What?

This is a collection of colour palettes based (mainly) on pop album covers.

Featuring:

  • Aqua (Barbie Girl)
  • Bangles (In Your Room)
  • Beck (Midnite Vultures)
  • Betty Boo (Where Are You Baby)
  • B*Witched
  • Deee Lite (Groove is in the Heart)
  • Kelly Clarkson (All I Ever Wanted)
  • No Doubt Tragic Kingdom
  • Rick Astley Never Gonna Give You Up (Remix)
  • S Club 7 (S Club)
  • Spice Girls (Spice Up Your Life)
  • Steps (Step One)

Why?

Because I’ve done Metallica and classic rock.

The rockthemes has some pop acts featured in it as well, including No Doubt and DeeeLite. They’re included here - and the palettes have been tweaked slightly.
