Girls Aloud are a British girl group created by talent show Popstars: The Rivals in 2002. The group, consisting of Cheryl Cole, Kimberley Walsh, Nadine Coyle, Nicola Roberts and Sarah Harding, has become one of the most successful British pop groups of the decade, with a record-breaking 19 consecutive Top 10 singles (including four number ones) and six albums (including two number ones).
Girls Aloud hold the record for the shortest time between formation and reaching number one in the UK Charts (with their platinum-selling début single "Sound of the Underground"), and have since become one of the few reality television groups to achieve continued success. Guinness World Records lists them as "Most Successful Reality TV Group" in the 2007 edition, and they also hold the record for "Most Consecutive Top Ten Entries in the UK by a Female Group" in the 2008 edition, with 15 consecutive top tens from "Sound of the Underground" in 2002 through to "Walk This Way" in 2007. Girls Aloud have since extended this record to 19 consecutive Top 10s from debut — the most recent being "The Promise" which reached #1 in October 2008.
Girls Aloud have a number of celebrity fans including the Jonas Brothers, Matt Helders, Chris Martin, Duff McKagan, and Neil Tennant. They have had their music covered by artists as varied as Arctic Monkeys, Billy Corgan, Coldplay, and Mark Morriss.
Girls Aloud were formed on 30 November 2002, in front of millions of viewers on the ITV1 programme Popstars: The Rivals. The concept of the programme, hosted by Big Brother presenter Davina McCall, was to produce a boyband and a girlband who would be 'rivals' and compete for the 2002 Christmas number one single. Following the initial success of Hear'Say (winners of the original Popstars show), several thousand applicants attended auditions across the UK in hope of being selected. Ten men and ten women were chosen as finalists by judges Pete Waterman, Louis Walsh and Geri Halliwell. Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts, who had made it into the final fifteen but not the final ten, were chosen as their replacements of 2 expulsed.
During October and November, the finalists took to the stage participating in weekly Saturday night live performances (alternating week-by-week between the girls and boys). Each week the contestant polling the fewest phone votes was eliminated, until the final line-ups of the groups emerged. The five girls who made it into the group were (in order) Cheryl Tweedy, Nicola Roberts, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Sarah Harding; Javine Hylton missed out on a place in the group, despite previous expectations that she would be placed in the line-up. The group were named Girls Aloud and were originally managed by Walsh until 2005 when Hilary Shaw replaced him. The runners-up, a boy band called One True Voice, were managed by Pete Waterman.

The two groups competed for the number one position in the Christmas week UK singles chart. Girls Aloud won the battle with their single "Sound of the Underground" (produced by Brian Higgins and Xenomania) which stayed at number one for four weeks. One True Voice released just two singles before disbanding in the summer of 2003.

"The Loving Kind" is the 20 single by British pop group Girls Aloud, and the second single to be taken from their fifth studio album, Out of Control. The song is co-written by the Pet Shop Boys, and will be released on 12 January 2009.
Pet Shop Boys member Neil Tennant said that they co-wrote the song while working with Xenomania, and described it as "beautiful but still dancey".
The original music video, directed by Trudy Bellinger, was premièred on 4 Music at 7pm and was shown on Channel 4 at 11:05pm on 3 December 2008. It can also be watched on AOL from 4-6 December. The making of the video was aired on MTV Hits on 13 December 2008, with reruns on both MTV Hits and TMF.
In the video, "the girls appear to be duplicated as they perform against a backdrop of multiple mirrors." The boxes are either coloured black, red, or white. The girls portray the "good" Girls Aloud, who are the lovable kind, and their "bad" alter egos, who are not. The bad Girls Aloud throw wine and smash the glass that covers their boxes. Pop music blog PopJustice noted that "twenty singles in, Girls Aloud have made their best video yet.
The CD single includes a Girls Aloud megamix created by Jewels & Stone, and will feature the intro and outro from the Stars on 45 medleys. There will once again be a 7" picture disc, which features a brand new b-side entitled "Memory of You", originally called "Japan". Remixes by Wideboys and Utah Saints were also commissioned.

For this video I have mixed the normal video with the "Wideboys Radio Edit" with some effects and changes in the timeline. It was very easy because the original video is very good.

Hope you enjoy it and remember to support to Girls Aloud buying original music!!!

  • This song is really terrible in some places and really good in others. I was so emphatic about this fact I edited the songs BS man chasing/romancing themes and harsh tones and cliche ideas. The song got chopped down to "Sometimes I watch you when you're sleeping, and wonder what your feeling". Sappy is ok, but I hate the rest of the song.
