Eden's Crush - Two Way

90s kids are old enough to remember the first season of Popstars in 2001, and the girl group that came out of it.  The only member of Eden's Crush that is doing anything relevant now is Nicole Scherzinger (and even that is debatable), but for good poppy fun, we've got their one and only album that was semi-successful.  Popstars produced a few good hits, but "Two Way" has always been a favourite of mine, and is still a favourite twelve years after its release (wow...that makes me feel old).

"Two Way" is a lesson on love, and a reminder that it takes two people to make it work.  Cheesy?  Maybe, but it works.  The vocal harmonizing of the chorus puts other girl groups to shame, and the verses are nice and sultry.  This is simply that good poppy fun, and the girls don't take it too seriously to ruin it all.  I can pick out Nicole here and there too; no wonder she got as big as she did.  We all have our humble beginnings, and "Two Way" is a pretty nice one for her.
