Digital Album: Atomic Kitten - Feels So Good

"Feels So Good" is the second album by Atomic Kitten and features the hit singles "It's OK!", "Tide Is High (Get The Feeling)", "The Last Goodbye /Be With You" (double A-side) and "Love Doesn't Have To Hurt".

The style of the album is comparable with the first album and consists mainly of pop ballads, happy songs and one cover version. After releasing a cover version of "Eternal Flame" on the previous album, Susanna Hoffs from The Bangles decided to write a track for the album called "Love Doesn't Have To Hurt". The girls team up with Rob Davis for the songwriting and production of several songs and as a result Kylie Minogue with whom he frequently collaborated, also donates a song, "Feels So Good", to the album. Out of gratitude and because they feel it is a great title, the girl band decided to name the album after that song.

The album performed well on the charts with both Feels So Good sold nearly Platinum in first week and the single "The Tide Is High" becoming number 1 in the same week selling 145,000 copies in the first week, they were the second girl band to enter the no. 1 in both singles and albums charts at the same time (after Spice girls and before Sugababes) . During the release of the single "The Last Goodbye/Be With You", the album climbed back to the Top 10 in two weeks. The album is certified double Platinum. The album was further promoted with the simultaneous release of the book Atomic Kitten: So Good, So Far by Ian McLeish in which the girl group gave an insight look into their early career.
