Sugababes

[AllSeeingEye123]

From what I remember about their previous shows they don’t do any songs past 2005 (excluding Flatline). I’ve always preferred AJH over MKS but they were all great. Would love if they all did one big reunion but the chances of that happening are very low.

Every version did bangers. The record company could have kept them going forever in the style of a franchise and just replacing people as the years pass like a Football team Overload, Hole In The Head, Red Dress, Push The Button, About You Now etc the back catalogue is great.

I do think Heidi played a really key role in the band but does anyone remember their Glastonbury performance of Stronger where she was making a horrific noise like an air raid siren but thought she was serving vocals? Iconic.

Wasn't Martyn one of the victims of the Manchester bombings. RIP

He was. His Audrey Roberts noise videos are my favourite. May he RIP

 

[Ugholhere]

Kinda iconic to have a spice girl be your opening act

 

[WSB]

I miss the fashion!

So did their stylists most of the time...

Favourite songs:

Beware
Red Dress
We Could Have It All

 

[Not Your Kind of Person]

Mutya was strikingly beautiful when she was young; such a shame she has had bad surgery.

I remember thinking how stunning she was in the Overload video.

 

[Trolleydollycoffeelover]

That's my favourite by them too. Written by Kathy Dennis, who those past a certain age will recall as a pop star in her own right.

I love her songs now I’m older! call me cynical but I swear I hear her voice on the songs she wrote like Toxic and Sweet Dreams my LAX giving Britney and Rachel a helping hand

In case anyone hasn't seen

 

[Restless Native]

A mediocre footballer and mediocre man, by the sound of it

Says they were together from 2011 to 2018. Hopefully the scumbag will go to jail.

Ffs what a scumbag

 

[Miss.Chanandler.Bong]

I love everything about her look and style in the beginning part of the Stronger video

Run for cover
Same old story
Too lost in you
About a girl

i enjoyed sugababes till mutya left. keisha to me had the most ANNOYING singing voice, was like nails on a board, so when mutya left the music did nothing for me.

I loved siobhan and mutta’s solo stuff.

 

[Amyx1518]

Loved loved loved Amelle with Chipmunk song, I will never leave you. Played it the other day. Absolute tune.

Urgh my ex had that as his music video on bebo haha

 

[Hello Kitty]

I actually want to download 'the singles collection' now. So many good songs on there

 

[JakeM]

Out of curiosity, what is everyone’s favourite Sugababes song/songs? All Line-ups count.

mine would have to be:


Red Dress
Round Round
Denial
Hole In The Head
Freak Like Me
In The Middle

 

[Sideboard Bob]

They did!

Hasnt Sugababes had a version 1, 2, 3, 4 and then a restart? Apart from Destiny’s Child I can’t remember so many changes!

Dear Lord we had a 90s reunion here tonight, didnt we lol? I’m bowing out now, going to sleep. Thanks guys, really appreciated that reminiscing, nice one xx

~~~
thank you for the reminiscing too, I love chatting to people with equally great tastes in music! X

 

[Restless Native]

I thought the Sugarbabes had some good tunes.

I couldn't bear the personnel. Apart from Heidi, they were all dripping poison out of their pores.

I kinda liked all the drama that surrounded them at the time though:lol:

 

[Miss.Chanandler.Bong]

One of my favourite Martyn videos

 

[Sideboard Bob]

I was a teenager when Freak Like Me came out and loved the video, loved the original version too by Asian, but also loved Sugababes before their version was released especially Run for Cover and Overload but that new video drop when Heidi was introduced was stellar. I used to dance to to the video to Mutya’s part and pretend her part was mine. I’m a guy

I loooved the Adina Howard version!
And yes, when the video dropped it was such a moment! 70% of the video was introducing Heidi in such a bitchy way! I was a teen then too

I don’t think people know what a big deal it was, the Sugabababes were pretty much written off at that point, and then they just brought out this song that made everyone (even people who don’t like pop music) go


Run For Cover though, the “makes me want to scream“ part

 

[HockyRorror]

Loved Sugababes versions 1 and 2. Run for Cover was a belter. In fact, they had a serious run of releasing really good singles from their albums. They’re number 2 in the list of girlbands with the most UK number one hits, only behind the Spice Girls.
