Sugababes: Wear My Kiss
Reviewed by jark on 3 Jan 2010
As shocking as founding member Keisha Buchanan's ousting from the Sugababes may have seemed back in September it just might prove to have been the saviour of her career, for the fourth incarnation of a group who used to epitomise cool are unleashing such a stinker of a single that it's delightfully easy to picture the Quichey one lay on a chaise longue at the top of a tower in a forest somewhere cackling away as Reggie announces a #12 chart debut for her former bandmates.

Wear My Kiss is a song so devoid of any appeal that you can't help but wonder whether Sugababes themselves even like it. It channels the ubiquitous Kristinia DeBarge by using the same sample as her minor hit Goodbye, only without any of the same sense of fun, whilst new 'babe Jade's theatrical but empty vocals can't even get to a run here without being taken from behind by an angry vocoder. Sure, it's summery, but Fernando Garibay's production isn't so much a hot mess as a trip to burning pits of hell, all stuttery bridges and choppy middle 8s as if mashing more songs into one than even Xenomania could manage. Lyrically this makes Get Sexy seem like the new Like A Prayer; "I'm just a pretty little thing", Heidi quivers, all credibility now just a distant memory.

Bung on Freak Like Me and forget that this song ever even got recorded - Keisha probably has already.
