Duffy mewn cyfweliad ar radio yn America:
“I think music is the only thing that I will ever really have. It’s very personal to me and I’ve kept it to myself for many years.
“I didn’t want to share it. Why should I share it, because nobody ever thought it was a good idea?
“So if I told anyone I wanted to be a singer, bearing in mind I lived in a really remote part of the world so pipe dreams were usually quashed in order to prevent you from being disappointed.
“I come from this very traditional way of living where nobody ever wins the lottery, nobody ever goes to university or really gets an education in this town that I live in, so the idea of becoming a renowned or well-respected singer, you know?
“So I just didn’t tell anyone.”
