Biography

Born 30 May 1960 in Birmingham, England. In 1978, [a=John Taylor] (guitar), [a=Nick Rhodes] (keyboard), and Stephen Duffy (vocals & bass), formed a band called [a=Duran Duran]. [a=Simon Colley] (bass), joined soon after freeing up Stephen Duffy to focus as sole lead vocalist and frontman. But in 1979, before Duran Duran became wildly successful, Duffy moved on. He became the vocalist for Obviously Five Believers, a.k.a. [a=The Hawks (4)], a.k.a. [a=The Subterranean Hawks], and then co-founded a new band, "[url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Tin+Tin+(4)]TinTin[/url]". Within 24 hours of signing to Warner, TinTin recorded "Kiss Me," which peaked at 155 in the UK charts. The following year, the group signed to [url=/label/Sire+Records+Company]Sire Records[/url] in America, where the single became a club hit. A re-recorded version was released in the UK in 1984. Duffy went solo in 1984, as Stephen "Tin Tin" Duffy, and was signed to [l902]. In 1985, a new version of "Kiss Me" made it to number 22 inside a week. Within three weeks it hit silver (250,000). During his time at 10 Records he released three albums and a slew of singles. 1987 saw formation of [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Lilac+Time,+The]The Lilac Time[/url] which generated several releases before eventually splitting up in 1991. He resumed his solo career as Duffy. In 1999, he came across an early (1978-1979) Duran Duran tape in storage and met up with former bandmate Nick Rhodes. The two decided to revisit and re-record their earlier material. The result was the album "Dark Circles" under the name "[a214868]." He married fellow musician [a=Claire Worrall] in 2008. Duffy's journey continues... most notably (chartwise) producing material for [a=Robbie Williams].

LYRICS

A cardboard crown, a silver star upon a stick
The wizard's hat turns childhoods' trick
And what we lose like fading footage of a reel
Amounts to what we're prepared to feel
And she wants to share her magic with me
But I feel like a thief
She wants to go to church on Sunday
And sing in disbelief
She wants to share her magic with me
And see what we conceive
The arcane lines of her confession
Make it hard for me to breathe

The diamonds flash on her fingers, in her hair
As she supports her starry head drooped in despair
She knew the truth before she knew it to be true
Her calls are placed, she's waiting to get through

A spectral sound searches through the zodiac
She's radiant - an illuminating beam of light
Get up late, she looks like Scorpio herself
Euphoria, didn't know I needed her so much
