Advantages: A very well produced album

Disadvantages: None

I love this album. It's such a shame that she came to a tragic end. God bless her soul.

This album is what I would describe as modern jazz with a twist of RnB. The whole album is a musical masterpiece and Amy has a fantastic soulful voice that fits the album really well. The album is very personal to Amy and it showcases her AMAZING talent. I love the song Rehab. It is quite an upbeat song for Amy (she usually did just ballads) and it's quite true to her life. Amy was always in and out of rehab and I believe this was her way of getting back at her critics. The song is very catchy and addictive and I love it. It's my favourite song by Amy.

The rest of the album is pretty much modern jazz with more impressive songs such as Back To Black and Love Is A Losing Game. Both of these songs are sultry ballads but the way Amy sings them is so believable. You actually feel what she is singing and the clever use of lyrics fit the songs perfectly well. Her ballads are about lost love and failed relationships, life lessons mainly. They are songs you can relate to and she "talks" to you in her music. I still feel Amy through her music today, even if she has sadly passed.

This is a very well produced and well executed album. I'm not normally a fan of jazz but I like Amy's twist on jazz and she brings it up to date in her own way. This is 2000s jazz not 60s jazz.

R.I.P Amy Winehouse.

Summary: What a loss
