Album Details With "Chemistry" Sarah, Nicola, Nadine, Kimberley and Cheryl have Made a Quirky British Pop Album. In a Genre Where Girl Bands Dream of Being Destiny¿s Vogue, Girls Aloud have Made an Album that Reflects What It¿s Like to Be a 20-something Girl Living in the UK. There's Attitude ("Models") There's Heartbreak ("Whole Lotta History") and There's Sauciness ("Watch Me Go"). Make No Mistake this is a 24-carot Solid Gold Pop Album but Thrown Into the Mix Are Snatches of Rock, House, Electro, Salsa, Rap and Ska. The Album Has Been Made by Breaking the Rules on What You Can Do with Pop. Who Said You Can't have Two Choruses in One Song Or Three Different Sounds in Another?

Chemistry is right !! January 21, 2010 B. Wade (NY, USA) Girls Aloud is a UK Pop girl group created on a T.V. show. That may sound bad but they aren't GA have managed to stick around for 8 years now. This album is one of the reasons why.
1.) Intro- Ok but a little silly to me.
2.) Models- Quirky and cool.
3.) Biology- One of GA's biggest hits to this day listen and you'll know why.
4.)Wild Horses- Another quirky one but funkier to me than Models.
5.) See The Day- A cover and a sleek well prouduced one at that.
6.) Watch Me Go- BEST SONG ON THE ALBUM!!! Funky, very well produced, Sexy, Sleek a real GEM!(IMO)
7.) Waiting- Maybe the second best song on the album a funky 60's Mowtown vibe to it very nice.
8.) Whole Lotta History- A little slow at first but Nicola'a performance is GREAT!
9.) Long Hot Summer- My least fav. on the album but stll very good.
10.)Swinging London Town- Is an OK song but not the best.
11.) It's Magic- Another nice one.
12.)No Regrets- not a #1 bagger but alright.
13.) Racy Lacey- Same Plot as "Watch Me go" but a little more tongue in cheek very cute song. Over All Chemistry is the right word for this as GA has tons of it.

End thoughts: Strong outing by the Girls, every song in one way or another is done perfectly, whether it is a ballad, mid tempo or upbeat track. Nothing misses the mark. No disappointment here.
Great album August 22, 2008 Stephen S. Tyler (Camano Island, WA, USA) Girls Aloud Third Studio album that was release 2005. This album is the greatest. Biology, See The Day, Long Hot Summer, and Whole Lotta History are such great songs, but the whole album is still good to hear no matter what. Its a buyer if you like pop music. You won't be dissappointed.
The Christmas album is brilliant March 22, 2008 Weather Warden <3 (Auckland, NZ) Chemistry as an album is great on it's own. Add the 2nd Christmas bonus disc and the album becomes even better.
I've already reviewed the main album, but here is a quick bit about it: It's GA's 2nd best album now, full of quirky upbeat songs and a couple of great ballads. Best songs include "See The Day" (gorgeous ballad), "Watch Me Go" (an amazing upbeat track with a rap from Cheryl), "Swinging London Town" (a really dark, creative dance track) and "Racey Lacey" (a very risque little number about a promiscious girl).
But the focus of this review is the Christmas bonus disc. Half of it is well known covers and half are the girls' original songs. Both are equally good.
The best song on the bonus disc is "Count The Days." This is one of the original tracks and it's gorgeous. A song about wanting a lover to come home for Christmas, all the girls sing and Nadine leads the amazing chorus. I love this song.
The other original songs are all upbeat - "Christmas Round At Ours" is a funny little track about a family Christmas, "Not Tonight Santa" is a naughty song about wanting a boyfriend for Christmas and "I Wanna Kiss You So" is a fun song about kissing someone under the mistletoe.
My favourite of the covers is "White Christmas." It's been covered a million times, but GA's version is just beautiful. It's simple with amazing vocals from the girls and cute music.
The other covers are "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday" - the girls all share the vocals and it's fun to sing along to, "Jingle Bell Rock" - this song is only a minute and a half long but stays true to the original, cute and catchy and "Merry Christmas Everybody" - sung by all the girls as a group, another catchy one.
Overall, all of the Christmas songs are great and this bonus disc is a great addition to the already brilliant Chemistry. 5 stars.
(PS: This version has a great cover, much better then the original)
Fabulous! Period. January 28, 2008 TinaTee One of my all time favorite bands. These girls know how to rock. Maybe I am biased because I love all of their albums. They can do no wrong. I don't know of one song I dislike. If I was forced to make a choice of one group to have and listen to the rest of my life Girls Aloud would be it. Over and over and over ...
