First round is FREE CHOICE!

Jay and I have got a rough plan for what to send but we want to hear your thoughts. Obviously we're spoilt for choice in rounds that are open like this but SOUND OF THE UNDERGROUND could be a really strong start!!

Posted by: JSG 6th August 2021, 09:05 PM

That's an okay song, personally not a fave if mine at all but it would have wide appeal.

Posted by: spiceboy 7th August 2021, 08:03 AM

My favourite girls aloud song! It would be nice to start at the beginning!❤️

Posted by: Chemistry 7th August 2021, 03:30 PM

SOTU is certainly one of their best and most iconic songs, so would be an excellent choice.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 8th August 2021, 12:50 AM

A great choice to start with.

Posted by: -Jay- 8th August 2021, 06:20 PM

Round 1 has begun! http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=247921&view=findpost&p=6928251

We have sent Sound of the Underground cool2.gif

There's 24 songs, what you have to do is pick your Top 12 and reply to the thread with your choices. Hopefully that will include Girls Aloud! biggrin.gif

On The Metro or Wild Horses this round please

Posted by: JosephStyles 12th August 2021, 04:14 PM

ROUND 02

Album Track
> Any song from an album which wasn’t pushed as a single . <

On the Metro and Girl Overboard feel like the immediately obvious choices here, I think I'd lean to On the Metro!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 12th August 2021, 04:47 PM

Id probably lean to on the metro.

Posted by: Jade 12th August 2021, 05:13 PM

Team 'On The Metro' as well wub.gif

LOVE this song, but definitely not laugh.gif

On the metro is the obvious choice but what about Models 😍

Posted by: London 12th August 2021, 11:18 PM

I think on the metro is probably the safest / obvious choice but honestly, my favourite girls aloud album track is Girl Overboard.

Posted by: Chemistry 13th August 2021, 11:38 AM

On The Metro would indeed be the strongest choice.

Posted by: Mike Sugafan 13th August 2021, 11:56 AM

I agree with On The Metro

Posted by: Tafty³³³ 16th August 2021, 01:42 PM

ALL TO PLAY FOR (TRULY!)

SO close around the top half! Voting closes tonight at 23:59 (BST)!

Very strong song selection for Girls Aloud.

I think No Good Advice or Wake Me Up??

Posted by: PAJ 17th August 2021, 12:11 AM

Nadine - Insatiable
Nicola - Luck Day

Are my two left field choices, or:

No Good Advice
Whole Lotta History
Can't Speak French

Posted by: JosephStyles 17th August 2021, 12:36 AM

Can't Speak French would be my personal top choice but it seems to have random haters tearsmile.gif sad.gif

Posted by: Ho-Lee Smokes 17th August 2021, 12:37 AM

No good advice

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 17th August 2021, 01:20 AM

No good advice

Posted by: Chemistry 17th August 2021, 04:46 AM

No Good Advice would seem the most obvious choice, although it could also be fun to take a risk this round (after they did so well in the first two rounds) and send a Nicola album track.

Posted by: London 17th August 2021, 06:37 AM

I’m not a fan of No Good Advice. Doesn’t mean it won’t do well - lots like it probably - it’s just - edit:not - a personal preference.

From the singles list left, I love Long Hot Summer.
Also like Life Got Cold & Wake Me Up

Posted by: -Jay- 17th August 2021, 07:58 AM

I’d like No Good Advice to have its moment… it’s the song that made me laminate my stan card *.*

Posted by: awardinary 17th August 2021, 08:09 AM

Yep I too want No Good Advice from those choices!

Posted by: spiceboy 17th August 2021, 09:57 AM

No good advice definitely that’s such an amazing track 😍

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 17th August 2021, 10:00 PM

No good advice has always been one of my faves from them.

Posted by: PAJ 18th August 2021, 04:02 AM

No Good Advice sounded so good in the playlist amongst the other songs.

Posted by: -Jay- 18th August 2021, 05:50 AM

Round 3 is now open: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=248137

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 18th August 2021, 12:53 PM

Great choice, i will be voting later as i have my 10 picked but am undecided on my remaining 2 but girls aloud are 100% in my vote.

Posted by: JosephStyles 21st August 2021, 12:06 PM

WE WON ROUND 3! cheer.gif

Round 4 is ballads & midtempos - as timely as the Call the Shots ballad/midtempo discussion is, we're thinking of saving that for a later round. Perhaps Call the Shots' musical sister The Loving Kind could be a great entry this round though? heart.gif

Posted by: spiceboy 21st August 2021, 12:30 PM

I'm totally here for The Loving Kind it's one of my favourite Girls Aloud songs! Untouchable could be a great choice for this round too though it's stunning.

Posted by: Mike Sugafan 21st August 2021, 12:33 PM

I'll go with Untouchable, if it considers as a mid-tempo
Untouchable >> The Loving Kind

Posted by: JosephStyles 21st August 2021, 12:41 PM

We actually have Untouchable pencilled in for a later round too! *.*

Posted by: JSG 21st August 2021, 01:33 PM

I'd love the Loving Kind it's a smashing pop song. I'm glad to hear that Untouchable is penciled in for a future round. It's my fave GA song.

Posted by: London 21st August 2021, 03:12 PM

The loving kind is one of my favourite girls aloud tracks heart.gif

I always remember that bum note from Sarah on good morning Britain or whatever it was - feel quite nostalgic about it now cry.gif

I agree. I was saying to Jay and Spiceboy earlier that the Loving Kind and Untouchable are my two favourite GA songs. I adored the direction they were headed music wise when they split up 😭

Posted by: k👠th 21st August 2021, 03:38 PM

The Loving Kind has a tempo of 125 BPM which isn't mid-tempo

While Whole Lotta History has a tempo of 135 BPM apparently... laugh.gif

We're not using BPM to decide this because clearly BPM is a somewhat dodgy way of deciding what is and isn't a ballad, midtempo, etc.

Posted by: JackTheeStallion 21st August 2021, 04:11 PM

Whole Lotta History deserves what a song!

I know! I was so frustrated when they split - I loved that album so much and I felt like they were building momentum and moving towards some kind of re-peak. Although I did love Cheryl’s early solo work. That performance on X factor ohmy.gif

Me too I really think they split at the wrong time,, they were on fire sound wise and music direction.

Round 5 is free choice! GA have been doing so well so far, let's keep that going with another smash *.*

This was the round we'd pencilled Untouchable in for but open to suggestions!

Posted by: Jade 25th August 2021, 01:06 PM

'Untouchable' is stunning, I think that would do really well heart.gif

Posted by: -Jay- 25th August 2021, 01:38 PM

Untouchable heart.gif Album version or single version? thinking.gif


Results so far:

Round 1: 4th (tied) [42/60] Sound of the Underground (Free choice)
Round 2: 5th (tied) [34/53] On the Metro (Album track)
Round 3: 1st [40/53] No Good Advice (Free choice - previously unsent songs)
Round 4: 9th [38/56] The Loving Kind (Ballads & midtempos)

No Good Advice winning its round is still such a pleasant surprise cheeseblock.png

Posted by: JosephStyles 25th August 2021, 01:45 PM

I'd lean to album version tbh! The single mix seems less popular and I'm not sure the length will be too big an issue when Sign of the Times did well and that's almost as long.

Posted by: Chemistry 25th August 2021, 02:11 PM

Definitely the album version, the single version is so disappointing compared to the 6 minutes of heaven that is the album version.

Posted by: spiceboy 25th August 2021, 04:13 PM

I mean I like the single version, and if I hadn't heard the album version I'd love it but that album version is MAGIC!

I guess you're saving Sound of the underground and The promise for the next round? What about Love machine?

Posted by: JosephStyles 25th August 2021, 04:18 PM

Sound of the Underground was used in round 1! I loooove The Promise and Love Machine but they're more divisive on the whole, and we've got limited free choice options now going forward cry.gif

I'd say both Love Machine and The Promise are amongst their most famous and popular songs amongst casual listeners (besides SOTU).

Hear Me Out feels like the obvious one for a Sarah tribute wub.gif but Miss You Bow Wow is an iconic Sarah moment too so very happy to go with the consensus here.

Miss You Bow Wow >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It really could have been a single for me.

Posted by: Dill Doe 12th September 2021, 07:13 PM

Miss You Bow Wow!!! ORRRR On The Metro (100 Os and Xs)

Posted by: Dill Doe 12th September 2021, 07:14 PM

Or Close To Love - that and On The Metro were their biggest missed singles.

Posted by: JosephStyles 12th September 2021, 07:17 PM

We've sent both On the Metro and Close to Love this year already! kink.gif

Posted by: Tafty³³³ 12th September 2021, 07:22 PM

One of Girl Overboard or Miss You Bow Wow plz.

I'd campaign for the latter as you've sent GO to a previous contest iirc? But it's undeniable so........

or Heaven by Cherly or Say It Out Loud by Nicola xxx

Models and Watch Me Go says hi cheeseblock.png

Out of those I would vote for Miss You Bow Bow. Hear Me Out is a bit MOR and meh

Posted by: dandy* 12th September 2021, 07:35 PM

We ended up selecting Miss You Bow Wow to represent Girls Aloud in Round 9! As always, just vote for your Top 6, and hopefully Girls Aloud will make your list!

Posted by: PAJ 15th September 2021, 12:39 AM

Whilst it probably won’t make my top 6 I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked Miss You Bow Wow.

Thanks for picking it, it’s a really nice discovery.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 15th September 2021, 12:45 PM

I would have preferred hear me out but I do like miss you bow wow so it's in my votes.

Posted by: Tafty³³³ 17th September 2021, 11:18 AM

'Somethin Kinda Ooooh!' plz and thank you <3

Oh or 'Biology' tbh!

Or make voting easier for me and send 'Beautiful Cause You Love Me' xxx

------------------------------------------------------------------

Round 10 is the final, what shall we choose cheeseblock.png

Something Kinda Ooooh and Biology - both fabulous choices, Jonjo *.* I'd be happy with either.

Maybe The Promise... it's divisive, but it is their biggest / most signature song remaining (give or take Love Machine).

Posted by: Liam.k. 17th September 2021, 11:37 AM

Something Kinda Ooh! wub.gif wow at reaching the Top 10 in every round! Surely based on that and two wins so far, it looks pretty likely Girls Aloud will win the contest?

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 17th September 2021, 01:39 PM

Something Kinda Ooooh for me, great to see the songs doing well with the votes.

Posted by: JosephStyles 17th September 2021, 04:05 PM

SKO is my fave of that and Biology but I love both of course!

Posted by: -Jay- 17th September 2021, 05:03 PM

SKO is also my favourite out of the two! Absolutely adore both of course.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 17th September 2021, 08:48 PM

SKO is miles and miles ahead of biology for me.

Posted by: PAJ 17th September 2021, 10:20 PM

I’m guessing The Promise isn’t a good choice then?

Posted by: Last Dreamer 18th September 2021, 05:30 AM

Promise


Posted by: Dill Doe 18th September 2021, 07:25 AM

Girls Aloud

4th - 0.617970235

First 5 Rounds: 3rd - 0.668292902

After a disappointing AF Idol 2.0, Jay and I knew we wanted to come back fighting this time round, and we sure did, finishing as the top girl group! We barely deviated from a planned list of entries at the start of the competition and secured two wins along the way, from No Good Advice and Call the Shots, in what was a mostly consistent performance. Sadly, the competition coincided with losing Sarah, and we opted to send Miss You Bow Wow as a tribute in round 9 as it's one of her most iconic moments. We love you Sarah, and we're delighted that Girls Aloud have redeemed themselves this time around!
