I wouldn't be surprised if N&C start sending songs to West End girls now that Alcazar are out of the picture. Maybe we should have a poll on this...? 8)

It's not a bad idea for the future. These girls produced by PSB FOR THE FUTURE (when they retire), writing songs for them. Continuing with the PSB sound with new faces.

One of them was a member of the former group "Peaches" with had a quite big hit in sweden (for teens) at 2001. the song is called "Rosa Helikopter" - Pink helicopter . I think they were around 13-14 at that time, means 17-18 now?

wow, liked the video. So many petshopposes. PSB should perfom a cameo in the girl's next video.

Besides that, the swedish West End girls website is being updated now more often than the PSB one, so that's cool... :twisted: :lol: :mrgreen:

Right. Except for the part about the West End Girls not being able to sing properly! :wink:

So basically the blonde one does NOTHING in West End Girls, apart from looking bored in the videos. You gotta love that! :lol:

She's carved out a very comfortable niche for herselves. Even Chris have to actually make the music before he can stand in the background looking bored :D

Unless, of course, she's the producer, of which I would say there's a 0,00001% likelihood.

Good production, nice video but when the voices of the girls from TATU were inside, it would be better. And maybe not alone the voices :wink:
This must be the place I waited years to leave

You must be kidding! - That group/song was a complete joke, now I've lost all respect for her :-(
Because you dance to disco, and you don't like rock...

As PSB are hardly the biggest selling act, I can't see how a group covering PSB tunes can be a success. I hope I'm proved wrong!!
