With the amazing success of 'Mercy' and the album 'Rockferry', Duffy now has the task of choosing a 'follow up' single. With such a strong melodic album the choice will be easy..or perhaps difficult? Each track on the album merits being a single..but which one? The radio have gone a bundle on 'Warwick Avenue', but 'Serious' is a serious! contender. Or could it be the 'Walk on by' intro to 'Stepping stone' which does it? They are ALL superb. But there is one 'outsider' ...the 'Spectorish/Ronettes' sounding 'Distant dreamer' - a fabulous throwback to 64 which just builds and builds. This is fast becoming my favourite track on what is a milestone female album. What do you think?
Good choice- although you can't fault any of them! Is it me, or does anyone else think that 'Stepping Stone' has a similar beat and rhythm to 'The Look Of Love'? Sometimes when listening, I can almost picture Dusty singing them too...
