Have a lot of votes to count!! Just finished work so let me have some scran and orient myself and we can start at like 9:30 UK time with the results

SWR3Sugababes: ShookSugababes: Shook Very first performance came on German radio station SWR3!!! And it’s acoustic

A thread to collect some of their random promo spots. Today they were on SWR3, a public radio station in southern Germany (it’s like doing BBC Radio Scotland) and they did a couple of songs Including a truly stunning performance of Hole In The Head https://www.swr3.de/musik/poplexikon/unplugged/sugababes-hole-in-the-head-102.html

Great result. They have some big fans at R2

BBC Radio 2 record of the week

Budget 30€ But that’s the third set of visuals from this era. They’re independent so that’s coming out their own pocket, so I’m just happy to get something

Im hopeful she will cover some of the dark years after flatline as well. And also what she’s done along side the band like non-music stuff and her random dance collabs

Video dropping in a few hours time!

Yeah after my first play Round Round came to mind. It’s not that it’s sonically similar but structurally. It has proper classic Xenomania vibes. There are at least 4 or 5 different melodies in there all connected together perfectly - just like Round Round did 24 (!) years ago

The top two from each heat are already in the final. There is now a „second chance round“ where the songs that finished 3rd to 5th get a second chance to make it to the final. They will be all together in a qualifier round where 4 of the 12 will make it to the final so that we have a 12 song final

Im just glad there was part of the song that wasn’t teased already. Great to finally get a third verse in this new era

Omg im so sorry 🫣🫣

Yeah I’ve got it on Apple Music as well now, my account is a UK one so should be out in the UK too It’s giving me a little more Round Round than PTB tbh because of how none of the three verses sound sonically alike. It’s very Xenomania coded
