They were the first group to win the competition, and following their victory, they signed with Simon Cowell's record label Syco Music and released a cover of Damien Rice's "Cannonball" as their winner's single. The group are known for their strong vocals and signature harmonies, as well as their representation of female empowerment and unity.
Having sold 70M records worldwide, they're now the 3rd biggest girl group of all time. Little Mix has proven multiple times that they're one of the most talented and hardworking artists in the industry. They made history in 2021 as the first female girl group to have won the Brit for 'Best Group'.
The group is currently on hiatus to focus on themselves and work on solo careers. A comeback with more music as a trio has been promised by all three of the girls for the future.

Sha la la la
Sha la la la
He might got the biggest car
Don't mean he can drive me wild or he can go for miles
Said he got a lot of cash
Darling he can't buy my love, it's you I'm dreaming of
They try to romance me
But you got that nasty
And that's what I want (that's what I want)
So baby, baby
Come and save me
Don't need those other numbers
When I got my number one
Last night I lay in bed so blue
'Cause I realized the truth, they can't love me like you
I tried to find somebody new
Baby they ain't got a clue, can't love me like you
You still get it that I want
You were pouring out your love, I could never get enough
Now I'm dealing with these boys
When I really need a man who can do it like I can
They try to romance me
But you got that nasty
And that's what I want (that's what I want)
So baby, baby
Come and save me
Don't need those other lovers
When I got my number one
Last night I lay in bed so blue
'Cause I realized the truth, they can't love me like you
I tried to find somebody new
Baby they ain't got a clue, can't love me like you
Sha la la la, sha la la la (woo ooh, oh oh)
Sha la la la, can't love me like you (oh)
Sha la la la, sha la la la (woo ooh, oh oh)
Sha la la la, can't love me like you (oh)
L-O-V-E, love the way you give it to me
When you're with me, boy I want it everyday
L-O-V-E, love the way you give it to me
When you're with me, boy I want it everyday
Last night I lay in bed so blue
'Cause I realized the truth, they can't love me like you
I tried to find somebody new (woo ooh)
Baby they ain't got a clue, can't love me like you
Last night I lay in bed so blue (love the way you give it to me)
'Cause I realized the truth, they can't love me like you (boy I want it everyday)
I tried to find somebody new (L-O-V-E, love the way you give it to me)
Baby they ain't got a clue, can't love me like you (L-O-V-E)
The song "Love Me Like You" by Little Mix is a fun and upbeat tune about finding someone who can truly love and appreciate the singer for who she is. The song's opening lyrics show that having material possessions, such as a big car or a lot of money, does not guarantee true love or romance. The singer then goes on to describe how she desires a partner who has that "nasty" quality, meaning someone who is not afraid to express themselves sexually and physically.
The chorus of the song reveals that the singer has tried to find love with other partners, but they cannot compare to her number one, the person she is already with. The lyrics repeat the phrase "they can't love me like you" to emphasize that there is no one else who can match her current partner's love and affection. The middle section of the song features the fun and catchy "L-O-V-E" chant, which adds to the overall upbeat and positive vibe.
Overall, "Love Me Like You" is a song about finding true love and appreciating the partner who can fulfill all of the singer's desires and needs. It is a fun and relatable tune that encourages listeners to find their own "number ones" in life and cherish them.

Repetition of a nonsensical sound to express joy and excitement
He might got the biggest car
Just because he has a fancy car, doesn't mean he can satisfy me or put in the effort for a lasting relationship
Don't mean he can drive me wild or he can go for miles
Equality and satisfaction in a relationship depend on more than a partner's material possessions
Said he got a lot of cash
Money doesn't equate to love, which is what is desired most
Darling he can't buy my love, it's you I'm dreaming of
True love cannot be bought with material objects, and the person she desires is the one she dreams of
They try to romance me
Other men she encounters try to win her over with grand gestures
But you got that nasty
The chosen partner has a certain charm and appeal that the others don't possess
And that's what I want (that's what I want)
The alluring charm of the partner is what she desires most
So baby, baby
An affectionate way of addressing the beloved partner
Come and save me

You were pouring out your love, I could never get enough
