Move Tjis Mountain wasn't a top 10 or even released.

 

Move This Mountain was a double A-side with Get Over You in the UK.

On topic of Bob Sinclar after popping up in Rich's thread, I don't really recall this one that went top 10 in 2000. Listening to it now and it's decent enough though.

 

I also stumbled across this gem from Natasha Bedingfield.

 

You never hear this anymore. One of her best songs, I think.

'Soulmate' :wub: I'm not a Natasha fan and wasn't a fan of any of her stuff beforehand so this one was a lovely surprise. To be fair anything sounds incredible following that utter trash 'I Wanna Have Your Babies' :mellow:

I agree. I don't understand why she released that.

Soulmate is stunning, one of her best. It’s baffling I Wanna Have Your Babies was chosen as lead.

 

The US edition of the album had some strong songs too, Angel and Pocketful of Sunshine.

 

Strip Me (single) was also great. Wish it was on Spotify.

I think of 'I Wanna Have Your Babies' as one of the key examples of a career killing single!

 

Absolutely, they didn’t even use it to launch the album in the US did they?

I couldn't remember I Wanna Have Your Babies so just had a listen. What a mess!!

 

How did both Daniel and Natasha manage to ruin their career after one massive album with some huge singles?

Not from 2000-2009 but we're fine with expanding this to the next decade now if you want. This one hit wonder Mclean in 2010.

 

 

I do vaguely remember it myself but for others it'll be a 'how does it go' and it feels like one of those songs that did well off the back of Taio Cruz etc who were scoring hits at the time!

Was it actually just that song being awful that killed her career? :lol:

 

I find it beyond baffling when Pocketful Of Sunshine was right there and WAS I believe made a single in the US but not here.

I'd say definitely. Her second album flopped spectacularly off the back of it and couldn't really be rescued, and it's all just rather embarrassing.

 

Which is a shame as there were some actually really good tracks on there. Should've lead with 'Say It Again'.

Like, her record company wouldn't even release Pocketful of Sunshine because of the bad reception I Wanna Have Your Babies and the subsequent singles had. You'd think something as unusual as a UK artist reaching the top 5 on Billboard would have the record company rushing it out everywhere, but I guess not.

Loved ‘Say It Again’ and still do.

 

Agreed, completely baffled it did t get a bigger push outside America. That and Angel.

I've always enjoyed I Wanna Have Your Babies and had no idea it garnered this much disdain! I remember at the time it came out however that I completely misinterpreted the meaning of the song and thought it was about kidnapping.
