This song was inspired by Amy Winehouse; the Stereophonics had hoped she would record it before her unexpected death in July 2011. Frontman Kelly Jones told The Daily Star: "I read an article about Amy's love life and the line 'Been caught cheating' came to me. I'd said hello to Amy at festivals and then I bumped into her at a record company party where she was with her fella Reg Traviss. I've met Reg a couple of times since Amy died; he's a lovely guy. We got talking about songwriting and Amy was up for me sending her this song, but I never got round to it."
The band eventually recorded the song for their eighth studio album Graffiti on the Train. "I thought it was too bluesy for Stereophonics to play but it's come out really raw and tough," said Jones.
British singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse's untimely demise shocked the music community and a number of musicians penned tribute songs to her. They include:
"Amy" by Green Day.
"Paperchase" by Paul Weller.
"This is the Girl" by Patti Smith.
