Their members were twin sisters Edele and Keavy Lynch (younger sisters of Boyzone's Shane Lynch), Sinéad O'Carroll, and Lindsay Armaou (now in band Clayton)
Shane Lynch, Edele and Keavy's brother and a member of Boyzone, helped in finding them a manager who got them signed to Glowworm Records, a subsidiary of Epic Records.
They released their debut single "C'est La Vie" on May 25, 1998. It immediately went No. 1 on the UK charts, making them youngest girl group ever to do so, and also went Top 10 in the United States. Their debut album, B*Witched, was released on October 12, reaching No. 3 in the charts and going triple platinum. Very rare dolls of the group were made by Yaboom Toys.
The band deliberately cultivated a tomboy image, with jeans and denim being a trademark of the group. Despite being dismissed as a throw-away pop act, the girls co-wrote many of their own songs, including 5 of their 7 UK singles.
B*Witched was the first group ever to have its first four singles all enter the UK charts at No. 1. This record would later be broken by Westlife in 2000.
Their second album, Awake and Breathe, released in 1999, peaked at No. 5 on the charts and only sold a fraction of their debut. The singles from this album reached No. 4, No. 13, and finally No. 16, a disappointment for the group and record company, but the girls continued to tour the globe and began work on their third album with producers Ray "Madman" Hedges and Richard Stannard.
"Across America 2000" was released in the US, featuring covers of "Mickey" (which was featured in the teen-flick Bring It On) and "Play That Funky Music", and they re-appeared a few months later on The Princess Diaries movie soundtrack with "Hold On" - a track taken from their third album.
Their 8th single, "Where Will You Go", was scheduled for a summer 2002 release, but the group were dropped by their record label whilst shooting the promotional video in Africa. Plans for a new deal with Telstar records fell through later that year, and they officially split in September 2002 after Sinéad O'Carroll left the band, although Lindsay Armaou has since insisted that all four members remain friends in comments on her official website.
B*Witched reunited for a reality series The Big Reunion in February of 2013. Based on the success of the show and the demand for tickets at the Hammersmith Apollo show, B*Witched and the other bands from the show are currently proceeding with an arena tour around the UK and Ireland.
On May 04 2013, B*Witched released their first new material in over a decade, titled "Love and Money".
Does Your Mother Know
B*Witched Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So you're blue
but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
That's something I couldn't do
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face
that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl you're only a child
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?
I can see what you want
But you seem pretty young
to be searching for that kind of fun
So maybe I'm not the one
Now you're so cute, I like your style
And I know what you mean
when you give me a flash of that smile (smile)
But girl you're only a child
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
The lyrics to B*Witched's "Does Your Mother Know" explore the scenario of a young girl who is pursuing a romantic relationship with an older man. The opening lines "you're so hot, teasing me, so you're blue, but I can't take a chance on a chick like you" suggest that the singer is aware of the girl's intentions but is hesitant to act on them due to her age. The chorus repeatedly asks "does your mother know that you're out?" indicating that the singer is aware of the girl's youth and feels a sense of responsibility to ensure she is not engaging in inappropriate behavior.
Throughout the song, the singer reinforces the idea that the girl is too young to be engaging in romantic relationships with older men. The lyrics "there's that look in your eyes, I can read in your face, that your feelings are driving you wild" and "I can see what you want, but you seem pretty young to be searching for that kind of fun" both suggest that the girl is not emotionally mature enough to handle a mature relationship.
In the end, the singer decides that he cannot engage in a romantic relationship with the girl, stating "maybe I'm not the one." The song ultimately serves as a cautionary tale, warning young girls against pursuing relationships with older men and encouraging them to talk to their parents about their intentions.

You're so hot, teasing me
You're attractive and flirty which excites me
So you're blue
Despite your external calm demeanor, you may be feeling down
But I can't take a chance on a chick like you
I am not willing to take a risk on someone like you
That's something I couldn't do
I am not capable of taking that kind of risk
There's that look in your eyes
I see a particular expression in your eyes
I can read in your face
I can interpret your emotions based on your facial expression
That your feelings are driving you wild
Your emotions are strong and intense
Ah, but girl you're only a child
But you are young and inexperienced
Well I can dance with you honey
I am willing to dance with you
If you think it's funny
If that's something you find amusing
Does your mother know that you're out?
Is it okay with your mother that you're out here with me?

I can talk with you and get to know you better
Flirt a little maybe
Engage in some playful banter that may suggest romantic interest
Take it easy (take it easy)
Relax and calm down
Better slow down girl
You need to slow down and take it easy
That's no way to go
That is not a good approach to take
Does your mother know?
Is your mother aware of your behavior?
Try to cool it girl
You should try to relax and not get too excited
Take it nice and slow
Move at a comfortable pace
I can see what you want
I understand what you are looking for
But you seem pretty young
However, you appear to be quite young
To be searching for that kind of fun
To be seeking that type of excitement
So maybe I'm not the one
Perhaps I am not the right person for you
Now you're so cute, I like your style
I find you very attractive and admire your personality
And I know what you mean when you give me a flash of that smile (smile)
I understand the meaning behind your smile
