DISQUS

Popdose: Listening Booth: Duffy, “Rockferry”

  • Fudgester · 1 year ago
    This album and single have sold by the truckload in England, so hopefully she's safe from overt commercialisation for now. Of course that depends on how her 'people' see her doing in the states. Joss Stone was aimed at the state side market from day one and hence has seen her popularity nosedive in the UK as her music has blended into a generic R&B/soul mash. Having said that, there's no denying that Duffy is riding the Amy Winehouse bandwagon and once the wheels come off that then who knows if she can carry on in the same vein.

    I love "Mercy" which is why it's slightly disappointing the rest of the album isn't as spritely. I'll give it a chance but wished the album was more energetic.

    I'd like to hear her produced by Elvis Costello.

    Joss Stone is prettier and has a much better voice.
