The song "Something New" by Girls Aloud is an upbeat and empowering song that celebrates female empowerment. It starts with the girls announcing that they are taking control and running the show. They don't want to talk; they just want to dance and have a good time. The chorus is catchy and repeatedly asserts that the girls are going to run the show. The verses speak about the girls' confidence and resilience. They are not going to give up even during tough times. They also talk about breaking free and feeling liberated when dancing.
The song, written by Xenomania, was released in 2012 and was written for Girls Aloud's tenth-anniversary celebration. The band was on hiatus at the time, and this was their comeback single. The song opens up with the sound of an iPhone unlocking, after which you hear the famous Girls Aloud phrase "Go Girls, G-G-Go." This phrase has become a part of pop culture and is still referenced today. "Something New" achieved chart success, peaking at number 2 in the UK and was certified Silver.

I have always wondered why Girls Aloud wasn't more popular. Their music was awesome and the girls was incredible good looking.

@ZZLOST
They were well known in Hungary as well, but the Sugababes were the favorites of the Hungarians.
@serenaistheb.o.a.t
They were know around the world, but they were criminally underrated. Billboard actually called them the most underrated band in music history.
@randybanks1504
Serena is the G.O.A.T where? Because America doesn't know a girls aloud
