A duet between Sean Kingston and Sugababes—well, that sounds good on paper, right? Er, not really. Alas, such a recording was made for the British trio’s delayed album Sweet 7. You can check out the original version of the ‘babes/Kingston collabo “Miss Everything,” featuring since-ousted member Keisha Buchanan, here.
So now that latest Sugababe Jade Ewen has successfully re-recorded all of Buchanan’s vocals for the LP’s March release (in Europe), perhaps there’s a chance “Miss Everything” has a bit more vim and a bit less Sean Kingston? Well, dare to dream—and check out the updated version below.
Sugababes feat. Sean Kingston - Miss Everything
We’re not sure what’s worse here—the rampant Auto-Tuning, the overuse of the word “shorty” or the recylced use of Flo Rida’s “Right Round” backing track.
Actually, the saddest factor is that Sean Kingston not only drowns out the girls on “Miss Everything,” the entire song manages to eradicate any semblance of the trademark “Sugababes sound.”
Chalk this one up to a big Miss Nothing.
I could not agree more. Sugababes have managed to avoid such collaborations in the past. A desperate attempt to crack into the American market! I say, PLEASE leave that market alone if it means killing off your signature sound and being yet another mindless girl group to use an American man to boost your status.
Release 'Thank you for the Heartbreak' and 'Wait for you'. The other two stand-out songs on the album!
It's really sad.. i mean, they all started out edgy.. they have since then watered down…
“Miss Everything” is a pretty good track. Very catchy and very commercial. I think people have just become completely bias due to the split up with Keisha. And the last time I checked, since I am America, I don't remember ANY American girl groups who sound like this? Do you all? 'Cause if you do, please direct me. The only American girl group we have are The Pussycat Dolls and they sound nothing like this, with maybe the exception of two tracks.
If you are a Sugababes fan, which you're probably not, you're probably just an outsider critic who believes whatever is fed to you, you'd know if you went to a Sugababes concert that they don't perform the songs from “Sweet 7″ like they do on the album. It's all acoustic, very Sugababes, like they've always been. Live band, live mic.
I don't know why people are making such a huge deal about this change. NO Sugababes album is identical. Yes their is that “signature” sound of British pop that this album does not carry, but seriously, if you're a real Sugababes fan, you'll know that every Sugababes album is complete different from one another, with the sound and the vibe. The Sugababes never said anything about “cracking” the US market, it was all speculation just 'cause they were signed to Roc Nation. Learn your facts.
