Her first single, called Light Of My Life, was published in October. Critics saw it as a good choice to Nurding with a number as to launch this as a singer. Initially it was expected that the singer with a poppy upbeat song would arrive. That thought Nurding itself. But Light Of My Life was so well edited (including the insertion of an orchestra) that she did have at peace. The song reached the 8th place in the British charts. ==Naked <span class="mw-editsection" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[  edit <span class="mw-editsection-bracket" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:20.3636360168457px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:14px;">In early 1996, followed by a second single: Love Walked In. This number was less successful and was not higher than no. 17 in the charts in England.

The first single from the album Arms Around The World debuted at no. 4 in the UK charts and was Nurdings most successful single to date. Just before Christmas that year, the disco-like Let's Go Round Again, originally a song from The Average White Band .

The album even outperformedBefore The Rain, the third album of Eternal which also appeared that year. During the tour appeared the 3rd single All That Matters. ==Elbow Beach <span class="mw-editsection" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[  edit <span class="mw-editsection-bracket" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:20.3636360168457px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:14px;">After the success of Woman In Me, 1999 was a year in which Nurding spent most of his time out of the spotlight. At Elbow Beach in Bermuda she married footballer Jamie Redknapp, with whom she had a few years together. From that moment she performed as though Redknapp name. After their honeymoon, the singer began with the construction of a new album. There they took over a year on. In mid-2000 the album was released under the title Elbow Beach, named for the location where Louise and Jamie were married. The album was her most personal work to date and had an r & b / Funky-like sound. The first single 2 Faced won the 3rd place in England and was thus its biggest hit. The new album entered the charts at no higher than 12th place. For the CD to provide better sales, the song Beautiful Inside was released as a single. It did not help. The number was no higher than # 13 and the album disappeared as quickly from the album list. ==Changing Faces <span class="mw-editsection" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[  edit <span class="mw-editsection-bracket" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:20.3636360168457px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:14px;">After this period Redknapps record contract for five albums (Always & Forever by Eternal count) almost to an end. EMI Music wondered whether it was wise to let Redknapp record a whole new album. Sales of Elbow Beach was disappointing and no one knew whether they would survive with a new CD. The label Redknapp suggested the choice to release a compilation album or an album going to make it in sound and style would resemble Woman In Me, which is still the most appreciated by the audience. The singer did not last. That way they could not develop well as an artist. For that reason appeared eventually greatest hits album called Changing Faces - The Best Of Louise. For the CD took the singer three new songs, including Stuck In The Middle was released as a single. It won the 4th place. The album reached # 9 and was awarded gold.

Instead of large rooms that she did to her previous tour, the singer would appear this time in more intimate venues. The 'Changing Faces' Tour was considered a success. All 36 performances were sold out quickly. Afterwards left the singer EMI Music. Later it became clear that EMI thought Redknapp her strength as an artist was lost. In 2002 the singer signed a new recording contract with Positive Records. In 2003, a new double A-side single Pandora's Kiss / Do not Give Up. It climbed to 5th place in the British charts. A brand new album, however, was not released because of her first pregnancy. After this her singing career come to be on the back burner. In recent years, Redknapp is mainly concerned with motherhood and presentation jobs on British television.
