Sweet 7 - New Album / Released: 23rd November, Discussion Thread

The Babes were on This Morning a little while ago and Phillip Schofeild said "And you start writing for the seventh album soon," and they replied "Yeah, in January".

Just letting you guys know.

Hm... That's great news, but I still think they should take things a bit slow.

I think its great news. Maybe during January time is when they will be able to work with those top producers. It's looking likely that only 3 singles will be released from this current record.

While I certainly like the idea of getting new Sugababes music every year, it's not going to do much for their success problems they're having right now. These rapid-fire album releasing are risking market saturation and the less successful each single and album is, the more desperate the next single and album is going to seem. I'm not going to say no to a new album next year because I'll take all of the new music they want to give, but personally, I would have preferred that they waited until 2010.

I was under the impression the babes were going to take a break before they started work on anything new?

Seems like plans have changed, unless they take the break halfway through recording then go back to it - judging by the production time, thats another one coming our way October 2009 then. I agree with the above comment, 2010 would of been better.

I'm relieved we should be getting an album 7, but I hope they don't come back to 2010. It's worth them taking them taking their time to make a great record, an incredible comeback, rather than rushing out an album just to try and reverse falling sales only to have it crash and burn again.

Obviously Island have learned absolutly nothing from the flop of C+S. It seems they are fully intent to watch the babes fail again.

Whatever plans they have for 2009 scrap them and take a break. There is just no point getting so ahead of themselves for it to all fall to peices again, and that WILL happen if they continue to rush things.

Sombody needs to stand up and have the courage to tell Island where to go at the moment cause getting eveything "out of the way" is not going to create the album they need to get themselves back in the public interest.

This Morning - Sugababes

Sugababes

Named the most successful all-female act of the 21st century in the UK, the Sugababes are still going strong with their sixth album ‘Catfights and Spotlights’.

The video for the girl's new single, ‘No Can Do,’ shows them riding on a motorbike and in a car, but the modes of transport are slightly different in that they are made of men.

Amelle says; "I got a bit flustered doing the video, it was easy to put your hands in the wrong place, when you were Re-adjusting your position!"

In an interview with BBC, the Sugababes announced they were already planning their seventh studio album. The girls want to work with Gnarls Barkley and already have plans to work with Timbaland.

Keisha said: "The first ever Sugababes album was quite raw and we have always wanted to go back to that - to being a bit dirtier. We all love going to live gigs and kind of touch on it with this album and definitely know in the future what stuff we would like to be doing.”

I think they should take their time with this album.#
And they shouldn't release it too soon after C&S because then there will be no anticipation and excitment for it than if it was a comeback.

they should release their new album around April\May of 2010

great strategy girls

why they don't work with Xenomania again? that formula work before for them, so..

I really hope they go back to Xenomania and Klas.

Having an album with tracks from Klas and Xenomania would be amazing.
But I don't want them to rush the next album and I want them to write on the songs together.
On the other side saying that are going to start in January doesn't necessarily mean that the new album will be released soon. Maybe they will spend much more time on finishing it.

I would be all for a Xeno - babes reunion if Higgins changed his sound and got more with the times of music.

The babes need a more raw sound and his choices of chords and instruments are not doing it anymore on that level. He is a skilled musician, so I am sure he is fully capable of it.
