Fans quickly took to the comments to express their excitement about Duffy’s return.
“Duffy! Where have you been?! We missed you,” one user wrote, while another added:
“Oh my god, it’s so good that she’s back.” Another fan remarked: “It’s wonderful to see Duffy again. She has always been such a massive talent.”

The new clip comes after Duffy, whose real name is Aimee Anne Duffy, opened up about her ten-year hiatus from music in 2020, revealing that she had been abducted and held hostage for several days during which she was drugged and assaulted.

Reflecting on her decision to withhold this information earlier, Duffy stated on social media at the time, “… In the last decade of thousands of days, I wished to feel the sun in my heart again; now, the sun is shining.”

“You wonder why I did not decide to use my voice to express my pain? I didn’t want to show the world sadness in my eyes. I questioned how I could sing from my heart if it was broken. And slowly, it is proving untrue.”

Duffy went on to encourage fans to speak openly about their personal struggles, expressing that she felt “released” after publicly sharing her painful experience.

In the same year, she also criticized Netflix, labeling them “irresponsible” for “glamorizing the brutal reality of sexual trafficking, abduction, and rape” in the film 365 Days.

Having signed her first deal in 2007, Duffy’s debut album “Rockferry” became the best-selling album in the UK in 2008. She followed up with her second album “Endlessly” in 2010. In 2020, she released the single “Something Beautiful” and later followed it up with “River in the Sky.”
