On 15th May 2007 Girls Aloud kicked off their ‘Greatest Hits Tour’ summed up by the press as “their raunchiest tour yet!” I went to see Girls Aloud perform their greatest hits down in Wembly, held at the Wembley Arena on Saturday 26th May 2007. Not only did i get aload of merchandise, I had the best tickets in the house - Front row 
The concert kicked off with the 3 supporting acts:
- Natalia
- Misha Williams
- Rogue Traders
Out of those 3 acts I only knew 1…the Rogue Traders and from their songs I only knew 1 but Natalie (Izzy from neighbours) was brilliant live! (despite the fact her dress was that short…well do we wanna go there???)
Then at 9pm the Girls finally came on stage…from the sky and typical me is still looking at the stage expecting them to come out of the side
They kicked off by singing Something Kinda ooh and Wake me up. After a quick chat with the audience it was the boy dancers Vs girls aloud in Walk this way…Sarah and Nicola taking the roles of the Sugababes. During this song Cheryl came to where i was sat…so randomly…cause the people around me just weren’t getting involved so i thought id wave…and to my suprise she waved back…Oh my god…Cheryl waved at me!!!! That was probably the best thing thats happened to me in a long time!!!!!
After this they very quickly got changed … and at this point if anyone was sat around me, you could actually see Sarah taking her clothes off…fair enough they have like a minuite to change their clothes but did she have to do it on stage? - Not that im complaining Once the girls came back on stage, they got the audience to do a mexican wave…and it worked! (Even though the person next to me shouted out “At linkin Park they didnt need to ask the audience to do a mexican wave”) And continued the show with Long hot summer. All 5 girls got a fan to cool them down…cause by the looks of Kim she was sweating for the UK. Then they all got on a sofa that lifted them up into the air and they sang ‘whole lotta history’
Continuing then with 2 exclusive songs sung by Girls Aloud that have been released on albums but not as singles! They were called Graffiti my soul and Real life that were to be released by Girls Aloud in their early music career however never having time to release them.
Usually they sing a song well known to the public however sung by different artists. For example on the “What will the neighbours say” tour they sang Teenage dirtbag by Wheatus and on the “Chemistry” tour they sang I predict a riot by the Kaiser chiefs. On this tour…the Greatest Hits tour they sang Ive had the time of my life from the film Dirty dancing. That had the whole audience singing!
Then the girls sang their original chart hits from late 2002/early 2003 sound of the underground and No good advice. Followed by the girls 3rd single which was a slightly faster version of Life got cold
But the song that got the most reaction by the audience was the children in need song from 2004 I’ll stand by you. At this point everyone was cheering swaying their arms in the air!
Then the set changed to a casino as they sang a slow version of Tiffany’s classic I think we’re alone now. Then a brand new track…and the only track from their greatest hits album that hasn’t been released was the song called Money.
Followed by the song that had everyone dancing…LOVE MACHINE!
After this all the curtains closed as the girls changed into dressing robes, and everyone in the Arena had a massive countown to welcome them back on…and the show continued with The show. In this song the girls were on the stage in bed…and then each girl had a man in bed with them…to say that my radio show is a family programme and the odds are kids are on here we betta leave that there
And final song was … Biology.
Yes all 5 Girls sang live. People do say I must really like them to actually go and see them in concert because ive never ever been to a concert in my life and the fact that it’s a massive bang like Girls Aloud makes it better that they were the first people I ever saw in concert and it was the best experience of my life!
Girls Aloud today…
Still rumored by the press Girls Aloud are splitting up after the tour as its named “The Greatest Hits Tour” however with a new single being released in September 2007 and a new album in October 2007 (Which Sarah keeps saying theres no covers on the album) and their band new 1 year deal with sunsilk hair products…I think they’re going to be around for some time!
