It took me so much time to fully appreciate Amy Winehouse and her second album "Back to Black". It was soon after her death. I had earlier liked some of the songs: the title song, "Rehab", and "You Know I'm No Good". Those are still the three songs which define the peak of her music. "Rehab" is a good soul pop song with reggae vibes. It is about her diagnose - she was rather suffering from depression than addictive drinking. Many things are proving that - she wasn't happy with hr life during the last years. The title song "Back to Black" is my favorite song of the album - it is soulful still quite poppy and melancholic. "You Know I'm No Good" is sad and soulful song. "Tears Dry on Their Own" has become one of my favorites later. It is one of the most uptempo songs but still sad.

"Love Is a Losing Game" and "Wake Up Alone" are very good songs too and are more proving her depression.

There is not even one bad or mediocre song. It is all good. i wish I would have appreciated her music before she died but at least I can now enjoy it. It is one of the best albums of its decade. She had huge influence on music despite releasing only two studio albums. Artists such Duffy and Adele got opportunity much because she broke into mainstream with this album.
