Sugababes became the most successful British girlbands of the 21st century with six Number One singles, millions of global sales and multiple multi-platinum albums. Along the way they told one of the most spectacular stories of the modern pop era, but it all started in the summer of 2000 with one song, three voices and a mysterious white label 7”. “The first time Overload was played on the radio they announced it as Sugababes, but they didn’t know anything else about us,” remembers Siobhan Donaghy. “They had no idea who was in the band, what we looked like, how old we were. Nothing. It was a mystery: who are these girls?”
Those girls were north-Londoners Siobhan Donaghy (then 16), Mutya Buena and Keisha Buchanan (both 15) and for the last year and a half they’d been working on One Touch, an album whose nonchalant magnetism dragged pop music into the 21st century.

SUGAR BABE was a Japanese band formed in Tokyo, Japan in 1973 and split up in 1976. The original lineup consisted of 山下達郎(Tatsurō Yamashita), 大貫妙子(Taeko Ōnuki), 村松邦男(Kunio Muramatsu), 鰐川己久男(Kikuo Wanikawa) and 野口明彦(Akihiko Noguchi).
Together for a brief three years and just one album, Sugar Babe has become somewhat of a legend in Japanese pop music circles.
