By Osagie Alonge

She may not be with us anymore but her music will linger on in longer than expected eventually making Amy Winehouse unforgettable…as least for the next set of decades.

According to official information and sales tracking system Nielsen SoundScan, the five-time Grammy Award winner has sold an 50, 000 (fifty thousand) copies since her July 23 death.

The UK singer debut album ‘Frank’ has moved 7,600 units but it is her ‘Back To Black’ album which is more popular that has move more copies, 37,000 units in total. Nielsen SoundScan says 95% of the album purchased have been through digital downloads.

Also, Winehouse’s biggest hit ‘Rehab’ was her most downloaded single for the week which added up to 34,000 US sales totalling all her downloads to 111,000.

Nielsen SoundScan says the figures will most likely rise before the end of the week.

‘Amy paved the way for artists like me and made people excited about British music again whilst being fearlessly hilarious and blasé about the whole thing’, UK singer Adele says.
