Tangled Up Tour 2008



Not too bad... and it is PAL.
Not too bad, but not great as is the Out of Control tour concert--the sound isn't as well done (mixed; vocals could be cranked up a little more) and the show in general is not as visually entertaining as the Out of Control concert video. In other words, if you are going to buy only one Girls Aloud concert video, I recommend the Out of Control concert live at the O2 instead of this one. Unless you must have the songs featured in this concert instead I suppose... Nevertheless, this is still pretty good, although in hindsight I probably wouldn't have purchased it. But I just had to find out what format this came in to see if it would play on my North American PS3. Doesn't the listing say NTSC, and isn't that what I want? Anyway, the one I received is in PAL format and my PS3 will not play it. My PC will play it though...

The Madcaps Detangled!
I first discovered Girls Aloud several months ago untill recently when I saw them on YouTube. This concert DVD, filmed at London's 02, is something extraordinary. Supporting their "Tangled Up" album, the show offers great performances for nearly 2 hours. It begins with their 'flying' stunt followed by their album's first single, "SEXY! NO NO NO...". On the plus side, the DVD also includes the 3 music videos normally aired on European TV. Just want to assure every American pop fan that this DVD will play on US DVD players, especially portables, despite the PAL format, and it is region-free. When you get the chance, if it's still available, buy it. You'll be amazed!

Tangled Up live is very good but not great!!!
Girls Aloud's 5th DVD release is a gem indeed but it is flawed non the less.
1.) The show opens with a very grand and dramatic "flying in" from the ceiling. The opening is long but worth it as Sexy(no,no,no) begins with Cheryl's now famous auto-tune and BAM! it hits you Nadine's vocals and the dancing are great and a very good way to kick off the show.
2.)Girl Overboard- This is great and the girls are still very high energy.
3.)Sound Of The Underground-Unfortunately this is where things start to taper off a little, and they should not this early in the show and NOT with GA's signiture song. The girls barely dance and sit on thier very toned male dancers and let them do the work. One thing you'll see me complian about for almost this whole DVD is the SOUND QUAILTY and the DUBBING, both of which are the low points on the DVD. The sound for SOTU is terrible you can barely hear them and the music is also too low. Other than that it's ok.
4.)Close to Love- By stark...
