The Daily Star is reporting that singer Duffy has recorded songs for the film with producer Bernard Butler.
WORKAHOLIC Duffy toasted her US success by recording new music for a movie. The girl from Gwynedd’s Rockferry debut landed at No4 on America’s album chart last week. But instead of throwing a boozy party, the Welsh warbler, 23, went back to the studio with producer Bernard Butler. The ex-Suede man, 38, told me: “We celebrated the other day by recording a song. That’s as far as me and Duffy get to celebrate, going into the studio to make music.” The pair have recorded a cover of Joe Meek’s Please Stay for a new film about the pioneering 60s producer’s life. Bernard continued: “It’s based on the stage play Telstar: The Joe Meek Story, and stars Nick Moran. “Duffy’s done the song for the playout credits, Please Stay – a great track and the last song Joe Meek recorded before he died.”
It’s the first new material Duffy has recorded since becoming an international star but Bernard insists success suits his muse. He added: “She’s born to do it, a genuine star. The bigger she gets, the better she sounds.”
