It’s a trip down memory lane for British singer Craig David as he recently celebrated 20 years of his own song Unbelievable.

Released on 6 March, 2006, the track was the third and final single from his third studio album, The Story Goes…, following earlier hits like 7 Days and Walking Away.

While it did not reach the heights of some of his biggest chart-toppers, peaking at number 18 on the UK Singles Chart, the song quickly became a fan favourite, cherished for its smooth R&B vibe, memorable melody, and the lyrics.

20 years of Unbelievable

To mark the milestone, Craig took to his Facebook page with a heartwarming message reflecting on how much the song has meant to listeners since it first dropped.

This is what he said in his own words:

“20 years of Unbelievable. I remember this song like it was yesterday. From a simple melody in the studio to performing it to the Queen. Not to mention the amount of beautiful stories of so many of you playing it as your 1st dance on your wedding day. This song to perform always warms my heart & it’s ability to continue to touch yours really is unbelievable, (pardon the pun)”, wrote Craig.

Then he shared this nostalgic video:
