Pete S Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Good record though, especially the verses, the chorus is a bit disappointing but I've heard a lot worse Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Haydn Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Bacharach & David vs The Supremes vs Ronnie Spector. Correct about "you ain't saying nothing new". But nae bad! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Cry to me ...the start of the tune..off the dirty dancing sound track ..not that I have the DD sound track And why is she trying to look like Amy Wino in the video????? I also detect a hint of dusty springfield ..nice strings too Edited June 23, 2008 by Madmandy Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ian Dewhirst Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 (edited) They have a Northern Soul precedent in that they did a Duffy 11 years ago with the brilliant "Black Eyed Boy" which was a Top 5 record in the UK in Summer '97 and would have been a monster if the Supremes had done it in their heyday! And, yes, they nick from a few sources which is why their records always sound so naggingly familiar, especially "Say What You Want" which strays very closely to Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing" in my view.

Ian Dewhirst Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Yep have to agree with you Ian black eyed boy similar to the motown sound She does have a nice voice Great song, period Mandy! When these UK acts get the pastiches right they can come very close to a good record. There's a few that hit the mark for me..... However none better than this one IMO (although I'll get killed for saying it LOL).... Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Epic Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Best thing to do is completely wipe Ms Winehouses voice off the record - put Marvin & Tammi in her place - now that would be a tune !!!! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

John I admit to buying the "mercy" vinyl I liked duffy's voice welsh warbler style so My hubby bought me the CD I tried not to like it but it has grown and grown on me..another young lady to watch non N/S is Amy Macdonald very infectious lyrics and tunes go buy the album I guarantee you'll love it by the way I never liked that tune by tammy and marvin ..too much cheese!!!!! Oh and Ian what about black velvet???same era as black eyed boy I noticed that stuff that "passes" as N/S out on general release has a very short shelf life unlike the real thing Mand Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
