Time for 2004. Not as busy as other years for girl groups but the year saw the rise and fall of The 411, though they left us with 3 great singles. Destiny's Child returned for their final album, a year after Beyonce and Kelly launched successful solo careers. It wasn't quite Survivor successful but it did spawn three top 10 hits including the massive #2 hit Lose My Breath. Girls Aloud returned for their second album and it proved more successful than their debut, despite a #6 peak.

Destiny Fulfilled
Lose My Breath (top 5 greatest girl group songs ever imo)
Dumb (stellar song!)
Girl (don't care for any of these three much tbh - but don't particularly dislike any of them)

- Girls Aloud - What Will The Neighbours Say?
- Girls Aloud - The Show (although could have just have easily gone for 'Lose My Breath', they're probably about equal for me.
- The 411 - Dumb
- The 411 - Teardrops

'Teardrops' so did not deserve to flop as it did, although that was a particularly brutal week which involved both Avril and Anastacia also crashing in the mid-20s.

It should have been another top 10 for them. They had so much potential as a group, almost like the successors to All Saints.

It's a bit unfortunate really, things looked so hopeful for them with two top 5s under their belt. Then 'Teardrops' (undeservedly) crashed in at #23, the album missed the top 40 off the back of it and that was the last we heard of them sad.gif

Crazy really how cutthroat the industry was back then. Even GA were lucky to get a second album despite scoring 4 top 3 hits.

Girls Aloud had the best era overall but Lose My Breath and Soldier were 10/10 singles for me so both got my vote

A Girls Aloud clean sweep for me but 'Dumb' did run 'Love Machine' close and I do really like 'Lose My Breath' as well. I wasn't too enthusiastic about any of the 3rd single picks oops.

It has been a pleasure to revisit What Will the Neighbours Say? recently with the reissue wub.gif
