Not only do I think it's one of her best songs, it's also one of the best songs I've ever heard in my life and it's definitely one of my top ten favourites. I heard the song when it was newly released (I was about fourteen), when I was very much into classic rock and roll (I still am) and even then it was one of the few songs outside of that genre that really grabbed my attention from the first listen and truly impressed me. Simply put, I love it.

It's recently become one of my favourites. I think I always overlooked rehab and YKING, I don't know why though - the hook is her best (I think Mark wrote it) xx

She was very proud of her writing on that song. It was my favorite before, but now i tend to go more for Frank.

It's one of her very best songs, imo. Sexy hip-hop vibe.

It's in my top ten as well. It has a happier rhythm that I find different to the others as well as the lyrics' meaning - defo different from my top 3 so I really enjoy it. With this one I can picture exactly what Amy described happened then.

I remember Amy saying she loved it, which was no often for her.

PS: A bit off topic, what do you think 'Then you notice little carpet burn' mean?

Well there's no delicate way of putting it but people often refer to getting carpet burns after having sex on the floor!  She's saying that her boyfriend can see carpet burns (marks from rubbing on the carpet) on her body (she is in the bath) and realises what she's been up to (not with him!).

Is this song actually about her? And who is she cheating on?

It's about Amy cheating on Blake...

 

Or is it about Amy cheating on Alex with Blake?

I always thought it was about Blake because she mentions the sweet reunion, Jamaica and Spain, and in interviews she said they were often bad to each other. I didn't think she cried for Alex on the kitchen floor...

She always said the songs on B2B were about Blake.

 

Then again, she may have done a medley of autobiographical stories intertwined in the same song, maybe some lines are about Blake and others about Alex...
