===2001β2002: ''Thinking It Over'' and touring=== On 24 September 2001, whilst the group were known as Liberty, they released their debut single, "[[Thinking It Over (song)|Thinking It Over]]". It was an instant hit, reaching number five on the [[UK Singles Chart]]; the single's physical release featured remixes by the Wideboys and [[Boy George]]. The follow-up single, "[[Doin' It (Liberty X song)|Doin' It]]", released on 3 December 2001, peaked at number fourteen. Following a five-month gap, in which the band were involved with the High Court dispute regarding their original name, their third single, "[[Just a Little (Liberty X song)|Just a Little]]", was released. That song reached number one in the UK and became the ninth best-selling single of 2002, as well as becoming a top ten hit in several other countries. It was also the fifth most played song on the radio of the 2000s.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-16372712|title=The Kylie hit you can't get out of your head|date=31 December 2012|work=[[BBC News]]|access-date=27 April 2013}}</ref> "Just a Little" preceded the release of Liberty X's debut album, ''[[Thinking It Over (album)|Thinking It Over]]'' (originally called ''To Those Who Wait'').
