Overview

"Hungry" is a song by British electronic music trio Kosheen. It was written by group members Sian Evans, Darren Beale, and Mark Morrison and produced by Decoder & Substance. A drum and bass track with folk-pop influences, "Hungry" was released as the fourth single (and sixth overall) from Kosheen's 2001 debut studio album, Resist, on 22 April 2002. Upon its release, the track reached number 13 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Kosheen's third top-20 hit, and gave the group their highest-charting single in Finland, where it peaked at number 10. Release and critical reception In the United Kingdom, Arista Records and Moksha Recordings had originally scheduled the "Hungry" single release for 15 April 2002, but it was delayed a week to 22 April 2002. Three formats of the single were issued in the UK: two CDs and a 12-inch vinyl disc. The first CD and 12-inch vinyl contain remixes from producers such as Tiësto, Satoshi Tomiie, Bent, and Zed Bias, while the second CD includes B-sides "Dangerous Waters" and "Live 4 Today". Reviewing the song on 8 April 2002, British trade paper Music Week listed it as a "recommended" single, comparing the track to the folk-pop sound of singer-songwriter Dido combined with an "unfussy, accessible drum & bass musical template" and calling it an "absolute treat". In Australia, the song was released on 3 June 2002 as a CD single containing selected remixes. Chart performance On the week beginning 28 April 2002, "Hungry" debuted at its peak of number 13 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Kosheen's third top-20 hit and the last single from Resist to reach the top 40; it spent four weeks on the listing. On the UK Dance Chart, the track peaked at number four the same week. In Finland, "Hungry" became Kosheen's second and final single to chart as well as their highest-peaking song, debuting at number 10 on the 22nd chart week of 2002, its only appearance in the top 20. On 8 June 2002, the song appeared on Flanders' Ultratip Bubbling Under ranking, reaching number 18. Elsewhere in Europe, "Hungry" charted for five weeks in Germany, debuting at its peak of number 79 in early September. On the Eurochart Hot 100, the single entered the ranking at number 50, it peak, on the issue date of 11 May 2002.
