MOG wasn't feeling the hotness in the new Lykke Li video I posted last week, so I'm hoping this new Duffy video for "Stepping Stone" makes up for it. I own Duffy's debut, but somehow this song got overshadowed by the hits "Mercy" "Rockferry" and "Warwick Avenue," probably because it's so slow and mellow.
"Stepping Stone"
....and with this report.... Duffy wins my favorite woman of the day award Duffy's gone on record with Shortlist stating shes totally in favor of fans stealing music. According to the singer, free music has the ability to change peoples lives and who wouldn't want that? "Well, I mean, it can go two ways – there are pros and cons to everything," she told Shortlist. "Some people think it creates illegal access, but I think the big wheel is round, y'know? I think it's g... MORE
So Duffy's new single will be Mercy. Can't find any links yet, so you will have to put up with this live version from 'Later... With Jools Holland'from the end of last year...
.
Lastly, bought Duffy's Rockferry, and Warwick Avenue is just amazing. Lovely tune, great range to her voice, and very catchy too.
I'm a fan.
Duffy is the "It" girl in the UK right now and I'm starting to understand why. But if someone told me 5 years ago that the world's finest soul divas of today would all be skinny white girls from England.... I wouldn't have believed it for a second...
Nonetheless, here is the new video for Duffy's "Mercy":
I bet Winehouse fans won't love Duffy as much and vice versa.
What do you think - Winehouse or Duffy? Or Adele? Or Joss Stone?
If you haven't heard Duffy's Rockferry album yet, do so as soon as you can! As if the catchy hit song Mercy wasn't enough of a reason to give this album a listen, you will be just as pleased with the other nine tracks. There's great music to be heard...from the mellow, bluesy Hanging on Too Long and Delayed Devotion to anthems of strength like Stepping Stone and Delayed Devotion. There's even an optimistic tune called Distant Dreamer that should be able to lift anyone's sp... MORE
My previous post on this topic disappeared, so here's my re-post. Duffy will be releasing her second single 'Warwick Avenue' on Monday, May 26h, 2008, on CD and for download. In addition, iTunes will release an exclusive acoustic version of the song. To warm yourself to the fabulous sound and atmosphere of this new song, have a look at the video: If the above does not work for you, the link to it on YouTube is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhZ5-L9znt8....

So, I just checked in on a singer I've just heard about...she's welsh, her name's Duffy, and I like her sound. Sweet it is.
Duffy one of the retro femmes fatale signings in the wake of Amy Winehouse's success. I like this Phil Spector-influenced track, "Rockferry."
Duffy was a guest on Jo Whiley's BBC radio show last month when she dropped this gem in the studio. The song is a cover of "Ready For The Floor" by Hot Chip:
Smoldering delivery! wOw!
Hot Chip's version
This week, R.E.M. was in the studio with Jo. There's video on her BBC page:
