Bush’s debut album, released December 6th 1994. It became the band’s most popular album, peaking at number four on the US Billboard 200 and boasting numerous successful singles.

When asked why lead singer Gavin Rossdale chose the name “Sixteen Stone” for the name of their album, he said: “Once upon a time there was a lonely man… my friend, who called a phone number advertising a ‘21-year old Scandinavian beauty, new in town.’ When she arrived, she was forty years old and sixteen stone…” (a stone is a unit of weight).
