    Girlthing were a good girlband. I still have their CD after all these years.
    This song deserved more credit than it got, and these girls were not given a fair chance by their record manager.
    It's sad a talented girlband went to waste.

      I don’t think they could last. They had too much drama going on. The girls were separated into two sides, Linzi and Anika on one side, and Nikki and Michelle on the other side.

      Actually, its not the management. The girls were fighting and did not go well with each other. There was a reunion before, it was about them being banned from having boyfriends, the that one member secretly dated their manager or something and the members knew and they fought. They broke up and the rest was history.

    Great finding this again. They were a feisty girl group and a lot of fun. This was a terrific song. But there were two stings that they suffered. Sting number one was their next song was going to be "Pure and Simple" which Cowell took off them after they had recorded it and gave it to Pop Stars' winners, Hear'Say, who went on to have a number one with it. Girl thing were then dropped by Cowell.
    Sting number two is the shortage of success of this song, which was unfortunate, reaching only number 25 in the UK chart. The song's music is an amalgum of several hits from the 1970s and 1980s including the Crown Heights Affair's "You Gave Me Love" for the bassline, Blondie's "Rapture" for the cowbell, McFadden & Whitehead's "Ain't No Stopping Us Now" for more bassline, and Michael Zager Band's "Let's All Chant" from 1977 for the "Ooh Ooh" bits and there were several others I used to remember but have now forgotten.
    The problem was, and usually is, for nearly any artist or group that does a harp-back to the 1970s/80s disco era, it is usually a career-ending move. The only one to suvive this fate was Kylie Minogue.

    such a classic song. it did so bad here in Australia - I think it reached in the 40s but should have been up the top of the charts. I mean if B*Witched Rollercoaster could get to number 1 then this should have too. Lots of good songs like I'm like a Bird, Don't Stop Movin', S Club Party and Shackles Praise You got to number 2 in Australia but not number one, it's shocking

    • @sounds0fmeows
      @sounds0fmeows 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      B*Witched was more organic in terms of style and personality, they didn’t come across as fake, didn’t imitate anyone, They had their Irish sound, and the double denim look, meanwhile Girl Thing was trying too hard to be the Spice Girls- copied their looks, copied their music videos, and they didn’t gel like a girl gang vibe… they filmed a segment of them living in a house together but it was very cringey, and forced..

    As a 10 year old this seemed to be the best thing ever, like many other pop acts at the time, Steps, S Club 7 and S Club Juniors etc, looking back it was so bad, it was tripe and I wonder if all the 20 somethings who were kids at the time would buy this now. You can see now how much of this was manufactured, but if I had kids I'd rather they listen to this cheesy happy-go-lucky 90s/00s pop compared to the Miley/Nicki's of today.

    I'm guessing this was their first single because it's actually quite a good song and can become catchy, their second song though.... I can definitely understand why it flopped it was such a different sound, there was a lot of rapping and it was so different compared to this one. for a girl group just starting out you kind of don't wanna change your sound until you're established. for any artist actually. If they had stuck to this type of sound for their second single it would've done just as great as this one and they maybe could've been up there with girls aloud or even the spice goals. big shame.
