I hate it when people say that the Sugababes did not achieve international chart success. Although Girls Aloud only had chart success in the UK and Ireland, Sugababes actually had worldwide hits. Look here:
- Overload went top ten in Switzerland, Austria, Germany, and New Zealand (#2!)
- Freak Like Me and Round Round were hits in almost every country within Europe, the latter was #2 in NZ again
- Hole in the Head topped the U.S. dance chart (not much, but still some success) and also in Denmark.
- Push the Button: yes, their real international commercial success! The song was #1 in not only in the UK and Ireland, but also Austria and New Zealand, #2 in Germany, Norway, Hungary and Belgium, #3 in Australia (their only real hit here lol), Switzerland, Denmark, Netherlands, #4 in Sweden.
- About You Now was number one in the Czech Republic for 10 weeks! And also #1 in Hungary, #2 in Slovakia, #4 in Germany and Austria.
- Their albums have Gone gold in countries like Netherlands, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, and New Zealand.
- In total, they had #1 singles in: Austria, New Zealand, Denmark, Belgium, Czech Republic, Ireland and UK.
So yes, the Sugababes have achieved international success.
