Another song off 3rd Album ?

[Oz]

I THINK I may have found another song from the unreleased 3rd Album.

Stick with me as its a bit convoluted...

According to Wikipedia track 6 of the 3rd album was called "Some Kind of Miricle"

Track 3 of Girls Alouds first album "Sound of the Underground" was a song called "Some Kind of Miracle"

Sound of the Underground was written and produced by Xenomania

Edele worked with Xenomania and in interviews says she wrote songs for amongst others Girls Aloud

I dug out my copy of Sound of the Undergrounds - Edele is credited as a writer of "Some Kind of Miracle" - see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_of_the_Underground_(Girls_Aloud_album)

Coincidence ? possibly but my money is on that song being at least some variant on the track listed on the B*Witched 3rd album if not a pretty close version.

Is this a lost B*Witched track sung by Girls Aloud ?



Anyone notice how musically its similar to Where Will You Go ?

If this was originally destined for the 3rd B*Witched album it would represent a pretty serious maturing lyrically of the group. I commented on another thread that Where Will You Go didn't "feel" like a B*witched song but when put next to this I can see a definate similarity and direction.

Discuss

I meant to also say that I'm not gonna pretend to take the credit for this, I was reading a music forum and someone made a throwaway comment about the two songs and made the Xenomania/Edele connection, I just did some research to see if what was said was right and it was.

Yeah edele wrote that song and one for sugarbabes through xenomania I guess we'd have to ask if they were originally ment to be b*witches songs, but if they were you'd think maybe some of the other girls might have helped write it.

Not necessarily, Hayley. It's possible Edele wrote some songs on her own, as did the others. It's all speculation at this point. I do think, however, given the similarities between B*witched's sound, and the track, itself, that it probably was meant to be on the third album. It sounds more like it belongs on a B*witched album. I like it, but it never really fit well with the rest of Girls Aloud's 'Sound of The Underground'. At least not to me.
The Sugababes song is called Situation's Heavy, for those who don't know/remember.

Haha I've just seen on the B*witched wiki page that it says Edele wrote Some Kind of Miracle and the 3rd album track list is just above that ! I shoulda just looked there, feel a bit silly now ! lol

[Oz]

Theres nothing like song writing credits to cause arguements lol ! Look at first album, songs are credited to B*witched, Ray Hedges and a few others depending on each song. Say there are those 2 plus 2 more credited. This means that the Roylties are split 4 ways meaning "B*witched" get a quarter which they would then have to split between the 4 of them whilst Ray Hedges et al would get a quarter each to themselves ! Very unfair. Look at Awake and Breathe, songs are now credited "Lynch, Lynch, O'Carroll, Armaou, Hedges etc ..." so at last they each actually share the Roaylties equally.

[The Animal]

That is if they get any at all.

If you're interested this is an eye-opening read !!! Just goes to show how weighed against the artist the music industry really is ?!?

Perhaps drop it in to conversation if you get to see them on 16th

Looking at the timing I doubt Situations Heavy was ever intended to be a B*witched song but I'd bet Some Kind of Miracle was, it just seems too much to be a pure coincidence that its the same name as a confirmed song from the 3rd Album - tell Edele we need to know ! ;D

[Oz]

well I've posed the question on their FB page ....... wonder if we'll get an answer

[Hayley]

From the last article I read it suggested edele co wrote those songs with xenomania after b*witched spilt.
