Just Friends
Amy Winehouse Lyrics
When will we get
The time to be
Just friends?
It's never safe for us
Not even in the evening
'Cause I've been drinking
Not in the morning
When your shit works
It's always dangerous
And I've been thinking
Can we be alone?
Can we be alone?
When will we get
The time to be
Just friends?
When will we get
The time to be
Just friends?
And, no, I'm not ashamed
But the guilt will kill you
If she don't first
I'll never love you like her
Thought we need to find a time
To just do this shit together
'Fore it gets worse
I want to touch you
But that just hurts
When will we get
The time to be
Just, just friends?
When will we get
The time to be
Just friends, just friends?
When will we get
The time to be
Just friends, just friends?
When will we get
The time to be
Just friends, just friends?
Just friends

Amy Jade Winehouse (born 14 September 1983 in Southgate, London, died 23 July 2011 in Camden, London) was an English singer and composer, known for her eclectic mix of various musical genres including soul, jazz, rock 'n' roll and Rhythm and Blues.
Her musical formation went through listening to such jazz legends as Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and Sarah Vaughan; she was later influenced by contemporary metropolitan popular music as well.

Her musical formation went through listening to such jazz legends as Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and Sarah Vaughan; she was later influenced by contemporary metropolitan popular music as well. She represented a union of these aesthetics: a happy fusion of '40s jazz, '60s soul and hard texts inspired by daily life.
Winehouse's 2003 debut album Frank did well - both commercially and critically - in her native Britain and was nominated for the prestigious Mercury Prize. Her 2006 follow-up album Back to Black led to six Grammy Award nominations and five wins, tying the record for one of the most wins by a female artist in a single night, and made Winehouse the first singer from the United Kingdom to win five Grammys. On February 14, 2007, she won a BRIT Award for Best British Female Artist; she had also been nominated for Best British Album. She has won the Ivor Novello Award three times, once in 2004 for Best Contemporary Song (musically and lyrically) for "Stronger Than Me", once in 2007 for Best Contemporary Song for "Rehab", and once in 2008 for Best Song Musically and Lyrically for "Love Is a Losing Game".
Winehouse received significant media attention for aspects of her life other than her singing. Her distinctive style, most notably her signature beehive hairstyle, has spawned imitators and been the muse for fashion designers such as Karl Lagerfeld. Her drug and alcohol addiction, as well as her self-destructive behaviour, had become regular tabloid fodder since 2007.
She was found dead at her Camden flat on 23 July, 2011. She was 27 at the time of her death.

'Cause I've been drinking

It's always dangerous
When everybody's sleeping
And I've been thinking
Can we be alone?
Can we be alone?

I really wanna live in an alternate universe where Amy Winehouse is still alive and still making music.
s.a
i like to think so too somehow
Jordan Young
You are she just bought an island near tylenol and stopped with the game.
Mr. Lavinder
I miss her too. I was just having that same thought before I started listening to this playlist.

I wish the same thing. But lately I’ve been thinking. Artists like Tupac, Biggie, Kurt Cobain. People like them who can be considered the greats all died young around the climax of their career. Then you look at people like Eminem. He fell off. He’s just some cringe old guy atp. I can’t help to think would that have been Tupac or biggie or Kurt Cobain or even Amy winehouse if they were still alive. I am not saying the artist in the industry should go kill themselves. I’m saying that artists dying is a huge publicity move. For example pop smoke or king von. They died and everyone started listening to their music. The industry and their labels started to push what they had. They became 10x more popular capitalizing off the fact they died. Something else is if they talk about things like addictions or depression. Like Amy winehouses addiction to alcohol later leading to her getting alcohol poisoning and dying in 2011. It legitimizes their art. It gives it a sense of realism that it didn’t have before cause for all you know they could have been faking. Especially now if an artist died from something that was self induced. Everyone makes music about how they are depressed cause all teens are these days in depressed and anxious. It just gives their art a sense of realism that we never knew was actually there. It’s the sad truth of this industry. It also branches into the fact people want to be victims. Someone died and all of a sudden everyone knows them. Whether it’s an artist or a person some actually knew. They always want to be seen as a victim even if they only saw them in the hallways at school or something.

My mom used to listen to Amy whinehouse all of the time. Amy really made my mom happy. My mom would light up when Amy whine house started singing. My mom died last year of an addiction last year and so I listen to this music to feel like my mom is here with me still.
