Rachel Stevens

Any fans here? Of course there are, I know some of you love her lots. Rachel Stevens makes amazing music which became ignored due to her public pop starlet image. And some other controversy I don't know about because I don't live in the UK.

Anyway, anyone knows what's up with her lately? I really hope she hasn't stopped her music career, she makes stunning pop music. They're just so good, they're crazy. Plus her stuff aren't released in the US so we can share...

Some info collected so far:

Funky Dory


Debut album, a commercial success. Critically not well received but obviously most people lapped it up. IMO, dreadful. After the second single flopped, a re-release was released which spawned two more stellar singles.

Album reached #9 in the UK and sold 310,000 there, with the re-issued version selling more than the original.

Singles
#02 Sweet Dreams My LA Ex
#26 Funky Dory
#02 Some Girls
#03 More, More, More



Come And Get It


Second album, a commercial failure. Not released in many territories due to poor performance in the UK. Critically acclaimed for it's stylish pop music. Excellent album. Also contains Some Girls.

Album reached #28 in the UK and sold only 18,000 copies in the first three months.

Singles
#02 Some Girls (from Funky Dory re-released)
#10 Negotiate With Love
#10 So Good
#12 I Said Never Again (But Here We Are)
