LONDON - Amy Winehouse is still hitting music milestones after her untimely death last month.
Britain's Official Charts Company says Winehouse's Grammy-award winning "Back to Black" has become the bestselling album in the U.K. in the 21st century.
The company, which tracks music sales in the U.K., said Wednesday that "Back to Black" overtook James Blunt's 2005 debut album to claim the title this week.
Winehouse's second album had jumped to the No. 1 spot on the charts shortly after the soul singer was found dead in her London town house on July 23. An initial post-mortem failed to determine cause of death, and Winehouse's family said Tuesday that toxicology tests showed she had no illegal drugs in her system when she died.
Hmmmm, seems fishy. They seem to have decided to combine the original and deluxe versions of the album in the last few weeks, even though the re-packaged version was released before the rule change allowing re-releases to chart with the original versions.
I think it's fairer this way, but some people are going to downgrade her achievement

They are combining them all though, not just BTB's.
