# Emma Bunton discography

English singer Emma Bunton has released four studio albums, sixteen singles (including one as a featured artist) and thirteen music videos. Her debut solo album A Girl Like Me was released in the United Kingdom on 16 April 2001 by Virgin Records. The album debuted and peaked at number four on the UK Albums Chart. On 7 September 2001, A Girl Like Me was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry for sales in excess of 100,000 copies, ultimately becoming the 147th best-selling album in the UK for 2001. The album brought the UK number-one "What Took You So Long?" as well as top-five hits "What I Am" (a cover of a 1988 song by Edie Brickell & New Bohemians) and "Take My Breath Away" and the top twenty single "We're Not Gonna Sleep Tonight". The album sold 127,000 copies in the UK.
Bunton's second album, Free Me, was released in 2003 through 19 Entertainment and Universal Records. Four singles were taken from it: "Free Me", "Maybe", "I'll Be There" and "Crickets Sing for Anamaria". After some success in the American dance charts, the album was sold in North America. The American edition included remixes and a different cover. "Downtown" was released on 13 November 2006 and charted at number three in the UK. Life in Mono was released as Bunton's third album on 4 December 2006, and peaked at number 65 in the UK. The second and final single from the album, "All I Need to Know", was released in February 2007 and charted at 60 in the UK. In November 2012, she released the single, "I Know Him So Well" with fellow Spice Girls member, Melanie C.
Bunton's fourth studio album, My Happy Place, was released in 2019 and was preceded by the singles "Baby Please Don't Stop" and "Too Many Teardrops". Aside from the two preceding singles, the album tracks were all cover versions of Bunton's favourite songs; the singer collaborated with Will Young, Robbie Williams, Josh Kumra and her husband, Jade Jones. In 2024, Bunton released an orchestral version of the Spice Girls' "2 Become 1" as a single.
