4 time. Bedingfield's vocals range from F3 to D♯5. The lyrics discuss if there is a soulmate for everyone and if Bedingfield will ever find the right partner.[1] The song was released as the album's second single in July 2007. It was a commercial success, and the most successful single from N.B., reaching number seven in the United Kingdom and the top forty in the majority of the charts it entered.

The song gained popularity in the U.S after it was played in an episode of the highly rated MTV program The Hills. Promotion for the single started months after its release, in April 2009. She performed it on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, 15 April[2] and Dancing with the Stars on 21 April.[3] The song was also used throughout the final episode of season 5 of the TV series Medium and the finale of The Bachelorette's fourth season following Jesse Csincsak's proposal to DeAnna Pappas.
