"Pointless Relationship" (2004) is the debut song released by Tammin from her first album Whatever Will Be. The song was co-written by Norwegian singer Marion Raven for her debut solo album, but was given to Tammin instead.
The song debuted at #7 on the Australian ARIA Charts, and soon moved up to its peak position of #5. It spent a total twenty weeks in the ARIA Top 100 and was accredited Gold. 'Pointless Relationship' was the most added track to radio in its debut week and was #1 on the Australian Top 100 Radio Airplay Chart. The single was planned for a UK release on 5 September 2005 and then 19 September 2005, but was cancelled due to Tammin being contracted to a movie, which failed to materialize.
In an interview about her debut single, Tammin said; "My debut single "Pointless Relationship" is about a girl's view of where the relationship is going with her partner and it sounds like a negative term. But the song is more of an empowering song from a woman's perspective! It's the life of them together and it's just never going to go where it should go, and so she's saying to him this is a pointless relationship."
