Weekly Music Video

This week's music video is Edge Of Us by Natasha Hamilton, a former member of British girl group Atomic Kitten. She was one of the original members of the group, having replaced Heidi Range, who went on to become a member of Sugababes).

The group debuted with Natasha, Liz McClarnon and Kerry Katona in 1999 but after Kerry left, she was replaced by Jenny Frost (a former member of girl group Precious). 

I've just read today that Natasha recently announced that she's leaving Atomic Kitten after 26 years. I was a fan of the group, so it feels a bit sad to hear that, although they haven't released much music in recent years. But it's cool that Natasha is going solo.

While they haven't released a studio album since 2003's Ladies Night (or a compilation since Whole Again- The Best of Atomic Kitten in 2015), the group did bring out a single more recently- Southgate You're the One (Football's Coming Home Again. It was a reworked version for their hit 2001 single Whole Again,  and was released in July 2021, in relation to the UEFA Euro 2020 European football championship.

Since 2013, Atomic Kitten have mainly been doing live performances (as the duo of Natasha and Liz). Natasha has now decided to concentrate on a career as a solo artist. She has set up her own record label Morpho Music Group and plans to release her 1st solo EP soon. For more on Natasha's decision to leave Atomic Kitten, read her Instagram post about it: https://www.instagram.com/p/DA-sqP_NFse/

She launched her solo career back in June with her debut solo single Edge Of Us. And she went on to release her 2nd single You Don't Know Me in September.

Edge Of Us is a dance/pop track about realising that a relationship has come to an end and having the courage to move on. Natasha describes it as "a powerful anthem of resilience".

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences. The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the D...

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo), ...
