Cheap as chips!

It's the new Girls Aloud video:



For those of you who can't do youtube, here's a scene by scene breakdown.

00:00 The girls have upgraded their motorbikes from the Wake Me Up video to sports convertibles. Fame is indeed a harsh mistress, viewers.
00:37 Sarah changes gear. This is clearly unnecessary given that her car is stationary and being filmed against a backdrop.
00:53 It's already quite clear that this video is cheap and tacky.
Plus ca change, eh?
01:21 Cheryl forgets how to face forward.
01:34 Anticipating the band's imminent dissolution, the girls practice their thigh-slapping panto moves.
01:40 But quickly remind us that they are still the industry leaders in hair tossing.
01:48 Crotch shot! How rude.
02:03 - 02:07 This bit is oddly empty and awkward, in a tribute to Harold Pinter.
02:31 Flashing headlights! Did you know that, although this is a polite gesture in the UK, to French drivers it means 'fuck off'?
03:06 Nicola is wearing some highly ill-advised lipstick. I bet it stains her white polo-neck later on.
03:15 The End.

If you missed my earlier post (where were you?!) the song is called Somthing Kinda Oooh, and its out on October 23rd.
