Natasha Bedingfield made her musical debut with her first album, Unwritten. The record was initially released on September 6, 2004 in the United Kingdom and internationally; the United States didn't get the album until August 2, 2005 with a slightly different track listing. Singles like "These Words" and "Single" were well received by critics and performed well on radio, but the biggest hit of the album was its title track. "Unwritten" was the second single for the US, and third for the UK, and reached number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song has spawned a huge legacy, and remains one of Natasha's signature hits. Unwritten reached number 26 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, and was an album critics favored. Natasha immediately showed her distinctive musical style, which blends R&B, soul, and pop. Even on this first album, her music resonated with a more mature audience at adult pop radio. Unwritten is a strong debut album that is memorable and still enjoyable to this day.
Highlights on Unwritten include "Unwritten," "These Words," "Silent Movie," "Drop Me In The Middle," and "Wild Horses."
