Awful September 8, 2008 2 out of 12 found this review helpful
This album is truly awful. I bought it for my girlfriend almost purely because almost everyone else in the world has bought a copy. We both enjoy Amy Winehouse' Back to Black and as my g'friend usually ends up having to listen to my choice of music I thought this may be a welcome change for us both...
WRONG!!!
I believe the production is by Bernard Butler - who I like, however if he had just encouraged Duffy to write some words which didn't rely on a second hand rhyming dictionary from start to finish I might think the album marginally better. Poor, poor , poor lyrics and a lack-lustre vocal performance - rubbish.
I'm telling everyone how poor this is and I didn't want you to feel left out - don't be, read this and believe me - "it's dross".
Duffy the voice September 7, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I first heard Warwick Avenue on Fiona Bruce's Radio 2 show and was blown away by the voice coming out of my radio. Ms Bruce subsequently waxed lyrical about the album and having bought it I haven't been disappointed. I think Duffy has a most amazing voice and whilst the album is melancholic all the songs are powerful and beautifully written. I have no doubt that Duffy will become very successful and I just hope her next offering is as good. It was said of her countryman Tom Jones that he was the voice maybe Wales has a new voice.

No
a good album , great voice...gwych!
Good vocals, but quite depressing listening August 26, 2008 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
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 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
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.
