April 9, 20205 yr As a huge S Club fan, I am ashamed to admit... I have only ever heard this album once or twice and don't remember any of them (bar the singles ofc) :') I shall relisten soon though!
April 9, 20205 yr Author There's definitely some brilliance - the middle section of tracks 7-9 is particularly strong and Let Me Sleep is one of their absolute best! Their weakest album on the whole but so much goodness still.
April 13, 20205 yr The album I'm least familiar with - I didn't give it much attention at all in 2002/3, and I don't think I've heard it in full since then? I instantly recall Do It Till We Drop though, that was a bop *.* My stanning levels certainly reduced during this era, which appears to have been the case for a lot of their fan base considering how this album performed in the charts, oop.
April 13, 20205 yr there are some absolutely storming album tracks - whole lotta nothin, straight from the heart, gangsta love, in too deep + let me sleep. i still listen to this album regularly - much more than any of the others. the style is a little more mature than the previous albums though there were still moments that harked back to their previous albums. i don't think people were here for them at this point though :(
April 13, 20205 yr This album was released when I was at the peak of my love for S Club, so I really enjoyed this album despite it objectively probably being their worst. My favourites are the singles (Alive and Love Ain't Gonna Wait for You) plus Whole Lotta Nothin', Bittersweet, Straight from the Heart, Hey Kitty Kitty and Let Me Sleep.
April 13, 20205 yr Author Yeah there are absolutely some really strong tracks on this album, some I revisit often! Who Do You Think You Are bringing back the Seeing Double movie memories too *.*
February 21, 20232 yr I have been listening to the Seeing Double album today as a result of it being married up to their main profile. My goodness how criminal that it was so slept on! Just imagine if Paul had hung on for one more year. It would have sent them into the stratosphere. So many missed single opportunities - "Who Do You Think You Are", "Do It Till We Drop", "Dance", "Gangsta Love". I could go on!
February 24, 20232 yr Author Seeing Double has some really brilliant tracks - Let Me Sleep is definitely my favourite album track :wub: Hey Kitty Kitty, Who Do You Think You Are, Do It Till We Drop, Gangsta Love, Straight from the Heart, etc are all so good too. It does however have more filler than their other albums do for me - The Greatest and In Too Deep are two of their most disposable and I don't find Bittersweet all that essential either (though it's by no means bad).
February 24, 20232 yr Seeing Double has some really brilliant tracks - Let Me Sleep is definitely my favourite album track :wub: Let Me Sleep is one of my favourite pop ballads, I prefer it to Say Goodbye from the 'S Club' part of their career. It does however have more filler than their other albums do for me - The Greatest and In Too Deep are two of their most disposable and I don't find Bittersweet all that essential either (though it's by no means bad). I agree, it's comfortably the album I go back to least but it's still very good and deserved far better than the low peak it had. It wasn't exactly packed with single choices though, I don't think Alive and Love Ain't Gonna Wait For You stood up to their earlier material but I'm not really sure what would have been bigger. Whereas 7 and Sunshine in particular had a good two or three other songs each that could have been singles.
February 24, 20232 yr Author I think Who Do You Think You Are could've been a potentially great single particularly to tie in directly with the movie, it could've come in between Alive and Say Goodbye / Love Ain't Gonna Wait for You as there was a six month gap...! I suppose they were winding down anyway at that point so it probably wasn't a priority.
February 27, 20232 yr Author Saw an apple in every vibe Whenever your rub-a-dubbin' Pineapple is playing all night He's the one, he's the one Baby Honestly it's interesting how Shakespeare has been real quiet since Gangsta Love dropped x

I agree, him leaving kinda through things off and it was the start of the end, the album from what i remember wasnt pushed as hard as it should have been.
June 1, 20232 yr Author Possibly one of the geekiest things I've ever found out about S Club, but through some of the geeky resources I compiled, I noticed something intriguing about this album + Viva S Club and the movie. Every album track from the first three albums is either performed in the TV show, or used as backing music at some point (even Lately, released on the '7' re-issue post-L.A. 7, gets a use later down the line). However, Seeing Double has a substantial 5 songs that don't feature in the TV series at all, or even the movie...! Bittersweet, Secret Love, The Greatest, In Too Deep and Every Kinda People are entirely absent, which is quite intriguing. I wonder whether these were late additions or something? What makes it more interesting is that Rain features multiple times despite going unreleased at the time, and b-side Discotek gets an actual performance (the final one of the series!). Honestly, as much as I enjoy Secret Love and In Too Deep particularly, I think swapping those 5 out for Rain and Discotek would make Seeing Double pretty much *PERFECT* (and the others can be b-sides/GH bonus tracks/on Jo's album for Every Kinda People x). Imagine this... 1. Alive 2. Whole Lotta Nothin' 3. Love Ain't Gonna Wait for You 4. Discotek 5. Straight from the Heart 6. Gangsta Love 7. Who Do You Think You Are? 8. Do It Till We Drop 9. Hey Kitty Kitty 10. Dance 11. Rain 12. Let Me Sleep It's 10/10 :cheeseblock: (and firmly in fan fiction territory by this point but still!)
