Incredible Instagram post https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-51637265 from her yesterday, partly explaining why she disappeared from public view. She was raped, drugged and held captive. I was reading a speculative article about why she disappeared just a few weeks ago, which came to the conclusion it was the typical "struggling with fame" and/or "2nd Album" syndrome. But apparently that was not the case. At that time when I was listening to the likes of Dido, Katie Melua, Bic Runga, I loved Duffy's voice and "Stepping Stone" was, and still is, one of my "go to" relaxing songs on my "melancholy" play list, played loud and on repeat. I hope she has recovered well, and after this brave admission, she is treated well and with understanding, and is able to get back to writing and singing, if that's what she wants. to do.
A truly shocking and upsetting revelation. I’m with you on your sentiments. I’m truly against your horrific taste in music though. ‘Dido, Katie Melua, Bic Runga’ sounds like the answer to a difficult question, for example, what is the evidence for a godless and indifferent universe?
Which wouldn’t preclude her story also being true. Clearly she is suffering considerable mental torment.
