Best debut single?
 

What's the best you can remember? (and please don't just go off listing the debut single by your favourite artists...)

(I was inspired by Britney's "Baby One More Time" on the music channels)

The College Dropout

Mr Brightside - The Killers

Oh single...

Natalie Imbruglia - Torn

Somebody Told Me was their debut :tongue:

Alanis Morissette - You Oughta Know (although officially it was her first debut with her full name, it wasn't really her first released single) :hugesmile:

Lady GaGa - Just Dance

The three that come to mind.

WTF is wrong with Youtube vids??

Anyway, this is one of the best debut singles of all time;

Trying to think, but it seems not many debuts do that well these days, it's usually the second single that does well and then the debut gets rerelased

Crazy in Love

Mercy - Duffy
Adele - Chasing Pavements

Arctic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor
Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood

Dido - Thank You
Katy Perry - I Kissed a Girl
Kesha - Tik Tok
La Roux - In For The Kill

Owl City - Fireflies!

Christina Aguilera - I'm a genie in a bottle baby! (You gotta rub me the right way!)

sugababes overload

Well it's obviously got to be this.



Music genuises :p

Leona Lewis - A Moment Like This/ Bleeding Love (whatever 1 counts as debut)
Katy Perry - I Kissed A Girl

hi guys.

Black Eyed Peas - Where Is the Love?

Arctic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor
Oasis - Supersonic

A lot of non-debut singles here lol..

Through The Wire - Kanye West

Ah well!

They had 2 albums before then I think.

Natalia Kills - Zombie
Avril Lavigne - complicated
nicki minaj - massive attack

Guns N Roses - It's so easy.

Showed what was coming and hammered home the full on force of Axl and Slash.

erm,

3 Of A King - Babycakes [lol]
The Killers - Mr Brightside
Red Light Company - Meccano :love:
Black Eyed Peas - Where Is The Love [if that's their debut]

Time to point out for the second time this thread that Where Is The Love and Mr. Brightside are not debut singles.

i'd cite Where is the Love as more of a breakthrough single. Go and make your own thread for that :bored:

Orson - No Tomorrow
Girls Aloud - Sound of the Underground - I'd say they've never matched this.

The Drowners - Suede

ooh i got a really good one actually

gorillaz - clint eastwood

I wish I didn't hate lots of music.

Lily Allen - Smile

Kanye West - Through the Wire
