 Natasha is a Doll, April 29, 2008
and if this album is short on quantity, the quality makes it worth it. Two cuts...the title, which expresses a rather overt idea, though the song is far from explicit, and a live version of "Unwritten" that singer and audience both obviously enjoyed.
Really sexy album cover [cute feet], and plenty of guts to express the desire to get pregnant so openly, though the number is clean; no reference whatever to the activity needed to induce pregnancy. Whether she really meant it, or if it's just a song, I have no idea. Great song, either way. History repeats: the cover of Carly Simon's "Hotcakes" is super sexy, and the album has a song about pregnancy. But Natasha is just singing; Carly had obviously taken action.
I love this little album; realize that it's short, but the music, and singer, are wonderful...bet you'll love it too.

What this song represents is actually quite an interesting sentiment. As Stewart Mason noted in his allmusicguide review the song can be read as a commentary; that is: "the most shocking thing a woman could say (either to her boyfriend or in a pop song) was that she wanted to procreate" (Mason's words).
My initial reactions to the songs from "Unwritten" (Bedingfield's first album) were: oh great songs about how I can't write songs. It made it seem like Bedingfield had nothing to say, which isn't uncommon in pop music, but often people say their nothing with a little more panache.
That that album was rather successful and that the single in question has been stripped from the American version of Bedingfield's sophomore album is telling in a rather sad way. It seems that we'd rather have our pop starlets brainless (the Jessica Simpson pose of too stupid to function); subservient (Slave 4 U); trite (intimating cliched "I love you" or "I want to make love to you" sentiments); or hyper-sexualized with a caveat - the sexuality has to be non-productive (I could trace this trend through a variety of mediums).
Bedingfield isn't even actually straying that far from standard sentiments, she just takes the current "bump n' grind" lyrical sentiment, common in many songs ("Promiscuous Girl"), to its ultimate (non-cervical cancer or STD) conclusion - one that we see very clearly embodied by Brittney Spears with her two children and potential bun in the oven (add in little sister's impending maternity as well): sex=pregnancy.
Bedingfield's song, then, reads as potential commentary on Spears ("I see them springing up like daisies") and on America's current nonchalant attitude towards sexuality ("What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas / but what if it don't"). At the same time, the saccharine nature of the song makes it anything but a vitriolic response (Chris Crocker won't be needing to make an encore performance of his hit single "Leave Brittney Alone;" in fact Bedingfield's song is so catchy that Chris ought to film a video asking the record label to make the single more readily available to an American audience).
It's annoying enough that this song isn't available as download (or in fact in any form other than import), but on top of that iTunes (and Amazon as well actually) are carrying a cover version by a "band" poetically enough called "Tune Robbers." So, even if I decide that I do want a copy of the song (at an economical price) my money won't even be going directly to Bedingfield (though one imagines that she'll get a royalty).

I beleive htat the person above was paid to write that review. This is a horrible, contrived piece of target market media that will do nothing to better your life.
Natasha doesn't disappoint! April 23, 2007

Natasha is back with her new single "I Wanna Have Your Babies"! The track is quirky, fun, and extremely catchy. The melody of the song is a bit like her previous songs "These Words" and "Size Matters", but this one is still a unique track. The lyrics are silly, but not completely pointless. The instrumentation on the track is good, and Natasha's vocal deliverance on this track is great! This track is a great way to lead on her new album 'N.B.', and you won't be disappointed by this amazing song!
