[edit] Song information and music video
[edit] Two in a Million
"Two in a Million", S Club 7's first ballad, is a song about falling in love and having somebody to comfort you and be there for you no matter what. The song sees Jo O'Meara taking the lead vocals for the first time.
The music video was actually shot in Los Angeles, California[1] and sees the group all together in a house getting ready for a party. The video has a "black and white" theme to it, in that, in the beginning, the group are dressed in white clothes, and surrounded by white walls and furniture. The group are seen to be getting ready for a party; the boys are shaving in the bathroom and the girls are trying on clothes in the bedroom. They then sing together on a sofa.
S Club 7 then move outside, where there is a swimming pool and continue their singing there. The colours change to black; they wear black clothes and there is dark lighting. People soon join them and the group sing and dance until the end of the music video. It has 530,196 views on Youtube as of 11, April 2008.
[edit] You're My Number One
"You're My Number One" is a more upbeat, retro-styled song about a person questioning what love is to them. They feel that if love is what they are feeling, then they have to tell the person they like that they're their "number one", in that nobody else is right for them.
Like "Two in a Million", the music video was shot in New York.[1] Throughout, S Club 7 are performing in front of a white background, and are performing a dance routine. Half way through the video, the group partake in a foam fight. Towards the end, S Club 7 are joined by many more dancers who perform the same hand jive-esque routine until the end of the music video. It has 300,387 views on Youtube as of 11, April 2008
