1.5M WW. Wow so it wasn't a total flop after all. I think that it has some good songs on there but the production especially on her vocals really were disappointing. Her voice was so dry in the mix.

Distant Dreamer?? Never heard that song from Duffy. Stepping Stone was great though, really emotional.

She always sounded as if her nose was blocked up.

Diet Coke had nothing to do with it. Good for her. Take the money while you can. She'd regret not doing it now if she hadn't.
Duffy did not much wrong. She's in the long line of the artists who have a very successful debut in the UK in the main and then the UK get over them and the next record flops...Its happened SO many times... Joss Stone Natasha Bedingfield Jessie J (album 2 DID flop, album 3 only did well as she took credit for Bang Bang) Daniel Bedingfield Ms Dynamite Pixie Lott Mika Alexandra Burke Lady Gaga Need i say more!? |

She was in the same vein as a lot of other throwback to the 60's type artists that flooded the airwaves and I guess where Adele and Amy Winehouse succeeded, she failed.
Too similar I think. |

She kind of lost her voice shortly after Rockferry. Suddenly she was nothing but screechy, where her vocals were brilliant on that record.
Just listen to Well, Well, Well... how long can you keep it playing without wanting her to shutup? xD |

I really hope you are not a Bond fan. That would have been an utterly TERRIBLE Bond song.

I listened to her the other night, Rockferry is a lovely album, its not normally the type of music i listen to, but every now and again i like to put it on, she was brilliant, i still cant bare her follow up album, i find it excruciating to listen to.

I remember seeing her on a BBC special, where she sang live, which was a ghastly mistake. Without the heavy studio wall of sound effect, her voice wasn't anywhere near as good. Very ordinary, in fact. Add that to a poor follow up album, and it's someone else's turn to get a bite of the cherry. I believe she's now running a welk stall, next to David Van Day's burger van.

I loved the Rockferry album but that song Well Well Well was just horrible and unlistenable.
