Critics aren't the only ones gushing over Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black." Actress Alicia Witt, who appears in "Urban Legend" and "Law & Order: Criminal Intent," weighs in on Winehouse's first U.S. release, which is actually her second CD.

"I was in England a few years ago doing Shakespeare when that first album of hers ["Frank"] came out, and nobody in this country knows about it. It's fantastic. I've been trumpeting her ever since. She's so strong and so honest with a jazzy style and raw lyrics. Everyone can identify with her songs about loving someone and not having them love you back. I've never heard anything like her."
