Franz Ferdinand Hearts Girls Aloud

FRANZ Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos has spoken about working with Girls Aloud on the track Sound And Vision for the Radio 1 40th anniversary album. He says they were recording the song and Girls Aloud were in the studio next door working on their new album, so we went over and asked them "to do the famous 'doo doo doo doo doo doo' backing vocals". He says the band are fans of Brian Higgins of Xenomania, "We've been interested in Brian for years. His production of Girls Aloud's Wake Me Up first caught my attention. I remember thinking 'What the hell is that? It's amazing'. There was something about their sound which was immediate but dangerous - rare in a girl group. It was really edgy.

Meanwhile Girls Aloud's new single Sexy! No, No, No has reached # 5 on the UK charts this week giving them their 16th consecutive top 10 song. Amazing!
