Rising to fame in late 2002, Cole was selected to become a member of girl group Girls Aloud on ITV's reality television programme Popstars The Rivals. Cole's first solo performance was on American rapper will.i.am's Heartbreaker in 2008. She was picked to appear as a dancer in the video after taking streetdancing classes during the filming of the ITV2 series The Passions of Girls Aloud, in which the members of the band achieve something they had always wanted to do, other than sing. She was later asked, by will.i.am, to sing additional vocals on the track.
In April 2009, Cole started working on solo material. Her debut album, 3 Words, was released in the UK on 26 October 2009. Cole was reunited with will.i.am for the album, in addition to collaborating with Fraser T. Smith, Syience, Danish production team Soulshock & Karlin, singer-songwriter Taio Cruz, Wayne Wilkins, and Steve Kipner. Recorded in Los Angeles and London, Cole mainly collaborated with will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas, the executive producer of 3 Words. It crosses from contemporary R&B, dance pop, house and a more general pop sound.
3 Words spent two weeks at number one. On 6 November 2009, BPI certified the album Platinum, denoting shipments of over 300,000 units. It later tripled this feat. The first single from the album, Fight for This Love, was written by Andre Merritt, Steve Kipner and Wayne Wilkins, and produced by Steve Kipner and Wayne Wilkins. According to Cole, it was released as the lead single because she "connected with the song so well". Following a performance on The X Factor live results show, Fight for This Love became the fourth best-selling single of 2009 in the UK. It charted at number one on both the Irish and UK Singles Chart. In 2010, Fight For This Love went to number one in Denmark, Norway and Hungary. The single was later certified platinum in the UK. Cole's second single 3 Words, which features will.i.am, went to number 4 in the UK and seven in Ireland. In 2010, the single was released in Australia and charted at number 5 and was certified platinum. The third single, Parachute, charted in the top five in both the UK and Ireland. The single was certified silver in the UK. From May to July 2010, Cole was the opening act for The Black Eyed Peas at the British shows (as well as some European dates) of The E.N.D. World Tour. Chris Johnson of the Daily Mail wrote, "she was supposed to be the support act. But as it turned out, Cheryl Cole ended up being the main event".
In March 2010, Cole stated that she had begun working on a follow up album to 3 Words, which she hoped to release "later on in the year". Cole's second solo album, titled Messy Little Raindrops, was released on 1 November 2010. The album's first single, Promise This, was released on 24 October 2010 and became her second number-one hit in the UK. The album was largely produced by Wayne Wilkins, but Cole also reunited with will.i.am, with collaboration from J. R. Rotem, Starsmith, Al Shux, and Free School for the first time. The album also features guest vocals from August Rigo, Dizzee Rascal, Travie McCoy, and will.i.am. The album's lead single, Promise This, went straight to number 1 in the UK, selling 157,000 in its first week. A week later, Messy Little Raindrops was released, charting at number 1 in the UK, 2 in Ireland and 7 in Europe.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(You you you you)
You know what I want
Feel it all over my body
Every time we touch
Talk me to into something now
I'm trying to back it up
(Give it to me) back it up
You know what I want
Grinding up on me
If you want it try your luck
Gimme gimme goodies
Just don't do it in the club
All the people looking at us, so what
You know damn well that I don't
Usually do, all of this, but here's a kiss
Look me in the eyes
And tell me that you like me
Why don't you invite me,
Yeah yeah yeah
Whoa! Whoa!
I just wanna give you my body
Whoa! Whoa!
Boy you make me feel so naughty
You say the right things baby, I like it
You say the right things baby, I like it
Whoa! Whoa!
Baby I like it
Keep on talking to me
Keep talking to me
Keep on talking to me
Keep talking to me

Started off with just a whisper in my ear
Say it louder cause it's
Getting harder to hear
Take it off cause its getting hot here
It's hot in here
Do it do it do it baby do it all night long
Do it do it baby
Now you got me in your palm
I'd rather do it and regret it in the morn
You know damn well that I don't
Usually do, all of this, but here's a kiss
Look me in the eyes
And tell me that you like me
Why don't you invite me,
Yeah yeah yeah
Whoa! Whoa!

'Cause you know ya head right
Way you move is hypnotic
If you want we can go
Somewhere more private, private
Baby it's nothing
You can have all my loving
You ain't busy later
Maybe we can get into something
You ain't ready for me through
I can tell you think you're something
By the size of your ego
Girl you know you want it
(Do it do it do it baby)
So why you running from me
(Do it do it do it baby)
There goes the bed hopping,
Let's get it popping
Til we hear the neighbors
Come knocking, knocking
Like, like, like, whoa
Whoa! Whoa!
I just wanna give you my body
Whoa! Whoa!
Boy you make me feel so naughty
