The discography of A1, British/Norwegian boy band. Their first single, "Be the First to Believe", entered the UK singles chart at No. 6 in early 1999. They had relative success in the charts with two number #1s and six other top 10 hits. Adding to this they also won a BRIT Award for "British Breakthrough Act" in 2001. A1's journey came to an end when original member Paul Marazzi left in 2002 and the band subsequently decided to split.
