No alternative vocal arrangement?

Lowkey one of their worst singles even though it was their last big hit. Still a 8/10 though, a testament to their immaculate singles run

It was very much the catalyst and spawn of the insane amount of promo they did for Tangled Up and summer shows/festivals and Cheryl's X Factor exposure. It may not be the best but it sure was the perfect storm, too bad that made the album sell a lot way too fast and that killed any chance for The Loving Kind and Untouchable :rip:

them rereleasing all their singles makes me realise how abysmal most of their remixes are

One of their best singles!

I never understood the success - probably my last favorite single from GA. But my friends swear by this song.

Are we planning a justice for untouchable for it's rerelease

Horrible upscale artwork via Apple Music.

The artwork for this era was a huge letdown after Tangled Up

It's coming; like with S Club, the videos are coming super delayed on YouTube (even so much as being region-blocked). I reached out to the remaster person to make them aware of this. Usually Apple Music gets it in-advance.

I liked the aesthetic of this era... it just wasn't fully executed properly. I liked the '90s vibe.

It already is. The videos are getting updated one by one. Apple Music has remastered everything upto The Loving Kind and YouTube is stuck on Sexy! No No No... so far

oh you're right. just watched two of them :lmao:thank you for the heads up!

I still can't get over at the font and style of artwork they picked for this era... The photo shoot was stunning, but the font/placement of the words were terrible

 

 

this whole era was amazing though. I even went out to pick up a physical copy of the album x

I forget this was so close to the end of their original run. One of their best. :clap3:

This song is still a miss for me. The remixes are also terrible :coffee2:

She should have been the single instead, it's cute

Per Chris Fox, the remasters are sent to YouTube around the same time, but if the video does not lineup with what's already uploaded, YouTube declines it. This is a YouTube issue, not a Fox / Girls Aloud one, unfortunately, but he's working on that plus un-blocking the region-blocked videos.

None of their videos except Sound of the Underground are in 4k. I wonder if it's coz they weren't shot on film

Every music video is updated to 4k now! The Loving Kind is the only one that isn't. It's all getting updated for half a year now, it's coming with the Digital EP reissues.

They're HD but upscaled to 4k

A stone cold classic! The song that got me into Girls Aloud and brit-pop in general.

The Promise is their best song by far.
