2003年进军国际乐坛的大碟《Unbelievable》展露Sarah Connor多样化的流行节奏蓝调风情，从纯情动人的《Skin On Skin》、挑战Toni Braxton抒情唱功的凄美恋曲《From Sarah With Love》、与嘻哈大将Wyclef Jean交手的激爆火辣风情力作《One Nite Stand(Of Wolves And Sheep)》、放克艳情劲奏《He’s Unbelievable》、抒情创作才女Diane Warren执笔的挑情动感之作《I Wanna Touch U There》、弥漫都会浪漫情调的《The Loving Permission》、散发复古节奏蓝调哀情小品《Where Did You Sleep Last Nite?》、街舞劲歌《Bounce》、《That’s The Way I’m》、《Sweet Thang》到节奏蓝调美声情歌《1+1=2》、《Beautiful》，还有不太出名但旋律优美哀婉的《I will find you in my heart》, 她那收放自如的情感唱腔马上就要征服你的听觉世界了。
