It's been a slightly tumultuous but hugely successful ride to the top for UK superstars The Sugababes. They've lost not one, but two band members since forming in 1998, but have nonetheless achieved three Brit Awards, an ESKA, a slew of chart hits (including four number ones), four well-received LPs and - more recently - an inclusion in the Guinness Book Of Records for 'Best Female Act Of The Century'. Overloaded, their fifth official album, is a Greatest Hits package, bringing together most of their main singles so far. Beginning with their Richard X produced hit "Freak Like Me" (their first number one), the album profiles most of their hits, including all their most addictive moments - such as "Hole In The Head", "Round, Round" and "Push The Button" - but excluding more lukewarm releases like "New Year", "Soul Sound", "Angels With Dirty Faces" and "Follow Me Home". There's some new material too, notably "Easy", the band's lascivious collaboration with Californian rock band Orson, and the catchy "Good To Be Gone", which is slated to be the second single from the album. --Danny McKenna

How could anyone possibly rate this lower than five stars?? (2008-04-10)

I can't think of any reason for why people gives this album three or even one star??? How can you critisize an album which is made up by previous hit singles. After my opinion a Single Collection is never bad, and especially not this. Here are all the favorite Sugababes songs gathered on one cd. Could it get any better?! No, of course not!!Every single track on this cd is splendid; the no 1 hits Push the Button, Hole in the Head, Round,Round, and Freak like Me gives you a good headach. And not too mension the hit ballads Too lost in you, Stronger, and Ugly. And the new and sexy single Easy gives the single collection the final touch.But we must not forget the other top-charts songs that is to find here; Red Dress, In the Middle, Shape, Caught in a Moment, Overload,Run for Cover and Good to be Gone(the second new and groovie song) THIS GREATEST HIT ALBUM IS A MUUSST FOR EVERYONE WHO BREATHS!!!

excellent value for money (2008-02-11)

Sugababes are in my opinion, the best girl band around and have been for many years. They consistantly release great songs. I have always liked the Sugababes' songs but have never bought any of their albums, so when I saw this greatest hits album and recognised many of the track names, I thought it would be good value for money. I can listen to the whole album without skipping over any tracks which is a good sign!

Some great songs. AWFUL SOUND IS TOO LOUD!!!!!!!!! (2007-12-25)

I appreciate I'm in a minority on this, but being a long standing audio buff, I HATE the way these great pop somgs have been ANNIHILATED by the powers that created and mastered this compilation!! My wife knows I like some of the songs on here and surprised me with this as a cheeky Christmas present this morning.Record companies are the scourge of the earth for many recording artistes. They take the raw talent, "style" it to look good on camera, "auto-tune" their voices in the studio so they sound like pitch perfect robots, cream off the profits and then dump these people without ceremony when their success slackens off. Fortunately, the Sugarbabes have had a very long career by pop stars' standards and there seems no sign as yet it'll come to an end.This compilation has some great songs on it, thoughtfully composed and arranged, but as is becoming usual these days, the powers that be have wanted any possible quality in the sound totally squashed up and boosted excessively in volume in the mistaken belief that kids with iPods won't notice! The original versions aren't that good soundwise, but this compilation is FAR worse in sound quality, with the sound pumping up and down in level and loud bits "sat on." GHASTLY!I feel personally that this is an extremely patronising attitude and that the listener (on whatever sound system she or he uses) deserves to hear these songs better than this. Why not put the compression in the players themselves like some in-car CD players do? I feel angry that my reasonable HiFi system sounds little better than our Panasonic Telly (or medium wave radio) when playing these tracks.I wish more listeners would complain as I know I'm not alone in feeling this way. Why else would there be several versions of an Amy Winehouse album, all with different levels of compression on the individual masterings?My advice, Try to get the original CD singles!Recommended for the car only! iPods and decent sound systems deserve better than this!

It's ok but could of been much better (2007-12-09)

I never understood this "we are doing this album as a closure to the time with both Mutya & Siobhan" then A) NOT include some of the earlier singles with Siobhan when they are CLEARLY better than the 2 new tracks in the form of "easy" their worst single ever & a track that never got released as a single.B) Put Amelle on the cover when she had NOTHING to do with any of the songs on there except the 2 new ones, is not only disrespectful to Mutya Buena it is also is to the fans also, not even a picture of her or a simple thank you which is just plain rude.Also a word of warning, if you have their previous 4 amazing albums DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS all the versions on this collection are from those albums, for some reason the radio remixes for songs like "too lost in you" "in the middle" "shape" & "Freak like me" are not here but their album versions which again is a rip off.This was once a great band, & this is a good collection of their singles but to call it a singles collection and not include all the singles is abit of a joke, they have also ruined themselves with their current line-up which will never meet the heights that they once had with Mutya Buena.

The Single Collection... (2007-10-06)

Well I wont say the cd is Rubbish, because it's "Not" I love it and any Sugababes fan will also love it, I bought the Cd just to add to my collection of Sugababe cd's... But if you can, get the Dvd to this Cd the dvd contains all the Videos to the Songs and it's really great... plus ya get to see Siobhan & Muteya... Muteya will be very missed from the Group, but I love her Solo Album too...This Greatest Hits cd is really good especially the song "Good To Be Gone" that is a fantastic song...If you are a Sugababes fan or just love there Music, then get this Cd it's great just to add to the Collection and it has all those Favourite singles that you might have liked, skip the rest of the song's from other albums and just play the Singles alway through...But it now while its cheap...
