早年經歷
經歷了接招(TakeThat)、辣妹(SpiceGirls)和男孩地帶(Boyzone)等樂隊的崛起和殞落後,英國樂壇馬不停蹄地開始發掘新的流行偶像。A1、西城男孩(Westlife)、Hear'Say和舞曲流行三人組原子小貓紛紛加入排行榜和媒體之爭。樂迷之所以喜歡原子小貓,主要是她們的經歷與辣妹組合肥皂劇式的故事頗有相似之處。
1999年,原子小貓由OrchestralManoeuversintheDark的安迪·麥克拉斯基(AndyMcCluskey)組建,來自利物浦的娜塔莎·漢密爾頓(NatashaHamilton)、凱麗·柯塔娜(KerryKatona)和莉茲·麥克拉倫(LizMcLarnon)為實現自己的流行明星夢走到了一起,當年夏天她們與InnocentRecords公司簽下契約時,還都是十幾歲的青春少女。
原子小貓的《RightNow》和《SeeYa》一經發行立刻打入歐洲Top10排行榜,2001年冬,《WholeAgain》成功奪冠。她們在MTV上獨領一時風騷,但是這樣的成功並非一帆風順。早在2000年9月,凱麗公開宣稱自己與西城男孩成員布萊恩·麥克范登(BryanMcFaden)拍拖已有一年,而且珠胎暗結,不久兩人正式訂婚。柯塔娜不喜歡四處奔波,因此離開了組合,Precious的詹妮·弗洛斯特(JennyFrost)填補了她的空缺,此後《RightNow》為原子小貓贏得的讚譽讓凱麗對自己的愚蠢之舉後悔不迭。PS 13年正式回歸組合取代Jenny Frost,
2001年的《TheTideIsHigh》讓原子小貓的人氣更加旺盛,十多首冠軍單曲的成績直逼TheSupremes和辣妹組合。2002年專輯《FeelsSoGood》中的《BeWithYou》和《TheLastGoodbye》兩首單曲的成功,讓原子小貓簽下了維京公司。當舞曲《LoveDoesn'tHavetoHurt》在英國排行榜上如火如荼時,原子小貓又忙著錄製同名的首張美國專輯,這張大碟發行於2003年4月。
演藝經歷
原子少女貓(簡稱AK)是在出產世界超級巨星 披頭士的利物浦,所組成的三人少女組。成員有Natasha、Kelly、Liz等三人。Kelly有著金色頭髮,Liz則有著一頭短髮, 三人都是相當有個性的女孩。
原子少女貓在正式出道前就跟隨師姐Spice Girls相同的腳步,在日本積極的展開宣傳活動。 讓所有扶桑客對她們產生了興趣。隨後即回到英國發行首支單曲“Right Now”,初登場即躍進排行前十的位置。親和、平易近人活潑俏皮且非常迷人可愛的E世代風格,更是在英國眾多的知名雜誌中被堂堂廣泛地介紹出來。
原子少女貓起初由三個活潑可愛的小女生:Natasha(娜塔夏)、Liz(麗絲)、Kerry(凱莉)組成,因為Kerry懷了Westlife(西城男孩)團員Bryan的寶寶,被迫暫時退出團體,由新進團員Jenny替換重新組合的原子少女貓2001年再接再厲推出新專輯《Right Now 2001》。
所以說Kerry離開了,並沒有自立門戶,她好像和Bryan離婚了,有兩個女兒。Jenny替代了Kelly。
if you come to me 是和新成員唱的。
在還未發專輯的情況下就獲得了英國《Smash Hits》雜誌最受歡迎藝人第12名,而以80年代的迪斯科舞曲伴奏間雜電音效果的首支《Right Now》更突顯她們對音樂和潮流的敏銳感。
《Right Now 2001》除了收錄2000年發行的《Atomic Kitten》中的9首單曲外,還加收《Follow Me》等5首全新作品,一發行即奪下英國專輯榜第一名。經過多場表演的磨練、歌唱技巧更趨成熟、她們成功地翻唱了Bangles(手鐲合唱團)的暢銷名作《Eternal Flame》,並連續兩周奪下英國單曲金榜冠軍,也終於穩坐頭號接班女子團體的頭名!

經典歌曲 Nothing In The World
Atomic Kitten
It's been so long I can't remember when
We didn't care how deep it was we dived right in
Watching everything around us disappear
Oh I've missed you here
And it seems the little things get in the way
We're so caught up in routine from day to day
Sometimes it feels like we're not anchored anywhere
Oh I've missed you yeah
So tell me there's nothing in the world
That could ever come between us
Show me your not afraid tonight Baby make me believe
That there's nothing in the world
That could ever
steal the moment from right here and now
(nothing)
Nothing
in the world
Two shadows falling back together now
Baby we've spent too much time just hiding out
And there's nowhere that I'd rather be than here
Cos I've missed you yeah
So tell me there's nothing in the world
That could ever come between us
Show me your not afraid tonight Baby make me believe
That there's nothing in the world
That could ever
steal the moment from right here and now
(nothing)
Nothing
in the world
Nothing in the world
(in the world)
There's nothing in the world

AtomicKitten(原子小貓)目前已經是英國最紅的女子組合,近兩年她們陸續推出的單曲幾乎無一例外地都是一上榜就登上冠軍位置,火得一塌糊塗!相信這張最新大碟仍然可以讓她們再創輝煌!其中的It'sOK已經在之前登上了冠軍位置,而TheTideIsHigh這首單曲在上周一上榜就是英國UK單曲榜的冠軍位置,而本周則繼續蟬聯冠軍!
組合“解散”
繼2000年年底推出新專集《Ladies Night》不到兩個月時間,來自英國利物浦的美少女樂隊組合“原子貓”傳來分手的訊息。“原子貓”方面的公開說法是,她們將“休整12個月”,讓娜塔莎能多點兒時間陪伴兒子喬什。
自走紅起,“原子貓”三人組合珍妮·弗羅斯特、利茲·麥克拉儂和娜塔莎·漢密爾頓,不斷傳出內訌謠言,而按原計畫,“原子貓”將完成2005年2月開始的17場演唱會契約,並於3月推出精選集。
