Sugababes

For me, the girls best 3 non singles from each era are as follows:

One Touch
1. Promises
2. One Foot In
3. Lush Life

Angels With Dirty Faces
1. Blue
2. Supernatural
3. Switch / Just Don’t Need This

Three
1. Million Different Ways
2. Whatever Makes You Happy
3. Sometimes

Taller in More Ways
1. Gotta Be You
2. It Ain’t Easy
3. Ace Reject

Change
1. Never Gonna Dance Again
2. My Love Is Pink

Sweet 7
1. Wait For You
2. Miss Everything
3. Thank You For The Heartbreak

The Lost Tapes
1. Boys
2. Metal Heart
3. No Regrets / I’m Alright

As always, there are a few more but I tried to keep to three (where possible), and I didn’t include ‘Catfights & Spotlights’ as I am not a fan and have never listened to it since release.

Will take this opportunity to randomly mention that No Regrets is one of the best things they've ever done. Just stunning and I can't believe it almost ended up lost in the vault forever.
You're so right and the version from Google+ Sessions still gives me goosebumps every time. THOSE VOCALS!

Got to say, picking just three songs from the lost tapes was very difficult.

I struggled most with Change as overall I'd say they picked the best tracks for the singles.
 
Is Siobhan... okay? I've watched some of the recent performances and she seems a little off in terms of her vocals. As if she had a permanent sore throat.

Obsession is brilliant and one that I had genuinely forgotten to add to my list. The list I hammer this tune on my Sugababes playlist makes me so embarrassed that I forgot to add it.

In regards to ‘The Lost Tapes’, it still upsets me to this day that ‘Light Up’ was never included, on the standard or deluxe version of the album. It is absolutely brilliant!
 
I kind of not vibe with Gotta Be You at all. I feel like Tricky's sound kind of overpowers their own identity. Heidi could never sell me the more R&B-leaning tracks, I'm sorry. Dare I say it, it's the closest they ever got to... whatever Sweet 7 sounded like before Sweet 7 happened - trying to Americanize their sound, but at least with Keisha and Mutya helping the song stay afloat.

I love Better from Taller In More Ways. The 'message' of it is basically the same as Ugly. But good. How it was UK only is ridiculous when it could've been a great single.

I always wondered about the licensing reasons around U.K. bonus tracks. The two on S Club 7’s second album were released by other artists in other territories, but I’m curious what the reasoning behind ‘Better’ was.
