I randomly popped in their "All Hits" CD recently and rediscovered all their glorious singles.

All Hooked Up was immense

One of the better british girl bands, they could actually hold a tune, I believe they wrote most of their own stuff, and they were organically formed rather than being put together by some greasy svengali like a Cowell or a Walsh. I saw them at a launch party very early on when they were known as 'All Saints1975' they were very impressive for a group of girls who were barely 18.

All that said..Under The Bridge was horrible.

They did some good songs and they didn't fit that typical girlband stereotype which i liked. Coming back with Rocksteady and the new album ruined their short and sweet legacy.

How can this thread exist without a mention of 'never ever'.
Fantastic song. Whenever I listen to it I just get whisked back to the 90s. Although I always hated how the spoken bit was said in an American accent.
All Saints were one of the only girlbands who did proper harmonies with each other. Love black coffee as well.

I remember, I asked my parents for their debut album instead of an Easter Egg. Think I was only 8 or 9 at the time. I was absolutley in love with them! I've still got all their albums, haven't listened to them in years though. Don't mind listening to the odd song when it appears on The Vault, but I don't think I would dust the CD's off though. Not anytime soon, anyway.

Nicole Appleton who does the spoken intro to Never Ever is Canadian so it was just her actual accent lol

this is true, their voices did gel well together. although, there is one bit that is definitely out of tune in this video.

however, it is still pretty impressive all the same.

How Weird and ironic! I have been listening to All Saints, too today!

Well, I actually picked up Black Coffee on the rarer CD2 single today in a charity shop for 50p!

I Love/Loved their Music ever since I was a young kid... I have got their albums: All Saints (Debut) & Saints and Sinners!

I was, and still am, gutted they decided to split and to give up on their music career as solos as well! They should have been given a real chance to come back despite the initial flop of Studio 1. Never been a fan as such but always liked their music, cool image and I do miss them actually...

SNAP!!!!

I heard Pure Shores on the radio the other day so today on a much needed day off i've listen to all the albums. Some brilliant stuff there.
Pure Shores is probably my favourite, just has an eerie mystical quality to it - no doubt down to William Orbit mainly.

I'll never understand why Chick Fit was pulled from release at the last minute - i think it's a great song:

I loved Pure Sures, Black Coffee and All Hooked Up, they were my preferred 90s/00s girlband

Wish they had released Let's Get Started, I abs love that song, so catchy and just makes you want to get up and dance.

Loved all their singles from I Know Where It's At to Chick Fit. Pure Shores, what else can you say about the song, it is just magical and mystical, you actually feel like you are in paradise on a beach.

Shaznay Lewis, brilliant songwriter in my opinion!

I listened to that sing whilst I was actually on that beach in Thailand as seen in the film, maybe that's why it had a special feel to me
