Bedingifield's as-yet-untitled third album is due out this fall.

The first-released track, which Bedingfield co-wrote alongside Julian Bunetta and Steve Kipner, has been chosen as the theme song for the NIVEA Happiness Campaign, which is to run through September. The singer debuted the song on a recent edition of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show."

This is Bedingfield's first new music since the release of her 2008 sophomore album, "Pocketful of Sunshine," which spawned the multiplatinum hits "Love Like This" and the title track, "Pocketful of Sunshine."
