Amazon.com In the United Kingdom, New Zealand-born Natasha Bedingfield and brother Daniel Bedingfield have seemingly taken up permanent residence at the top of the pop charts. He's an earnest rocker with a dance music bent. She's an altogether more exciting prospect--a singer-songwriter who refuses to sit still, charging through decadent R&B ("Single"), jittery electro-pop ("I'm A Bomb") and first-class balladry ("I Bruise Easily"), invoking the likes of Beyonce and Gwen Stefani. And, okay, sometimes Nelly Furtado. An all-star production team, including former Robbie Williams collaborator Guy Chambers, makes for a debut that sounds like an instant greatest-hits set--just add cheekbones. --Aidin Vaziri
Album Description UK edition of her debut album features 12-tracks, including a bonus UK/US only track, 'Size Matters' along with a hidden 13th track, 'Sojourn'. This UK/International pressing also features two tracks that were dropped from the 2005 US version, 'I'm a Bomb' and 'Frogs and Princess'. In addition the import pressing features the two original versions of 'These Words' and 'Unwritten' which were remixed for the US version and thus exclusive to this pressing. The import version also features different artwork.22-year-old Natasha Bedingfield (younger sister of Daniel Bedingfield) has a voice to melt radios & a decade long passion for writing & singing. Her debut album Unwritten draws on a range of experiences & passions personal to her - from battling through the dating game ('Frogs & Princes'), & dealing with the trust issues of falling in love ('I Bruise Easily') to learning how to carpe diem ('If You're Gonna Jump') & develop the confidence to take life & own it ('Unwritten'). Told from the viewpoint of a young woman with her head firmly screwed on, Unwritten is fuelled by lyrical sass & real-life suss throughout. Musically the album is inspired by a wide range of influences & styles, from the glam rock of 'Silent Movie' through the muscular funk of 'Single' to the orchestral majesty of 'Wild Horses'. The result is an album packed with winning songs & no irrelevant fillers. BMG. 2004..

Wicked cool January 10, 2006 - Kasia S. (New York City) 72 out of 77 found this review helpful
I was actually in the midst of folding four loads of laundry, when Natasha Bedingifelds album started playing on my pc, and I got so lost in it again, I had to drop what I was doing and give this girl some props. This is an amazing cd, with music so catchy, so cool and simply a pleasure to listen to that I'm a total fan for life. I guess to compare her to other similar artists, which they probably don't like to have done to them, Id say she reminds me of Fiona Apple, Joss Stone , Alanis Morisette and of course her own core, but to be a good reviewer I like to draw comparisons at times. "These Words" is one of the best songs I've heard, ever. It makes you want to get up and dance, and it comes in some great remixes that have their own CD available for sale here. "Size Matters" is another song that will make you tap your foot under your desk at work, or make you skip a step in your walk, you might even sing along. "Wild Horses" a sweet ballad but no cavities here, its sweet but it's secretly has a killer tunes that sound like it was created by a seasoned music aficionado. Natasha has an earthy voice but she's slick, her music is not stuff, boring but is cool to the point that you are not embarrassed to listen to it in front of your friends. The choruses in her songs are great and have a real purpose. She's not the kind of girl who wants to be famous so she can do photo shoots and have makeovers. She has talent and she wants the world to be her outlet. She also writes her own songs, and she has so much to say! I love it, and you will too! Branch out, listen to different artists, take a chance, you might be pleasantly surprised.

These Words 2. Single ('06 Mix) 3. Unwritten 4. Silent Movie 5. I Bruise Easily 6. If You're Gonna 7. Drop Me In The Middle (featuring Estelle) 8. Peace Of Me 9. We're All Mad 10. Stumble 11. The One That Got Away (Wamdue Pop Rocks Mix) 12. Size Matters 13. Wild Horses Sojourn (Hidden Track) -The album version of "Single" is replaced with the radio edit ('06 Mix). It's basically the same, with a bridge that has added lyrics. -The album version of "The One That Got Away" is replaced with an edit of the popular club mix (Wamdue Pop Rocks Remix) *There is not a seperate listing for the original and re-released editions, so there's a chance you could receive either if you order. This re-release is taking the place of the original edition, not being sold as an alternative.
Bad copy protection scheme November 3, 2005 Teen music lover (United States) 19 out of 19 found this review helpful
Want to cripple your computer?? Just buy this CD. If you want to put it on your iPod, you're outta luck!!
Playing this disc may seriously damage your PC! November 10, 2005 Neil Richardson 28 out of 30 found this review helpful
I will not buy this CD because, it installs without user permission, presenting only a vague and misleading EULA Changes system configuration without user permission at time of change. Defends against removal of, or changes to, its components Silently modifies other programs' information or website content as displayed. Includes mechanisms to thwart removal by security or anti-spyware products. Cannot be uninstalled by Windows Add/Remove Programs and no uninstaller is provided with application. XCP.Sony.Rootkit installs a DRM executable as a Windows service, but misleadingly names this service "Plug and Play Device Manager". Approximately every 1.5 seconds this service queries the primary executables associated with all processes running on the machine, resulting in nearly continuous read attempts on the hard drive. This has been shown to shorten the drive's lifespan. Furthermore, XCP.Sony.Rootkit installs a device driver, specifically a CD-ROM filter driver, which intercepts calls to the CD-ROM drive. If any process other than the included Music Player (player.exe) attempts to read the audio section of the CD, the filter driver inserts seemingly random noise into the returned data making the music unlistenable. XCP.Sony.Rootkit modifies you operating system at a low level, represents a large threat to both corporate and consumer users system integrity. The Rootkit functionality hides files and enables hackers and other spyware to hide files with impunity. Scared? You should be. [...]
Sony Rootkit....Buyer Beware November 8, 2005 S. Sullivan (Harrisburg, PA) 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
The infamous Sony Rootkit fiasco, detailed at http://www.sysinternals.com/blog/2005/10/sony-rootkits-and-digital-rights.html is present on this CD. I have confirmed its existence on a PC that played this disc and have a very high suspicion of it as the cause of many system instabilities on that PC (still under investigation). If you like the music and want to support Ms. Bedingfield, attend one of her concerts, but do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT BUY THIS CD! Sony must be sent a message that their behavior is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. In general, avoid all "CONTENT/SOPY PROTECTED" or "ENHANCED" discs. They can no longer be trusted from anyone, especially any Sony published discs.
