That was an amazing video. Definitely their best in awhile, although they usually don't disappoint.

LOL the bodies scared me at the start XD
The idea of the video is really good! Waaaay better than Girls \o/

the 'Babes performed "No Can Do" on the Paul O'Grady show today.

Ok so I totally never downloaded C&S when it was first put up and the link isn't working :( I shall go request a re-up cause I'm really liking what I've heard so far, and I love Sugababes :) It took me two or three listens to get into No Can Do but now NCD=love!

"No Can Do" has reached #83 this week. Based on both singles and downloads. :laugh

NEW ALBUM PLZ. But wait until early 2010, okay?

Why are they failing omg. I loved this album. :weep

Sounds bad. This album feels like a real flop now. Every time I run into some news, it's like it's not even mediocre commercially.

I'm surprised the album/singles are doing so poorly :( It took me a listen or two before I could really appreciate it, but I think it's an amazing album. It's a lot more mature than their other albums so maybe that's why it hasn't caught on the way it should...

HOLD ON A SECOND I GOT IT WRONG.

Last week was just downloads again. They've actually just scraped the top 40 at #34 in the midweeks, but that's still horrible.

MOAR BAD NEWS!!!

Island will be releasing no more singles, naturally. So that's this era over with already.

The Sugababes have announced that they will be working with producers behind Rihanna and Beyoncé's biggest hits on their next album.

Band member Keisha Buchanan revealed that they would team up with top US producers to work on their seventh studio album next year, but remained tight-lipped over their identities.

"We're going to be working with producers who've worked with Beyoncé and Rihanna so we're really looking forward to next year," she told DS.

"We'd also love to work with Cee-Lo from Gnarls Barkley - we met him when we were working with [US record producer] Dallas Austin and we'd love to do something with him."

The singer added that the group would take their time working on the follow-up to Catfights And Spotlights, which failed to match the success of their previous albums.

"We want to start in February and take about a year to write it. But it depends - if everything goes well and we get a massive single, then obviously we'll come back straight away."

^ Eh. They said the exact thing about Timbaland...

So no more new Sugababes for a few months! :(

"No Can Do" ended up charting at no. 23 this week.

:banana1:banana2:banana1:banana2

WOOOOO!

23 isn't that bad I guess...Just thought this album would fare better. It feels a bit different from Change though. Not in a bad way, just different.
