Some people say Duffy is an Amy Winehouse wannabe. I say Amy Winehouse wasn't the first, nor will she be the last, to bring soul driven retro pop back to the mainstream. With Duffy and her unique voice, I think you either like her or she might drive you nuts. I happen to like a lot of what I've listened to on her debut album.
And, because I like you so much, I'm adding a second video which is an acoustic version for your listening pleasure (I go back and forth on which one I like better, but often it's the acoustic version).
While she's reached the top of the charts in the UK, she's slowly gaining traction here in the US.
Genre: Pop/Soul
Artist: Duffy

I have to say that if you don't look at her she sounds a bit like Fantasia. The song is cool though. I really like the acoustic version.
