It’s the most romantic day of the year if you’re happily in love. If you’re not, then it’s quite possibly the most tedious, lonely and depressing one on the calendar. Ever the diplomats, here in the Spotlight Office we want to include all our colleagues in the celebrations and commiserations, so we created two Valentine’s playlists; one for Everybody In Love and another for those who are Single.  

The legacy of Natasha Bedingfield’s much-loved breakthrough hit is still a work in progress. Released nearly 20 years ago, it was the title track from her debut album, the theme song for seminal reality TV show The Hills and now, a key plot hook in new rom-com Anyone But You.

It’s the middle of January and the vibes are low. But don’t despair – here in the Spotlight office we’ve been cranking up the stereo and endorphins with these big hits that’ll get you through to Feb. It’s all daffodils from here.
