okay, so for Three all of the girls were to record a solo track each and this is Heidi's. However, where the other two got solo tracks Heidi got this number with a heavy Keisha feature. I can only imagine how that went down in the studio and I'm 100% sure it was Keisha who insisted on being on this, probably not wanting Heidi to have any limelight. You can hear the strain in her voice as Keisha digs her nails into her side under the table.
Oh, the song? It's pretty clunky and definitely the lowlight of the album #PoorHeidi
And I don't see anyone caring too much about this next two.

It's filler, let's just be honest. Very cute, fluffy filler but filler nonetheless. Shouldn't have outlasted Undignified, but this is a good place for it. Bye!

My least favourite song on the album. The chorus is nice but the verses just do nothing for me, especially in between two vastly superior songs on the tracklist. And if we're being honest, they should've just got Amelle to do this one on her own.

Someone once said that Amelle sounded like Joss Stone on Back Down, and I could not unhear it. Shame!
Ugh, Undignified. So good.

Think I'll get the next update up and running in 30 minutes?
A lot of b-side slaughter and I know someone in particular will be heartbroken.

An unfortunate cut, it is the weakest on the regular album for me but it's still quite good and would be on the upper parts of a lot of their other albums. Ideally this would be Top 40 with the rest of the album but... well, you'll see.

Once again this is only the first cut from the album because it is a b-side. I think it might be my absolute favourite Suga cover. They all really shine on this and the da-da-da chant is just entrancing. This is my highest Angels With Dirty Faces score so you can all get wrecked.

Catchy if a little basic, but it is the most ordinary of the Taller b-sides so I'm not surprised it lasted the longest. It's okay, could've lasted a bit more but I ain't mad.

Basic beyond belief. The fact that this beat Killer has me aggravated to say the least. One of the absolute worst 2.0 track and one of the biggest reasons Angels is one of my least favourite albums by them. But you lot like it so whatever. Should've left in the 80s.

Like this one for it's ambition more than the song itself, but it is quite good. I'm glad this was kept as a b-side as I don't think it would fit on the album but that doesn't detract from the quality. The best part is clearly the intro and it's re-appearance at the end. Good stuff.

A shocker perhaps? This is a big fan favourite I believe and rightfully so, it's so perfectly moody and atmospheric. I already mentioned this for Colder In the Rain, but 2.0 do this haunting sound so well and it really is what set them apart. We weren't going to get the follow-up to One Touch with these girls but somehow this made that old era feel miles away. The distorted vocals at the final chorus are just the cherry on top. This was doing so well until the last voters completely blitzed it. ****ing die tbh.

Not even sure what this is from? A compilation for Island records or something. Not sure how it snuck so far, maybe people went temporarily deaf after listening to Shake It a few songs prior? Nothing of interest here, but the Misc tracks hold on by a thread. How long can the good sis Good To Be Gone (Ode to Mutya) hang on?

Disturbed deserved better! The haters are not surprising though.
And yeah, Look at Me was the weakest on One Touch but the rest better stay untouched for some time now.

A cute ballad, but it is a bit faceless. It is beautifully sung (duh, this isn't a Girls Aloud rate) but it's ultimately not a very engaging track. I like it a little though.

Overall it is a little basic but those bells on the chorus, lord. Such a small detail really picks up the whole song. I like it a lot, but it is my least favourite of the b-sides for this era. I would've put it higher but I'm not mad it left here.

I feel like I may have underscored this one. It's so... dramatic and sometimes I'm not in the mood for that. A 10 on a good day, but I think I wasn't feeling it during the voting. Definitely a cute song though and I don't think I would've minded if it snuck into the Top 40.
