4.0 out of 5 stars Duffy in Memphis, June 10, 2008
By 
This review is from: Mercy (MP3 Download)
Duffy's "Mercy" is brash,blue-eyed British soul. Her ode to sexual liberation is as feisty as Dusty Springfield's "Son of a Preacher Man." She sings with gusto and passion. Duffy, with her retro sound, is an Amy Winehouse without the baggage. Her song is reminiscent of the '60s. One can imagine the bell bottoms, the psychedelia, and the Beatles in their heyday. "Mercy" is soulful. Have mercy,indeed!

1.0 out of 5 stars quality lacking in mp3 encoding, May 22, 2008
This review is from: Mercy (MP3 Download)
re: Duffy's Mercy mp3 from Amazon

Quality of the mp3 is rough sounding. There is NO headroom; the original source sounds rough, as if the levels were clipped -- they certainly are in this mp3. The encoder does not use gapless metadata that can be found in LAME and even Apple's iTunes (for mp3) encoders, but compared to the lack of quality of THIS PARTICULAR mp3 (only one I have bought), that's secondary.

No lyrics, yes jpeg pic. Rest of id3 (both 2.3 and 1.1) is there. I don't know if the CD track of "Mercy" is better; I can only hope so but I'm sure it too is too "hot" only to sound louder, distortion be damned. Take a look at the signal levels and you can see there is practically no dynamic range - everything is LOUD and volume-compressed, even the parts where she is trying to be soft it's still LOUD. Rarely is there any point where the level is less than 3 dB from max. No wonder it sounds so bad.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, Catchy Song, October 11, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Mercy (MP3 Download)
This sounds like something from back in the soul days. The only part that I don't like is the middle where she's speaking really fast over her own voice, but otherwise it's good. If you like a soulful sound and catchy tunes, then this song is for you. Also, remember to preview the song before you buy.
