Natasha Bedingfield anyone?

[Mad_Cactuar]

Yeah, anyone a fan? I am! I thought the first thing she was gonna do when she's at the US is get kicked out of the land for her brand of pop, but apparently that's not what happened.

"These Words" reached #15 in the Hot 100, and currently "Unwritten" is at #9! Awesome, yes?! That's like even better than stuff by popular artistes! Mariah Carey's "It's Like That" did worse!

The re-release of her album is even better, better tracks are added.

[Corybobory]

These Words used to but me so much because my boyfriend saturated the house playing that song all the time... but after a while it grew on me. I love unwritten though! I think the lyrics are sweet and cute. And I just saw what she looked like the other day when I saw her CD cover... she's really pretty! How are the rest of her songs, MaddyC? Is it alright if I call you MaddyC?

I don't like her all that much to be honest =/

[Halla]

I think she suffers from being way too overplayed in this side of the ocean. I'll stab my ears with something if I have to hear 'these words' again ...

'Unwritten' was nice the couple of first times you heard it , and the music video for it is cool

[asterix]

I like these words and single.

[Mad_Cactuar]

Yeah, MaddyC, MadC, MC, Mad, anything works.

Her album is good. But be aware that there are 2 versions. The UK one is horrid compared to the US version. The US version has "The One That Got Away" and "Peace Of Me", a lot stronger than "I'm A Bomb" from the UK version. I guess the track title already says it all...

I always skip These Words, it got too much airplay. Overplaying it causes me to hate it now. I'll probably like it again in like 5 years probably, but not now. In its prime here, These Words was played on MTV and radio so much it was intolerable. Everyone knew the song.

Unwritten is really good. I got the UK single, it has a cover of Coldplay's hit, The Scientist. Except Natasha added her magic touch and made an awesome live jazz version. The UK promotional video is also very beautiful.

Next single will be I Bruise Easily, another good track. I don't know if they will remake the PV, as the UK music video was simply stunning. You guys have to watch the PV, we get to see a geisha at the start! Guess who?! Don't wanna ruin the surprise.. I don't think I Bruise Easily will match the success of Unwritten, but I guess it's pretty unpredictable in the US, don't know what'd happen.

[hallelujah_united]

Yeah, I liked I Bruise Easily a lot. Had a dark and mysterious feel to it, which always scores for me. And the video was great too.

See, I do know a bit of English pop you know, Deric?

[appears]

urgh these words was overplayed 2 DEATH, havent heard her album but dont really have ne inclin8n2given what ive heard of her

[Fevenita]

I like 'These words' ^^. It was overplayed here [Finland] too, but because I don't listen to radio that much (I hate it when they overplay these popular songs, lol) I've heard it only a few times.

I haven't heard Unwritten yet, but I'm going to search for it at youtube.com now... Ok, I heard it now but I didn't fall in love with it yet, it usually takes a couple of listenings until I start to like a song. Still not bad either... But I don't think I'm going to buy an album or anything, I like the songs but they're not THAT good.

edit: Oh, I forgot to say that I'd like to hear Natasha's The Scientist cover, I really like the original and it'd be interesting to hear it sung by a female vocalist.

[Jennie Mae]

I love Natasha... something about her reminds me of Ayu, but I'm not sure what. It might just be that they write their own songs.
The American album is really good, I'm very happy with it.
And what's wrong with I'm A Bomb???

[sexysaucestar]

MC likes to start threads on artists I don't like.

Well, I guess I don't have much opinion on Natasha Bedingfield....I like her brother more, haha. My brother likes "These Words" a lot..hm.

I could get it here, if I won't be banned/cursed/murdered by the staff... Natasha has gone U.S too..

This is your chance to like them!

[LEOyumi]

Wow, I love Natasha! I started liking her when she reached #1 with These Words in UK.. Since then, I'm a fan! I'd like them to remake the IBE video, just to have a new one lol
And I didn't like the new version of the Unwritten video, prefer the book one (although it's a little ridiculous xD).
And The One That Got Away was such a great addition to the album, I LOOOOOVE this song so much! It was a b-side of one of her singles, wasn't it?

[Corybobory]

We'd only burn/bash/crush you so the forum can stay semi-legal and not get shut down.... Maddy C! :p

[Mad_Cactuar]

OMG YES! The One That Got Away is so good we should scream and harrass her record company so she would release tat as a single instead!

Sounds delightful.

*uploads The Scientist*
I'm ripping it at 192 Kbps if its ok with you, asongforxx...

[Corybobory]

As long as you dont upload it for the public on AHS, I'm more than happy about your file sharing.

[Mad_Cactuar]

Oh, it works like that? So our PMs wont be intercepted and the contents checked? I always thought admins could do that.

But it's a UK CD single, although it's getting re-released in the US with a new cover and new tracks. Is it ok to upload it for the Downloads section?

[Corybobory]

Maybe PM skal about that.

And I've never read anyone's private PMs... I dont think it's possible for mods to do that...

Thank god. *shifty eyes*

Uploading done! I'll be getting nmskalmn's verification of the situation.

[evolution105]

I love Natasha... well haven't heard all the songs but at 1 time I was really REALLY hooked on unwritten.
