I do hope i have this correct, i included I Think We're Alone Now as Something Kinda Oooh the lead to promote the Greatest Hits and I Think We're Alone Now was the second single in that aspect.

Here i have the 2nd single released from the album, which from the 5 songs listed is the best song for you?

'No Good Advice' - their runaway best song!

Posted by: Theo. 8th August 2018, 02:47 PM

Love Machine snubbed.

Posted by: pippa 8th August 2018, 03:00 PM

All the songs here are just wonderful.
No Good Advice has picked up my vote.

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 8th August 2018, 03:18 PM

Yeah, you have missed out 'Love Machine' here actually.

Posted by: pippa 8th August 2018, 03:21 PM

Can a moderator edit Love Machine into the poll.
I had thought i had it included.

For me:

1. Love Machine
2. Call the Shots
3. The Loving Kind

(All pretty much equal tbh, I could roll the dice on the ordering of all 3 masterpieces)
4 The Loving Kind
5 Love Machine
6 I Think We’re Alone Now
7 BCYLM

Posted by: Theo. 8th August 2018, 04:04 PM

"Biology" and "Love Machine are a close top two but "Biology" gets my vote!

1. Biology
2. Love Machine
3. Call the Shots
4. The Loving Kind
5. No Good Advice
6. I Think We're Alone Now

Is the correct order.

Thank you for adjusting the poll
Apologies for my error when creating the poll.

Posted by: inyourroom 8th August 2018, 05:00 PM

Biology is so great that it almost hurts not to put it on the top of the list, but No Good Advice is my all-time favourite from them, so it gets my vote every time.

Posted by: Jay ☆ 8th August 2018, 06:10 PM

1 Call The Shots
2 Biology
3 No Good Advice
4 Love Machine
5 The Loving Kind
6 I Think We're Alone Now
7 Beautiful Cause You Love Me

Posted by: pippa 8th August 2018, 06:12 PM

It is looking like an early battle between No Good Advice and Biology.
The Chemistry era in large didnt click withe me, i found it a disappointing part of their career.

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 9th August 2018, 12:49 AM

No good advice I voted but the loving kind and call the shots are great aswell.

Posted by: Lukuzz 9th August 2018, 06:06 AM

Call The Shots

Posted by: Joe. 9th August 2018, 09:11 AM

I actually feel like No Good Advice has aged the best out of most of their singles. I feel like as a followup to SOTU it should have done a little better than it did!

Posted by: Spiceboy 9th August 2018, 12:23 PM

Call the shots

Posted by: pippa 9th August 2018, 01:29 PM

While i voted for No Good Advice i am not enjoying seeing the superb The Loving Kind on zero votes

Posted by: Jade 9th August 2018, 02:49 PM

I'm loving these polls so much pippa they've really reminded me of how much I adore Girls Aloud.

I of course voted for 'Biology' which is still an absolute masterclass in pop music with its exciting structure <3

Ranking:

01. Biology
02. Call the Shots
03. No Good Advice
04. Love Machine
05. The Loving Kind
06. I Think We're Alone Now
07. Beautiful Cause You Love Me

Posted by: pippa 9th August 2018, 02:55 PM

Thank you Jade, i am delighted you are enjoying the polls as much as i am.
The polls also remind me of the songs and bring back great memories of some of their classic hits.

Posted by: Joe. 9th August 2018, 03:38 PM

I'm loving them too Pippa. You've got me streaming the classics again. And Long Hot Summer!

Posted by: pippa 9th August 2018, 06:47 PM

Since i started doing the polls at this forum i have had alot of Girls Aloud on play.

That said, it is a limited list of:

No Good Advice
The Loving Kind
Something Kinda Ooooh
Call The Shots
The Promise
I Think We're Alone Now
Something New

Posted by: Feel_The_Fever 11th August 2018, 02:07 PM

No good advice and the loving kind for me are far better than the lead singles and I'd say the same but to a lesser extent for love machine.

Posted by: Scene 11th August 2018, 04:11 PM

01. No Good Advice
02. Biology
03. Call The Shots
04. The Loving Kind
05. Love Machine
06. I Think We're Alone Now
07. Beautiful 'Cause You Love Me

NGA is the song that got GA out of their expected one hit wonder status. Such a sassy catchy pop song and one that has aged well imo. Shame it is forgotten in the grand scheme of things. Biology is up there with it but I assumed it would be a clear winner in this poll. CTS and TLK are great, CTS did fantastically at the time and was probably their longest charting single since their debut. LM has always been a bit annoying and a song I've never chosen to listen to out of choice. But it was clearly a good single choice and is one of their most remembered.

The Show shits all over Love Machine for me

Posted by: Andrew. 13th August 2018, 02:23 PM

The Show is underrated af by the GP but overrated by fans I feel, I'm never sure which I fall into on the song


Biology, what a pop classic.

Posted by: Juranamo 13th August 2018, 03:01 PM

Cheryl, Nicola & Kimberley: “Hey Girls, let’s release this crap first.”
Nadine: “But that’ll finish us...”
C, N & K: “Isn’t that the point?”

1) Biology
2) No Good Advice

3) Call the Shots
4) The Loving Kind
5) Love Machine
6) I Think We’re Alone Now




7) Beautiful ‘Cause You Love Me

Posted by: Hide&Seek 13th August 2018, 03:26 PM

1 The Loving Kind
^^ by far the best

2 Call The Shots
3 Love Machine
^^ also excellent

4 Beautiful 'Cause You Love Me
^^ meh

5 Biology
^^ this would be higher if it didn't have that annoying bit that goes ''it's the way that we talk, it's the way that we walk''.

6 No Good Advice
^^ Shampoo reject

7 I Think We're Alone Now
^^ don't do a cover unless you can equal it or improve on it.

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 13th August 2018, 03:40 PM

SHAMPOO REJECT.

That cuts like a knife.

Posted by: pippa 14th August 2018, 01:59 PM

No Good Advice is as far away from a shampoo reject as it comes.
Call The Shots has made a very late comeback in the vote.
