Description:
Released in 2008 on A&M Records, “Mercy” introduced Welsh singer Duffy to the world as part of the late-2000s neo-soul revival. With its stomping beat, handclaps, and Hammond organ drive, the track channels classic 1960s soul energy through a modern pop lens.

Produced by Steve Booker, the song’s retro aesthetic and impassioned vocal delivery drew comparisons to Dusty Springfield and Amy Winehouse. The lyrics — a plea for emotional release from romantic tension — are delivered with a rawness that recalls the Stax and Motown eras.

“Mercy” topped charts worldwide and became a defining hit of the soul-revival movement, It’s a contemporary reimagining of vintage soul — stylish, heartfelt, and endlessly replayable
