Natasha's single "Unwritten" was featured in the movie "The Sisterhood Of The Travelling Pants" and many different television adverts. It also served as theme song for the hit MTV reality series "The Hills."
Natasha has just released her second album, N.B. and the lead single is the hit, I Wanna Have Your Babies.
Her latest offering ‘Say It Again', the third single to be taken from her critically acclaimed chart topping second album 'N.B', is no exception to this rule. Natasha Bedingfield co-wrote ‘Say It Again’ with Adam Levine (Maroon 5), and co-produced it with Mike Ellizondo (Dr Dre, Alanis Morisette). An uplifting song about falling for that elusive one, 'Say It Again' is reflective yet upbeat, and romantic without being saccharine sweet.
Natasha regularly contributes to YouTube as "uknatashabedingfield".
Another song that has gotten international acclaim is pocketful of sunshine. DSTV has used it for promoting their station.

Natasha Bedingfield Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't read my mind
I'm undefined
I'm just beginning
The pen's in my hand
Ending unplanned
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten, yeah
Oh, oh
I break tradition
Sometimes my tries, are outside the lines, yeah
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes
But I can't live that way, no
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah
The song "Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield is about embracing life and taking one's own path toward success. Bedingfield sings about the idea that life is like a blank page or untold story, waiting for the individual to write it. She uses the metaphor of the pen and the blank paper, “I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined, I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned.” And encourages the listener to start writing their own story, making their life their own by breaking conventions and living with open arms.
Throughout the song, Bedingfield calls for the listener to let go of their fears and release their inhibitions, “Staring at the blank page before you, Open up the dirty window, Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find, Reaching for something in the distance, So close you can almost taste it, Release your inhibitions”. She stresses the point that, ultimately, only the individual can make their life what they want it to be, “No one else can feel it for you, Only you can let it in, No one else, no one else can speak the words on your lips”.
The song "Unwritten" has a positive and uplifting message that speaks to a wide audience. It encourages people to live life their own way and follow their dreams and desires.
