Second First Impression is the second studio album released by British singer-songwriter Daniel Bedingfield. Released in 8 November 2004, it peaked at number eight on the UK Albums Chart. The album title comes from the chorus of track 7 on the album, "Show Me the Real You", and also serves as a reference to this being Bedingfield's second album.
