“Perrie knows this is one of my absolute favourites. But I think we all knew deep down this was the song that was going to save everything.” Although it wasn’t completely instant in terms of us all loving it, if I’m honest. And then KAMILLE-our saviour, our angel-came and gave us ‘Black Magic’. We'd scrapped a whole album and we were freaking out. But it definitely came out around a time we genuinely thought we were getting dropped by our label, put it that way. “I don’t want to say ‘Black Magic’ saved our career, because that sounds a little bit dramatic. It’s also probably the most mature song that we've done.” We did the video with Parris Goebel and the choreography was just epic. And no matter if you didn't even like Little Mix or if you weren't a fan, you loved ‘Touch’. “I feel like this was the moment people's ears pricked up and were like, ‘Oh, is this Little Mix?’ and we gained a new fanbase from it. Every era has its own moment and stands for something different.” Read on as Pinnock, Edwards and Thirlwall each choose their three favourite Little Mix songs from their band’s glorious first decade. Then Glory Days literally did capture the glory days where we felt we did capture our place in the industry, LM5 was our coming-of-age record where we evolved into these ballsy women and Confetti brings everything together. DNA was just an experimental pop album, Salute was very much more to our specific tastes and a bit ahead of its time in terms of what the UK was after and Get Weird was an absolutely glorious shitshow of out-there pop music. “I’m proud of what we’ve achieved together and the evolution you can hear going through the records. “It’s been overwhelming, actually,” says Thirlwall. A decade on, Between Us allows the band an opportunity to celebrate their success. Much like One Direction, though, the band’s origin story fast became a footnote once the tidal wave of shape-shifting hits began rolling in. Thirlwall, Pinnock, Perrie Edwards and former member Jesy Nelson were carefully pieced together on the UK X Factor in 2011, and would become the first group to win the show.

Little Mix, of course, are part of reality TV lore. We sat back and thought, ‘How have we done this? Ten years’ worth of fucking tunes.’” But Jade’s right: There are just so many. “And we also listened to the fans and we know what they love. “We all have our favourites,” Leigh-Anne Pinnock says.

“So putting together a greatest hits was very hard to narrow down.” Thirlwall isn’t using hyperbole here: In 2021 they became the first girl band to have spent 100 weeks inside the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart, and this hits collection follows six studio albums, sell-out tours and an entire night out’s worth of karaoke classics. “There are too many bops to choose from, truth be told,” Little Mix’s Jade Thirlwall tells Apple Music.
