"Just a Little" is a single by Liberty X, released in 2002. The song debuted at number one in the UK when released, selling over 100,000 copies in its first week. It only stayed at number one for a week, being replaced by Eminem's "Without Me". Despite this the record remained in the chart all summer, and ended up as the seventh best selling single of the year. The record proved to be the group's breakthrough to mainstream and critical success, in the process overtaking rivals Hear'say in terms of success. To date it is the group's only number one; after the success of the Thinking It Over album from which this track is taken, the band had a gradual fall from success and follow-up singles failed to reach the top. It also reached number four in Australia and number ten in France.

The song has sold 510,000 copies in the UK as stated by the Official UK Charts Company and won the Best British Single at the 2003 Brit Awards.

The song was covered by the Swedish girl group Play on their 2003 album Replay.

During Celebrity Big Brother 6 Michelle Heaton, who performed a version of the song wearing a tight PVC catsuit for a Big Brother task, revealed that she did not contribute vocals to "Just a Little" because she "wasn't good enough to cut it."

The song was the 86th best-selling single of the 2000s in the UK.[1]

Just a Little (The Beau Brummels song)

"Just a Little" is a song by American rock group The Beau Brummels. The song is included on the band's debut album, Introducing the Beau Brummels, and was released as its second single, following "Laugh, Laugh". "Just a Little" became the band's highest-charting U.S. single, peaking at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100 in June 1965. It also reached the top 10 of the charts in Canada and Australia.

Written by guitarist Ron Elliott with frequent collaborator Bob Durand, the song was produced by Sylvester Stewart, later known as Sly Stone. A live version of the song recorded during a 1974 concert was released on the band's 2000 Live! album. "Just a Little" has been covered by such artists as The Young Rascals, Them, Nils Lofgren, The Smithereens, and Frank Black.

Composition

Written by the band's guitarist Ron Elliott with frequent collaborator Bob Durand, "Just a Little" begins with acoustic guitar strums with ascending minor-key harmonies, while electric guitar chords are heard during the chorus. With these musical elements, "Just a Little" is considered an early example of folk rock, though it also bears a stylistic similarity to British beat.
