  ## Commercial Performance
  
  Digital Spy commented on It Was You:-
  
  * Having threatened to give Paris Hilton a "Glaswegian kiss" earlier this year, it's clear that Sharleen Spiteri is no shrinking violet. Rather than falling back on the tried-and-tested Texas sound, she went all sixties on her debut solo album and, as its third single shows, it certainly paid off.
  
  'It Was You' sees Spiteri team up with producer Bernard Butler – the man responsible for much of Duffy's Rockferry album. With its soulful vocals, tooting trumpets and punchy chorus, this could almost have been a contender for the recent Bond theme. Spiteri, meanwhile, adopts the same no-nonsense approach she took with the world's most famous heiress, singing, "Something inside just died - it was you". To Spiteri's ex, it's the lyrical equivalent of a Glaswegian kiss.
