Sugababes

[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 witchy 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

I feel the complete opposite opinion!? To me Heidi was an innocent just enjoying herself at a nightclub and then attacked and bitten and turned into a vampire against her will!

Oh totally! But the other two were “giving her the evils”

it was a genius video either way!

Oh, I can tell me and you are the same generation, or close, I had totally forgot about “are you giving me evils?”

I’m so glad you got the reference !

To keep it on topic, I LOVE Mutya, she has always been my favourite, her VOICE, her style, she’s such a babe.

 

[HockyRorror]

Tbh my whole preteen and teenage years were led by girl bands from The Spice Girls, to All Saints, to Sugababes and of course TLC and Destiny’s Child. Those were the days

@Sideboard Bob “song 4 Mutya” will forever be a bleeping tune as far as I’m concerned

Omg yes. To be honest, music is my life, so I loved a LOT of genres back then, but I loved the same bands. We were so spoiled. I’ll add Eternal too. And the US bands, En Vogue, Jade.
TLC were everything.

ETA I really loved Shampoo as a preteen

Ooh Eternal, yes, and En Vogue, did you ever hear Brownstone? They had some bangers but were lesser known



Also thought you might appreciate this, let me know

I LOVE that song, so much. The harmonies. “oh I, oh I” just beautiful.

Oh and this from SWV! (fun fact. The guy saying “S W double V” is Pharrell!)




Omg that parody is SPOT ON! I was all over that sound!

It reminds me of a Twitter thread that was something like, “10 year old me listening to a female r&b singer over a Darkchild beat with the most scandalous lyrics like this ”

Bahahahahahhaa!!!! like me with Jerry Springer, Jenny Jones, Ricki Lake and Maury, I used to purposely skive off school to watch those when I could , was introduced to topics I was not supposed to be WAY earlier than I should have been

Didn’t recognise the song by the title but as soon as it played recognised it and also instantly recognised pharell’s involvement !

Omg yes! Me and my sister LOVED these shows! we’d just watch like Way too young ! Springer was the best, it was so wild, then he’d end it ith such calm, peaceful words!

“Springers final thoughts” as if he didn’t just have the contestants (won’t call them guests) beating the tit out of each other

feel guilty but I still keep up with this these 2 recentish ones I thought were hilarious



(boo, the other one has been removed by YouTube)

 

[JakeM]

I forgot that this thread existed I went to their show in Newcastle last November. They were incredible!

Right! “Take care of yourselves, and each other”…. Beautiful words, but if everyone did that, he wouldn’t have a show!

omg I remember this one! As soon as he said “my PARTY friend“ it all came flooding back


To try and bring it back on topic Does anyone know any good girl bands around now?

Not a girl band, but if anyone likes the Sugababes, please check out Cleo Sol. I have been trying to tell everyone about her, she is unreal.

They were brilliant. The setlist was great, too (although I was devastated that they didn’t sing Run For Cover )

Beautiful voice but I don’t like the laid back song as of yet.

I used to have the VHS (yes ,VHS, as DVDS didnt exist yet lmao) of Jerry Springer Uncut that I ordered off a very early version of eBay online

this one was one of them

 

[Heyholetsgo]

I loved Overload and still love their greatest hits, they have some amazing songs! I even liked the Amelle line up too "Red Dress" and "Follow me Home". By the time Jade joined I think I gave up

Don't know any girl bands now but also loved Blaque Ivory and 702!

 

[HockyRorror]

Forgot to add to an earlier post @Sideboard Bob yes I loved shampoo too, both their albums were brilliant and ahead of their time but I also just loved “Uh Oh, Were in trouble” I remeber it was the theme song used for the power rangers movie who I were also obsessed with as a kid!

Did they do Baby Bring it all to Me? Loved that song

I appreciate you at least listening, lot of people just skip past YouTube links. All of her music is like that, so if you ever want to feel like you’re floating on a cloud, Cleo is your girl.

And on that note, I can’t play that Spinger clip just now so I will watch it in an afternoon exacting cereal as it should be

@heyhoherewego11 Sugababes line ups is one of the most controversial topics ever, i love it. Originals for me, but I love version 2 as well. As long as Mutya’s there too

I had a feeling you’d like them too! They were so ahead of their time yes! So many cool pop-girls now say they’re an influence!
