In A way, Amy Winehouse, who was found dead at her home in north London on July 23rd, lived her career backwards. Barely out of her teens when she released her first album, "Frank", in 2003, she already had the knowing tone of a performer with a lifetime of heartbreak behind her. Then, in her 20s, she set about acquiring the tragic worldliness that the timbre of her voice conveyed.Compared with the anodyne, identikit bands churned out by talent shows, Ms Winehouse was an unusual pop idol. She started off close to jazz before switching to soul with her second album, "Back to Black" (2006). Her new sound, tailored by her producer Mark Ronson and nodding to her hero Ray Charles, was out of step with the fashion, but that helped to broaden her appeal. She wrote most of the songs on "Back to Black", and they made her a global success.

机译：以某种方式，艾米·怀恩豪斯（Amy Winehouse）于7月23日在伦敦北部的家中被发现死亡，她的事业倒退了。当她在2003年发行自己的第一张专辑《弗兰克》时，几乎没有十几岁，她已经拥有了一个表演者的知音，并拥有一生的心碎。然后，在20多岁的时候，她开始着迷于声音的音色传达出的悲剧世界感。相比于无痛止痛药，由才艺表演催生的身份认同乐队，怀恩豪斯女士是一个不寻常的流行偶像。她刚开始接触爵士乐，后来又发行了第二张专辑《 Back to Black》（2006年），从而重获新生。由制片人马克·罗森（Mark Ronson）定制并向英雄雷·查尔斯（Ray Charles）致敬的她的新声音与时尚不合时宜，但这有助于扩大她的吸引力。她在“ Back to Black”上创作了大多数歌曲，这些歌曲使她在全球获得成功。
