Thought we could use this thread for Siobhan and Mutya to talk about them.

 

Anyway on Mutya

 

Didn't wanna make loads of different posts on her latest leaked songs so would be best to just give her a thread

 

Has anyone heard any of these yet

I heard that Stung Out was meant to be a Sugababes-solo song sung by Mutya, but now it's just Mutya's song?

 

That's fair enough because she probably wrote it if it was just her singing it

 

Andher new single is to be called Real Girl?

Yeh i have a remix of it :) its ok nothin great though

Yeh thats the one :D

 

I dont think the single versions around yet, hopefully it will be better

Finally I got it to release

On Siobhan, i got Ghosts & Styfling today

 

Need to listen to Styfling a bit more yet but Ghosts seems alright, her music is really different to everything out at the minute has anyone else heard much of her

I've heard Strung Out, and apparently it was an ex-Sugababes song bt written by Mutya so she got to keep it?

 

It's not bad

I heard that she tweaked the lyrics of this one too, so yeh, that could be true. ^
Mutya looks really different on your sig :o

I saw Siobhan's new vid on ChartHits before :)

DJ date for ex-Sugababes star

Gary Ryan

 

 

LAST year, the Sugababes released their long-overdue career retrospective Greatest Hits. For original 'Babe' Siobhan Donaghy, who left the band in 2001 citing bitchiness and bullying as the causes, it held no significance whatsoever.

 

"They tried to take my vocals off the album," she laughs. "They re-recorded all the songs, but in the end they went with the originals. But I did think it was quite funny."

 

It's a revisionist move that conjures up an image of surviving member Keisha Buchanan proclaiming `Who's Trotsky?'

 

"I wish they'd succeeded," smiles the 22-year-old from her home in London. "I love a song like Overload, but I was never in that band. I felt like someone else was taking over my life. It was inevitable that I would have left that band."

 

With her self-esteem shattered like a cheap window pane, she pulled herself up by her bra straps and released a well-received solo album, Revolution In Me, in 2003. And now she's back, back and, indeed, thrice BACK with a new single, the lush Kate Bush-tinged Ghosts and a forthcoming album. It seems as though Siobhan is finally happy with her lot.

 

"My confidence was shattered when I left the Sugababes," she says. "And I thought when I released Revolution In Me that I was back on form, but it was more like fighting talk. I was more angry than anything."

 

After being dropped from her record company, she hooked up with producer Cameron McVey and went to the north of France to work on a new record, inspired by the Cocteau Twins, Shakespears Sister and Brian Eno.

 

Isolated

 

"It was so isolated," she remembers. "I loved the fact we were never influenced by anyone; there was no TV, no radio. We didn't listen to anything made in the last 10 years."

 

Speaking of isolation, Siobhan reveals how it was splitting up with her boyfriend that proved the stiletto up the backside she needed to get back.

 

"Most people find losing their first love hard, and I reacted in a bad way - or at least my parents think I did," she says. "But now I think he couldn't have done anything better for me. I was in a rut, and I followed him around like a puppy. If we hadn't parted, I wouldn't have made another record, let alone practically live in France for a year."

 

Recently, Siobhan has worked with ex-Bananarama member, Siobhan Fahey. There are similarities beyond their names: both fled well-known girl groups for emotional reasons. "She [siobhan Fahey] said she'd been watching me for a while, She'd noticed the similarities. It was fate."

 

Aside from launching herself back into the world of pop, she's also ruffled feathercuts in clubs such as Hoxton's Boombox and gay alternative night, Popstarz. Tonight she's manning the decks at Club Clique, allowing you the chance to see the girl once dubbed 'too nice' to be in the girl band that don't always come across as being sweet.
