歌詞:
i rememeber way back way back when
i said i never wanna see your face again
cause you were loving yes you were loving somebody else
and i knew oh yes i knew i couldnt control myself
and now they bring you back into my life again
and so i put on a face just like your friends
but i think you know oh yes you know whats going on
cause the feelings in me oh yes in me are burning strong
but i will never be your stepping stone
take it all or leave me alone
i will never be your stepping stone
im standing upright on my own
you used call me up from time to time
and it would be so hard for me not to cross the line
the words of love lay on my lips just like a curse
and i knew oh yes i knew they'd only make it worse
and now you have the nerve to play along
just like the mistro beats in your song
you get your kicks you get your kicks from playing me
and the less you give the more i want so foolishly
but i will never be your stepping stone
take it all or leave me alone
i will never be your stepping stone
im standing upright on my own...
no i will never be your stepping stone
take it all or leave me alone
i will never be your stepping stone
im standing upright on my own
never be your stepping stone
take it all or leave me alone
i will never be your stepping stone
im standing upright on my own

在幾個(gè)月前的英國(guó)流行音樂(lè)單曲榜中，來(lái)自威爾士的女歌手Duffy憑借她的處子單曲《Mercy》一舉奪取了桂冠，隨后，Duffy開始引起更多歌迷的關(guān)注。本周，Duffy的處子作《Rockferry》終于上市，在這一周的英國(guó)專輯榜中，這張《Rockferry》成功地空降冠軍寶座。據(jù)英國(guó)專輯榜官方的統(tǒng)計(jì)顯示，《Rockferry》是進(jìn)入2008年之后英國(guó)唱片市場(chǎng)上最暢銷的專輯，上市首周共售出了約18萬(wàn)張，比本周前十名當(dāng)中其他九張專輯的銷量總和都要多。
在Amy Winehouse取得巨大的成功以后，英國(guó)流行樂(lè)壇的女歌手中掀起了一股復(fù)古的風(fēng)潮，前不久涌現(xiàn)的新人Adele和如今的Duffy都是其中的佼佼者。Duffy今年23歲，從小自學(xué)唱歌，早在她19歲那年，她出眾的音樂(lè)天分就已經(jīng)被業(yè)內(nèi)人士發(fā)現(xiàn)，60Ft Dolls樂(lè)隊(duì)的Richard Parfitt把她介紹給了Rough Trade廠牌，Duffy隨后結(jié)識(shí)了Bernard Butler(原Suede吉他手)，Steve Booker和Jimmy Hogarth(James Morrison、Suzanne Vega、Corinne Bailey Rae)。在這張專輯中，這三位前輩在創(chuàng)作與制作方面都有不小的貢獻(xiàn)。當(dāng)然，Bernard Butler的出現(xiàn)很可能會(huì)吸引一部分Suede的歌迷。
除了已經(jīng)在英國(guó)單曲榜中折桂的《Mercy》之外，同名單曲《Rockferry》、抒情化R&B曲風(fēng)的《Warwick Avenue》和《Scared》以及布魯斯式編曲的《Syrup & Honey》都是大家值得一聽(tīng)的曲目。和已經(jīng)大紅大紫的Amy Winehouse相比，Duffy顯得更為優(yōu)雅，與更年輕的Adele相比，Duffy嗓音的線條給人感覺(jué)更好。Duffy會(huì)像Amy Winehouse一樣得到大家的青睞嗎？因?yàn)樗€不夠“壞”，所以這是個(gè)問(wèn)題。
