One Love, One Heart, Lets Get Together... (GREAT Britain)
10 out of 10 found this review helpful
Wow. Finally some genuine pop music. I am a fan of lots of genres of music, however, upbeat, manufactured pop has never really been on my playlists. br br Then one day along come Girls Aloud. Like the majority of the population I quickly dismissed them, though their first single was fantastic. I do not own any of the girls previous albums, because despite some really catchy singles, I never saw them to be Album material. br br So, then comes the song Biology. Wow, what a tune. Its so different from everyday pop tunes and just brings a fresh new vibe to the British music scene. I waited for the next single, See The Day which I was really impressed with, so I bought the album and lets just say, I dont regret it. br br It kicks off with the superb #x27;Models#x27;,upbeat and fun to dance to in your bedroom! Next is Biology. br #x27;Wild Horses#x27; then comes and is just a superb, attitude-ridden slamming tune, with some wonderfully quirky verses. After this comes #x27;See The Day#x27;, and then #x27;Watch Me Go#x27; which is a slightly weaker tune, but is listenable to. p #x27;Waiting#x27; is simply fantastic. The crazy lyrics build the song up and Nadine and Nicola#x27;s vocals are faultless. Next is a brilliant ballad - #x27;Whole Lotta#x27; History#x27;. The beginning is a little weak, but the vocals of Cheryl, Nadine and Nicola make the song great, and give real emotion to it. Fantastic.br br #x27;Long Hot Summer#x27; didnt do too well last year, but it does seem to grow on you the more you hear despite the random first line - "I know you like to wear my dressing gown when I#x27;m not there". br br #x27;Swinging London Town#x27; is fantastic, but im not quite sure why. It takes such a new direction in music, that it needs many listens. #x27;Its Magic#x27; and #x27;No Regrets#x27; are good album tracks, but are not right for release. Finally, #x27;Racey Lacey#x27; signs off with style and fun. An upbeat fab pop tune, that reminds me of #x27;The Show#x27;.br All in all, a magnificant album with REAL POP TUNES. Dont expect deep and meaningful lyrics, cuz they aint here!brSomething I love about Girls Aloud, is that they dont pretend to write the songs, or produce them or anything like that. They know what they are and they excell in it. br Their music makes people happy, so whats the problem? Dance away, have fun and buy this album. Honestly the best pop album I own. It is very impressive - well done girls - keep it going!brHIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Girls Aloud have Chemistry all right. June 7, 2006

I could not wait to get my hands on the new Girls Aloud album, due to the high quality music that the band has produced on their previous albums. There is only one song on the album that I don't like, 'No Regrets'. However the remaining 12 tracks are superb, expressing Girls Aloud's substantial talent.
br /My favourite songs from Chemistry are 'Watch Me Go', 'Biology', 'It's Magic' and 'Racey Lacey'.
br /This album is a must have in anyones CD collection.

The 3rd album from girls aloud,i had in my christmas sack,if im honest even though i#x27;m a great fan of the group i wasn#x27;t expecting it to match the greatness of #x27;What will the neighbours say.#x27;How wrong could i be...The first track #x27;Models#x27; totally gives the word pop/dance a new meaning by the girls completely inventing their own genre by this song,hopefully being released as a single.#x27;Biology#x27; is a great up tempo song with a catchy chorus again proving the band are growing in ability, strength and popularity by reaching #4 last month.#x27;Wild horses#x27;,#x27;Racey lacey#x27;#x27;Waiting#x27;and #x27;It#x27;s magic#x27; are examples of pure pop dance classics which will have you blasting them from your stereo,all have single release potential.pThe ballads on the album #x27;See the day#x27; and #x27;whole lotta history#x27; prove that the girls can stretch their abilites to slower classics,these relax you with the soft vocals and melodies.#x27;Swinging london town#x27;is such a hard song to put into a catergory,it#x27;s so ahead of it#x27;s time and the pure brilliance of this song i can#x27;t put it into words,my favourite song on the album.pThe other songs possibly the weakest on the album #x27;Long hot summer#x27; which lacks zest although its a nice song to listen to,it doesn#x27;t really click and in my opinion a bad first release for the album.#x27;Watch me go#x27; i think can be put into the same catergory these songs would deserve about 6/10.pso in conclusion the album by far beats it#x27;s two predercessors,full of dance,pop and classic numbers..would recommend to all..ages,boys,girls and grannies!!! soemthing for everyone....Go Girls!!!! Chemistry rocks! BUY IT!

I love this album, although I would be slightly embarassed to admit that to my friends. My musical tastes tend more towards Franz Ferdinand, Kasabian, Editors, Joy Division, New Order, White Rose Movement etc, so this isn#x27;t the sort of thing I would usually go for. But I really can#x27;t praise it enough! The standout tracks are Models, Wild Horses and It#x27;s Magic. If I had to choose some that I might skip past when listening to it they would be Whole Lotta History and Swinging London Town. While they#x27;ve got the up tempo tracks down to an absolute T the slower ones just aren#x27;t as good. I agree with the other reviewer who said that they were all likeable girls, because they are. We know they#x27;re manufactured pop, they know it too and everyone#x27;s all the better for it, and why does it really matter? If you are too much of a musical snob to investigate this album then it#x27;s your loss. Long may they continue.
Pop at its best December 3, 2005

As a 28yr old male, I#x27;m probably the last person Girls Aloud should be appealing to. Hey, I#x27;m more likely to be listening to Van Morrison, David Gray, Foo Fighters or the Rolling Stones but have to admit when Girls Aloud come on the radio I just have to admire their catchy pure pop songs. They are without doubt the best pop group around thesedays and have not made a single bad song (yet). The new single Biology being absolutely fantastic and their best yet.
