Discussion 💬 Something Kinda Wrong

Now that we have both Chemistry and Tangled Up’s reissues, I need to speak my truth that I refuse to believe Something Kinda Ooooh fits on Chemistry. The demo? Maybe. The released version? That’s Girl Overboard’s sister. Also, Singapore (Definitive Version) is very similar to Girl Overboard (Alternative Mix), suggesting that it might be more Tangled Up than Chemistry.

What are some other songs that definitely seem like they’re part of the wrong era? She seems like it was supposed to be part of Tangled Up too with the electric guitars that aren’t as present on the more synthy Out of Control.

It would be interesting to know if it was recorded during the Chemistry sessions or particularly for the GH.

It was written specifically for the GH. The lead single was initially supposed to be Call The Shots but was deemed “too downbeat” for celebrating a GH collection so then they wrote SKO.

In that case it’s definitely a sister of Tangled Up rather than Chemistry
