But then came 'Freak Like Me', an unashamedly great record. "You see??", my friends said, "They're SO much better!" I was starting to fall under the spell. I feel saved. 'Round Round' is the kind of bland, directionless, dull pop record my friends (and probably your friends) are certain that the 'Babes will never sink to.
The off kilter fizz and spark of 'Freak Like Me' and 'Overload' is replaced by conveyor belt song writing, unadventurous production and disappointing vocal performances. Only the drastic, slow tempo middle eight is of any worth, a sober awakening, a cold bolt from the blue, a reminder of just how bland the rest of the song is.

Sugababes - Round Round
However, it's nowhere NEAR as bad as the single by the sisters from All Saints I just saw on TV. *shudder*

Sugababes - Round Round
In fact, the only thing I think lets it down is the "drastic, slow tempo middle eight", which seems completely out of place and unnecessary.
Sugababes have always been a slightly higher class of manufactured pop, which is generally something I hate, but I love this track. I admit I'm a little concerned, but maybe they've just got a decent songwriter on board?
