Are they being counted down as two parts or one?

Posted by: JosephStyles 1st March 2021, 04:05 PM

One! I'll post separated results at the end for comparison purposes too

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 1st March 2021, 10:11 PM

I always enjoy countdowns so im looking forward to this.

Posted by: Ultra's Version 1st March 2021, 10:12 PM

I forgot to rate in part 2, and I oop.

my poor 11 saved for FFTL wasted and I oop

Posted by: Jade 1st March 2021, 10:13 PM

'Sexy! No No No...' to do as well as possible please.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 1st March 2021, 11:26 PM

Hopefully something new can do ok in this.

Posted by: JosephStyles 2nd March 2021, 09:15 AM

46 5.01 Girls Aloud - Beautiful 'Cause You Love Me
47 4.90 Shane Filan & Nadine Coyle - I Could Be
48 4.84 Sugababes vs Girls Aloud - Walk This Way
49 4.79 Sarah Harding - Threads
50 4.10 Alistair Griffin feat. Kimberley Walsh - The Road
51 2.28 Alfie Boe & Kimberley Walsh - One Vision

No huge surprises in the first section but a very comfortable last place, and Beautiful Cause You Love Me dives out despite getting TWO 11s...! Poor Sarah loses her only solo single too.

Posted by: Jade 2nd March 2021, 09:50 AM

Most of those are deserved although I prefer 'Threads' and 'Walk This Way' to some solo stuff still to come!

Posted by: Herbs 2nd March 2021, 10:38 AM

I knew Beautiful Cause You Love me was going to be low but I will always love that song 😍

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 2nd March 2021, 12:44 PM

Nothing in there I would consider a loss.

Posted by: Last Dreamer 2nd March 2021, 01:22 PM

I didn't vote in solo part, but "Threads" is wonderful.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 2nd March 2021, 01:22 PM

Threads and I could be too low for me but not unexpected.

Posted by: Liam.k. 2nd March 2021, 02:40 PM

'Threads' definitely deserved that.

'Beautiful 'Cause You Love Me' and 'Walk This Way' are my least favourite GA singles but they do not belong in the bottom pile.

Posted by: Jay❄ 2nd March 2021, 07:48 PM

I definitely think Beautiful and Walk This Way deserved to be higher than a few of the solo singles still to come!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 2nd March 2021, 08:32 PM

Walk this way im happy to see out as its just not for me.

Posted by: pippa 3rd March 2021, 12:04 AM

Many of the solo singles need to start going now.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 3rd March 2021, 02:10 PM

Ya there is a fair few of the solo songs that have to go before some of the Girls Aloud singles,

Posted by: spiceboy 4th March 2021, 11:12 PM

I can't even remember whatI rated Beautiful cause you love me but already looking at the above I think it's too low compared to others to come!

Posted by: JosephStyles 5th March 2021, 12:10 PM

41 5.50 Cheryl Cole - The Flood
42 5.41 Aggro Santos feat. Kimberley Walsh - Like U Like
43 5.28 Cheryl - Love Made Me Do It
44 5.12 Kimberley Walsh - One Day I'll Fly Away
45 5.10 Nadine Coyle - All That I Know

A heap of solo singles follow in this section and Kimberley loses all of her tracks! Love Made Me Do It finishes as Cheryl's lowest.

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 5th March 2021, 12:38 PM

'Love Made Me Do It' is OK, I liked it for about 5 minutes but like the rest of her discography is a bit cheap and shoddy.

'Like U Like' was hilariously bad and 'The Flood' is the worst song ever about incontinence.

Posted by: Herbs 5th March 2021, 02:32 PM

Kind of expected Like U Like to be higher, but no real surprises

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 5th March 2021, 04:44 PM

I thought like u like may have managed a top 40 place.

Posted by: spiceboy 6th March 2021, 06:06 PM

I quite liked Like you like tbh. Still no big loss as of yet.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 6th March 2021, 06:37 PM

It was good at the time but sounds very dated now.

Posted by: Lukuzz 6th March 2021, 07:26 PM

No real shocks so far, although I love The Flood, so underrated imo

Posted by: pippa 7th March 2021, 11:12 PM

Like You Like is reasonably good and likewise with One Day I'll Fly Away.

Posted by: Nina West 14th March 2021, 05:13 PM

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 15th March 2021, 02:50 AM

I'm not a fan of cheryl but unlike some fans I really like I dont care.

Posted by: Jay❄ 15th March 2021, 05:33 AM

I honestly don't think she has any singles that are bad, so that's that on that! (3 Words, Promise This and I Don't Care all get such a hard time... they were all multi week #1s in my personal chart )

Posted by: Liam.k. 15th March 2021, 06:07 AM

'I Don't Care' is fine until it gets to that piss-weak chorus. I remember watching the X Factor performance which was basically her just prancing around on her own and that really showed the song up for what it was. It seemed to me like she knew anything she released would go to #1 so didn't have to make the effort. I guess it lives up to its title.

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 15th March 2021, 09:07 AM

It sounds seriously cheap as well, just like most of her songs.

I refute that 'Only Human' is "bad" though, that's definitely one of her better ones!

Posted by: JosephStyles 12th April 2021, 01:27 PM

36 6.05 will.i.am feat. Cheryl Cole - Heartbreaker
37 6.00 Cheryl Cole feat. Tinie Tempah - Crazy Stupid Love (two 10s)
38 6.00 Nadine Coyle - Sweetest High (no 10s)
39 5.88 Cheryl - Only Human
40 5.75 Girls Aloud - See the Day

Thankfully, across the whole rate, we only had one tie, and it's right here. Cheryl loses her first #1 single and a third Girls Aloud single drops.

Posted by: Last Dreamer 12th April 2021, 01:30 PM

See The Day is criminally low.

Posted by: Cameron 12th April 2021, 05:55 PM

I love See The Day

Posted by: JosephStyles 12th April 2021, 06:16 PM

31 6.50 Nadine Coyle - Girls On Fire
32 6.38 Cheryl - Let You
33 6.29 Cheryl - I Don't Care
34 6.22 Cheryl - Under the Sun
35 6.10 Girls Aloud - I Think We're Alone Now

Solo singles continue to drop very quickly, with another four our here including three of Cheryl's.

Posted by: Herbs 12th April 2021, 07:43 PM

Nicola the only one to lose 0 solo tracks 😍

Posted by: Jade 12th April 2021, 07:45 PM

'See The Day' and 'Heartbreaker' are both underrated but I don't really care much for anything else so far.

Posted by: Lukuzz 12th April 2021, 08:47 PM

Love all 4 of those solo tracks. Let You and I Don’t Care two of my faves from Cheryl!

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 12th April 2021, 08:52 PM

I Think We're Alone Now is a cover i like, i know its not hugely popular but i find it enjoyable,

Posted by: Jay❄ 12th April 2021, 10:02 PM

Let You is painfully underrated

Posted by: JosephStyles 25th April 2021, 11:07 AM

26 7.16 Girls Aloud - Life Got Cold
27 6.88 Girls Aloud - Whole Lotta History
28 6.82 Nadine Coyle - Fool for Love
29 6.79 Cheryl Cole feat. will.i.am - 3 Words
30 6.65 Girls Aloud - I'll Stand By You

The GA tracks start to fall quicker now, with three ballads all dropping here, including the painfully underrated Whole Lotta History Fool for Love puts in a respectable showing, while the divisive 3 Words comes more-or-less in the middle of the field.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 25th April 2021, 01:08 PM

Life got cold done better than i thought, i would still put ill stand by you ahead of it.

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 25th April 2021, 01:21 PM

'I'll Stand By You' is actually really quite bland.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 25th April 2021, 06:16 PM

For me life got cold is much blander.

Posted by: pippa 25th April 2021, 10:12 PM

The results are making way for a strong Top 20.

Posted by: Jade 25th April 2021, 10:22 PM

'3 Words' is probably the biggest loss of that section for me. It's fantastic minus the M-E-T-O-O part which doesn't flow very well but otherwise a strong moment and nothing like I'd expect a Cheryl and will.i.am song to sound like. 'Whole Lotta History' and 'I'll Stand By You' are pretty nice too.

Posted by: Herbs 25th April 2021, 10:43 PM

Here’s hoping Nicola has all 3 of hers in the top 20

Posted by: Lukuzz 26th April 2021, 06:09 AM

Whole Lotta History and Life Got Cold are both so underrated and iconic. Wish they were higher!

Posted by: pippa 27th April 2021, 12:33 PM

Life Got Cold and Whole Lotta History are not widely recognised outside the fans.
Neither are songs the general public would associate with Girls Aloud.

Posted by: Herbs 27th April 2021, 01:29 PM

I looove Whole Lotta History but it always bugged me that you can only hear Nadine in the chorus

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 27th April 2021, 01:46 PM

I prefer whole lotta history to life got cold, whole lotta history has grown on me a bit over the years but i still prefer so many of their other singles/songs.

Posted by: 365 27th April 2021, 03:21 PM

Whole Lotta History is easily their best ballad (not including mid tempos like Call the Shots and Untouchable.

Posted by: Jay❄ 27th April 2021, 03:43 PM

Whole Lotta History was truly done dirty here, wtf

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 28th April 2021, 09:20 PM

Id say we will have a few surprises ahead in the countdown.

Posted by: pippa 29th April 2021, 10:28 PM

Many of their finest moments remain to be announced and I hope my own favourites are placed highly.

Posted by: Warwick Avenue 1st May 2021, 05:35 AM

Great to see Nicola still has some songs in the rate, hopefully at least one makes the top 10.
