Music : RockferryIn association with Amazon.comRating:  - Listened over and over and overI randomly came across this singer and became instantly in love. I also love Amy Winehouse but loved this CD more. My favorite songs are Warwick Avenue(which has an amazing video by the way) and Syrup and Honey, but all songs kept me listening over and over. If you're into this type of music I recommend her immensely. Rating:  - mehin the music industry, when a performer (Winehouse for example) has opened a door in a certain genre (60's soul/jazz pop) and it becomes popular..again..then many clones are created to suck the life out of this genre until it is bled dry and people tire of it. Duffy is one of these clones. She'll be just another footnote in music history while Winehouse will be greatly remembered as an original voice. So that's my thought on it. If she wanted to stand separately from Winehouse and Dusty, she should have waited to release her cd, but the fact that she didn't shows she's just another bimbo trying to profit from the originality of another. Rating: - ExcellentAnother in the husky voiced femmes, but unlike Amy Winehouse, I feel Duffy has some talent that she won't throw away. All of the songs made me want to listen to the CD again. Looking forward to her next CD. Rating: - Duffy Swings!Duffy, now here's a new intreresting artist. She's a blonde girl with a lot of soul. Slightly reminiscent of Lulu, or Petula Clark. Great vocal control, style and emotional lyrics. Rating:  - Tremendous voiceA great debut CD from an immensely talented new singer. The title song and Warwick Ave in particular are fantastic songs. The album is not universally great and I think the singer is still figuring out how to best harnass her talent, but the highlights certainly make this album worth buying alone. This is definitely someone to watch in the coming years. |
