Oh my God. I've just realised what a vinyl is. Please tell me that we'll get a decent mp3 rip soon!

Their best b-side, ever! It's like Turn To Stone Part 2, that's a good thing btw.

The megamix is really good too! Better than the last one.

people are e-mailing Facsination, trying to get them to put it on iTunes. I think it might end up on their next best-of, like "Loving Is Easy," which was also originally only on the "Love Machine" 7".

I want HQ now. =(

Memory of You is amazing

Kaiouforever · #5 11th January 2009, 08:09 PM

Whoever decided to make this a vinyl only release is an idiot. This song should have been on the album!

Memory of You... I <3 you!

They should totally stick MOY on the TLK iTunes single as an album only track as a sneaky trick to boost downloads.

LOVE YOU SARAH!

TLK is no. 10 in the midweeks, but the song is still dropping on iTunes. The Saturdays, on the other hand, have risen to no. 4 this week.

Re:★ · #12 14th January 2009, 12:59 AM

I blame January 12th.

Not that I'm bovvad. :B

drewbilation · #13 14th January 2009, 03:45 PM

I am! I want them to keep their streak for as long as they're around.

on the other hand, though, if they break it, they won't be as restricted with single choices and the number of singles they release. the fourth single from TU was canceled because "Can't Speak French" barely made top ten.

anyway, they're still at no. 10 today, but Kanye is rising on iTunes. =x

Guardian article:

Quote:

Hanging out with Girls Aloud, whose ages range from 23 to 28, is sometimes like dealing with a bunch of mouthy teenagers and sometimes like confronting a group of very practised media professionals. Occasionally the personas overlap, as when I asked them what roles each of the Girls fulfil in the group. Kimberley says she is "the organiser"; Nadine promptly and repeatedly describes herself as "the singer - I do most of the vocals", which chimes oddly with the group's frequently professed "confederacy of equals" ethos. But then Nicola breaks off, protesting the question is "too . . . too . . ." Self-analytical? "Yeah!" she cries, and the rest loudly agree. Are they bored by such introspection? Or are they trying to avoid revealing too much? A little of both, probably.

The most revealing moment of the group dynamic comes when they try to reveal nothing at all. Eventually, and squirmingly, I bring up the infamous tabloid story from last year about Cheryl's footballer husband Ashley Cole's vomit-flecked one-night stand. Did she do The X Factor partly to shuck off her "poor Cheryl" tabloid moniker?

"It wasn't, y'know," she begins, not even blinking at the question. "We didn't even talk about it, did we? Well, we did but . . ." When it looks like she might be beginning to go off-message Kimberley jumps in with a soothing PR-friendly statement: "I just think it's great that it's all ended so well. That's all I've got to say." Cheryl takes her bandmate's lead: "Yeah, I have far more positive things to go on about, so I do."

Memory Of You is remarkable. Not like I hadn't heard it until now, but I just wanted to say that it really is. The lyrics are possibly their best ever.
