Posted May 3, 20205 yr It's happening again! We need to decide on an entry to represent Girls Aloud in the first "free choice" round of AF Idol. I was thinking something like Can't Speak French - generally considered midtable in their singles and leaving some big guns until later :thinking:
May 3, 20205 yr I think if you go for a middling GA hit, you'll be safe tbh. I' probably throw in 'Promise This' by Cherly too or something. Or even 'Beat Of My Drum' by Nicola?
May 3, 20205 yr Can't Speak French makes sense, The Show and The Loving Kind would get through and probably not be much use for later rounds either. As a risk, I'd actually go Nicola's Beat of My Drum! I think it'd get through. But the three above would be safer.
May 3, 20205 yr I think you should save the Girls Aloud hits for future rounds and use some of the solo singles now, depending on what your thoughts are for the themes in future rounds.
May 3, 20205 yr My thought was to go with Call My Name or Fight For This Love as a big solo song in Round 1, and not "waste" a Girls Aloud single at this early stage. For future rounds I don't think we'd need to use Cheryl singles again, because there'd be plenty of Girls Aloud to go with. What do you all think? If we were to go with Girls Aloud I'd suggest The Show or The Loving Kind (echoing Andrew!), they're generally well liked but they're not their very biggest.
May 3, 20205 yr On a personal level FFTL for me, howeverrrrr, CMN is extremely popular and should be a very safe qualifier, no? (Obviously if you're sure you wont necessarily need it later!) I think I'd vote for it (at least I'd like to coz its amaze)
May 3, 20205 yr Call My Name is what this site seem to think is Cheryls best solo track so that would be very good for round 1! Saying that there’s so much potential to use for GA songs as long it’s not Beautiful Cause You Love Me or one of their covers.
May 4, 20205 yr http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=233734 Voting thread is above! You have to choose your 13 favourite songs out of 26. Show your support for Girls Aloud with Cheryl - Call My Name if it's in your Top 13! :D :cheer:
May 4, 20205 yr I feel the wrong song was selected. A Girls Aloud single would have been a better choice.
May 7, 20205 yr Author We've got the following choices: Sound of the Underground The Show Long Hot Summer Sexy! No No No... The Promise Fight for This Love Promise This Crazy Stupid Love One Day I'll Fly Away Insatiable Beat of My Drum Sexy! is my preferred choice right now! SOTU and The Promise should absolutely be saved for later use.
May 7, 20205 yr You can absolutely count on my vote if you go for Sexy! No No No... :cheeseblock: :wub:
May 7, 20205 yr I wouldn't be against going for another solo song as the group singles will be the strongest, I think Crazy Stupid Love, Fight For This Love and even Beat of My Drum would get through! Of the GA singles Long Hot Summer might just about scrape though but it'd really struggle, The Show is a risk so I'd go sexy yeah *.*
May 7, 20205 yr The Promise should absolutely be saved for later use. Or never, please You can absolutely count on my vote if you go for Sexy! No No No... :cheeseblock: :wub: Mine too :heart:
May 8, 20205 yr If you don't have any plans to use Sexy in the future rounds, then go with that! Safest choices: Sound of the Underground Sexy! No No No... The Promise Fight for This Love High probability to survive a single elimination if you wanted to save big guns: The Show Promise This A riskier choice that has more chance of paying off than it doesn't: Long Hot Summer Crazy Stupid Love Beat of My Drum Nah: Insatiable GIVE KYMBERLEY HER CHANCE TO SHINEEEEE!!!!!: :cheer: One Day I'll Fly Away
