Is new soul sensation Duffy a better bet than Winehouse?

 

She may have a beehive the size of a space hopper and an armful of Grammys, but is her crack addled ass on the way out, usurped by a greater and less destructive talent?

Never heard or watch that video of Duffy but I voted yes she is better. It's Amy Whinehouse for god sake!

Winehouse is comfortably superior.

 

Don't mind the stuff I've heard from Duffy, but it is effectively an homage to 50s/60s soul, whereas Winehouse created something that (while showing its influences) is quintessentially 21st Century.

 

Amy Winehouse, for all her faults, is lyrically and musically fresh, while Duffy is just a nice voice wrapped in a cliche.

 

That's my opinion, anyway.

simply from a vocal point Winehouse is far superior.

 

I also agree with much of what Thommo has said.

Duffy sounds like Lulu doing Amy Winehouse covers

 

I can just see the record company meeting

 

We need another Amy Winehouse to cash in

Cant argue... seen Duffy on tv last week and thought she was awful..... so bad I was surprised she was even mentioned in the same sentence as Winehouse.

I haven't got the album so i ned to ask this. Did Amy Whinehouse write the songs on 'Back to Black'?

 

Also. Did she not attend Sylvia Youngs Stage School?

This would help her get to where she is but the questions who's better.

 

Winehouse... possibly because of the above but she's still better.
