Because he was a leading figure in the whole Seattle Grunge movement that reinvigorated the entire music scene and he had a far bigger impact than Amy did.

I know they are saying that the trend is/was coming to an end but the same thing happened with grunge and if Amy had got to release a third album she may have sparked things once again.

Sure it comes to different tastes. But at the end of the day Nirvana was much more of an international phenomena than Amy...not saying either is better, just that Cobain has far more impact internationally and commercially than Amy did.

Sorry but there is no way that Amy Winehouse outsold and played to larger crowds than Nirvana. No way.

ALso don't agree with that. Nirvana had far more of an international impact on the youth. Creating an entire movement of Grunge. Styles of hair, clothing, it was a phenomena on a much grander scale than anything AMy did. She sold well and had success, but no where near the influence that Nirvana had on the music industry and the youth.

Did she inspire Duffy and others or did the record companies see a 'trend' and just tried to cash in?

Agree with FreeBird. Also, it seems kind of morbid to try to add people to this misfortunate club. Plus this all happened in 1970, minus Brian. However, I can understand saying it's strange these famous people died at the same age. That's the only similarity I see. Sidenote, hasn't it been said Cobain is as great as John Lennon? No offense to him or his fans but I don't see it. Maybe just a generation gap.
