I like it a lot. I hate the way Redone makes everyone say his name at the beginning of the song though, was cool at first now its just annoying.

This sounds good. Will be looking forward the the studio version. I like the more dance sound the Sugababes are gpong for, and I think I might get their album.

Cute.

I do miss their edgy, urban sound of old though. :sleep:

Oh my God that's brilliant! I've only heard it once and the chorus is stuck in my head. I like it more than Get Sexy as it showcases all three of the girls' excellent voices! Go Sugababes!

"Thank You For The Heartbreak" as well:

Both songs are better than "Get Sexy" - thank Christ!

Now all we have to do is work out the mystery behind them releasing GS first!

I really like TYFTH since it sounds more like their past urban sound.

About A Girl is good too, and far better than GS, but it sounds very generic and Gaga-ish. The sad thing is that i liked the Sugababes for their distinctive style and reluctance to follow trend - which has now disappeared.

^ I think "Get Sexy" was the calculated attempt to move away from previous Sugababes sounds to something more "current" hence releasing that first. Basically, it was a cry for attention, and I guess it worked. The other songs are far better songs, even if one of them contains the predictable line of "RedOne... Sugababes"!

Thank You for the Heartbreak is even better than About a Girl. I think it should have been the first song to be released as it would have reminded people of the classic Sugababes tracks. It reminded me of Hole in the Head and Round, Round.

Those two songs are a vast improvement on Get Sexy. It is a mystery indeed as to why they are releasing Get Sexy as the lead single from their new album? Looks like Sugababes are trying to set a new trend of releasing the worst singles from their albums first (thinking of the horrid Girls song from last year)

I love it when they say the producer's name in the song. I will listen to the song later.

OMG I thought Lady Gaga was singing "Red Wine" at the start of Just Dance not RedOne haha

Not really liking Thank You For the Heartbreak but About a Girl is soo much better than "Get Sexy"

I thought that too at first, due to the nature of the song and her singing "I've had a little bit too much"

I worked it out after i found out the producer

I like Get Sexy but think that it should have been a later single. Thank you for the heartbreak should have been the lead single

I also thought Gaga said Red Wine not Red one.... oops

GaGa deliberately made it sound like RedWine to fit with the song better. She did small things like this through-out the album, making words sound different. =]. I know other examples but I have had a total mind-blank. I'll post when I remember.
