Ghosts is the second and last album by singer Siobhán Donaghy. Released on June 25, 2007, the album peaked at #92 on the UK Album Chart. This album received more media attention than her debut album, but was overall a commercial failure despite receiving excellent critical reviews.
This is Siobhán's only studio-album with Parlophone, as her label dropped her in August 2008.
