Posted May 14, 200619 yr http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/BUN105CD.JPG 2006 has been one hell of a year for The Ordinary Boys already, starting with a sold out London Astoria NME show and then the sold out March tour, described by NME as "proper insanity", which ended in a packed Brixton Astoria where Suggs joined the band for the version of 'My Girl' whilst Will Self watched from the stalls. Whilst singer Preston is now an old hand at getting stopped in the street by complete strangers for autographs following his stint on Celebrity Big Brother. The Ordinary Boys now release a new single, 'nine2five', a collaboration with good friend Lady Sovereign which came about when the two parties swapped songs to see what they could do with each others' music. The results were so good that both Sovereign's 'Girls Will Be Girls' remix of the Boys' number two hit single and current playground and nightclub anthem 'Boys Will Be Boys' and now the Boys' remix of Sovereign's 2005 Top 30 single '9 to 5' have both found their way to the wider public ear. The result is 2006's 'nine2five'. Track Listing: CD 1 1. Nine2Five 2. My Girl [Live At Brixton Academy] Old Video [flash=450,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-VD91eEDz0.swf New Video [flash=450,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xJUuN0rT5U.swf There is also a Limited 7" Which contains a special live version of "On An Island" which will have gatefold sleeve that'll house the other 7" which has the same tracklisting as the CD. ;) They'll also be performing at Radio 1's One Big Weekend tommorow. :D

May 14, 200619 yr Author why is this being released now when I remember it being on tv channels last July It was originally a b-side to Lady Sovereign's version on her own ;) But now it's getting released as a proper single :D
May 14, 200619 yr Author What happened to 'On An Island'? I suppose they just decided against releasing that one :unsure: Shame really :(
May 15, 200619 yr Worst song in a long while. It only makes Prestom look more like a chav, and I didn't actually think it was possible!
May 15, 200619 yr Worst song in a long while. It only makes Prestom look more like a chav, and I didn't actually think it was possible! Do u know what a chav is? :huh: Preston is a middle class lad from brighton, who went to uni, how is he a chav? Cos he doesnt dress like a member of the libertines or DPT, doesnt make him a chav :rolleyes:

Cos he doesnt dress like a member of the libertines or DPT, doesnt make him a chav :rolleyes: Yes. And he is one, or atleast turning into one. You only have to look at who he goes out with. Biggest. Chav. Ever :puke2: Boys Will Be Boys turned into a chav anthem whilst BB was on and he obviously recognizes that as he's rereleasing his duet with another chav.
May 15, 200619 yr What happened to 'On An Island'? maybe thats owned by warners? i hear they are now going through polydor
May 16, 200619 yr It was originally a b-side to Lady Sovereign's version on her own ;) But now it's getting released as a proper single :D oh right thanks for clearing that up :D I think its great, and the video is much better this time. :wub: lady Sov's version tho :lol:
June 8, 200619 yr Author Chav anthem. On An Island would have been soo much better. Agreed on OAI being better (and the best on Brassbound) but not on it being a chav anthem :huh:
June 8, 200619 yr Author I know a few people that appeared in the video :banana: I do too :D btw the newer one doesn't seem to be on YouTube so that's why it has the old version ;) EDIT: Found it and it's been added to the first post :D
June 8, 200619 yr Right. Let's clear a few thing up shall we kiddies... 1/ The actual released format information goes as thus: The Ordinary Boys VS Lady Sovereign CD Single – 2 Track Catalogue number: BUN105CD Barcode: 0602498585610 Tracks – Nine2Five & My Girl featuring Suggs (Live) The Ordinary Boys VS Lady Sovereign 7†Single (Gatefold) Catalogue number: BUN1057X Barcode: 0602498585634 Tracks – Nine2Five & On An Island (Live) The Ordinary Boys VS Lady Sovereign 7†Single (Standard) Catalogue number: BUN1057 Barcode: 0602498585641 Tracks - Nine2Five & 9 to 5 (The Ordinary Boys Remix) 2/ I'm gonna get on my moral high horse now and say Preston can be whatever the c**p he wants to be, who's who to jusge anyone? What's wrong with chav's anyway? Some are alright as it happens - working class heroes, someone said once. 3/ Preston never went to university for the whole time. I believe he pulled out. Doesn't say much then does it? 4/ OAI is a far more superior song, technically but do you think it would sell after Preston's BB experience? No. Get with it. They released NINE2FIVE cos it's going to appeal to the BB crowd and the girlies that love Preston. Who doesn't want loads money? 5/ I appear in the video. That is all.
