This is the solo discography of Scottish singer–songwriter Sharleen Spiteri. Following the release of Texas' seventh studio album Red Book (2005), Texas began a hiatus which lead Spiteri to embark on a solo career. Her debut solo album, Melody, was released in 2008 to critical and commercial success. It reached number three on the UK Albums Chart, and spawned the successful single " All the Times I Cried". Subsequent single releases from the album, " Stop, I Don't Love You Anymore" and " It Was You" were less successful. A promotional single, " Don't Keep Me Waiting" was released exclusively in Switzerland, where it reached number seventy-eight on the Swiss Singles Hot 100 Charts. [1]

Her second solo album, The Movie Songbook, was released on 1 March 2010. Whilst commercially less successful than Melody, it still charted strongly in the United Kingdom, France and Belgium, where it reached number thirteen, twenty-eight and twenty-seven (Flanders) and fifty-seven (Wallonia) respectively. [2] [3] It spawned one single, a cover of the 1980 song by Olivia Newton-John and Electric Light Orchestra " Xanadu", which reached number seventy one on the UK Singles Charts. [4]
