Lyrics below:
1, 2, 3, 4
Everythin′ he does, better than anythin' ordinary
Everythin′ he wants, he gets, cause everythin'
He does is kinda necessary
I believe in love, tell me, can anythin' last forever
Life can live up to love
With a hand on my heart, I′m never sayin′ never
You're gonna make me, make me love you
Nothin′ at all, nothin' that I do
The promise I made, the promise I made
Is startin′ to fade, startin' to fade (fade)
You′re gonna make me, make me love you
Nothin' at all, that I cannot do
The promise I made, the promise I made
Is startin' to fade, startin′ to fade
Maybe next time I′ll take a ride on by
I wanna feel you near
'Cause I can′t play this like I'm into now
My Aladdins lamp is down
And I gotta fear, oh baby, right here
Givin′ up, just looking into windows, yeah
I've had enough of wishin′, I've found you
Baby don't you know
I′ve had as much as I can take of fallin′, yeah
Got a lot to learn 'bout ridin′ through
'Cause you′re gonna make me, make me love you
Nothin' at all, nothin′ that I do
The promise I made, the promise I made
Is startin' to fade, startin' to fade (fade)
You′re gonna make me, make me love you
Nothin′ at all, that I cannot do
The promise I made, the promise I made
Is startin' to fade, startin′ to fade
Here I am
Walkin' Primrose
Wonderin′ when I'm gonna see you again
So here I am
Walkin′ Primrose
Wonderin' when I'm gonna see you again
I got my hands all ready to touch your soul
I′m gonna get the energy to wire me close to you
Got my eyes on the prize I see
Are you watching me, baby?
′Cause my heart is turnin' to solid gold
And my head is sayin′: honey too good to be true
Oh, one look in your glitter eyes
How else tellin' me every time
′Cause you're gonna make me, make me love you
Nothin′ at all, nothin' that I do
The promise I made, the promise I made
Is startin' to fade, startin′ to fade (fade)
You′re gonna make me, make me love you
Nothin' at all, that I cannot do
The promise I made, the promise I made
Is startin′ to fade, startin' to fade
Maybe it′s not that hard to know you
Maybe we'll make it up and go
Maybe we′ll work things out
There's only one way up and one way down, I know
If you wanna convince me, start again
If you wanna be with me in my arms
'Cause you′re gonna make me, make me love you
Nothin′ at all, nothin' that I do
The promise I made, the promise I made
Is startin′ to fade, startin' to fade (fade)
You′re gonna make me, make me love you
Nothin' at all, that I cannot do
The promise I made, the promise I made
Is startin′ to fade, startin' to fade
(Maybe next time I'll take a ride on by)
(I wanna feel you near)
(Maybe next time I′ll take a ride on by)
Crikey, Sarah had it all, the voice, the looks, the charisma! Such a shame she has passed away RIP
She had a unique voice and personality gone too young such a tragedy the pandemic stopped her getting checked and treated earlier x
Agree with everything you said there except the voice! Sorry - she’s shouting here and bang AVERAGE vocalist
@@danielforsyth9073 I know so many people not had cancer operations cos of covid
@@oliverdesvaux she’s certainly not average and she had one of the best voices. RIP Sarah.
@@missdoglover1644 pls check out her singing THREADS live before you talk such nonsense again to me. RIP
Sarah blew me away on this performance, that note she holds before the final chorus is EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!
I played 100 times today, I must confess.
RIP lovely Sarah 💔
I actually think she’s shouting - not much tone and texture. The gibger one is the best voice; and I’m in no way biased- I am a grade 8 vocalist - just judging what I hear)
@@beanstaIkjack your mum
@@oliverdesvaux A grade 8 Vocalist, he scoffs. You sound like a jerk. A jerk nobody has heard of and likely never will
To this day, this is their best live performance of this song
The best song they've ever done.
For me The Best live versión Is the raw versión on Jonathan Ross show
Nicola low key was the best singer who got better as she aged.....and her natural beauty still takes my breath away even today in 2024.
Defs!
These girls were so underrated! They deserved way more!
Yes ❤
R.I.P Sarah Nicole Harding. 17/11/81-05/09/21 you will be missed. And never forgotten. Another angel who’s gained her angel wings.
❤
Obliterates any argument that they couldn't perform live. Stunning
❤
How beautiful are Nadine, Nicola and Sarah? Looks and voice.
Rest in Peace Sarah. Thank you for sharing your beautiful voice and your great talent brought great joy to the world.
❤
where is she? maldivas?
Our walking primrose, so very talented xxx
❤
The world will never get to hear Sarah do that high note after the “baby” ever again, it’s a true shame RIP
Sarah’s vocals are so underrated. Poor girl she had it all 💔💔
She had it all but certainly NOT the voice - sorry! Nothing distinctive or remotely unique about her voice IMO
@@oliverdesvaux wtf how
@@LWYRUP05 she’s shouting bro- “here I am - a walking primrose”. Listen back- no tone or texture to that sound. The ginger one has the best voice in this snippet of the song, but she’s only singing for like 5 seconds! 😂 (Guess she was deemed not as pretty as the others eh?) 😂
@@oliverdesvaux Bullshit!
@@oliverdesvaux Delusional. It's called belting. Besides, in terms of everything, this is how the members of Girls Aloud are vocally:
1. Nadine
2. Sarah
3. Nicola
4. Cheryl
5. Kimberly
Sarah and Nadine carried this group with their powerful vocals - I love this song. Interesting to note that despite all their talent, beauty and wealth none of them bar Kim has achieved a happy marriage.
Sarah,,, OMG; Wat a natural BEAUTY.abso stunning.Defo my favourite. 60s Twiggy hairstyle just re-enhances her natural beauty
Too young when she passed away. Never got the chance to marry, have children, see the rest of the world. Too sad, my condolences to Sarah's family
It is tragic she died young but not because she didn’t have kids. Not all women desire kids. You sound like her life was wasted because she had no kids meh
@@5mini5 you're right, not everyone is into children. Whatever Sarah wanted in life, it was cut short due to this cruel illness. It's so unfair when you think about it, there are so many terrible people in this world that their lives seems to go on and on like those evil dictators. Just so unfair ☹
@@5mini5 she did want kids tho
She definitely went too soon😢
@@r.ssmartinShe definitely want them. But she couldn’t find, anyone to have it with.
Oh and that final falsetto by Nadine...just glorious👏👏👏
Andrés Escobar Sermeño was actually head voice I think very beautiful 👏
❤
I think after seeing nicola performing on The masked singer this year, it just proves that she deserved more attention
YESSSSSS HIT IT QUEEN!
Nicola has such an amazing voice !!!
Apparently she is a very nasty person (just saying).
@@msmagpie5620 could that be from not getting enough attention in the group and be pushed from the back? I guess until you meet her yourself, you can’t really know
Cheryl got all the attention based solely on her looks. Can't sing, can't dance. And yes, her many high profile marriages.
HERE I AAAAAM, WALKING PRIMROOOSE... love Sarah so much, going all out, giving it all she has. i love them all. this performance is incredible. an evergreen.
Nadine and Sarah were phenominal here, in the GA days I would have said they were the best vocally but I think Nicola has the strongest vocals now since watching masked singer. I love them all tho :)
Nadine made this band omg , Sarah 🙏
Nobody knows them in Latin America but I remember running into this presentation by pure chance and it got stuck somewhere in my mind. Years later I started looking it up and I found out who Girls Aloud had been. They were/are incredible as a group. I don't understand people's strong favouritism though. Every girl added something to the group and it just worked.
I'm Chilean and with my best friend we felt so alone when we talked about them, we stan them since around the Chemistry era, we love them so much, until today
Well said friend
Well said freind
Bien dicho
Latin America loves Girls Aloud!!! Sending lots of love to our beloved Sarah ❤️
it's impossible for me to listen to The Promise and not think about that amazing climax moment by Sarah.
Watching this after all these years still makes me feel proud as a fan. Perhaps Girls Aloud wasn't the most globally recognized girl group but they will always be one of the most iconic girl groups and so is this performance💗
Much better than Spice Girls.
@@janthomson7697 🤣 Spice girls are the best selling Girl group of all time try harder ... Girls aloud are the best group of the 00s though I adored them.
Rest in peace Sarah
So young so beautiful
So sadly taken from this world
Lord please keep Sarah forever safe and peacefully in heaven
We loved her but you loved her that bit more
You're not gone until you're forgotten Sarah, and we will never ever forget you". Walking Primrose 🌹💔🙏
I just want to meet Nicola Roberts once and tell her how much she inspires me 😭fanmail doesn't do justice to how much respect I have for this woman.
Gorgeous finale by Nadine!
These girls are just ICONIC! Pity they have no chance to reunion.
For girls aloud were the best girl group around ps it's a shame that beautiful gorgeous stunning and with charisma and charm that Sarah Harding is not going to be around anymore on stage with her band mates rip rest in peace Sarah harding
These girls have something that is totally unique. They just make me smile. The girls will totally honour Sarah ❤
❤
Is that Nadine singing the high ad-libs at the end? I love it!
Sarah
Nadine
Yeah she’s amazing
Sopriye Dodiyi-Manuel sarah okay
Clearly Nadine in the last chorus
All the Girls Aloud songs bring back SO many happy memories throughout my 20's. They are awesome. Always loved Sarah, so REAL and if there was one who would have been your friend in the group, I think it would have been her. It's hard to understand, but I truly believe there is a bigger picture that we will only understand when its out turn to go. RIP Sarah ❤️
Love your comment x
Same!! Xx
Absolutely in tears watching this now.
I wasn't a Girls fan, but first time I heard this, wow!!!
This tune will stand the test of time, I have no doubt..... Easily sits in my top 20 and this from a Clash, Bowie, Wonder, Beatles, Killers etc fan!!!
Sarah, wow, you had it all girl
Brilliant. Classy ladies .rip Sarah 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Coming back here with a broken hearted watching Sarah killing on the vocals, girl we'll miss you
Now nadien is signing this in the jungle with Caitlin Jenner :)
Nadine is just on another level with her power vocals
What a performance 12 years later still my favourite Girl aloud performance R.I.P Sarah❤️

Until the day I die this song will forever be my youth, the memories, the feelings ❤❤

The late Miss Harding and the Irish Lass were amazing.

❤
Miss you Sarah sing your heart out in heaven beautiful one RIPx 🕊️🌹🙏🏻❤️
Why is everyone speaking about Cheryl and Nadine, YES! They Are amazing! But that note Sarah hit was OUTSTANDING! Wow! Go on girl!
Flat note. She was screaming not belting.
The note was everything; I have had it on repeat all day...
Absolutely beautiful well done RIP beautiful lady shine in heaven you always shined on earth our hearts forever diamonds are forever xxxxx
God, now that they split up I found about the Girls... obsessed with The Promise and Something New
Sarah just struggles to finish that note smoothly...!
The kind of track that gives ‘pop music’ a good name…❤❤
Cheryl,s vocals.......Atrocious !!!!!!
No
Too be honest.....you never realize what you had until it has gone......i always put these girls above the Spice girls.....outstanding live vocals and stage presence. Unfortunately now all gone since Sahra sadly passed away
Love this performance, rest in peace Sarah
One of the best Brit performances in my opinion.
Not a huge fan but they absolutely knocked this out the park. Especially the Irish lass. 👏🏾👌🏾
Sarah was amazing such a loss ,
❤
RIP Sarah Harding 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
I love girls aload lovely group
I wa s12 watching this and i really loved them, especially Cheryl and Kimberly... 🍑🍉🍉👀
ICONIC
I love girls aloud best girlband in the world
Classy, gorgeous, song great, voices good... Sarah was stunning. RIP lovely gal.
this has always been one of my all time favourite performances. rip beautiful sarah i've been thinking about you every second of every day no matter what i'm doing, i hope you're okay up there in heaven💜
Sarah is just amazing
Their finest moment. I am so happy they won that Brit.Well deserved for putting out such amazing albums that went platinum. 21 singles that where hits, 20 of those going top 10. For 4 Number 1's and 2 Number 1 albums. For being the only girl band in the UK that can currently sell out 32 arenas in one year 300,000 tickets. For selling 1 million arena tour tickets to date. For being liked by media, public and press. For the rising of Cheryl's amazing solo career and for a Brit award. GO ALOUD!!!!
Glad they won a brit award ❤
Nadine is the best she carries them the whole way
I agree. I thought she was brilliant and Cheryl was shite.
I forget if this was before or after they got single of the year, as Sarah looked like she was having a great time at the acceptance speech bless haha
And flights of angels will guide thee to thy rest
Sarah made this song, amazing vocals. R.i.p beautiful angel xxx
Think the girl's are fabulous singing this brilliant song.
Absolutely love this song.
I noticed there were a couple of vocal mistakes or slips if you may, but am amazed at the way they cover up each other and support so that the audience would not notice it ❤✌ extremely well done!
God bless Sarah xxxxxx peace be with you beautiful lady xxxxx
Who's here because we want these girls back?
Oh this ship has sailed, brother
goodbye sarah we'll miss you 😥
RIP Sarah❤️
Sarah's voice is not made for low notes; Kimba's voice would've fit better for the first verse, but Sarah still did a great job in the second verse. I think Nicola and Kimba deserved more lines in the song, they both got well-controlled vocals. Still, this is one of my favorite performances ever from the girls.
Only know this Song and lost my Heart at Cheryl. Rip sarah.
Come through with the vocals Nic♥️😏
Don’t understand how no one has commented about Sarah in this and that belt out note😍
ikr I was thinking the same thing
Sarah was amazing here vocally and looked gorgeee !! 😍 May she rest in power 💗
Good job they had Nadine and Sarah ♥️
I'm from another music planet and don't really know much about Girls Aloud, but have to admit this is well catchy and very enjoyable!
That was a great performance rip Sarah H 😥
❤
Awesome amazing beautiful ❤
Classic song ❤
RIP Sarah. This was one of the songs where her voice was very hearable.
RIP beautiful Sarah 🙏
The camera work on this is absymal
Don't forget it was in 2009 and filmed live. The cameras weren't at the same standard they are now.
Total chaos!
Agreed, weird cuts and for some reason several shots panning up the girls, when they were covered in feathers anyway!
Promise girls aloud tragic loss Sarah harding fantastic voice
I can't believe they only have one brit award!
Well there's hardly one or two singers in the band so...
Love her or hate her ... BUT Nadine has always flawlessly sing (Louis Walsh also recently confirmed that). She and Sarah, deserve more audience : i just love their personality and the fact that they're not bitchy or pushy at all (...)
BlackFashionGlam totally agree
Thank u ! It's just the truth
You're so right.
Agree about Nadine, but Sarah always seemed like a cow to me, also she appeared on Corrie for two eps and her acting was attrocious
True, I think Cheryl is a bitch
If you are looking for the best; nothing better than non-existence and nothing compares to it, it is the best and on top of the list !!!!! ☮☮☮☮☮
