Which one do you think Gwen Stefani did better in. I was little when No Doubt was actually around, but I do think they made some great songs. My favorite songs by No Doubt are : Don't Speak, Sunday Morning, and It's My Life. I don't really know why the band broke up, but I think it was for the better. The band was more like "Gwen Stefani And These Back Up Peope." I think Gwen Stefani did well on her own. I love her songs: Rich Girl, Bubble Pop Electric, Crash, Danger Zone, Wind It Up, and Sweet Escape. Gwen is a very talented singer, but what happened to her? She like disappeared after her album came out in about 2008. Anyway, when do you think she did her best work? In No Doubt, or as a solo artist?

I like the idea that she and her band mates reunited together. It proves that the band doesn't age, most especially to their music. I've no problems her being back with the band. In fact, it makes her more trending.

I remember listening to Gwen way back during her days of being solo. My daughter use to listen to her on the radio and knew all of her songs. We'd sing to them as we were driving in the car. I like Gwen when she was solo and she wrote most of her songs it was a form of therapy for her and she was an instant success pretty much like madonna -- for some reason music is a wonderful way of coping with depression and this does bring out the best in most artists -- Gwen is busy raising a family and i'm sure she'll be back in a few years to record another album.

I have always liked Gwen Stefani both as a solo artist and also as a member of No Doubt. Although being a solo artist she has more artistic license and leeway to do as she wants with the songs, etc. And as a member of the group No Doubt she has to also listen to and use input from the other members of the group as well. I wish she would release another album, either a solo album or another No Doubt album but I know she is busy at the moment raising her children and being a wife. She is also busy as a designer for her Harajuku Lovers line and also being a spokesmodel for L'Oreal cosmetics and haircolor. Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

I definitely liked Gwen before, when she was part of No Doubt. They have so many good songs... Just a Girl, Different People, Spider Webs, Hey Baby, Ex-Girlfriend, Don't Speak, Are you Happy Now?, Bath water (I forget the name..) She was always the main focus of the band, but I liked the style, which was more like ska/punk rock over the "hip" kind of type of pop/hip hop that she did as a solo act (IE: B-A-N-A-N-A-S! ). But she did have some good songs, Sweet Escape, Crash, and Early Winter are all ones that I liked. So it was something different and she didn't fail horribly at it. But I do prefer No Doubt if I had to choose, they just had a more original song.

For me, I like her songs better when she was in No Doubt. It's just my opinion though. I like their upbeat songs and they're unforgettable.

I have always liked Gwen Stefani, and Don't Speak has always been one of my all-time favorites. Too bad No Doubt broke up, I guess it was just a wise career move for Gwen Stefanie to go solo. :)
