If you haven't heard of Welsh Soul star Duffy you must be living under a rock. Duffy recently became the first artist to sell one million albums in 2008 according to the Official U.K Charts Company.

Watch the video above for her current hit single "Mercy" which was released as Duffy's debut single internationally.

According to Duffy, the song is autobiographical and is about "sexual liberty" and "not doing something somebody else wants you to do".

"Mercy" won the 2008 MOJO magazine award in the category of Song of the Year. The award is voted by readers of the magazine. The magazines editor Phil Alexander called the song a "timeless" classic that " could really have come from any period in time over the last 50 years"

The Veronicas - Untouched

"Untouched" is a hot song by Australian band The Veronicas and it's the second single from their second album ' Hook Me Up '. Watch the video for it above.

I first heard this song when it was featured on So You Think You Can Dance and I was hooked right away.

Unfortunately the couple that danced to it got booted out but the exposure in the U.S. did wonders for the single as it debuted at number sixteen on the U.S. Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles.
