And here's the version of No More You from the new Sweet7 album by the Sugababes Tribute Band. It's still a good song - and sung well. But it's now very different. As this wasn't on the leaked sampler of the original, Keisha version of the album, we'll never know exactly how the recorded versions differ.
Sweet7 is shaping up to be an album of great songs - different from the earlier albums but it could have been another Sugababes classic. Jade has a good voice but compared with Keisha it's bland and her singing style much too influenced by X-Factor. I've listened to one or two other of the new tracks and the harmonies lack the depth, the Wow factor we've been used to.
No More You? Yes, no more Keisha, no more Sugababes. What we have instead is a decent girl band lucky to be gifted some good songs.

No More You!
This is great!
In September the Sugababes launched this track at a couple of gigs. I guess it will be on Sweet 7 but sadly it's not on the sampler, which has Keisha rather than Jade.
Amelle was absent during these gigs leaving Keisha and Heidi to perform. The track is mostly Keisha Buchanan and was a magnificent swansong. The recording is the official MSN one and is better quality than the other YouTube versions. Here's hoping it's a sign of what's to come on Keisha's solo album.
* I've now renewed the video clip as quite a few have been deleted from YouTube.
