Artist: rachel stevens

A lifelong musical Anglophile, I've tossed and turned, spent many deep sleepless nights wondering why some of my favorite British artists never made it big on the left side of the pond. Well, not really. I've got more pressing matters keeping me up at night. But seriously, why? Why only one Top 40 hit for a singer as awesome as Alison Moyet ("Invisible," No. 31, 1985). Why does Tori Amos have six platinum albums in the U.S., and the woman who probably inspired her most, Kate Bush , have none. What did Sweet -- [...]

STOP BREATHING: AN AMAZING SONG AWAITS YOUR EARS. If you thought you liked Diana Vickers ' brand new buzz track "Music To Make The Boys Cry," start crying now-'cause you ain't heard NOTHIN' yet. Just a few moments ago, the X Factor alum tweeted out another new buzz track: "Kiss Of A Bullet." And guess what? IT'S EVEN MORE AMAZING. You know what it sounds like? It sounds like a Rachel Stevens SONG. No, this is not a drill: It sounds [...]

In part one of our REAL Sound Of 2012 we looked at already established and establishing artists, but in part two, we're all about the newbies. These acts are the ones we're supporting in 2012 and hoping they'll go all the way to the top. BUBBLING UNDER OH MY! Alex and Jade have been on the pop radar for the better part of the year, but they are yet to make their big splash which is why we've categorised them [...]

Brace yourselves for literally the worst news you've ever heard in your entire life... ever . Rachel Stevens , flawless ex- S Club 7 member, Jewish Pop Princess, and songstress behind one of the '002s greatest pop albums of all time (20052s Come And Get It ), has quietly recorded a third studio album. The problem? IT'S A CHILDREN'S ALBUM. Yes, you heard me right: A children's album. Like, for babies. Not for adults. Not pop music- baby music . [...]

Will Young - "The Way I See" ~BLAH BLAH BLAH, LOOK AT ME: MY NAME'S WILL YOUNG AND I JUST RELEASED THE PERFECT VIDEO FOR THE PERFECT LEAD SINGLE FROM MY (PROBABLY) PERFECT UPCOMING FIFTH STUDIO ALBUM BUT I'M LIKE TOTES BORED RIGHT NOW SO I THINK I'LL JUST RELEASE A SONG THAT ISN'T EVEN ON MY ALBUM FOR FUNZIES JUST BECAUSE I CAN. PS: I LOOK TOTALLY FLAWLESS ON THE COVER ART, LOLOLZ.~ And that -if I had to guess-is exactly what flashed through [...]

Rachel Stevens is a pretty mundane popstar who released a majestic album called Come And Get It back in 2005 which was never appreciated in its own time. Out of NOWHERE today, the brilliant MuuMuse "just muused" this , a previously unheard demo from the Come And Get It sessions called 'Nothing In Common'. Produced by Richard X, it's actually a really good song - albeit unfinished - and makes us wonder what might happen if all the "RACHEL RETURNS TO MUSIC" rumours happened to have some truth in them, and there may [...]

Breathe in, breathe out. Once upon a time, in a faraway land called Londontown, there lived (lives, but now in L.A.) an enchanting Jewish pop princess named Rachel Stevens recorded one of the best electro-pop records of the 21st century in 2005: Come And Get It . "Nothing In Common" is one of the earliest known recordings from Stevens' Come And Get It sessions with British purveyor of all things Pop Perfection Richard X ( Sugababes , Annie ). As is widely known in popular [...]

We're as shocked as anyone at this but here we go. The new Selena Gomez & The Scene album, 'When The Sun Goes Down' is a great listen. Yes. Selena Gomez. Yes, that Disney girl. Yes, Justin Bieber's girlfriend. Yes, the teenager who is mostly interviewed only in highly cushioned chairs behind a vaselined lense after 14 hours of make up and hair and teeth polishing. Basically, her new album 'When The Sun Goes Down' is marvellous. A collection of expertly written electronic pop tracks, sung [...]

STOP. LIFE. Can you hear that? Yes, Muusers: It's the sound of the Holy Spearit flowing through your speakers. "Whiplash" is the latest leak from Selegenda Gomezmerizing 's upcoming studio album When The Sun Goes Down , produced by bouncy-pop maestro Greg Kurstin and co-penned by Electrocute 's Nicole Morier ("Heaven On Earth," "Mmm Papi") and the living legend herself, Godney Spears . The song is essentially what would happen if Rachel Stevens were to make her grand return in 2011, hovering [...]

After the release of her critically acclaimed Introduction EP back in 2010, UK singer-songwriter-drummer Florrie is back for another round. The former Xenomania in-house band member-who first rose to prominence as a solo artist after giving away a handful of electro-pop gems produced by Fred Falke on her official website -returns on June 14 with the Experiments EP , a six-track collection of crunchy electro-pop tunes. The Experiments EP finds Florrie flirting with an airy '602s French pop nostalgia mixed with cutting-edge pop [...]

For those who don't know (and apparently many do not), the CMJ Music Marathon & Film Festival is a week long event in which under-the-radar artists perform and indie filmmakers premiere their work at showcases across New York City. This year's CMJ Festival begins next week on Tuesday, October 19 and will run through Saturday, October 23. According to the official website , there will be "1200 live performances from over 30 countries in more than 75 of New York City's greatest venues and theatres," which is, like, a whole lot. At the risk of [...]

In case you haven't heard, Girls Can't Catch were dropped . While I was admittedly critical of the girls when they first launched last year (the name was never going to be okay in my eyes), "Keep Your Head Up" was a solid grower along with "Echo," and the songs that I'd heard from their recently leaked album samplers were pretty good, generally speaking. Please do yourselves a favor and head over to PopJustice to read an honest, thoughtful reflection on the incredibly short lived project. Most [...]

Rachel Stevens is further out than we thought, and not waving, but drowning : Rachel Stevens has revealed that she would be interested in collaborating with Lady GaGa. I'm sure GaGa will be delighted that Rachel Stevens is prepared to consider a collaboration with her. But Stevens must make it clear she's prepared to spread the love: "I also love Rihanna, Florence and the Machine and Marina & The Diamonds. I think they all have such strong identities and they're really stylish, strong women." "... and Amy Winehouse. Susan [...]

That was an odd decade for her, wasn't it? From kids TV star to whatever it is she does now, most of it supported through sitting in her pants for FHM, with a couple of cracking pop singles in the middle. No, really. I Said Never Again But Here We Are. Have you forgotten how great this is? [Part of Decade Null 2005 ]

Editor's note: Excluusive meeting photo may or may not be Photoshopped. POP NEWS ALERT: PUT AWAY WHATEVER YOU'RE EATING AND SHUT THE FUCK UP. MuuMuse special correspondent David has JUST RAN INTO Rachel Come and Get It Stevens at Cuvee on Robertson in Los Angeles. At the time, "She was wearing a long black dress, flats, hair longer than her shoulders and blown out straight...sunglasses in hand, with a bleach blond friend/assistant girl." After gushing profusely about [...]

Remember when the world was a cool place to live in? When Madoff was able do this little business of his, when people were still willing to give money in exchange of music, and when S CLUB 7 WERE STILL AROUND ???! Well I remember. But those blissful days are long gone and all I can do now is listen to Don't Stop Movin from time to time and go on with my life. More seriously (or not), François, a kind reader of this blog, was nice enough to [...]

S Club 7 singer and star of Strictly Come Dancing, Rachel Stevens has been mugged of her engagement ring THREE WEEKS before her wedding. The 31 year old was literally on her own front door step in North London yesterday when she was mugged by three men. They demanded she hand over her engagement ring, rolex watch and necklace worth tens of thousands of pounds and then fled in a car before she had time to call the police - although she was able to give detailed descriptions of the muggers, thought to be one white [...]

The Telegraph describes the nasty incident where Rachel Stevens was relieved of her stuff by a gang as a "mugging", although, given she was followed into her home and menaced by three blokes, that seems a little mild. Not like the Telegraph to miss an opportunity to talk up a crime, is it? Whatever you call it, it's a horrible thing to have happened, and while it won't do much good, Ms Stevens has our sympathy.
