"Breathless" is a song by English singer Shayne Ward. It was released on 19 November 2007 as the second and final single from his second studio album Breathless (2007). [1] It peaked at number six on the UK Singles Chart.
"Breathless" tells a tale about a woman who is so wonderful, she can take a man's breath away. Ward conceived the song possibly during his relationship with his then-girlfriend Faye McKeever.
Promotion for the single was very limited; which would explain the relatively moderate chart position of the song when compared to his previous singles. The only live performances shown to the public were when Ward performed the song during the results show in the fourth series of The X Factor on 10 November 2007, BBC Switch: Sound on 17 November 2007, and on The Paul O'Grady Show on 19 November 2007.
"Breathless" entered the UK Singles Chart on 25 November 2007 at number 6. It was number 4 on the HMV Official Singles Chart. The song has so far sold 102,000 copies in the UK.
On Valentine's Day 2008, "Breathless" was announced as number 2 on the UK's greatest love songs of all time. [2]
The single was used in episode 7 of the Korean drama You're Beautiful .
"What a Wonderful World" is a song written by Bob Thiele and George David Weiss. It was first recorded by Louis Armstrong and released in 1967 as a single. In April 1968, it topped the pop chart in the United Kingdom, but performed poorly in the United States because Larry Newton, the president of ABC Records, disliked the song and refused to promote it.
"JCB" is a song by English folk music duo Nizlopi, written by members Luke Concannon and John Parker. Concannon wrote the lyric at his parents' house, drawing inspiration from his father, Kieron Concannon, and later composed the song with Parker. The theme of the song's lyric stems from a moment in Concannon's childhood when his father picked him up from school in a JCB digger and his reflections on how his peers bullied him for having dyslexia. The song tells the story of a similar boy who is fascinated with both his father and the vehicle on which they ride. He imagines his father as a hero, comparing him to several famous figures such as Bruce Lee and B. A. Baracus, and pretends to torment bullying on the playground as a Tyrannosaurus rex. Nizlopi recorded the song at FDM Records' studio and included it on their debut album, Half These Songs Are About You, released in 2004.

Although due to be released on 19 August 2007 as the first single from "Breathless", its relative underperformance on radio triggered a decision to push the single back until its eventual release with a song that received a more favourable reaction, "No U Hang Up" on 24 September.
