Alfie is a song written by Lily Allen and Greg Kurstin, produced by Kurstin for Allens debut album Alright, Still. The song was released with Shame for You as a double A-sided single in 2007. It is about her younger brother, Alfie Owen-Allen, smoking cannabis in his room in addition to her commenting that he watches television and plays computer games too much.
When Alright, Still was released in July 2006, Alfie reached number seventy in the UK Official Download Chart. The double A-side entered the UK Singles Chart at number forty-four on digital downloads only, and then to number fifteen when combined with physical single releases. Alfie entered the Official UK download chart at number seventeen.
Alfie was released in Japan on the 11th of July as a Japan-only EP (which would chart on the albums charts). The EP features six songs and three music videos as a CD extra.
The song uses samples from Sandie Shaws Eurovision winning song Puppet on a String.
