“Get Sexy” was carefully crafted to penetrate the American market. The track shamelessly mirrors Lady Gaga’s biggest hits and Black Eyed Peas’ record-breaking “Boom Boom Pow”. As if those references weren’t enough to make of this song a massive hit, the British trio included a witty bridge prone to flood Facebook statuses all around the world: “if I had a dime for every single time these boys stop and stare, I’d be a billionaire”.
Some say that Sugababes lost their sonic identity the moment they lined up with RedOne for their newest single “Get Sexy”. Others think they actually found a better direction than the one taken for 2008’s “Catfights and Spotlights” –widely considered a flop-. Opinions aside, the song is definitely a major turn in their career.
Make your own judgement: get sexy right now.
