I think it will defo be top 10 and can see it staying around for a while!

Hopefully the album benefits a lot from it too!

It will easily become Top 10, and I would be surprised if it made Top 5...
It might just scrape into the top 10 but i doubt it will get top 5.

From their myspace:

 

Hot on the heels of their smash hit 'Girls' and the release of their new album 'Catfights and Spotlights' comes the unbelievably infectious new single 'No Can Do' on Dec 22nd. It's an instant winner with a funky Motown bounce that'll have you hooked on the first listen. The girls will be shooting the new video next week.

The song could do quite well since it's sampling Jacksons 5 "I want you back" melody in the chorus, people should have it in the head all day if they hear it on the radio !
I agree it's catchy, but there's no sample...

 

Can't your hear it ?

 

 

It sounds rather OBVIOUS to me, but well...

Rah okay, call it whatever you want, you all are just so annoying, even when it comes to discuss their music, you're all on the defensive.

I do hear similarities in the melody between those 2 songs, so do my friends (who doesn't really know the babes so they're not biased whatsoever), but well I guess it's just me and my friends who are nutters.

Stay in your little Sugababes fans only world, discussing their poor chartings, and that's it, you are happy with that apparently.

:mellow:

 

There's no OFFICIAL sample. Yes they sound alike, many songs do. But an actual melody has to be idential for it to be a simple, and the original writers of that have to be credited.

 

In the Catfights booklet, nobody is credited who created that Jackson 5 song. There is no sample, just a similarity, and no defensiveness, just fact.

oh jesus wept.

 

i'm not even gonna dignify that post with a response :rolleyes:

that's so weird! i was just about to post that a friend of mine said this song really reminds him of the Jackson 5 then read your posts! Not a bad sound to tap into though, people love that song so could work out well

you're not a nutter!, I don't think people were meaning to be defensive. Think as earlier post says though, either it sampled it or didn't, its a question of fact rather than interpretation and legally this would have to be (arranged and) mentioned in the album sleeve, and it isn't. My friend thought the same as yours though, so you totally have a point. I say Post away and don't let others bug you too much, it all keeps the forum popular (as long as you're not rude)

me too and we weren't being defensive- we were jjust telling you the truth!

Everyone says it sounds LIKE jackson 5, but it has no sample.
