Excellent Pop Music

"I recently went to Tower Records to buy some singles, and I couldn't figure out what to buy. I heard of Girls Aloud, but I wasn't sure if their song was good or not. Having gone to London, I actually heard snippets of this song, "The Show" but I didn't pay much attention. So I decided to randomly buy the single for this song even though I had no idea it was really good.



Anyway, the song, "The Show" by Girls Aloud is a new single released back in June I believe (even though Amazon.com says it was released this month!) and it's a standard pop track, but it's excellent.



Album Version:: This version is the best, it starts off with some seriously good synths and proceeds to some catchy choruses and hooks. The UK music industry does really know how to create some excellent pop music. I would recommend this song to anybody who really likes energetic pop music.



Gravitas Club Mix:: Since I generally do like remixes, I figured if I didn't like the original, I would like the remix. This remix is pretty bland and doesn't go really fast. Meaning it doesn't keep the pace up with the original. It's pretty decent, but nothing that catchy to say, "Hey I like the remix version more."





Extras:: Please don't be fooled that there's an "instrumental" version because there is not. Instead, there's a karaoke video on the CD-ROM EXTRAS that can be accessed when you put it in the computer. In addition, there's the regular video with the vocals. There's also a game, but that's not really relevant to the music.





Overall::This single is excellent way to get started with Girls Aloud. I have never heard their music before, but since I bought this single, I might just check out their new album and other singles in the future."
