All the titles are unusual and the rapping from Nadine and farm animal sounds sound interesting haha.

 

 

I'm soo excited for this album!

Wow a collaboration with the Pet Shop Boys :o This is a big deal, should be amazing!

 

I love when we get reviews before an album is released, it makes it even more exciting! Can't wait!

In the words of Will Young, I think I better Leave Right Now :lol:

 

I want as much of a surprise as possible, I managed to dodge the tracklist :lol:

 

But PSB :o :wub: wow!

Miss You Bow Wow? This WILL be interesting!

 

Sort of excited to see what they bring actually. Not a fan of abbreviations like Turn 2 Stone though, tbh.

 

No i'm not keen on those either. Quite a lot of acts do it these days though dont they.

 

 

This sounds like their most experimental CD yet. Thankfully it has more ballads on it :cheer:

They needed a few ballads coz there wasnt really one on tangled up.

Yeah, i was quite dissapointed last time that there were no ballads.

Take away Dido from the charting and sales equasion, her album has been postponed until 17th Nov. :cheer:

P!nk, Anastacia, Snow Patrol, and Razorlight, basically, and maybe Bloc Party, but they'll probably get lost in the crowd :kink:

 

Not sure if SP will do that well, just because Chasing Cars won't disappear :lol:

Jennifer Lopez will bomb and as will Anastacia.

yeah^ it's a shame though!

 

but pink has a shot at the number 1 for two weeks!

well let's hope it for the girls

CHERYL COLE sings a heartfelt song about a cheating partner on the latest GIRLS ALOUD album and pleads “Just be faithful to me”. I’ve had the exclusive first listen to new album Out Of Control and I can report it is yet more pop perfection from the lovely ladies. And on the track about cheating, called Love Is Pain, Cheryl — whose husband ASHLEY did the dirty on her — ends the song with a heartbreaking solo.

 

The girls, pictured exclusively on the album artwork, sing: “What you are, what you say, it don’t matter to me. What you know, what you don’t, it don’t matter to me, just be faithful to me.” Then in an emotive solo to end, Cheryl sings: “Love is pain, you’re insane, feel like I could wipe you.” It is a punchy number and will make uncomfortable listening for Chelsea ace Ashley.

 

The girls have continued their long-running partnership with pop writer and production supremo BRIAN HIGGINS for the album.The rest of the collection has a mixture of ballads and the relentlessly upbeat, catchy hits we have come to expect.

 

And there are a few surprises thrown in as well.

 

The album ends with drum’n’ bass track Live In The Country about moving to the countryside — complete with farm animal sound effects. The song is clearly heavily influenced by SARAH HARDING, who is a big drum’n’bass fan and has spoken repeatedly about her desire to get away from life in London.

 

There are a couple of Eighties-inspired tracks and one in particular stands out. The Loving Kind is the result of a collaboration with the PET SHOP BOYS. The team-up came about when NEIL TENNANT was recording in the studio next door. He popped in to say how much he loved the girls and walked out agreeing to work with them.

 

Miss You Bow Wow and Rolling Back The Rivers are also contenders to be released as singles. Other album highlights include Revolution In The Head, an infectious dance track which sees NADINE COYLE making her rapping debut.

 

Drum’n’bass, rapping and animal noises weren’t words I was expecting to be writing in association with the new Girls Aloud CD. But with these girls’ incredible success, it is all Aloud.

 

is there going to be just one edition of the album this year?

MusicMaster, that was posted by me on page 3 earlier in the week.

P!nk, Anastacia, Snow Patrol, and Razorlight, basically, and maybe Bloc Party, but they'll probably get lost in the crowd :kink:

 

Not sure if SP will do that well, just because Chasing Cars won't disappear :lol:

 

Snow Patrol - Great singles or not, have always been big album sellers ;)

 

The Biggest threats are, P!nk, Snow Patrol & Razorlight. Bloc Party will get about 6 or 7

 

I can actually see it being...

 

01 - Snow Patrol

02 - P!nk

03 - Razorlight

04 - Girls Aloud

05 - Oasis???

06 - Bloc Party

Yeah, i think John's got it right. Anastacia isnt really competition at all when you look at how poor I Can Feel You is doing.

j-lo's gh is not out till feb now :)

 

tough competition for GA

WOW, it keeps getting better. Now J-Lo is no threat along with Dido. I hope the albums released the previous week (like Pink) fall, even though i love them.

J Lo wouldn't have been too much competition in the UK, her albums have never really sold too well.

But GH's can go either way for some artists, granted - some can flop, but some can be the artists biggest sellers! Just look at Beverley Knight, no one knew much about her but her Greatest Hits has reached platinum status now and is her biggest release so far (how un-just - i know).

 

Either way, the less competiton on release weeks means less competition for publicity. Paul O'Grady might have a second spot for them now J-Lo and Dido arent in town! (im presuming they will be on the week of 'The Promise' release).
