 ... can sometimes kill the mood of a great song. Jealous Girls is a single that reached an apocalyptically dreadful 89 in the UK charts upon its release in 2007. I feel this was massively uncalled for and the track well deserved a higher position. Featuring the same concept as the previous track, the verses appear to be the calming before the storm of the chorus which hosts a compression of action and talented vocals. I love this track and it is well worth a listen, in fact, I think this was the album track that firs...more

This has to be one of THE albums of recent years. The Gossip are one of the most exciting bands around at the moment.
