Customer Rating:      Summary: The girls at there best!! Comment: Having seen Girls Aloud on every tour they have done, I think this was there best one to date, probably due to the fact that the Tangled Up album is soooo amazing!!
From the start when the girls are flying in the air looking like gothic superheroes for Sexy No No No to the very end when they are wearing neon hooded swimsuits and rocking Something Kinda Oooh, it flows so well. We are treated to 5 costume changes, all there best hits and tracks from Tangled Up and amazing choreography.
The ballad section in the middle is lovely, the girls walk over the stairway above the crowd onto a mini stage in the middle of the arena, this was great as it gives people who are never at the front for concerts (like me!!) the chance to see the girls a little closer. There cover of Robyns Every Heartbeat is just lush, it was a definite highlight for me!
My only disappointment about the DVD is that at times they have edited the sound too much, Nadines vocal for Whole Lotta History has been replaced with the studio version, I really cannot understand this as Nadine is the ballad queen so surely this wasn't necessary. Nothing can stop me enjoying this over and over again though, I just hope the girls next tour can live up to this one!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great design Comment: The show itself is not that great, the girls can't really sing live and I can't understand why they really wanna sing Every Heartbeat with the endless (dis)harmony intro. It's really cringe-worthy but not as bad as the unplugged version on a B Side they did.
Anyway, the design of the dvd is really top-notch. This is what the Tangled Up album should have looked like. The front, back, the great booklet, all fantastic pictures, design, colors, fonts....so why stick the album with such a ghastly look?
Every screen of the menu has instrumentals of the album tracks and it makes you really wish they'd release these separately, you really get to appreciate the music that is the background for these great songs.
All in all worth 4 stars, mainly for the extra content which includes all 3 videos for this album's singles and some other ads and backstrage making-of.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Nice video - awful sound Comment: I have 2.0 speakers and the 2.0 sound output of this dvd is really awful with a lot of distortion. The 4.1 is not much better either.
This problem aside, there some vocal audio drop-outs during the vocals, which is from the recording.
The video is pretty good apart from a little too much grain.
The camera work is good too - this is a concert video not a load of crotch close-ups like the last recorded concert. Visually its more polished than their other performances and the outfits arent as whorish as last time.
Other than that there arent any surprises, Nadine is still the best singer, Tweedy needs to put some weight on, Harding is the best live performer and the male dancers still look dumb.
Customer Rating:      Summary: sound like cats Comment: Don't bother to buy this unless you want to hear five cats screaming. None of them can sing
Customer Rating:      Summary: ...one of the best live shows Comment: flawless performance, great extras and girls actually sing live, and they can singn quite well:)
ENJOY AND DANCE ALONG!!!
