Amy Jones, celebrated for her chart-topping hits and magnetic stage presence, proudly presents her latest single, ‘Beautiful,’ from her debut album ‘my forever friend’. Blending Afro sounds, dance, and pop, Amy has captivated the music industry with her powerful vocals and dynamic performances, leaving a lasting impression on audiences worldwide.
Released on October 20, 2023, ‘my forever friend’ marks a significant milestone in Amy’s musical journey. The album, recorded at The Hit Lab Studio in Johannesburg, is a vibrant collection of tracks that reflect Amy’s diverse influences and personal experiences, resonating with listeners across the globe.
Among the standout tracks, ‘Beautiful’ holds a special place in Amy’s heart. Reflecting on the song’s inspiration, Amy shares, “I wrote ‘Beautiful’ right after being voted off SA Idols. I remember sitting with my guitar in the kitchen, thinking about the competition and how it made me feel. It was a time of self-discovery.”
At 20 years old, Amy found herself caught in the comparison game, looking for validation through social media likes. “Back then, Instagram wasn’t as popular, and there was no TikTok,” she recalls. “When I realized how much time I spent comparing myself, I had to step back and ask, ‘Amy, what defines your worth?’ The answer was clear—God. He defines my worth. I am fearfully and wonderfully made in His image. That’s where ‘Beautiful’ was born.”
Now, 11 years later, ‘Beautiful’ still resonates deeply with Amy. “This song is timeless because it speaks to the ongoing struggle with self-confidence, insecurities, and comparison that so many women face today. We often measure our worth by social media metrics, but that’s not who we are. We are all beautiful in our own right.”
As a soon-to-be mother, Amy reflects on the importance of self-worth. “Being pregnant has taught me a lot. I pray over my son daily, hoping he knows he is fearfully and wonderfully made. I may not be the slim Amy Jones I once was, but I am still beautiful. It’s not about the outer appearance but the heart. I hope ‘Beautiful’ will inspire women and men alike to embrace their true worth.”
‘my forever friend’ is available on all major music platforms, offering a fresh and exhilarating take on contemporary music. As Amy Jones continues to redefine genres and touch hearts worldwide, she is poised to leave an indelible mark on the music industry.
