Everyone's Got One is the debut album by English rock band Echobelly. Released to a favourable response from critics,[7] the album reached number 8 in the UK Albums Chart. On 21 July 2014, a 2CD expanded edition of the album was released by 3 Loop Music which featured B-sides and previously unreleased live material.

In 2017, Pitchfork placed Everyone's Got One at number 48 on their list of The 50 Best Britpop Albums.[8]

Background

Reflecting her fascination for wordplay, lead singer Sonya Madan titled the album Everyone's Got One, with the first letter of each word spelling "EGO", a common theme throughout the album.[1]

Madan wrote the songs "Today, Tomorrow, Sometime, Never" and "Call Me Names" about her feelings of alienation due to her Indian heritage: "Even though I have a brown skin, I didn't feel Asian. I felt alien".[9] "Father Ruler King Computer" discusses her anger towards arranged marriages: "I was brought up, I've been told, that a husband is the goal. What connotations in these loaded words, a spinster and a bachelor, I am whole all by myself, I don't need nobody else."[9] Other topics covered in her lyrics include empowering women ("Give Her a Gun"), self-confidence ("I Can't Imagine the World Without Me"), a friend's abortion ("Bellyache"), and loneliness ("Close… But").[9]
