Tangled Up - Girls Aloud

Splitting soon, will their comeback really be worth multi-millions? Now that reality television is in our veins you may find yourself watching it without even realising, and just as with my Jordin Sparks review, I am once again turning my sights to review another musical talent that we have found through the art of singing every week and see how many people will pick up the phone to vote. I must also admit that there is a darker tone to the motive for this review, as I'm sure with the recent public break-up between Cheryl Tweddy and her footballer husband - Chelsea's left back, Ashley Cole - some may use their search enginges for the latest gossip on the affair and ...  Read the complete review

Believe it or not, this is the girls 4th studio album, and their 5th album overall. Despite being a huge Girls Aloud fan, I have never actually bought an album by the girls before, I only purchased their Greatest Hits last winter as I love the singles which were obviously on it. But after reading such positive reviews about this across the internet, and having a spare Amazon voucher, I thought this would be worth a try. And what a corker the girls have come out with here! Tangled Up is a different turn for the girls, with an album full of dancefloor filler tracks that are so catchy you will quickly find yourself singing along! The album is 12 tracks long and ...  Read the complete review

TANGLED UP is the title of British manufactured girl group GIRLS ALOUD's album. The album features 12 tracks. The opening song CALL THE SHOTS is an energetic number to start with some powerful vocals and a funky rhythm that is cranked up a notch at the chorus. CLOSE TO LOVE features some corny lyrics that are even more apparent at the chorus. However, the vocals are solid. SEXY NO NO NO is a fast paced track with an energetic rhythm that contains dodgy lyrics, but has a feel good factor. GIRL OVERBOARD tries too hard to tell a story through the lyrics so is let down in the other musical departments. CAN'T SPEAK ...  Read the complete review

Cast your mind back all those millions of years ago, way way back to 2002. That was a great year as it was the year my brother was born (a cause of celebration for all...), but it was also the year British girl band Girls Aloud were formed out of iTV's Pop stars: The Rivals. Even today this fantastic group are going strong, and have had many successful hits over the years. Girls Aloud consist of five band members, or 'Girls'; Cheryl Cole, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh, Nicola Roberts and Sarah Harding. They have released five top albums to date. Tangled Up was the fourth studio album they released, back in 2007. With its twelve tracks, Including three top ...  Read the complete review

Did someone at Girls Aloud HQ forget that they had to create an album cover, so knocked this one out at the last minute? Okay so after you get over the hugely disappointing cover art, you'll realise that this is actually a fantastic album. Having been a casual Girls Aloud follower before, 'Tangles Up' converted me into a hardcore fan. We start with 'Call the Shots' - the girl's most outstanding single to date; this is a sophisticated mature slice of pop with a gorgeous uplifting melody. A great opener for the album and a sign of things to come. Next is 'Close to Love' an infectious upbeat number with some (depending on how far your mind is into the gutter) ...  Read the complete review
