Sugababes - The Lost Tapes Documentary

[@nabojsa]

them releasing that wrapping paper is the greatest trolling ever lmao

[@hysemblack1716]

"It's a nice thing to know that I still have contact with both of them." On a fundamental level, we have Mutya to thank for getting the original line-up back together. Bless you, girl X

[@jjl6438]

Thank you Mutya

[@P-adam]

Siobhan's voice is everything.

[@AntonandSinan]

It was extremely exciting to watch them reunite in 2013, it was EVEN BETTER to finally see them last year performing live and getting the physical copy of The Lost Tapes! Future is looking good!

[@xandernotharris]

Ah man, watching all this footage from the 2012-2013 MKS era really takes me back to that time and how ecstatic I was for this comeback. Never would have thought it would take 10 years but we got here and the future is looking bright! Thank you so much for making this final documentary 🥹 best of luck in your other endeavours!

[@JosephAcena]

I'd die to go back to those moments. It felt like forever

[@shaggypoo4120]

A literal 10 year hiatus. Granted covid wasn't in the plan but MKS made it through the rainy day and the fans being there through the storm. sorry I had to lol

[@edwardpayne5818]

Flatline is one of my fave singles ever. It’s so beautifully written. It’s everything.

[@Richard-dl9vs]

This video makes me feel emotional. These girls fought so hard as they could. When they dropped the surprise album “The Lost Tapes”, I was so happy because the fans knew how meaningful it is for them. I cross my fingers for them, I hope BMG takes care of their legacy. ❤ Their music is outstanding in the “girl band’s” world. Amazing video, amazing content, love love love ❤️

[@jims6056]

I love all the Sugababes lineups, but the OG is everything!

[@magnetic_electrique]

Brilliant documentary. I was actually at the O2 show in London. I flew all the way out from Chicago for it.

Thank you for wrapping up the sugababes journey ♥

[@paolodecarli5874]

The release of the christmas wrapping paper was the perfect ending for the video 🤣 Loved it!

[@Bataowata]

I love how this documentary feels like a Sequel to the Sweet 7 one lol was definitely a full circle moment. I’m so happy for Keisha getting HER Band back. And shout out to Mutya, she is a real one too. Like her drive and love for the band I feel like cemented their victory. Siobhan is just an Added on Bonus..

[@abc_jv_xyz]

sugababes is mutya and keisha + someone, those two are the soul of the group

[@Rrrichard2711]

I loved this. It filled in some of my knowledge gaps and I thought the little behind the scenes videos were great! Despite Amelle and Heidi praising the original lineup, both Heidi and her mum were quite rude on social media about the girls’ speech at the MOBO awards because she wasn’t mentioned in their thank yous. Keisha seemed fairly upset about this on Twitter as they only had a short time and lots of people to thank and even that was edited down for the broadcast. Heidi’s mum commented that Heidi was part of their success and co-wrote many of them songs. While that’s true, she hasn’t been part of the group for several years now. I wouldn’t remember to thank former work colleagues if I was accepting an award for a current role. The current lineup has always been keen to emphasise the contribution of all former members when asked about the group’s legacy.

[@maritta2504]

Lots of fans can't let it go either and constantly whine about Heidi... Which is probably the reason she acts like this too. Because she feels she has the public support. The comments of her mother however are just completely embarrasing and out of touch. I also don't believe the rumors of 4.0 reuniting to do a "counter tour". Amelle is probably up for it, but never in a million years would Jade do this. This is just the media meddling again, have they not learnt anything...? Edit: and to add... If rumors are too be believed, it's not even safe Heidi contributed much to the song writing. She just always got credited because of their contracts at the time (same for Mutya). It's said she didn't ja had much interest in songwriting after Amelle joined. But... This can't be verified directly (though neither has that many writing credits from Change onwards, that's when their contracts changed).

[@willasmith3303]

They are just amazing , very proud of these three Ladies , looks like they have a super busy summer ahead of them with all their festival shows

[@LS-eo5hg]

I think when they reformed as Mks was one of the happiest moments of my life. I had missed them so much and grieved that loss and when they came back it was like a resurrection. Great documentary. Learned a lot. Always thought there was a good chance id be a sugababe at some point with all that change . Jokes . The originals r the best tho I loved the other girls too

[@iwansteffan]

The amount of work that has gone to this is unbelievable. I hope you know we all appreciate this. Can we have an episode on Geri Halliwell's lost album - Man On The Mountain? Please? 💜

[@popunderrated]

Thank you. No plans for any more docs at this point in time x

[@TrickKeyOne]

This is brilliant! I am so excited for a new album.

[@morvil123]

I was in Tenerife when they released the album so now it always reminds me of being on holiday

[@DaymoJH]

Another brilliant episode !! 👏 Would be a miss of them to not release something around the Glastonbury performance

[@chrisdownie6447]

for me the sugababes was always about keishas voice regardless of lineup

[@ProjectSaffron]

I’ve waited for this video for so long! 🎉 I’ve been a Sugababes fan since Overload, and your documentary series has been great. Have you watched Keisha’s KZbin channel? In some of her earlier videos she discusses how being kicked out the band and media perceptions affected her personally.

[@popunderrated]

I’ve seen a few yeah

[@lazarorenatinho1]

Thanks for doing this amazing documentary ❤

[@giarigi]

You've done a brilliant job of laying out the timeline and just how ridiculous it was that they were prevented from releasing The Lost Tapes for 8-9 years! Great to see so many interview clips and performances, thanks for putting this together!

[@popunderrated]

@@giarigi Thanks for watching

[@CRAIGTEMPLATEXCHRIST]

AMAZING BAND! Love them!

[@pauljohn.zac23]

[@kostakarakashyan]

Some of them are on KZbin!

[@MrDfix1988]

I love that interview with Mutya and Lorraine Kelly. My headcanon is that she was the reason that the originals are back together

[@ahskogen]

Was Freedom released as a single/count as a single when it was cancelled and offered to fans as a free download because of poor sales? That’s why the 8th album was put on hold.

[@nabojsa]

if I remember correctly it was available only on amazon as mp3 download, don't remember if it was free but it flopped so they said it was promo only so it doesn't count. Kinda the same what Girls Aloud did with "Beautiful cause you love me", supposed to be a single but after it flopped it suddenly became "promo only" track lol.

[@Onyx765]

I heard the 8th album supposedly never even got fully finished and that the girls had to fund Freedom themselves lol

[@ahskogen]

@@nabojsa It was up for pre-order on Amazon, but it was removed due to poor sales, and the people who did pre-order received an email with a download link to download it for free. It was never up for sale. Free songs don’t count towards the official charts.

@@ahskogen tnx for the info, I just remember it was on amazon and that it ended up being promo single instead of official chart counting one, but didn't remember how exactly it all went.

I miss the old mutya

[@andreid.8568]

One question that I had for the longest time is: what's Keysha's and Mutya's relationship with Heidi? Was there ever a fallout? They spent a lot more time with her than with Siobhan

[@xandernotharris]

I’d disagree actually. Mutya and Keisha have now spent a collective 15 years working with Siobhan from their debut, MKS and until now. I don’t think they have much of a relationship anymore with Heidi (esp after she sided with Amelle and their management at the time) but I also think they’ve all moved on from it and just have a mutual respect to one another.

[@maritta2504]

Well, a lot has been said in the past 20 years... What's sure is that it was actually Mutya who gave Heidi a hard time when she first joined (Mutya actually confirmed this). I don't think they ever really mended their relationship, nobody ever talks about that one. The biggest fallout between Keisha and Heidi obviously was when Heidi sided with Amelle to get Keisha kicked out of the band and then claimed Keisha was a bully.... Apparently, they have made up some years later. But I don't think those two are on "speaking terms" exactly either. Maybe they send each other christmas cards or whatever, but I doubt they speak to each other regularily otherwise. Heidis recent reactions would suggest that too.

[@andreid.8568]

@@maritta2504 thank you. I had no idea that's how things went down

[@nabojsa]

@@maritta2504 I actually think Mutya an Heidi mended their relationship after that rocky beginning, because I remember Heidi saying in one of the first interviews after Amelle joined that she was disappointed that Mutya never said anything to her about leaving the band because at that point they had closer relationship than Mutya had with Keisha.

[@maritta2504]

@@nabojsa oh really? I must have missed that 🤔. I don't think that they had much contact afterwards though (and I think that Mutya still isn't particularily fond of Heidi 😂)

[@TheDinoKitteh]

So long for now.

[@maritta2504]

Edit to clarify: None of this comes from a place of hate! I am not hating on this video or the effort that has been put into it! But I wish you would have included some more tidbits about the album and the recording sessions... Such as that "Love In Stereo" (one of their best songs from those sessions imo 😣) was aquired and released by Bananarama... Or that they had to re-record some bits of those songs because the original recordings got lost (maybe also partly a reason the album was called "The Lost Tapes"?)... Or that they couldn't clear the sample for Swimming Pools and had to remove it for the release. And that there was a deluxe version with even more songs released on 31st of December 2022.... They also directly claimed we didn't get the album back then because of the leaks. Also, yes, the release of Flatline was very weird, but ultimately it dropped mid-week directly after their performance on Chatty Man, which you also showed here (the performance there was also claimed to be the reason the release was brought forward again). But apart from that, it was a nice watch! ❤

[@popunderrated]

Can’t please everyone I guess lol

[@madmandonna1]

I don't think you understand how long it takes to edit together a video of this length, he also states he can't monetise these videos, so they do it completely for the love of the girl group.

[@maritta2504]

@@madmandonna1 well, that's beside the point imo. I didn't say I hated it, it was a good watch and yes, I am aware how long that must have taken. But for something that wants to be a documentary about the album, it lacked some key facts about the album (which are not that hard to come by because Keisha pretty much said that all in her videos) 🤷🏼‍♀️.

[@popunderrated]

@@maritta2504 I appreciate the feedback. I hope you appreciate how these videos take a lot of my time to create and I tried to make it concise and enjoyable rather than including every minute detail. Sorry you felt it wasn’t as comprehensive as it should be.
