There are so many songs that are out there everywhere then all of a sudden they disappear and you only hear from them very rarely that they can create a sense of nostalgic for you, the listener. So roll up and welcome to Forgotten Songs where we celebrate these forgotten wonders.

Number 1 – Goldfrapp

Today we are looking at a single that was released in the mid noughties by the band Goldfrapp that did well in the charts. Do you remember it? Let’s find out together.

On the 31st October 2005, Goldfrapp released the single Number 1. The song was written and produced by Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory and released on the record label of Mute. The single was from the album of Supernature.

The lyrics of the track delve into the connection you have with someone even though it may not last. The music video is set in a plastic surgery clinic. The CD single came with another track called Beautiful.

Number 1 did reasonably well in the charts and went into the top 30 in Canada (10), Ireland (29), Scotland (6), Spain (11), and the US Dance Club Songs (1). In the United Kingdom it went into the charts at chart position 9.
