Sunday Love is the unreleased second studio album by pop-rock singer Fefe Dobson. The release date was pushed back a number of times by Island Records before its eventual cancellation. The album had earned good reviews, including the highest rating given on any of the albums reviewed in the July 2006 issue of Vibe.[8] After the album was cancelled, Dobson commented on her MySpace blog, "I always believe everything happens for a reason, and that change is a very good thing." The album has since fully leaked on the Internet.

Background

Dobson began work on Sunday Love during the summer of 2004. The album's fourteen tracks were recorded over an eight-month period in California. Island Records set an initial US release date of September 20, 2005. Neither single released from the album—"Don't Let It Go to Your Head"[1] or "This Is My Life"[2]—charted. There is an official music video for "Don't Let It Go to Your Head".[9]
However, no video was made for "This Is My Life".

Another song from the album, "Be Strong", appears on the It's a Boy Girl Thing soundtrack.[10]

Promotional items

There were "For Promotional Use Only" CDs, sometimes referred to as DJ singles, produced for the two singles.[11]

Two samplers were also produced to promote the album:

Covers

Dobson's "Don't Let It Go to Your Head" is covered by Lilyjets, a Norwegian girl group, as a single[15] from their 2006 debut album 3rd Floor.[16] They also produced an official music video.[17]

The music of "This Is My Life" is used by the Taiwanese girl-group S.H.E in their song: "I Love Trouble" (我愛烦恼) on their 2008 album FM S.H.E[18] which became quite popular in Asia.

"As A Blonde" is also covered by Selena Gomez on their 2008 album Kiss and Tell[19][20] and Jordin Sparks on her 2009 album Battlefield.[21][22][23] Shortly after Sparks' album was released Dobson said, "Jordin Sparks just did [that song], which was on Sunday Love, which was very cool. She did kind of, like, a more R&B version of it, which I think is really nice, actually. It was really cool that she didn't try and do a rock version of it, and she did what she's more comfortable with, which I thought was awesome."[24] Sparks' version was released as a single in the UK on January 4, 2010.[25]

The unreleased track "As a Blonde"[26] is covered on Selena Gomez & The Scene's 2009 debut album Kiss & Tell.[27][28]
