The group was founded by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD) members Andy McCluskey, and Stuart Kershaw. The original line-up featured, Liz McClarnon, Kerry Katona and Heidi Range (later in the Sugababes), but Range decided to quit and was replaced by Natasha Hamilton. Jenny Frost (formerly of Precious) replaced Katona in 2001. Hamilton, McClarnon & Frost were the final and most successful line-up of the group.
Atomic Kitten had three UK number one singles; Whole Again, the fourth best selling single by a girl group of all time; Eternal Flame and The Tide Is High (Get the Feeling). They also had two UK number one albums, Right Now, a re-issue of their debut album, and Feels So Good, both going double platinum in the UK alone. Atomic Kitten sold over 10 million records worldwide. In terms of sales, Atomic Kitten are the one of the most successful European girl groups of the twenty first century, alongside the Sugababes.
The group's first single, Right Now, debuted in December 1999 and reached the UK Top 10. After their initial success, Atomic Kitten performed an Asian tour and scored their first number one hit there with Cradle. The album, also titled Right Now, was first released in Japan on 16 March 2000, and subsequently released in the United Kingdom on 23 October 2000 with a slightly modified track list. In 2000, the group also recorded a cover version of The Locomotion for the movie Thomas and the Magic Railroad.
The Right Now album was unsuccessful upon its first release, peaking only at #39 in the UK album chart. Initially, there were no plans to focus on the global market and Atomic Kitten's record label, Innocent Records, was even considering dropping them because of their limited success. However, the record company were persuaded to allow the group to record one more single. The single, Whole Again, became their first no. 1 hit in the UK in 2001, and stayed at the top for four consecutive weeks. Due to this success, "Whole Again" was released worldwide, and reached #1 in 18 other countries. The song and video for "Whole Again" originally featured Kerry Katona; however, she left the group several days prior to the number-one position because of her pregnancy. The single was remade when Jenny Frost was added to the line-up as Katona's replacement. This led to a decision to partially re-record and re-release the album, which then went to no. 1 in August 2001. The next single, Eternal Flame, a cover version of the 1989 hit by The Bangles, also became a no.1 hit in several countries, and sold a million copies worldwide.
Following the success of "Right Now", a new album, Feels So Good, was recorded. The songwriting and production agreement with Andy McCluskey was an increasing source of tension within the group, and the girls decided to terminate the contract with McCluskey halfway through the recording of the album.
The first single off the album was It's OK!. Even though this song performed well in the charts, securing a No. 3 position in the United Kingdom, and reaching the top 20 in many other countries, it was the next single The Tide Is High (Get the Feeling), a remake of the 1965 song by The Paragons (also made famous by Blondie in 1980), which attained Atomic Kitten their third number-one single in their homeland. The single became the Kitten's second largest hit, getting into the top 10 in over 25 countries. In April 2002, Hamilton announced that she was pregnant, but rather than leave the group, she opted to continue with the scheduled 2002 tour. Hamilton filmed the music video for "The Tide Is High (Get the Feeling)", and made an appearance at Party in the Park before finally going on pregnancy leave.
In April 2003, the group released the album, Atomic Kitten in the United States. Until that time, the group had not focused on the American market, and the album consisted of tracks from their first two albums, Right Now and Feels So Good. Promotion for the album began with the single, The Tide Is High (Get The Feeling), appearing on the soundtrack for the Disney film, "The Lizzie McGuire Movie" starring Hilary Duff, and managed to debut and peak at #42. However, the single plummeted to #88 in it's second week. In addition, after the album only managed to peak at #102 on the US Billboard 200, it was decided the group would focus solely on the European, Oceanian, and Asian markets.
Before recording their third album, Kool & The Gang approached the group about a collaboration of their hit Ladies Night and were looking for a girl group to sing the lyrics. Atomic Kitten liked the idea and enquired whether they could use it for their next album which was subsequently named Ladies Night in honour of this collaboration.
Their first single of the album, excluding Be with You, was If You Come to Me. It secured a #3 position on the UK top 40. It became Atomic Kitten's 6th best selling single in the United Kingdom for sales of 180,000 copies.

Ladies Night was released on 10 November 2003, and peaked at no.5 in the UK album chart.

No One Loves You
Atomic Kitten Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You and I once shared love
So strong and so secure
But all that's left is memories
The feelings are no more
The flowers in a big field
All dried and blown away
The letters and the pictures
Are all that will remain
But every moment
Of every day
I want to see you
I want to say
[Chorus]
No one loves you like I love you
No one needs you the way I do
No one knows you like I know you
No one hears you the way I do
So many years of memories
Suppressed beyond recall
The feelings once so broken
Seem silent and so small
But every moment
Of every day
I want to see you
I want to say
No one loves you like I love you
No one needs you the way I do
No one knows you like I know you
No one hears you the way I do
But every moment
Of every day
I want to see you
I want to say
No one loves you like I love you
No one needs you the way I do
No one knows you like I know you
No one hears you the way I do
No one loves you like I love you
No one needs you the way I do
No one knows you like I know you
No one hears you the way I do
So strong and so secure
But all that's left is memories
The feelings are no more
The flowers in a big field
All dried and blown away
The letters and the pictures
Are all that will remain
But every moment
Of every day
I want to see you
I want to say
[Chorus]
No one loves you like I love you
No one needs you the way I do
No one knows you like I know you
No one hears you the way I do
So many years of memories
Suppressed beyond recall
The feelings once so broken
Seem silent and so small
But every moment
Of every day
I want to see you
I want to say
No one loves you like I love you
No one needs you the way I do
No one knows you like I know you
No one hears you the way I do
But every moment
Of every day
I want to see you
I want to say
No one loves you like I love you
No one needs you the way I do
No one knows you like I know you
No one hears you the way I do
No one loves you like I love you
No one needs you the way I do
No one knows you like I know you
No one hears you the way I do

Line by Line Meaning
You and I once shared love
We used to be in love
So strong and so secure
Our love was strong and we felt secure in it
But all that's left is memories
Our relationship is over, and all we have now are memories
The feelings are no more
Our love has faded away and we no longer feel the same way
The flowers in a big field
Just like flowers in a field that die and wither away, so has our love
All dried and blown away
Our love has dried up and faded away like the flowers in the field
The letters and the pictures
All that we have left are letters and pictures as reminders of our love
Are all that will remain
Those letters and pictures are the only physical memories of our love that we will have
No one loves you like I love you
I still love you more than anyone else ever could
No one needs you the way I do
I need you more than anyone else ever could
No one knows you like I know you
I know you better than anyone else ever could
No one hears you the way I do
I understand you better than anyone else ever could
So many years of memories
We have so many memories together from our time in love
Suppressed beyond recall
Despite those memories, I can't recall them clearly anymore
The feelings once so broken
Our love was once shattered and broken
Seem silent and so small
Those feelings now seem insignificant and unimportant
But every moment
Despite all of this
Of every day
Every single day
I want to see you
I still want to be with you
I want to say
I want to tell you how I feel

You and I would've shared love so strong and so secure
But all you left the memories the feelings are no more
Like flowers in the big field
All died and blown away
The letters and the pictures
Are all that will remain
But every moment of every day
I wanna see you, I wanna say
No one loves you like I love you
No one needs you the way I do
No one knows you like I know you
No one kisses you the way I do
So many years of memories
Suppressed beyond recall
The feelings was unbroken
eem silent and so small
