Dan's 'lil sister makes her assault on the chart with her r'n'b influenced debut single, eh…'Single'. Sexy, slinky & street-tuff Natasha looks set to become Britain's answer to Beyonce. Move over Jamelia there's a new chick on the UK urban block! The titl

5.0 out of 5 stars A Declaration of Independence!, July 22, 2004

Sure, you can hold it against her for being blonde and pretty, or even looking like another Britney, but in "Single", Natasha's words are honest, devoid of any grandiloquence and she packaged it all in a catchy pop song with strong killer hooks. This is an anthem for those of you who have been pressurized/told to "get a boyfriend, QUICK!", it's empowering, fun and infectious. If you love this, Natasha's outdone herself in her next single "These Words".

2.0 out of 5 stars That Natasha could have put her name to this........., July 27, 2008

....is embarrassing. My opinion of Natasha is well recorded in these pages...cute...sexy...good, clear voice...inoffensive lyrics...a real doll...But.............

Whoever did this remix needs to get another line of work. What we have here is short [7'43"] even for a single. Two versions of "Single", the one from the album, which is fine, a catchy tune, even if it isn't my personal favorite, and a remix that REALLY grates on the nerves.

Natasha, I still love you, and I'm glad you didn't put out a bunch of singles for your second album like you did for "Unwritten". Natasha is who I listen to when I want harmless relaxation...she is a treasure. But, alas, the singles from her first album are still around to remind her that we all make mistakes.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very good, September 9, 2004

By 

Clif D "Clif" (CA, USA, Earth) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Single (Audio CD)

Bedingfield has a distinctive voice, although it is kind of reminiscent of Mel C of the Spice Girls or Sophie Elis Bexter. She's no Beyonce and neither is she Christina...she's Kylie for the more mature listener...one that thinks she's black possibly.

Her success is a fallout of her brother's and primarily in her looks. Her music is incredibly bland and forgettable. Why people like it so much, I just don't know. Perhaps they are deaf? Or maybe I am? Who knows.

Bedingfield should've been a psychologist (didn't she study psychology or something?) At least then she could've helped me.

Don't waste your money on this CD. Just go the whole hog and buy Kylie's. I don't think Minogue has any talent at all, but at least one no talent and mediocrity is better than two.

All in all, I shall give Bedingfield two stars, as her voice is different--alas, not very powerful--but different.
