Sugababes

Sugababes

The album bursts into life with Girls. The latest single sets Sugababes agenda with the line 'All independent women know it takes a lot to run the show. I am the fire and the coal, I am a woman in control.'

Girls set the pace for this sing-a-long album, trust us you'll soon know the words and be tapping your toes to the beat.

You On A Good Day is another stand out song, with lines like, 'You're messed up from you're chromosomes to your enzymes' it shouldn't be good but it really is.

There is a slight lack in up-tempo tracks but the slower songs are still good. They are not exactly ballads, somewhere between the two extremes.

Side Chick, for example is a great example, with tippy, tappy pianos blended with edgy lyrics.

Sugababes slow down the pace on the acoustic version of their hit single, About You Now. It becomes a beautiful ballad showcasing the girls versatility.

The album finishes with one of the best songs, She's Like A Star with Taio Cruz. Although the girls do not really feature for the first half of the song when they do come in the two work well together. There is a real RnB vibe to the track and it's bound to be a future trust.

If the Sugababes can still produce great songs six albums in, we look forward to their next six.
