Winehouse, blaming the media for what happened is perhaps a bit too easy. She is one of the sad examples of people who couldn't handle the fame. Well, what ever you want to call it - the money, all the people telling her she is the best thing since sliced bread, but also the loss of privacy, reading about every fart she made in the tabloids next day. And of course the drugs, fake friends and all that.
There are so many sad examples who suffered the same fate. A lot more survived with a lot of luck. And only few managed to live a "normal" life, putting aside all the stardom BS.
Btw., there are a lot of music collections under the tag #x-daysofmusic .
A collection of tracks from every year in your life - I have made 23 so far already, the last one dealing with 1980. When New Wave was actually new... :)
Have a look in my blog if you like.
