Ahem? Could anyone explain to me how come this one has done so well? The chorus is a complete non event and its only part that could maintain my interest in some way is Queen Of The Middle 8's Heidi Range slaying in full force. Meh. 5/10.

Rachel keeps effortlessly SLAYING the girls with this Goldfrapp semi-ripoff. After handing over ''Some Girls'' to Rachel, the amazing Richard X (he's worked with Sugababes 1.0 aswell omg) gave this one aswell. Thank god he did! It's much like their first collaboration (especially rhythm-wise) but you won't hear me complaining! It's a shame many people didn't seem to recognise the absolute pop brilliance captured in these 4 minutes. 9,5/10.

In December 2005, Mutya (read: the mastermind behind Sugababes) left the band and was replaced by some chav girl named Amelle Berrabah. The release of their first single (''Red Dress'') went quite decently but their second single was quite a disaster. Entering the chart (and peaking) at #34, it became their lowest-charting single to date (yes even ''Soul Sound'' outpeaked it!) which is actually still is.

Fans blame the label for not promoting the single, or the Babes themselves for not bothering, some even to Mutya, who expressed disdain with some irrelevant bitch singing her ~personal~ lines about her child (and with the video aswell), but ultimately, the song isn't just all that. After having released some amazing ballads like ''Run For Cover'', ''Stronger'', ''Too Lost In You'' and ''Caught In A Moment'', this one is just a massive dissapointment. 5/10.

In a tie with a song that has even more tens (teaser~~), this quite amazing closer surely deserves all the praise it receives. You hear the guitar? Heidi's quite amazing vocals? The subtle build-up? And then the build-up doesn't get so subtle anymore and it explodes into a orgasm of sadness? Although it doesn't work well with the album as it's way too dark in comparison to most of the album which is less emotional and more light-minded, it remains a brilliant track and I regret not giving it a ten (which would have brought the song ONE place up, hoorah). 9/10.
