MIA RELEASES “27”. WINO TRIBUTE

LISTEN HERE http://soundcloud.com/m_i_a-1/27-1

MIA has released a track called 27 in memory of Amy Winehouse. The Paper Planes star posted the previously unreleased demo onSoundCloud on Saturday night, following news of the 27-year old singer’s death.

“i recorded this song B4 vickileekx and never put it out,” MIA wrote on Twitter. “its a unfinished demo.” She added, “R.I.P A.M.Y.”

On the SoundCloud page, MIA said the track is “dedicated to all my friends that died at 27”. Other artists who died at that age include Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain, the Doors’ Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and former Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones.

According to the SoundCloud page, the lyrics to the minimalist track read as follows:

“Said you’re all mouth and no brains 
all rock stars go to heaven 
you said you’ll be dead at 27 
when we drunk in a English tavern 
the owner poured you the bourbon 
and you drunk yourself so rotten 
he got so rich he bought a Bentley 
and moved himself to Devon

You started dirty dancing 
and you bar-tended a dozen 
I took you to the clinic 
to get you clean but you couldn’t 
said in two days you’re 27 and your destiny was coming 
and your papa passed so sudden 
and left you with lil’ somin’

you blew that money on a mountain of drugs 
and staged your self a bed-in 
a month later when I popped in 
you’re still high but the winter set in 
I bought you a coffee and a muffin 
and you quoted me some Lenin 
I wished I was that clever 
but that’s what kept me coming 
your friendship did mean somin’ 
but you left me for nothin’
when I left, you befriended a rope 
and I found you both were hanging.”
