Hey Baby (No Doubt Song)
"Hey Baby" is a song by American rock band No Doubt from their fifth studio album '' Rock Steady'' (2001). Written by band members Gwen Stefani, Tony Kanal and Tom Dumont, "Hey Baby" was released as the album's lead single in October 2001 by Interscope Records. "Hey Baby" is heavily influenced by the Jamaican dancehall music present at No Doubt's post-show parties and tour bus lounges of their ''Return of Saturn'' tour. Its lyrics describe the debauchery with groupies at these parties. "Hey Baby" received generally positive reviews from music critics, although its dancehall influences had a mixed reception. An accompanying music video features scenes that mimic the parties No Doubt attending while recording the parent album in Jamaica. "Hey Baby" was commercially successful, peaking at number five on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100. It also reached the top-ten in several other countries, including Australia, Germany, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. At the 45th Grammy Award ...

" Just a Girl", co-written by Stefani, was described as "the most popular cut on the CD". The group's next album, '' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
