About More Than Friends

"More than Friends" is a song recorded by Romanian singer Inna from her third studio album, Party Never Ends (2013). It was released on 23 January 2013 through Roton, featuring the vocal collaboration of American reggaeton performer Daddy Yankee. The track was written by Justin Franks, Thomas Troelsen and Tierce Person, while production was handled by DJ Frank E and Person. Musically, "More than Friends" is a house and Latin song that uses an accordion in its instrumentation along with a sample of Pitbull, Akon and David Rush's "Everybody Fucks" (2012). Music critics praised the song's commercial appeal and vocals, but criticized its release process. To promote the track, two accompanying music videos–one for the solo version and one for the version of the track featuring Yankee–were shot by Edward Aninaru in Venice Beach, Los Angeles, being uploaded onto Inna's official YouTube channel on 18 January and 4 February 2013, respectively. They show Inna at the beach and residing at a pool, with one reviewer comparing the imagery to American action drama series Baywatch. The singer also performed "More than Friends" on various occasions. Commercially, it reached the top 20 in some countries including Poland, Romania and Spain, and was certified Gold in Spain for streaming four million copies, and Platinum in Venezuela for 10,000 units sold.

DY, yo Inna baby
Come, arriba, let's go now!

Whoa tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
Whoa tonight, (Yeah) tonight we should be more than friends (Hey hey)

We're in the corner of the crowded room
I want your lips, your body, boy how soon?
And if you like what we doin' why don't we give in for the night
This might just be the night of you and I,
If there is no distance, ain't no hearts in that,
And if you like what we doin' why don't we give in for the night.

Whoa tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
Whoa tonight, tonight we should be more than friends

From the first time that I saw the look in your eyes,
I've been thinking about you for all of this time,
Whoa tonight, tonight we could be more than friends.

Ain't looking for someone to call my own,
But with you boy we're in danger zone,
And if you like what we doin' why don't we give in for the night.
So here we are, I just dream of you
And all the things that I'm about to do to you,
And if you like what we doin' why don't we give in for the night.

Whoa tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
Whoa tonight, tonight we should be more than friends

From the first time that I saw the look in your eyes,
I've been thinking about you for all of this time,
Whoa tonight, tonight we could be more than friends.

She rings my bell, and they rush the floor
You mighta think that's cool zaw
Everybody in the club was hot 'til I showed my watch, and they cooled out
Caliente! Frío! Que eso que tu tiene mío
Caliente! Frío! Que eso que tu tiene,
It's forever, (forever)
You could be mine, it's whatever (whatever)
Whatever you like, it's forever (forever)
You could be mine
And I'm needing you right now
Baby come and hold me down ow
Caliente! Frío! Que eso que tu tiene mío.

Whoa tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
Whoa tonight, tonight we should be more than friends

From the first time that I saw the look in your eyes,
I've been thinking about you for all of this time,
Whoa tonight, tonight we could be more than friends

(Yeah) Whoa tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
(Yeah) Whoa tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
