Never in a million years did I actually expect this decision. Undoubtedly, the inauguration of Barack Obama has rewired our society’s infrastructure to the very core, resulting in change-making decisions the world over has yet to fully realize.

As a result, Girls Aloud‘s third single from the Out of Control era has been officially declared to be: “Untouchable.” Or, as the site so eloquently notes: “Their 21st single ever!”

Yes Muusers, it’s now time to roll out the Aloud’s very first 21st single.

You’ve heard it, you’ve loved it…And now it’s finally hitting the big time! But just how will it perform? I suppose it’s all down to the “Radio Edit” now.

My only request? KEEP NADINE’S MIDDLE-EIGHT AWAY FROM THE DIGITAL EDITING KNIFE. You can take what you will from the moody introduction, but if the middle-eight goes, this song will sink faster than a STEPS solo career.

So let the kerfuffle begin in attempting to shorten the masterpiece down to a radio-friendly three minute slot. Lord knows the fan boys aren’t going to be satisfied with this decision no matter which way the producers slice it down. PopJustice! explained it best in a post that my friend XO fancied yesterday:

At almost seven minutes ‘Untouchable’ is Girls Aloud’s ‘Stairway To Heaven’*, their ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’*. It must exist in its entirety, or not at all.

In other words, it’s time to get a bit “Epic” up in this bitch.
