GIRLS ALOUD - SOMETHING NEW (video!) + tons of other amazingness!


Today was the most glorious day of the year.  Perfection held a press conference in the form of five women.  That's right, the greatest band in the universe, Girls Aloud, is back.

I'll give you some time to stop shaking and crying.

The girls already graced us mere mortals with the presence of their brilliant comeback single, "Something New" earlier this week.  And today in London, they celebrated the announcement of their upcoming greatest hits collection and new "turr" by answering some questions from journalists and fans.  The questions basically amounted to nothing but, "OMG, WE LOVE YOU, WHAT IS IT LIKE TO BE A DEITY?"  Which is all well and good, but why didn't they select me to ask them whether or not they're ever going to work with Xenomania in their solo careers?  ANSWER ME THAT.  I would die of happiness if there was ever a Cheryl Cole solo album as earthshatteringly amazing as "Crazy Fool".  Or a full album of Slaydine Coyle Xeno-bangers.

But anyway!  They announced their new greatest hits album which is called Ten.  And it includes FOUR NEW SONGS.  You are not prepared.  There are one and two-disc options but really what you want is the deluxe limited edition box set, which includes both CDs, a 2-DVD set of The Passions of Girls Aloud (witness the origin of Push 10!), six beautiful art prints, and the possibility of a golden ticket to win one of ten prizes that will probably give your life new meaning.

  • triple platinum personalised Out Of Control presentation disc
  • A pair of shoes worn by one of the girls in the Something New video
  • A signed, personalised art print of the album sleeve for Ten
  • A phone call from one of the girls
  • @GirlsAloud will follow you on Twitter (LOL!!!!)
  • Tickets plus a meet and greet with the girls at a forthcoming tour date of your choice
  • A piece of clothing from the Girls Aloud archive
  • The complete Girls Aloud back catalogue, signed
  • A signed, personalised and framed photo of the girls
  • A triple platinum personalised Sound Of The Underground presentation disc

Those Nadine shoes are mine, you bastards.

The most important question that was asked was actually the first one.  I don't remember the exact wording because I was still freaking out, but it was something along the lines of, "Are you going to destroy our world again by abandoning us after the tour is over?" and Queen Nadine spoke right up and said something like, "Bless you, sweet child, we haven't made up our brilliant minds yet."  ARGH!!!!!

Oh, and speaking of that "turr", I don't even want to think about it because they aren't coming to America and my whole life is ruined and I'm never eating again, etc.

You can watch each monumental moment of Girls Aloud perfection right here.



And if all that wasn't enough, they also premiered the video for "Something New"!  And it's basically the best thing that's ever happened.  For instance, this happened and I "AWWWWWWWW'ed" until my head fell off.


But you don't have to take my word for it.  You can have your very own heart attack by watching the whole thing yourself!



To sum up the day, this happened:


And I was like:
