Album information
The first single "Colourblind", was released on 29 July 2002 and went straight to number 1 in the UK for two weeks and was certified silver. The second single "Rushes", also did well, going to number 5 in the UK charts, and the third single "Incredible (What I Meant to Say)" went to number 9. The fourth and last single "Girl in the Moon" did not do as well but still got to number 21. The album actually has 69 tracks, but after the first 12 they are all 5 seconds of silence until the last one, which is a songwriting demo of "Gotta Know Tonight", effectively making it a hidden track. This songwriting demo has lyrics and music written by Danesh, showing the song as it was first written before other producers added their production ideas to the song. The album was certified platinum in the UK for selling over 300,000 copies.
