Don’t Go to Strangers (Live On Jools Holland the Hootenanny / 2006)Jools Holland

Featuring: Amy Winehouse Paul Weller

[Verse 1: Amy Winehouse]
Play with fire
Get your fingers burnt
But when you got, when you got nowhere to turn
Oh, don't go to strangers
My darling, come to me

[Chorus: Amy Winehouse]
So when you hear that call, to follow your heart
You'll follow your heart, I know
I've been through it all, see babe, yeah, I'm a old hand
So, I understand yeah, I under, I under, I understand if you go

[Verse 2: Paul Weller]
Build your dreams to the stars above
But when you need, need someone to love
Don't go to strangers
My darling, come to me

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Paul Weller & Amy Winehouse]
So when you hear that call, you gotta follow your heart
You'll follow your heart, I know (I know, I-I-I)
I've been through it all (See babe) and I'm an old hand
And I'll understand if you go (Oh-oo-oh-oo-oh)

[Verse 3: Amy Winehouse]
Don't make it your mark
For your friends to see, ye-eah, play me
But when you need, when you need, when you need company
Don't go, go to strangers, my darling
Come to me

Come to me, ye-eah

Jools Holland

Jools Holland (1958- ) is the pianist/singer-songwriter best known for hosting the famed music showcase Later… with Jools Holland since 1992.

Holland, originally a session musician, first gained prominence as the original keyboard player for Squeeze from 1974 until his departure in 1981 to pursue his solo career.

By 1982, Holland, along with rock journalist Paula Yates was hosting Channel 4’s alternative music programme, The Tube. They presented the show for nearly five years, introducing Britain to a host of contemporary pop, rock and reggae acts until Jools, in an unfortunate slip of the tongue, used the phrase “be there or be ungroovy fuckers” during a live promo for an upcoming episode. The ensuing public uproar for this, the last of many such incidents, caused Holland’s suspension and the resignation of the show’s producer, effectively ending the program in 1987. In response, Holland created a sitcom, The Groovy Fellers, which ran for one series in 1989.
