Why? (Mis-Teeq song)

"Why?" is a song by British R&B-UK garage girl group Mis-Teeq. It was written by Alesha Dixon, Sabrina Washington, Alan Glass, David Brant, Ronald St. Louis, and Maryann Morgan and produced by David Brant (Vybrant Music) for the band's debut single. Originally a midtempo R&B track, it was remixed into an uptempo UK garage song, by Matt Jam Lamont & DJ Face which hit number eight on the UK Singles Chart in 2001. This was the only single to feature original member Zena McNally who left the group to pursue a solo career soon after the single had been released.
