Released in October 2006, Amy Winehouse's second and final studio album, Back to Black
, the record remains a definitive portrait of heartbreak, addiction, and vintage-inspired musical genius. The Story Behind the Music
Back to Black has sold over 16 million copies worldwide. Its influence runs through Adele, Lana Del Rey, Duffy, Amy Shark, and Olivia Rodrigo (listen to Sour ’s balladry and hear the Winehouse DNA). But no one has copied its exact alchemy – the way its retro surface feels completely modern, or how its pain feels both lived-in and sculpted.
