Sugababes - "Shook" + 9th Album

[OhJimmy87]

Two words: Open Book.

This. Yes Please.

Open Book >>>>> When The Rain Comes

I’m more interested in hearing what the Sugababes will sound like in 2024 than 10 year old songs. I’m sure what they are working on will be so much better than the stuff that didn’t make “The Lost Tapes”.

 

[V3RYP05H]

Those old songs can be b-sides or used on soundtracks/compilations. It’s time for new Sugababes music.

 

[Gauke]

Does anyone have a comprehensive list of the MKS leaks stating which songs are considered to be (almost) finished, which ones are work in progress?

 

[jawow_]

I think The Lost Tapes is their best album.

The Lost Tapes / Red Flag really are the comeback albums our faves in their peak era wish they could deliver.

 

[RHOPJ]

I adore The Lost Tapes, but it's time for the next phase.

 

[La Toya]

I loved Keisha’s idea of an all Girl Groups tour around the UK. Imagine the line up:

Sugababes
All Saints
Girls Aloud
Little Mix
Spice Girls
Steps
Honeyz
Atomic Kitten
Bananarama
Shakespeare Sisters

Please welcome… The girls! And Lee!

 

[OhJimmy87]

Five words: stop living in the past.

I wouldn’t mind getting those in a 20 year anniversary release of The Lost Tapes. But not now. We need new, current music.

Oh I mean, I’m absolutely here for new music over anything else. I was more coming from Open Book having its moment.

Whilst we all had some of this material before the official release / leaking - some folk haven’t heard the demos and if done right, they could quite easily reintroduce or rework some of the “unheard” material if they wanted to? I don’t really see the issue with that? It’s some of their best work.

Ummm... The Saturdays?

I tend to think an excess of material can be harmful, as it dilutes attention/appreciation of subsequent releases.

16 tracks on "The Lost Tapes" was a lot - do we really need (at this present moment) more tracks from that era, when another album with 10 - 16 tracks is probably on the way in the next 12 months?

 

[sugababesoverloaded]

I think a "The Lost Tapes 2" would have been perfect to follow up on the first release, but I believe that opportunity has passed. It's time to shift our focus to new and unheard music instead of dwelling on the past.

 

[Heidismiddle8]

I look forward to a fully supported new album campaign. Surely this year.

 

[Deleted member 1415]

With the sisters recent disgraceful behaviour, entirely justified sadly.

What happened?

Edit: OMG WTF I just read! I’m burning all my Eternal CDs! How incredibly gross!

The Lost Tapes was 13 songs and was perfect. They did then issue a deluxe version with extra tracks, as most artists tend to do but the standard is the go-to version for me. Back to Life, Breathe Me and Only You don't really feel as strong as the rest of the standard edition.

 

[Deleted member 1415]

Wrong. Back to Life is beautiful - those harmonies in the chorus. Siobhan's + Keisha's vokals on that especially in that pre-chorus = STELLAR.



Absolutely should've been on the standard.

oh it’s been a minute since I’ve listened to the deluxe version *goes and listens*

Only song I really didn't need was Breathe Me. Because it is bad.

I agree! I get it is Keisha’s favourite song on the album, but the overall production isn’t great unfortunately. They should have added Light Up instead.

LOVE Light Up!
