Gwen Stefani- The Sweet Escape
United States- Gwen Stefani got another hit album with “The Sweet Escape”. But not as successful as the hit album “Love. Angel. Music. Baby.”. “The Sweet Escape” was certified by RIAA with platinum. Sales were lower than the debut album of her. The LP also had successful singles which the list below were the top 10 hits:
Wind It Up- #6
The Sweet Escape- #2
From five singles released, two of them went to the top 10. The first one was the number 6 hit “Wind It Up” then followed by the catchy number 2 single “The Sweet Escape”. She also charted with “4 in the Morning” but at a lower position of number 54.
United Kingdom- “The Sweet Escape” was a success with platinum award from BPI, unlike her higher selling “Love. Angel. Music. Baby.” album. It is indeed a hit album for scoring hit singles too. Their top 10 singles from the album was listed below:
Wind It Up- #3
The Sweet Escape- #2
Gwen Stefani also scored two top 10 hits from the album in United Kingdom. Two of those songs even hit the top 3 which started with the yodelling song “Wind It Up” and the song assisted by Akon “The Sweet Escape”. Gwen also had two other songs charted with “4 in the Morning” at number 22, and “Now That You Got It” at number 59.
In both US and UK, Gwen Stefani got two singles to chart. The first one was “Wind It Up” and then “The Sweet Escape”. But “The Sweet Escape” was a bigger hit when it reached number 2 in both countries. I am also choosing that song because it is the best single released from the album. Lyrically, it is also a good song. Akon was featured on it as he was also featured for his minimal vocals and co-producing it. So better enjoy the song being shared below:
