The Dusty Springfield comparisons are a red herring. Duffy's material – apart from her perky, Martha Reeves-influenced single "Mercy" – reeks of that of a soft-rock chick in the Bonnie Tyler mould. The former Wawffactor (the Welsh equivalent of Pop Idol) contestant possesses a formidable screech, and tonight her brief seven-song set, all from her deliriously successful debut album Rockferry, slipped by unobjectionably. You could picture the 23-year warbler from Gwynedd going down a storm on cruise ships.
E-mailed the rag.

Is this ass-wipe, Walsh, tone-deaf? He is a joke, and your rag is fast becoming a joke with assholes like this shit writing gibberish. His ass should hit the door. See to it.
I think the photo was taken on sunday in Milan, Duffy was there to do a private show for the D&G fashion people
