The following week Amy Winehouse had five singles in the UK Top 40, while her second album “Back To Black” claimed the No.1 spot.
Four months later Amy Winehouse topped the charts with a new album of unreleased tracks – “Lioness: Hidden Treasures”, the Daily Star reported.
The following week Michael Jackson’ record sales soared 40-fold and the sales spike has continued ever since.
In 2010, Michael Jackson generated more money than any artist alive or dead by bagging $273 million in record sales and radio royalties.

The second-highest earning dead celebrity last year was Elvis Presley, who died in 1977. He earned $55 million from his back catalogue, visitors to Graceland and ticket sales from a tribute show in Las Vegas.
