About A Girl

About A Girl is the 2nd single to be released from the Sugababes seventh studio album, Sweet 7. It peaked at #10 in the UK Charts, despite there being hardly any promotion, which was due to Amelle's time away from the band.

Versions
There are two versions of About A Girl, one with Keisha Buchanan's vocals and one with Jade Ewen's vocals. Jade's version was released as the single and on the album Sweet 7. Keisha's version was premiered on BBC Radio One before the released and it was on the leaked promo of Sweet 7 that was released to the media before Keisha's shock exit.

Song Meaning
Like many of the songs from Sweet 7, 'About A Girl' hasn't really got a meaning and is just a feel-good dance track. It's about a girl telling a boy that he doesn't really know anything about her: (You don't know about a girl/I'll take over the world), (Think you can make me fall?/What do you know?)
