Sugababes 'Easy'

Chart Peak: 8

YouTube

Co-written with Jason and George from Orson, 'Easy' was the trio's first release from The Singles Collection... Prior to its release the 'Babes had sold well over 2 million singles and had 4 UK No.1s as well as selling 5 million albums in their career to date.
I can't say I was aware that Orson had enough good songs to give them out to other people... And hearing this, I'm still not. To be fair to the boys, this isn't bad musically, in a squelchy sort of way, but the lyrics are an awful parade of unconvincing double-entendres ("Where's the mail for my mailbox"? Really?) crooned by the third incarnation of the band in that pouty way that 15-year-old girls think is sexy. The effect is more routine than rousing, and it's hard to believe they could get worse from this point, but they managed it. Mind you, it's not even their worst track on this album.
