Godfrey and Padley are credited as boosted producers.

It is the grouping's biggest selling single to date and was the final unmarried to characteristic founding member Kerry Katona, who left the grouping midway through promoting the single. "Whole Once more" was the first unmarried released from the anthology in Europe and S Africa. Information technology was a massive success, reaching number one in several countries and selling over a million copies in the UK alone.[ane]

The four writers were nominated for the Ivor Novello Accolade for excellence in songwriting,[ii] and Billboard ranked the rails number 96 on their listing of the "100 Greatest Daughter Grouping Songs of All Fourth dimension".[3] Multiple artists, including OMD, have covered the song. Following the deviation of Katona, she was replaced a few days later by Jenny Frost of young man English girl grouping Precious, just after the single topped the UK Singles Chart. Equally a upshot, the music video was reshot and Frost's vocals appeared on the reissue of Right Now.

Background [edit]

"Whole Again" was written and produced by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark members and Atomic Kitten founders Andy McCluskey and Stuart Kershaw.[iv] A mid-tempo ballad that combines a strolling vanquish and one-note string crescendos,[v] it initially featured all lines spoken by Kerry Katona with just the chorus sung by Liz McClarnon and Natasha Hamilton.[v] While this version was included on the Japanese version of Atomic Kitten'due south debut anthology Right Now (2000), Innocent Records A&R manager Hugh Goldsmith felt that it was yet a half‑finished song and asked songwriters and producers Jem Godfrey and Neb Padley to re-write it for the United kingdom version of the album.[half dozen] With the chorus being already in that location, Godfrey and Padley decided on writing a melody for the verses and inverse most of the chords in "Whole Over again," only were not able to alter its key.[half dozen] Godfrey later described the process equally "quite hard, considering the chorus of the vocal was then hooky that the verse had to lead up to it simply non overshadow it, which is why it ended upwardly sounding as low as it does. We very carefully worked out what the vocal range of the Kittens was, because the last matter we wanted was to write a melody that was fantastic but that they wouldn't exist able to sing."[half dozen]

Recording of the new verses took place at Godfrey and Padley's West Hampstead music studio.[6] A hasty affair due to the band'due south hectic schedule at that time, much of the vocals were recorded within 30 minutes, with McClarnon and Hamilton each singing the whole song twice merely.[half dozen] As well as recording the new vocals, Godfrey and Padley too took over the job of producing "Whole Again," although they were careful to preserve the features of McCluskey and Kershaw's original version, including Katona'due south spoken bit in the eye.[6] While the duo kept much of the "underwater organ sound" from the original session, they were forced to replay other elements and added a couple of boosted loops from the sample albums Vinylistics 3 and Advanced Orchestra to the runway.[half-dozen] Padley and vocalizer friend Angie Giles likewise provided vocals for the gospel function near the end of the song for which the producers tracked nigh xl vocals and put several delays and effects on it to sound like a choir.[6] While Innocent Records liked their version, they asked Godfrey and Padley to re-record McClarnon and Hamilton's vocals at least two more times, though they eventually decided on using the original vocals that had been recorded in West Hampstead in the finish.[vi]

Release [edit]

While Innocent Records planned to release "Whole Again" as Atomic Kitten's fourth unmarried at times, it was eventually replaced by "Follow Me" to lead the UK release of parent album Correct At present.[6] Following the commercial underperformance of both "Follow Me" and the initial release of the album,[7] Atomic Kitten persuaded their label to release "Whole Again" as a last-ditch attempt to keep their record deal.[half-dozen] During promotion for the single, Katona announced her pregnancy and subsequent determination to go out the grouping. With the single's release imminent, the grouping opted to recruit Jenny Frost, previously a member of swain British girl group Precious, as a replacement and connected their promotional campaign. The version with Jenny Frost'southward spoken give-and-take portion replaced the original version for radio airplay, and it was afterwards issued as a bonus rail on international versions of the group'due south 2nd album, Feels And then Good.[viii]
