View Full Version : Arctic Monkeys and Girls Aloud
Has anyone heard the rumour that the Arctic Monkeys and Girls Aloud are doing a song together?
Someone mentioned it on my local radio station today?
Does anyone know anything about this..because if it's true then all my respect for the Arctics as a band will totally disappear!

No they did not! They did a cover of it on Radio 1s Live Lounge!
Arctic Monkeys got famous for having the fastest selling debut album in English history! And actually having talent!
IMO Girls Aloud do not have this! :nono:

It's true. They are collaborating on a song. I love the Arctics' version of Love Machine and have it on the Radio 1 Live Lounge cd. I'll try and find a news piece for you.

From The Sun:
POP stars GIRLS ALOUD and the ARCTIC MONKEYS have announced an unlikely collaboration.
The all-boy indie band said they had already recorded a backing track for the all-girl pop group.
Girls Aloud star SARAH HARDING said: “The big tip is we’re going to collaborate... I love these boys.
“They’ve got a strong future ahead of them.”
Arctic Monkeys frontman ALEX TURNER added: “MATT HELDERS - the band’s drummer - and Sarah in Rockford Studios, that’s how it’s going to work. Down in Wales for two weeks."
Matt added: “I’ve got a backing track ready for us. It won’t take two weeks, two days.”
The Arctic Monkeys have already covered Girls Aloud hit song Love Machine, which has become a favourite with some of their fans.
The bands made the announcement backstage at the Shockwaves NME Awards and the full video can be seen at NME.com.
Thanks for that Bazg..I for one am not looking forward to this collabaration!

For god sake Ella. Unclench your butt cheeks and take the stick out of your ass.!!!
I think it will be fun. I doubt if the Monkeys will do anything to embarrass themselves. It's a chance for Girls Aloud to get some cred and some cool fans.

I assure you that Ruthies not my lover but I have to agree with her once again. There's also talk that that some 50 years ol music guru is the actual driving force behind the Monkeys. What do you have to say to that?

Arctic Monkeys :bored: I know they clearly have a lot of fans, but even when I hear their name I feel like I could go on a homicidal assault (A bit exaggerated).
GA are ok, catchy and cheesy - but in no way are they good.
Good luck to them.

Id say you should read this and pipe down in a cheap seat!
This debut album rewards their decision. Such is the depth and quality of Turner's songwriting, it plays like a best of, blasting away any skepticism with an early one-two of "I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor" and "Fake Tales Of San Francisco", before striking more contemplative notes with "Riot Van" (which dissects binge-drunk Britain) and "Mardy Bum" (a forensic exploration of relationship dynamics).
Alex TURNER is the lead singer of the band and does most of the song writing :thumbs2:

I think you need to "chill winstan"
It's only recently that Alex Turner has been admitting to writing the songs, hence the theory that he didn't write them. He claims he didn't take the songwriting acknowledgment because he didn't want people to take the p*ss. Do you believe that? I don't.
It was the lack of a songwriting acknowledgment and the shakespearean reference at the end of 'I bet that you look good on the dance floor' that sparked the rumours. I don't know about you but I don't see Alex Turner reading a lot of Shakespeare let alone reading it and understanding it.
I'm only calling it as I see it, but please retort.
But you said someone else wrote the songs..When the lead singer does! Thats all im correcting you on :tongue:

Lol well I'm right and he's wrong..I just want him to admit it :tongue:
