M2M was a Norwegian girl band that consisted of two singers, Marion Ravn and Marit Larsen. The girls had known each other since they were five, before forming the group in the mid-1990s. They debuted with their first single, "Don't Say You Love Me," in 1999. The song was featured on the the soundtrack, Pokemon: The First Movie. It was also the lead single off their debut album, Shades of Purple, released in 2000. They later released four more singles off the album: "Mirror Mirror,""The Day You Went Away,""Pretty Boy," and "Everything You Do." The album debuted at number 1 in Norway and several Asian countries and top 40 in most others, including the U.S., where it went Gold twice. It also reached the number 1 position on the Billboard Heatseakers chart for developing artists. The album went on to sell over 2 million copies worldwide.

In 2002, the girls returned with a more mature, less poppy sound, in their second album, The Big Room. In just two years, their voices had changed, especially Marion's, who was now labeled as the most talented of the group. Their first single off the album would be "Everything," followed by,"What You Do About Me." There would not be a third single.

In 2002, while on tour with Jewel, M2M was dropped by Atlantic records, citing lack of record sales, even though the album did do well in Norway, Asia, and Australia. Marion was later offered a new contract and is currently getting ready to release her first album, Here I Am in June, 2005. Marit has yet to receive a record deal and is attending a university in Norway.
