Grammy-nominated noughties icon Natasha Bedingfield chooses her final two songs in Tracks Of My Years. Plus more fun with Ten to The Top.

Grammy-nominated noughties icon Natasha Bedingfield chooses her final two songs for Tracks Of My Years.

Natasha started her career in the 90s with 'The DNA Algorithm' alongside her siblings Daniel Bedingfield and Nikola Rachelle before going solo, and her 2004 debut album 'Unwritten' featured number 1s 'These Words' and 'Unwritten'.

The album went triple platinum in the UK, and the title track has been featured in a movie and several TV adverts, as well as becoming the theme song for MTV鈥檚 The Hills. Natasha鈥檚 music has also been featured in popular TV shows including Grey鈥檚 Anatomy and The Vampire Diaries.

Natasha has sold over 20 million records in total, and she has platinum artist status, a Grammy Award nomination for 鈥楤est Female Pop Vocal Performance鈥� and multiple Brit Awards nominations.

Her smash hit 鈥楿nwritten鈥� returned to the charts earlier this year two decades after its first release following its use in the romcom 鈥楢nyone But You鈥�, and she's playing a 20th anniversary show at London's KOKO in September. Before then, she's playing a series of summer festivals, including TRNSMT in Glasgow and the Victorious Festival in Portsmouth.

Natasha's final two choices are from Lady Gaga and Coldplay.
