Conflict of Interest Sugaraids

Hello, Sugababes!
You’re looking good, a little different, with more line-up changes than The Fall, but still young, streets ahead of the rest, and worth your weight in modern, effortless, long-standing, top-shelf, greatest-girl-group-since-the-Spice-Girls pop gold.
What’s that?
New single?
Well, that’s some big, hands-aloft stuff. Packed with sounds. Strut, strut.
And twenty seconds in! Brass-bursts!
Excellent.
It’s better than “About You Now,” too, the light garage-rock lead-off bait from the last album — although it remixed well — just as it seems to take some over-the-top cues from both Girls Aloud and Diplo’s Hollertronix, which spells hope for LP number, oh my, six.
Sorry?
It’s lifted from an ad? For a British drugstore?
And Ernie K-Doe’s “Here Come The Girls” from the ’70s?
Damn it.
