Word Up!

Little Mix recently covered this song for Sport Relief 2014 and I had never heard it until I heard their version.

The song "Word Up!" was a 1986 R&B/Funk song by Cameo.  The song was their first US Top 40 hit and made it to number six on the charts.  It was written by Lawrence Ernest Blackmon & Thomas Michael Jenkins.

I like Little Mix's version because, well, it's Little Mix, and because I honestly think it sounds better with girls?

I don't know why I said that like I'm asking you.

And apparently the charity single Little Mix has recorded will only be released in the UK on March 16 in digital download format and March 17 as a CD single at Sainsbury's.  Lame.

But I want it NOW.
