you cant compare because those words were written for mutya, amelle just had to do her part, thats like saying michael jackson brought Thriller and someone took his place, of course in your mind you would say the original sounded better common sense . Amelle sounds good on the songs they wrote for her .
Amelle has her own style, but Mutya's voice and personality are more pleasing, Amelle is obviously having a hard time trying to sound like Mutya, she doesn't have to be, but that's what she's doing
Ironically, I felt Jade was a much better vocal range to replace Mutya. I think if jade had replaced Amelle instead of Keisha the story would have been different.
@@jamie1449 the issue with Jade is she is not a middle/lower registered vocalist. It would've been High-Higher-Highest. Amelle,while not quite as strong as Mutya,gave the group a bit of what Mutya left.
I don't think these girls should be compared.. Amelle has similar tone.. but she is original in her own right ,and she sang on one of their biggest songs. "About you now.". so I'm sorry but she has made her mark on the Sugababe scene, esp on Mutyas departure... she brought pure sexiness to the group.. she is not as strong or as good ,however Mutya did her bit.. fair play to Amelle for having to live up to Mutyas standard she set.. Another thought Mutya may not sing the later songs as well as Amelle eg.. from "Change" forward.
@@jackjackson3769 why would Mutya sing any songs after she left? She has enough Sugababes hits and her own stuff to fill a set. Amelle on the other hand couldn't. Given the fact that the third and fourth line ups filled their sets with practically all material from the second line up, half the time they never did About You Now in their sets, it was always the hits prior to that. Even when Keisha was doing solo shows, the Sugababes songs she did was all ones she did with Mutya, she did Overload, not About You Now, or girls.
Mutya is rich and soulful, the most distinctive Sugababe. That comparison is not fair to Amelle, who's also a great singer, but very different voice - lighter and smoother, but also with character. Amelle did great as a last minute replacement, she did blend with other girls, and made it possible for the group to go on when Mutya fled unexpectedly.
The original vocal always wins,whether its Mutya or Amelle originally. Mutya Keisha & Siobhan have amazing harmonies but Mutya Keisha & Heidi I reckon were the best line up.
Debanize I half agree on that. Jade is vocally trained, she has a great voice. BUT Mutya’s tone is something that’s isn’t taught. So for me Mutya over everyone.
To Amelle’s credit, it’s hard to come into such a famous band and she had some big shoes to fill as Mutya has an amazing voice, but i think she did it better than most people could have, y’all should cut her some slack they’re both talented singers
Mutya has definitely better technique to her voice, so her voice sounds live very smooth and relaxed. On the other hand, Amelle is also great performer, but she had to sing Mutya's verses, because she basicaly replaced her. For me, that was the main problem, because her voice is totaly different thing, more raspy and agressive to Mutya, so I think that's the main reason why Amelle didn't sound as good as Mutya. Both of them have different qualities, so there's no need to compare them. Both of them did a pretty god job as the members of Sugababes. Everyone just brought their own style, voice and beauty and everytime it looked different but amazing!
I think there's a couple of songs that suit Amelle's voice more, like Red Dress. But Mutya has such a unique and interesting tone to her voice, she was always my favourite member.
I haven't even watched the video till the end but Mutya. duuuh. All Amelle brought to the table was a sweet and nice tone but she clearly cannot keep up with Mutya souly and mature voice.
Mutya was just natural with it. Amelle always sounded like she was struggling singing Mutya's part but when she did her parts tho she killed it but i also feel alot of these clips were unfair choices against Amelle like her worst performances were chosen. THere are better performances of Amelle nailing Mutya's parts aswell that should've been chosen
I feel like Amelle is an awesome singer when she’s being Amelle. She’s not meant to be Mutya which is why when she tries to replicate Mutya’s vocals it doesn’t right. When she did Red Dress she wasn’t trying to be Mutya and that’s why I feel like she did that song better than her
@@DomincJovon I agree. Amelle was great in About You Now for example. I think she knew it was impossible to replace Mutya. She did her job professionally and gave her best. Mutya is still better than her. I respect both.
@Invisible Emo you're both right and wrong at the same time. It was Mutya's fault for leaving in the middle of the tour however it wasn't because she was in her feelings about anything in particular. Remember she had just given birth to her daughter a week before they shot the push the button video she was a new mom at the time.I think she was just doing what she thought was best for her daughter at the time. The timing couldn't have been worse though
@@DomincJovon Imagine she was sexualized so much in that video when she was pregnant practically the week before..She must have felt horrible doing the video..
Amelle is a cool singer, with a great voice, and distinctive sound. Replacing Mutya was an insane task, but Amelle took the band forward. However, Mutya and Keisha are by far the best Sugababes.
How did Amelle take the band forward? A handful of hits, declining album sales with her and she contributed nothing creatively. She was just there to fill a spot, and she was piss poor at doing it.
@@norijean3279 Amelle did no such thing, could of been anyone. None of them even liked Red Dress (Heidi included). Amelle was a piss poor karaoke replacement, with an average vocal and often poor live. Mutya shits all over her.
They are completely different and unique singers with own qualities and styles!Appreciate both. Both brought something on the table and gave us legendary songs! However I prefer Amelle with her raspy rock voice better. Gotta Be You, Red Dress and Follow Me Home I think those songs suits Amelle better! Remember she was the only one potential singer to replace Mutya. It's not easy to replace an original member even at their biggest peak they had before but she nailed it great...Both are precious and unforgettable parts in one of the greatest grilbands ever. I just hope one day I'll hear them together in one song. That's one of my biggest wish!🖤
No contest MUTYA tone is next level. Her use of vibrato much more controlled and better riffs. Amelle doesn't have a full urban vocal styling that this group is built on.
push the button - mutya hole in the head - mutya overload - mutya/amelle (mutya for the first part and amelle for the second) ugly - mutya too lost in you - mutya caught in a moment - mutya in the middle - both gotta be you - both red dress - amelle follow me home - both
Mutya for sure is a stronger vocalist but Amelle was talented in her own right but thier tones are completely different amelle did her best to carry the sugababes forward and I think sounded better on later tracks when she's wasn't replacing mutyas vocals.
It's hard to compare them....and a bit unfair,too Amelle had her problemes with old Sugababes songs like Round Round or Caught in a Moment because Mutya has a lower voice and she just can't get that low :D But I prefer her in Red Dress, because it's such an Amelle song :D But in new Sugababes songs she sings way better (No Can Do,About You now..)
People give Amelle too much stick, she did the best she could with the voice she had, she wasn't Mutya and that's ok, but she had to do Mutya's parts, so I wish people had just gotten over it, it's not her fault. She may not be Mutya but she was still a capable singer.
Mutya is an incredible singer has an impressive vocal power something that amelle does not have ... We have to bear in mind that with the arrival of her in Sugababes the group changed the musical style a lot because of her style and voice ... For me Mutya is and always will be the best.!
I think what most people seem to forget is that Amelle was trying too hard to sound like a carbon copy of Mutya. They have a similar timbre to their voices. The problem with Amelle was that she didn't HAVE to copy Mutya's style. She could have made Mutya's parts her own and breathed new life into the songs but she just... didn't. She's a very talented singer in her own right but she was acting like she was in a tribute band rather than the official Sugababes.
For the harmonies to work Amelle had to try to match the original keys sung by Mutya who has naturally a much deeper placement in her voice. Comparing Amelle imitating Mutya is a bullshit comparison obviously Mutya will sound better the songs were recorded around her voice. Amelle holds her own on her original songs
Mutya is irreplaceable in the 2.0 songs. But in all fairness to Amelle, she did really well in 3.0 songs like About You Now, Get Sexy and About a girl.
I have to agree with you on this. Mutya even stated before it was released the first time that she wasn’t happy with the song. Mutya praises Amelle’s version
It's a little unfair to draw comparisons as these songs were written with Mutya's voice in mind and here ability to sing the lower parts. Amelle is a good singer, you can see what she can really do when you see her sing the Spotlights and Catfights songs live that she co-writes. Objectively speaking though, Mutya is much more natural, effortless and distinctive. I can't think of one moment where she sings out of tune or makes any mistakes vocally. It's rare that a singer actually sounds better live, but she does, which says a hell of a lot.
Mutya really has one of the best tones I have ever heard so it's nearly impossible to beat her. But ppl really give a hard time to the other one, she actually sounds amazing.
Basically, I love them both and I think they're good at their own singing but if I have to choose one it would be Mutya. Anyway, Amelle slays " Red Dress"
Mutya is one of the most distinctive, recognisable and elite vocals from the UK! No comparison. Even my Brazilian husband, the first time he heard her asked me- who was that singer!
How would mutya sing Amelle songs like. About you now, no can do, change, denial, about a girl. Get sexy. Songs that she recorded in later albums. Her own vocals. Mutya released a lot of these tracks and people will prefer her, Amelle had to replace her, so vocally she not same but similar. They were written for mutya , amelle did what she had to do. Take over the vacant post .. Amelle did well on red dress, vocals were good ,
"Get Sexy" is absolute trash, Mutya would never lower herself to sing such a generic dull repetitive song. Anyway, she would sound amazing singing those other songs as well considering that Amelle, after all, was chosen for her similar husky tone. The difference is that Mutya sounds more distinct, has a more pleasant huskiness to her tone and is a far better singer live with a very consistent and controlled voice.
Tino - wrong, the songs are higher than where mutya is comfortable in her range. She is a better overall singer but these clips show Amelle in a really poor light as they’re lower than her comfortable range which is slightly higher than Mutyas
@@18sean88 Mutya doesn't possess a great range but there's something called "lowering the key in a song", hence why she can face any song of the group in which she didn't sing originally. We're not talking about an enormous difference in terms of octaves, she isn't supposed to sing Keisha's high parts. Moreover in several songs Amelle's role was singing the low notes (Never Gonna Dance Again, Undignified and more) and Mutya can easily replace her in those songs. At the other hand, Amelle paled in comparison with Mutya when she covered her solo parts. She can hit low notes but she lacks Mutya's consistency and tone.
xxxTIN0xxx re-read my comment, Amelle doesn’t have as low as voice so obviously she isn’t going to hit those notes comfortably. The fact she hits “lower” notes in the songs you mention is irrelevant, those notes aren’t as low as mutyas parts in the others songs as they’re in a key for Amelles voice
Mutya for life...Flawless voice, smooth, perfect technique (i think the doesnt even need technique) so...flawless in studio and live, Amelle - not bad...studio ok, not flawless, live - tryhard, weak voice, sometimes off the key
I wouldn't say she sounds awful. When Amelle is being Amelle her voice is great but when she tries to replicate Mutya's vocals it sounds bad. You gotta remember she came in to fill the gap that Mutya left and the Album still had 2 more singles to release when she came into the picture. She was trying to do her best to fill Mutya's spot but when she got her chance to show what she could do (Red Dress) she showed she could hold her own
Mutya and Amelle have a very similar tone of voice, I remember when I was new to Sugababes and wasn't familiar with the line-up changes, I thought they were the same person for a time lol just because they were both brunettes and sounded very similar. Obviously the difference is clear now, Mutya is a powerhouse, but I do think they got the best replacement they could find in Amelle tone-wise
Muyta definitely. Didn't like Amelles vocals at all. I felt like she was trying to hard. 100per cent preferred the original members and as someone said in the comments they just had the more popular songs when Heidi was with them , songs Siobhan would have had if she had stayed with the girls. The original girls sounded so unique together and that was why people liked them. Muyta is absolutely brilliant, there was no replacing her I felt.
So when the song and that part has been made for mutya voice its going to sound alot better than amelle as it wasn't originally recorded for her voice but if you listen to about you now it suits amelle perfect like there song change
I just don't think that Amelle has the control, warmth or depth. And honestly, live, she's kind of flat, and most vowel sounds come out as "ah"s (e.g. in Ugly, you get "stahl" for "style", "ah" for "I"). Not all of them, but more than Mutya does. I feel a bit mean saying it, but she gets a lot of the intervals wrong by a semitone or so. I had wondered if part of the reason she was picked was a slightly similar look to Mutya (olive toned skin, dark hair, large dark eyes) In fairness, if she's trying to sing in a key that's unnatural for her, I can understand it. But I did feel like she struggled with the existing repertoire.
Well, it is not politically correct, but Sugababes were basically the " black girl/white girl/brown girl" trio. When Heidi replaced Sihobhan, you could still think it was a coincidence. Then Amelle came, and despite finding an asian girl they choose a girl not so far physically wise. Pretty obvious in Taller in more ways era, then after Amelle looked less like a Mutya clone. About singing, she indeed had this nasal way of pronouncing I often found pretty unpleasant. But somehow she didn't do SO bad considering they are not a lot of people who can replicate Mutya tone.
Of course no questions ask, I would support and back up my favorite half filipina girl: MUTYA BUENA, one of my favorite singer of sugababes. Love you Mutya, all the way😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Who sing it better? (My opinion) Push the button - Mutya Hole in the head - Both Overload - Amelle for the verse and Mutya for the bridge Ugly - Mutya Too lost in you - Mutya Caught in a moment - Both In the middle - Mutya Gotta be you - Both Red dress - Amelle Follow me home - Amelle Who won? 🥇 Mutya - 8 points 🥈Amelle - 6 points
Amelle has great breathing control, good support, a feeling of forward clarity and lightness in the voice, a healthy tone onset and understanding and having an imaginative picture of the vocal space, and … many years of structured vocal training she is amazing. I really love her tone. Amelle killed her parts. Amelle sang to better, hands down.
@@Right_Direction_ Oh ok... sure. I suppose you're going to tell me that you work in the music industry and you know best. Whenever you watch and listen to Mutya sing live she is all out of breath from all the crack she used to smoke.
Mutya, her voice is so recognizable! Good tone and shows her character
you cant compare because those words were written for mutya, amelle just had to do her part, thats like saying michael jackson brought Thriller and someone took his place, of course in your mind you would say the original sounded better common sense .

The parts are just too low for Amelle. Mutya has a distinctive depth and richness that it’s impossible to replicate. Unless you’re made that way
Absolutely agree x

Amelle is a great mainstream singer, but Mutya gave that London suburban roughness
Unbelievable that this comparison even exists. Mutya’s voice is in a whole different league. The kind that can do a duet with George Michael.

xxxTIN0xxx re-read my comment, Amelle doesn’t have as low as voice so obviously she isn’t going to hit those notes comfortably. The fact she hits “lower” notes in the songs you mention is irrelevant, those notes aren’t as low as mutyas parts in the others songs as they’re in a key for Amelles voice
Mutya for life...Flawless voice, smooth, perfect technique (i think the doesnt even need technique) so...flawless in studio and live, Amelle - not bad...studio ok, not flawless, live - tryhard, weak voice, sometimes off the key
Amelle❤
Amelle has a good voice. Her main problem is that she runs out of breath. So Mutya definitely sang it better.
No one should touch Amelle’s Red Dress. That track suits her perfectly.
Mutya’s is way edgier please.
Unfair comparison because those lines mutya wrote for herself and suits her voice.. amelles singing is fantastic since change album
Mutya in fact ALL THE ORIGINAL members over the replacements I miss them
Mutya is an amazing singer and beats Amelle hands down. I will say though Amelle’s vocals on Change & Sweet 7 are great.
Two completely different voices. Amelle sounds amazing on Sweet 7. On all the old songs I would say only Red Dress Amelle is better than Mutya
I prefer amelles version of follow me home too
Mutya’s red dress is better, STOP.
MUTUA HAS A SPECIAL VOICE
On Follow Me Home I loved Amelle..however I think Mutya is the better vocalist
The way Amelle sings is so coarse.. Is this even a question? She sounds awful. Mutya's voice on the other hand is so smooth and womanly.
Agreed.
I wouldn't say she sounds awful. When Amelle is being Amelle her voice is great but when she tries to replicate Mutya's vocals it sounds bad. You gotta remember she came in to fill the gap that Mutya left and the Album still had 2 more singles to release when she came into the picture. She was trying to do her best to fill Mutya's spot but when she got her chance to show what she could do (Red Dress) she showed she could hold her own
Not "Awful" but she's no Mutya x
Totally agree. Amelle easily the worst live singer, horrible tone, concentrated far too much on her diction so often sounded off and naisily.
_We stan for a deep feminine husky voiced Filipina sugababe singer_
Kuripot Si Talim half
@@alexandrublu2625 yep
mutya, you win great voice
Mutya and Amelle have a very similar tone of voice, I remember when I was new to Sugababes and wasn't familiar with the line-up changes, I thought they were the same person for a time lol just because they were both brunettes and sounded very similar. Obviously the difference is clear now, Mutya is a powerhouse, but I do think they got the best replacement they could find in Amelle tone-wise
This is a practical response. Amelle wasn't Mutya but no one can deny the similarities they had...Unless they're being willfully blind/death.
I say Mutya is better without a doubt. The only song I can honestly say was arguably better with Amelle's vocals was red dress
Mutya. Every. Damn. Time
Mutya all the way!!! #ProudlyPinoy
Muyta definitely. Didn't like Amelles vocals at all. I felt like she was trying to hard. 100per cent preferred the original members and as someone said in the comments they just had the more popular songs when Heidi was with them , songs Siobhan would have had if she had stayed with the girls. The original girls sounded so unique together and that was why people liked them. Muyta is absolutely brilliant, there was no replacing her I felt.
Mutya is consistent. Clear winner.
Mutya has one of my favourite ever voices!!! 🥰
Mutya will always be the best in my eyes, her raspy voice is so distinct, she sings a song you will know exactly who that is
Mutya!!
I love them both a lot actually. I thought Amelle was a Sugababe in her own right.
Mutya........always.
Mutya!! all the way!!!
Both great vocalists its a pity so many are so against Amelle as she was a more than worthy replacement.
Amen!🙏
Nope she wasn't. She was piss poor.
So when the song and that part has been made for mutya voice its going to sound alot better than amelle as it wasn't originally recorded for her voice but if you listen to about you now it suits amelle perfect like there song change
Red dress is best with amelle
Mutya for life
I just don't think that Amelle has the control, warmth or depth. And honestly, live, she's kind of flat, and most vowel sounds come out as "ah"s (e.g. in Ugly, you get "stahl" for "style", "ah" for "I"). Not all of them, but more than Mutya does. I feel a bit mean saying it, but she gets a lot of the intervals wrong by a semitone or so. I had wondered if part of the reason she was picked was a slightly similar look to Mutya (olive toned skin, dark hair, large dark eyes)
In fairness, if she's trying to sing in a key that's unnatural for her, I can understand it. But I did feel like she struggled with the existing repertoire.
Well, it is not politically correct, but Sugababes were basically the " black girl/white girl/brown girl" trio. When Heidi replaced Sihobhan, you could still think it was a coincidence. Then Amelle came, and despite finding an asian girl they choose a girl not so far physically wise. Pretty obvious in Taller in more ways era, then after Amelle looked less like a Mutya clone.
About singing, she indeed had this nasal way of pronouncing I often found pretty unpleasant. But somehow she didn't do SO bad considering they are not a lot of people who can replicate Mutya tone.
Mutyaaaaaaaaaa.... I loveee youuuuuuuuu....
MUTYA!
Amelle’s a good, solid singer, but Mutya’s voice is truly one-of-a-kind, unique and _RICH!_ So powerful and it leaves such an impression. 🙌🏾👄✨
Mutya wins hands down x
Love Mutya hand down
Of course no questions ask, I would support and back up my favorite half filipina girl: MUTYA BUENA, one of my favorite singer of sugababes. Love you Mutya, all the way😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Mutya 1000%

Ugly - Mutya
Too lost in you - Mutya
Caught in a moment - Both
In the middle - Mutya
Gotta be you - Both
Red dress - Amelle
Follow me home - Amelle
Who won?
🥇 Mutya - 8 points
🥈Amelle - 6 points
Amelle has great breathing control, good support, a feeling of forward clarity and lightness in the voice, a healthy tone onset and understanding and having an imaginative picture of the vocal space, and … many years of structured vocal training she is amazing. I really love her tone.
Amelle killed her parts. Amelle sang to better, hands down.
Not live she didn't.
@@Right_Direction_ Oh ok... sure. I suppose you're going to tell me that you work in the music industry and you know best. Whenever you watch and listen to Mutya sing live she is all out of breath from all the crack she used to smoke.
@@247supastar oh ok. Nice to see a nice bit of defamation character there. You clearly have issues. I'll leave you to them.
lol what a bad comparation ...of course MUTYA winns
Mutya is best FOREVER
Mutya's voice is unique 😍
Make a Keisha vs. Jade and Siobhan vs. Heidi
Originals would still win. :D
Agreed, originals
Jade wins.
Jade def
Jade and Heidi will win 100%
Mutya de BEST!!
mutya !
Mutya mutya mutya.
Mutya forever
Mutya💙
