August 17, 200816 yr ok so it can be argued that it isn't a cover is a sample, extended borrowing, interpolation or whatever but as the girls mention in interview the chorus is the same which can't be said about some other songs they sample but i think it's cool they wrote new verses to mod it up a bit and put their own stamp on it. Think it'll grow on me (and others)
August 17, 200816 yr The difference between the samples from Freak Like Me and Girls is that FLM sampled a decent song....
August 17, 200816 yr Also, the sample(s) used for Freak Like Me had never been heard by the majority of their fanbase - so to them (me included) it was essentially a new song. (I've obviously heard the originals now :D ) The sample for Girls has been grating of the majority of people for months now. Maybe had they released it 6 months earlier it would be more popular.

August 18, 200816 yr It´s an obvious cash in... to use a well known sample, and release the album rushed for the Christmas market. They should take their time and release in the middle of next year, instead of rushing it just for cash in.
August 21, 200816 yr Author The official website wants people aged 18 and over , To be an extra in the video and they need to dance in an urban style so i don't know what to expect from the video. www.sugababes.com

Exactly, the people referring back to freak like me being a sample too are annoying me coz the song originally got to something like about 33 in the UK charts and it was ages ago. It was hardly a big well known hit was it. Its an awful song in my opinion, verses and start is ok but the chorus is just awful for something from the babes.
August 21, 200816 yr The official website wants people aged 18 and over , To be an extra in the video and they need to dance in an urban style so i don't know what to expect from the video. www.sugababes.com I really can't see urban dancing fitting this song - unless they've reworked it
August 21, 200816 yr The video sounds tacky if you ask me Which is a shame since only the video could save it.
August 21, 200816 yr I like it, but my ears were tired of it by the end. The repetition of the chorus is too much when it's so brash and loud!
August 21, 200816 yr i first lisnted and knew id like it and iv started to and i will more, im a huge suga fan and i think its great a new sound :D aslong as the follow on singles are good :D
August 22, 200816 yr Make it smaller for christ sakes. give him peace! :P How many of us get a picture with one of our favourite stars i'd want to show it off too, and its a nice picture. Amelle's nails are fine!
August 22, 200816 yr Yeh but come on, i could see it if it was ten times smaller. Its just making like 3 posts per page. I hadnt noticed the nails but pink tips is an unusual choice.
