My 90's classic pick for the day - Anouk - "Nobody's Wife"

I heard this track last night for the first time in a while and was reminded of how good the song is. Of course this was a massive hit in early '98 (at least where I live). I do remember another song from Anouk's album being popular at the time, "It's So Hard" but I haven't really heard any stuff from her since then.
But yeah, great song and of course the fact that she's a beautiful gal doesn't hurt either. biggrin
There are two versions of the video that I know of. This is the version that introduced me to Anouk smile

Anyways, ayedunno if they are married, but she is at least living with the leadsinger of Postmen and had a few of his babies.

So she was a stay at home mom for a while.

Thanks for the link. This is REALLY different from the sound she had in '98. This is almost like an Amy Winehouse record. But yeah, I have the video for "Nobody's Wife" on tape from some MTV Pop-up Video show where one of the facts was that she was indeed somebody's wife (briefly) even BEFORE the song came out. biggrin

I remember "Nobody's Wife" being played a lot on MTV Europe back in the day. This is when most people in Europe were watching the same version of MTV, but today almost every country in Europe has a localized MTV. In fact, Iceland (where I live) is probably one of the few countries in Europe that still receives MTV Europe.
And I also remember the song being very popular on the radio. Of course I can't speak about its popularity in other countries, but I'm guessing she was quite familiar to the MTV audience.

I never said I liked her. She grates me, to be honest, but I gotta say I really like her balls.

Anouk is disgusting. A complete cliché.
Though she was entertaining when she had
them golden teeth & that dried up carrot hairdo.
According to legend she threatened 2 cut of Tommy Motola's dick. cool
