VIDEO: Walk This Way by Sugababes VS Girls Aloud
Thursday, March 22, 2007
UK girl groups Sugababes and Girls Aloud teamed up in collaboration for a cover of "Walk This Way", which was released on March 12, 2007 as the official single for the 2007 Comic Relief fundraiser across the United Kingdom. The song charted at #1 on March 18, giving Girls Aloud their third British number-one and Sugababes their fifth and first with member Amelle Berrabah. VIDEO: Walk This WayThe music video for "Walk This Way" is a comedic recreation of the Run DMC and Aerosmith video, in which each group attempts to sing the song, but the other begin that part. It begins with the girls in two separate rooms - Girls Aloud equipped with mic stands, Sugababes with a set of record decks and mics. Girls Aloud start the song, to Keisha Buchanan's disgust, prompting wall banging, vase throwing and guitar thumping. Newspapers speculate this will be one of the year's biggest hits due to it being a release from two of the country's biggest acts and being a charity single. Responses to the track were mixed with some people prefering the original version and others loving the new spin on the track. Generally, when DJs & musicians are asked for their opinion on the song, they reply "It doesn't matter what I think, it's for charity" - Scott Mills, prior to playing it on his show for the first time, urged listeners to remember that the song is for charity, and Steven Tyler said the same thing. However, after plugging the single's release, Chris Moyles remarked "Of course, you could just give a fiver to Comic Relief & you wouldn't have to own that."
