For a bit of nostalgia on today, Girls Aloud's 15th birthday, I want to see your ultimate Girls Aloud album. You can use any tracks they released; singles, album tracks, b-sides, remixes, live performances etc., the only rule is that you can only have 15 tracks.

5. "Something New"

6. "The Show"

7. "Biology"

8. "Girl Overboard"

9. "Something Kinda Ooooh"

10. "Sound of the Underground"

11. "Call the Shots"

12. "Untouchable"

13. "On the Metro"

14. "Hanging on the Telephone"

15. "Not Tonight Santa"

 

Context for album tracks: I first heard "Waiting" live at the 'Out of Control' Tour in 2009 and I was confused as it wasn't on the album or their first greatest hits so it wasn't until I finally bought 'Chemistry' that I heard the studio version and fell in love with it and the parent album. The Christmas edition is great fun and was unfortunately overlooked at the time for a non-Christmas cover single ("See the Day" :puke: ), although "Not Tonight Santa" has appeared on previous edition of 'Now! Christmas' so at least the masses may have heard that song in passing - the best song on that disc of the album.

 

"Girl Overboard" is obviously their best ever album track and if they'd gone for a fourth single from 'Tangled Up', I'm certain that would have been it. "On the Metro" is a great song from 'Ten' that sounds classic Girls Aloud and was a nice addition to their final greatest hits. I wanted to include only one cover and that is "Hanging on the Telephone", taken from disc 2 of their first greatest hits. I didn't realise it was a cover when I first heard it (it was made famous by Blondie but originally by The Nerves apparently) and I loved it from first listen, even with the obvious demo feel to it.
