Paloma Faith asked the manager to turn his phone off and when he refused, she walked out. The manager later called her and offered her a contract saying he had seen many acts since and none had been as memorable as her. She turned down an opportunity to join Amy Winehouse's band and began to write and perform her own songs. Her first recognised work was the song "It's Christmas (and I Hate You)", which she recorded as a duet with singer-songwriter Josh Weller in 2008. In June 2009, Faith released her debut single "Stone Cold Sober", which reached number 17 on
