Michelle Branch – Breathe
‘Breathe’ wasn’t released in the UK when Michelle Branch’s second album was abandoned after one single. But it did, at least, become a modest hit in America.
‘Breathe’ wasn’t released in the UK when Michelle Branch’s second album was abandoned after one single. But it did, at least, become a modest hit in America.
Michelle Branch’s debut single proved true to its name in the early ‘00s because – in America, at least – her music was ‘Everywhere’.
International success came at a cost for Cleopatra as they attempted to resume their debut album campaign in the UK.
‘Hollywood’ was quickly released to try and rescue the ‘American Life’ album. Instead, it led to one of the most iconic moments of the ’00s.
If you don’t over-think it, Cleopatra’s version of ‘I Want You Back’ is a worthy – and very ’90s – take on a Motown classic.
‘Cleopatra’s Theme’ was expertly realised in marketing the group as stars. All they had to do was wait for the rest of the world to catch up.
