Posted August 28, 201113 yr Just had the go ahead from Amelle that I'm allowed to talk about the track. Jade told me on Friday it's called "Hard" and is produced by the invisible men. She described it as "Better than Freedom" and a "Floorfiller". Edited August 29, 201113 yr by Backdown
August 28, 201113 yr Hmmm. Interesting title. If they mean floorfiller in a Sweet 7 kinda way I'll wait until it hits 59p on iTunes.
August 28, 201113 yr I laughed when I saw the title, I am that mature (22 years old Martyn, time to grow up!) However I hope the chorus goes something like this I'll make it hard... I'll make it hard for you! I'll make it hard for you so be on your guard! Not really but I am basing this on the hilarity of Sweet 7
August 28, 201113 yr Interesting! If it's better than Freedom, it'll be one of the best songs of the year!
August 28, 201113 yr Not a very exciting title, but if they believe it's better than 'Freedom' then it must be good!
August 28, 201113 yr 'Better than Freedom' Well that's not too difficult.... Joke, I do like Freedom before the random loons attack me and then berate the mods for biased... But yeah, excited to hear, it better be an ACTUAL club banger a la All Fired Up and not something like Collide.
August 28, 201113 yr For some reason I hoped for a song title with more than one word. But Hard is an interesting title, if it's as good as Rihanna's song then it's going to be fantastic. Unfortunately I can't see the lyrics of this song being any better than Freedom's. It's probably going to be along the lines of 'we're so hard/we're going so hard [in the club]'. Thank you for sharing this with us. Edited August 28, 201113 yr by Atonement
August 28, 201113 yr Thanks 4 sharing... But late 2011 is literally impossible... There's just 13 weeks between Freedom's release and the last week of the year... I don't expect Freedom to stay more than that on chart, tbh... But, in orden to release Hard in late 2011, they'll have to make a video, send it to radios, etc, in Freedom's 3r or 4th chart week... And that would be a suicide. It will obviously be released in 2012.

September 27, 201113 yr This is what is co-written on Daily Star by the Sugababes WE’RE SOFT ON HARD… 27th September 2011 By Kim Dawson with James Cabooter - Edited by The Sugababes IF we get our way, the second single from the new album will be Hard. You might think it’s a singalong but when you start listening to the lyrics you think: “Hang on a minute, it’s a cool concept.” It’s called Hard because its about a girl who’s been hurt in a relationship, then got into a new one and will only give so much. It’s saying: “If you’re not able to give me 100% I’ll go back to being hard, being the ice queen, keeping you at arm’s length.” Most girls have had that. WE love Katy B. She kind of sounds like early Sugababes and there’s a good style about her. Loick Essien, who’s on Sony with us, is also wicked. I actually quite like the concept, as it correlates a lot with my former drama in my personal life. :lol: I'm now curious about the lyrics and the song itself.
September 27, 201113 yr But will this still be the second single...or has it been sort of promoted to lead single now do we think?

Same here; maybe not so much 'drama' than 'what I actually think/feel'. The idea of the song is good. Hopefully the actual song will deliver!
September 27, 201113 yr Fingers crossed they don't f*** it up like Freedom! I mean the free download release was pointless! Hard sounds VERY promising, not just the one dimensional club banger we initally expected!
September 27, 201113 yr I don't think it does matter much, as basically 'Hard' is going to open the album (if they don't delay it yet again). Edit: <<== That was for Cremey! But they need to get EVERYTHING right and use ALL the resources they have. And even with that, they will still probably flop. It is the death situation for them, they are in agony. I wish them all of the luck. I don't want the Sugababes chapter I to end with 'Freedom' being downgraded to a free single and with the next single / album flopping or even cancelling.

September 28, 201113 yr Even if this song is amazing, its still almost certain that radio wont support them...how exactly can they get radio support back? because without that they're pretty much screwed. Since i doubt X Factor will be calling on them anytime soon.
September 28, 201113 yr Oh it certainly sounds better than the 'We're going hard in the club' song I was thinking it was going to be!
