Talk:Real Girl (song)

"Real Girl" authors

Contrary to the Popworld article that keeps getting cited, Amelle Berrabah is not the sole author of the track. The article is wrong. That much is obvious if you've heard the Lenny Kravitz song "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over". The real authors are Lenny Kravitz, Niara Scarlett, Matt Ward and Dean Gillard. The Popworld article incorrectly paraphrased a piece from the Mirror about it (26 April):

She stormed: "I was really upset when I heard she said I was a clone who copied her voice and her look. It was totally out of order."

This is seems especially unfair to Amelle as, she says, Mutya is using a song she penned on her album Real Girl, out next month.

Amelle said: "I wrote it before I joined Sugababes. I don't think Mutya knows that." D'oh!

The Popworld paraphrase:

Amelle said, 'I was really upset when I heard she said I was a clone who copied her voice and her look. It was totally out of order.'

Amelle may have the last laugh, though, as she went on to explain she actually wrote the song 'Real Girl', which is Mutya's debut solo single.

She said, 'I wrote it before I joined Sugababes. I don't think Mutya knows that.'

The original article implies that Amelle wrote a song, the latter says (incorrectly) that Amelle wrote the song. Perhaps Amelle wrote a song on the album but she certainly did not write "Real Girl". Suga babe 00:26, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
