Girls Aloud - What Will The Neighbours Say? - 20th anniversary (3CD)

Hot on the rapturously received announcement of a reunion arena tour in 2024, the Girls Aloud catalogue project moves up a gear in earnest with a thorough reappraisal of their second album, ‘What Will The Neighbours Say?’

Scheduled for the first time on vinyl, ‘What Will The Neighbours Say’ will be available as a sky-blue LP on 140grams and as a limited edition D2C exclusive picture disc. Even better, there’s a 3CD deluxe too, containing the original UK version of the album with 14 previously unreleased tracks including (scream!) three Girls Aloud tracks never heard before– all were produced by Xenomania, iand they number the band’s cover of the Chris Isaac classic, ‘Wicked Game’ plus two new songs that didn’t make the final cut, ‘Disco Bunny’ and ‘Baby When You Go’.

There are also classic B-sides such as ‘Androgynous Girls’ and ‘History’, rare TV performance edits of the hits, a sparkling selection of the album’s attendant remixes, and Girls Aloud’s much-loved covers from this era of Blondie’s ‘Hanging On The Telephone’ and Chaka Khan’s ‘I’m Every Woman’.
