Troubled diva Amy Winehouse dead at 27


LONDON (AP): Few artists summed up their own career in a single song - a single line - as well as Amy Winehouse."They tried to make me go to rehab," she sang on her world-conquering 2006 single, "Rehab." "I said 'No, no no."'

Occasionally, she said yes, but to no avail: repeated stints in hospitals and clinics couldn't stop alcohol and drugs scuttling the career of a singer whose distinctive voice, rich mix of influences and heart-on-her sleeve sensibility seemed to promise great things.
