11.Warwick Avenue [7" VINYL] by: Duffy May 26, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details
Duffy truly is 2008's shining star. Of all the new acts that appear each year there is always one that completely captures that hearts of the nation and whose songs dominate the radio with their brilliance. 2008 is without a doubt Duffy's year. With her debut album still riding high in the top 10 of the UK album chart months after its initial release we now get treated to Warwick Avenue, the brilliant second major single from the rcord (third if you count the title track getting its minor release last year). I think i actually like Warwick Avenue even more than Mercy. Whereas Mercy was a unshamedly get-up-and-dance pop record with an incredibly instant hook, Warwick Avenue retains that same pop sensibility and moulds it around a ... Read More:

13.Mercy by: Duffy March 21, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £4.59
I've listened to this drivel - the record and all the hyped-up reviews of Duffy - and finally I've had enough. It's rubbish. 'You got me beggin', you got me beggin', you got me beggin' ad nauseum. Even dance songs can have good lyrics, it has happened. And enough already of these affected warbling or bellowing, sinus-afflicted girls (Adele's another...) I'm not hearing anything great here. And as for the Dusty comparisons, just just insulting to Dusty's versatility and emotional/vocal dynamic range. For god's sake, Duffy is plain Duff.

There's not really much to say here except this is a great timeless record full of songs that you will love to listen to again and again. When you marry great melodies to chrisp production, beautiful arrangements and intelligent, involving lyrics you can't go wrong really. There are more addictive hooks here than one record should legally be allowed to have. If Robbie has any sense and wants a massive hit record (and frankly he needs one after Rudebox), he should just have a word with Mr Duffy and just cover this album so that these songs get the sort of audience they deserve. :-) Honestly, buy this and do yourself and your ears and your spirits a favour!

I think that Stephen Duffy is an absolute genius and this is one of his greatest ever releases. Its funny though because i took a long time to come round to this records charms , constantly dipping into it but never quite "getting " it. These tend to be the ones you end up loving forever though and i think i can safely state that this will be the case here . Traks 1 & 2 still dont move me but the middle of this album (roughly tracks 3 - 9 id say) are the heart of it , some truly beautiful and emotional songs which sparkle and delight with subtle elegance . Wonderfully sung , gorgeous acoustic settings ( I love that slide guitar !) , its a delicious listen . Once these songs get under your skin , believe me , they'll stay . I'd ... Read More:

Have been a fan of this band since their first album but have been a little disappointed by their last two records - like its predecessor Keep going Runout Groove is a tired-sounding record , only the slightly more uptempo tracks like Driving ,the excellent Aldermaston and the folky Parliament Hill fields are in the same league as previous gems from Paradise Circus or Astronauts - Until I kissed you I find unbearable to listen to ,the Western swing of No Direction might work on stage but here it is just a filler and some of the slower , more sombre songs sound a lot like songs from KG , in general I find the whole album is very short on tunes

18.Rockferry [7" VINYL] by: Duffy December 03, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
Barcode: 0602517541061 How adorable is Duffy? I first saw her performing on Jools Holland's TV show and was completely won over by her performance. She has an amazing voice and judging from the amazing Rockferry and current single Mercy, her album is going to be awesome. Loving the arkwork on this single too. Rockferry is a big slice of retro soul ballad, it sounds like it could be right out of the 60s while at the same time coming across effortless modern. Epic in its grandeur, a beautifully moving song. Oh Boy is very different from the a-side, it's yet another platform for Duffy to show off her incredible vocals. A sweet little number with just her and an acoustic guitar, this reminds me of the Sugababes song 'New Year'.

19.Mercy [7" VINYL] by: Duffy February 25, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
Barcode: 0602517617827 So, Mercy has already been number 1 for two weeks just on downloads and this physical release looks set to boost its success even further. Duffy looks gorgeous on the cover and the song itself is pure brilliance, a departure from the ballad Rockferry, Mercy is an uptempo gem of a track. Based around a 'Stand By Me' esque beat and an ace organ riff, like Rockferry, this is the perfect blend of the old and new - and Duffy delivers it perfectly, proof of her ingenuity and talent as an artist. That chorus of 'You got me beggin' for mercy' is just so catchy and the 'yeah, yeah, yeah' parts are dead cute - the song's got everything and as if you didn't need anymore persuading, it's a perfect taster for an album which looks ...

Before people get precious about reviewing before hearing I am familiar with most of the songs on this c.d.as I had the vinyl original.. It`s another great forgotten Duffy gem,so many, so many,alas... Can`t wait to hear In This Twilight again, love that song... As Oscar said "youth is wasted on the young"but there have been many beautiful moments and this album is one such..................
