"'''Girls'''" is a [[Pop music|pop]] song performed by [[United Kingdom|British]] [[girl group]] [[Sugababes]] from their upcoming sixth [[studio album]] ''[[Catfights and Spotlights]]''. The song features an [[interpolation]] of [[Ernie K-Doe]]'s track "Here Comes the Girls".<ref name="popjustice"/> The [[Single (music)|single]] is scheduled to be released on [[6 October]] [[2008]] in the [[United Kingdom]].<ref name="newsingle">[http://www.sugababes.com/site/news/381/new-single-girls "New single - GIRLS"]. Sugababes.com. [[12 August]] [[2008]]. Retrieved [[18 August]] [[2008]].</ref> The single will feature [[remix]]es by Fred Falke, Dennis Christopher and [[Funkerman]].<ref name="newsingle"/> The song is currently A- Listed on the BBC Radio 1 Playlist. |

==Release and reception== |
|||
The single according to the official website was set to go on Digital Download on 29 September and on CD release on 06 October. Contrary to the official statements, the single was available to download via [[iTunes]] a week before, on 20 September. |
|||
[[Popjustice]] wrote that "one of the clever things about the track is that as well as not sounding like anything the Sugababes have done before while simultaneously sounding like a brilliant Sugababes single it also fits in perfectly with the brassy, Ronsonised soul sound of pop in 2008 (well, 2007) but, unlike a lot of stuff cluttering up the music industry at the moment, it doesn't sound like it's trying too hard to pull the sound off - one of the Sugababes' main selling points has always been how effortless their hitmaking seems, and it's a theme that continues with "Girls".<ref name="popjustice"/> |

[[The Guardian]] wrote a less favourable review, saying, "One listen to the Sugababes' new single confirms all my suspicions. They've gone from an out there, edgy pop band to being as predictable as [[Atomic Kitten]]. Girls nicks its trumpets from [[Mark Ronson]], its feminist message from [[Destiny's Child]] and its chorus from a [[Boots Group|Boots]] advert. It's the kind of assembly line, girl-band fodder that has seen them fade into the background while the likes of [[Girls Aloud]] take their place in the world of unpredictable, forward-thinking pop. With their famous conveyor-belt members policy, you might think that they've valued the Sugababes "brand" above any quality control. Where, we asked ourselves at the time, was the Numan splice-up of [[Freak Like Me#Sugababes version|Freak Like Me]], or the poised pop of [[Overload (song)|Overload]]? But by now they seemed more concerned with their range of [[Mattel|Mattel dolls]] and their brand of shoes. Certainly the music that former members [[Mutya Buena]] and [[Siobhán Donaghy|Siobhan Donaghy]] made after their departures from the group, suggests that they took the creative spark with them"<ref>http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/music/2008/08/the_sugababes_does_inter-band_tension_create_the_best_music.html</ref> |
|||
==Music video== |
|||
On the [[28 August]] British newspaper [[Daily Mirror]] posted an article with pictures from the video showing the babes pole dancing in a club like scene."<ref>http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1050272/Sugababes-learn-pole-dancing-sexiest-video-yet.html</ref> The music video for "Girls" premiered on Channel 4 on 6 September 2008 at 11:25. It features the girls pole-dancing in what seems to be an alternative club, focusing more on the other dancers during the chorus and on the girls while singing their verses. During her verses, [[Amelle Berrabah]] engages sensual dance moves with one of the fellow female dancers, making this one of the most provocative videos the girls have ever done. |
