The vocals are good. So too are most of the melodies. But almost every song is about betrayal and pain. The moody, downcast picture on the front of the album says it all. The album is instructive listening for all of us who casually enter into relationships and trample on each others hearts.
Excellent August 23, 2008

I can't believe it took me so long to buy this album. People have been telling me it's great for ages. Thing is, somehow I managed to not hear any Duffy songs until about a month ago. Yeah, I know, where have I been?
Anyway, this is excellent. Warwick Avenue, Mercy, Rockferry they're all classic tracks that sound like you've known them for years.
Great voice, great music, great lyrics. Overall a very accessible album.

This album sounds like something amy winehouse would do but duffy's album is a bit more jazzy best tracks are mercy warwick avenue serious stepping stone and hanging on too long the only bad thing about this album is that it's too short 10 tracks only can't wait for her next album overall i give this album a 10/10 must buy! if you liked this album buy Frank (Deluxe) Back To Black: Deluxe Edition you'll love them both! oh yeah the next single is stepping stone.
A bit Dusty but Amy won't be troubled... August 9, 2008

First outing for the Welsh lass is impressive, when you consider she was plucked from the beginnings of her live career at the time. The style is unashamedly Springfield-esque vocally, with production borrowing heavily on Phil Spector influence. Songs as if directly from the Gamble & Huff or Bacharach songbooks. Lots of jangly guitars and strings, excessive use of tambourine, tremolo and spring reverbs, hey it's '64 again. Winehouse does it better and brings an extra bottle to the party (just don't drink if hers has already been opened.....)
Credit where due for the flavour but left badly exposed when challenged, Duffy deserves the recognition received so far but will need to move the game on to keep up with the expectations.
Favourite is Warkwick Avenue, some of the later passages leave deeper searching questions.
One for the serious Pop collector rarher than Music collection. Play it on da pod and let 'yer hips sway....
