Rating: - Great debut .
If you enjoy music with a 1960's feel to it , then this is the album for you . Duffy has a voice perfectly suited to the songs on the album , despite what some of the previous reviewers have said . A great debut . If her next album is as good as this one , we are in for a treat .

Rating: - Not sealed
I have bought this album for a christmas present for the mother in-law and she is now going to think i am a cheap ******* because it came unsealed with a scratch on the case. It looks used! very dissapointed by Amazon!

Rating: - The most overrated album of the year...
Much has been made of this album and the singles lifted from it, particularly the now grating 'Mercy' (surely a candidate for most annoying pop single of the year). Dont get me wrong I quite liked this when I heard it for the very first time but after a being force fed it by the radio several times I suddenly realised how weak it was. Its trying too hard to be something it is not ie a classic 60's pop song, its simply a pale approximation.

How she has been compared to the legendary Dusty Springfield is one of lifes great mysteries it must surely be simply a visual thing. Otherwise its like comparing cheap wool with silk. Will she be remembered in 30 years time? I doubt it.


If you like weak retro songs with little depth or substance sung by a pretty Lulu soundalike then this id definitely for you. But if you prefer something with a little more quality stick with Amy Winehouse or seek out the many hundreds of 60's female artists that sound better than this.

Rating: - Vibrato anybody?
I don't think she's got a good voice at all, she squawks lazily like a doped up duck. Why doesn't she just try singing instead of warbling? Sheer affectation.
