yeah, it's not really a "stormer," is it? but I like it a lot.

I didn't hear any Nicola, though.

Yeah, calling it a "stormer" had me expecting another Sexy! No No No... or Something Kinda Ooooh, but it was pretty relaxed in my opinion. It has kind of a jazzy, classical feel to it. And yeah, I didn't hear Nicola either. At least Kimberley was in the bridge. And yay for the key change at the end.

[drewbilation]

I think that's Nicola at around 2:12ish.

here's the radio rip, Nadine's interview and the whole thing~ quality's not the best and there are a few minor glitches, but it'll hold until we get a HQ leak, anyway.

Damn! That's so soon. Well I'll be watching for it.

And btw, I kind of love the song now.

I like the song!It's not a "stormer".

[bernardation]

not a stormer at all, but i guess there's something very commercial in this song.
i guess it is going to do great at the charts.

and let's not forget to mention: MUCH better than the sugababes' new song.

I agree, with both parts. The Sugababes' new song is far too repetitive, albeit a good song still. The Promise is really catchy and I think it could be a big success commercially. I'm dying to find out what the cover looks like.

I kinda love that song. It has a certain touch in it I really love.

[drewbilation]

apparently, the video will take place at a drive-in movie theater, with dancers, and the girls will eventually end up in the movie. also, they'll be wearing '60s-styled clothing.

[Cyria]

That sounds like it could be fun. They should look good in 60s clothing.

60's clothing!So cool!

[drewbilation]

Nadine has shingles, so she's not on Live Lounge this morning. this account on YouTube is continuously uploading the show as it occurs.

edit~ besides "The Promise," they also performed One Republic's "Apologize." "The Promise" was good, but it would've been amazing with Nadine there. Sarah was very good, though - much better than I expected her to be, at least.

[drewbilation]

music video for "The Promise" is out!

they all look amazing, but Nicola's hair is bordering on yuck.

[bondingo]

Very cute video. It was pretty much what I was expecting, but the girls looked even cuter than I anticipated.

POP STAR Nadine Coyle (23) has been forced to quit the music business for one month after being struck down with shingles.

Doctors have ordered bed rest for the Girls Aloud singer in order to beat the virus.

The Derry girl was given an emergency medical appointment after falling sick earlier this week. She was suffering with a soaring temperatureand agonising pain and nearly collapsed in her LA apartment.

Worried friends rushed the singer to the doctors, who diagnosed shingles.

The illness, a skin complaint caused by the same virus as chickenpox, is often associated with stress or illness that affects the immune system.

Her bandmate and X Factor judge Cheryl Cole said Nadine has been confined to bed.

"She is really ill with it and can't come to any engagements," said Cheryl. "Poor Nadine was complaining of feeling unwell for a while but it really hit her badly in the last few days.

"She couldn't even get on the plane because she was so unwell so it's really important for her to get a break now. We're all rooting for her and hope she gets well soon. She can have all the time off she needs to get better," said Cheryl.

People close to Nadine have put her recent exhaustion down to her gruelling schedule with Girls Aloud and her transatlantic commuting.

"She is on long-haul flights every couple of weeks because she spends so much time in Los Angeles," said a friend. "It leaves her feeling very tired and everything has caught up with her recently. Everyone is telling her to slow down a bit because she can't keep up this schedule. It's clearly making her ill.

"She's also the main singer in the band so that comes with a lot of stress and pressure too," the friend added. "She needs to get her energy levels up and then she can rejoin the girls next month."

Nadine, who is dating NY Giants American Football star Jason Bell, has spent most of the past two months in LA, where her family run an Irish theme bar.

****. hope she's better in time for the X Factor performance.

[howtousesexy]

Aww poor Nadine. Hope she gets better soon.

And the music video is pretty cool, really like it.

[Re:★]

Remember when a wasp attacked Nadine at the V Festival...?





Way to make something hilarious even funnier. Get well soon Nads!
