Girls Aloud Part 1 - "Popstars: The Rivals" and "Sound of The Underground"

Episode 54,   Feb 14, 2022, 04:00 AM

IT'S ABOUT TIME! Joel and David are finally jumping into one of the UK's greatest pop groups ever. This year marks 20 years of Girls Aloud and your 2000s pop explorers are going all the way back to the beginning with "Popstars: The Rivals", the ITV show that catapulted Cheryl, Nadine, Nicola, Kimberley and Sarah into the national spotlight. 

From the eternally fresh sonics of 'Sound of The Underground', their debut single, it was clear that Girls Aloud were destined for greatness. Working with Xenomania, the girls went on to reshape the British pop landscape with their rule-breaking style - kicking off this era with classics like 'No Good Advice', 'Life Got Cold' and the career-changing hit 'Jump'. 

Your Right Back At Ya! boys also pick their faves from Girls Aloud's debut album, which featured contributions from Swedish pop producers and some surprising names in the writing credits! 

This will be the first of many episodes we'll be doing to celebrate Girls Aloud's incredible impact and career. So, put on your 'Buy Girls, Bye Boys' T-shirts and let's get on with the show!

By the way, keep an eye on our Spotify account for the long-awaited JB1 and DL1 concept albums.
