"Catch" is a song by British electronic music group Kosheen. Written by the group members—Sian Evans, Mark Morrison, and Darren Beale—"Catch" was included on Kosheen's 2001 debut album, Resist, as the third track. The song was originally released in November 2000 as a double A-side with "Demonstrate" but did not experience success in the United Kingdom until a re-release in 2001, when "Catch" by itself reached number 15 on the UK Singles Chart. The song additionally became a top-40 hit in four European countries and Australia.
Release and reception
In the United Kingdom, Moksha Recordings released "Catch" as a double A-side with "Demonstrate", which would become the opening track of Resist.[1] Issued on 6 November 2000 across four formats, the single stalled at number 86 on the UK Singles Chart.[2][3] Much like "Hide U", "Catch" was a success in Belgium and the Netherlands upon its initial release, reaching number five on Flanders' Ultratop chart and number 16 on the Dutch Top 40.[4][5]
In 2001, "Hide U" was re-released in the United Kingdom via Arista Records and reached a new peak of number six, which prompted a solo re-release of "Catch" on 10 December 2001.[3][6] This time, the song reached number 15 on the UK Singles Chart, staying in the top 100 for eight weeks.[3] In 2002, the song experienced chart success in Europe and Australia, entering the top 40 in Australia, Finland, and Germany.[7][8][9] In Ireland, the single peaked at number 44, while in Sweden, it reached number 52.[10][11]
