Most Wanted-The Greatest Hits is a collection of all the bands huge worldwide hits, many of which written by the lads themselves. The Wanted first discussed getting back together in early to celebrate their 10th anniversary but the global pandemic got in the way. Then came the devastating and shocking news that one of the boys, Tom Parker, had been diagnosed with a brain tumor.
Tom, in his characteristically no-nonsense manner, decided to turn a personal tragedy into something more positive and set out to make a documentary for Channel 4 and Stand Up To Cancer titled Tom Parker — Stand Up To Cancer both to raise awareness of the tell-tale signs of the disease and to explore new treatments and research.
Tom made a call, a Zoom call of course, to the other four boys to initially ask them to reunite for the Royal Albert Hall show and then one conversation led to another and The Wanted reunion the fans had been clamoring for was on! The band today still boast almost 6 million monthly listeners on Spotify and have a huge worldwide following on their social media platforms. During their first five years together The Wanted became serious pop players all across the world.
The music video has also been remastered and is now available on YouTube. Yet another debut hit to make our list of songs you forgot about, The Calling's 'Wherever You Will Go' remains the band's most successful hit to date. As dance songs go, this is one of the classics from the early noughties.
Despite their name, Ian Van Dahl was a trance act rather than a person, and the song became a major hit here in the UK. Written and produced by the rapper himself, 'Lose Yourself' was featured on the soundtrack of the film 8 Mile, which also starred Eminem. What a throwback! What a pairing! Nelly teamed up with Kelly Rowland for her first single since leaving Destiny's Child.
The massive hit was a Number 1 around the world, back in Where Is The Love? It was a worldwide hit for Kevin Lyttle back in and still fills dancefloors today. The Killers' 'Mr Brightside' was originally released in , but after only receiving minor success, it was re-released a year later, becoming very popular.
The song also had huge success in the UK and around the world. Here in the UK it reached the sunny heights of Number 2. We all had a little sort of group huddle onstage, and a little private conversation It was really really cool," George added. In addition to their new single, "Rule the World," the group is releasing a greatest hit album, out next month. While it's not a dance record, George says the track definitely has a dance feel to it.
While it's a little different from what fans have heard in the past from The Wanted, "Rule yhe World" is still very much a part of the group's DNA. So I think as soon as we've come back as a five, it's us no matter what it is," George continued.
