Their 13th Top 10 hit is out
now and has gone straight into the Top 5 on downloads alone. The
single debut at #3 in the physical chart and is set to climb! Either
that or the girls are most likely to be at #3 for yet another week!
Don't forget the song is also available on the girls Greatest Hits
album available in stores NOW! Below is an
exclusive review of the single from

In years to come when people think of Girls Aloud, I
hope this will be one of the first of their songs that enters the
head. An incredibly powerful Eurodance affair, this takes all the
best bits of every brilliant

production from the early to mid 90's. Then, just when you think you
know where it's all heading, the Girls make it reproduce with the
bassline of TV
Rock's "Flaunt
It", before turning it into the dance anthem of the century.
Obviously
Xenomania have
gotten it ridiculously on the mark with this track, which is an
absolute club stomper. "Something Kinda Ooh" could very well be the
song that puts the Aloud on the map - if they still want to be on
said map - in countries like Japan, other areas of Europe and, of
course, right here in Australia. Can you just imagine this song
being played at 2am at your favourite Saturday nightspot? Because I
certainly can.
This is the first
song to come along all year that has given me the same feeling I got
when I first heard "Biology" in 2005. Killer lyrics ("Something
Kinda Ooh/Jumpin' on my tutu" is only the beginning), a chorus which
is more infectious than Herpes, a talky-bit which could very well be Sarah
Harding's
most defining moment in all of recorded sound, and of course the
somewhat inclusion of that brilliant "urrrrr-eh urrrr-eh urrrrr-eh
urrrr" thing from their cover of "Jump". Except the use of it in
this song is about 600 times magnified and, therefore, makes it much
better. Unlike pretty much all of their singles since "Long Hot
Summer", this is instantly good. At very first listen you're quite
well aware of its absolute god-like presence.
Single of the year? You bet your arse it is. |
