Awake and Breathe

Awake and Breathe is the second studio album by Irish girl group B*Witched, released on 18 October 1999.

The album was recorded on the back of the success of their self-titled debut B*Witched, and marked a slight change in sound for the band, containing more dance-orientated and upbeat pop, rather than the teen pop direction of their first album.

The single "Jesse Hold On" and "If It Don't Fit" also mark a change into the country side of pop, described by the band during ITV2's The Big Reunion as "sweet and shiny".

However, poor sales of the album and the third single, "Jump Down", resulted in the band being dropped by their record label, and Awake and Breathe becoming their final album, until they got back together in 2012.

Awake and Breathe peaked at number five on the UK Albums Chart on the week of release, and was certified Platinum the same year.
