Tony Mortimer out of East 17 has said that he was unhappy to discover that Girls Aloud had done a cover of his track 'Stay Another Day'. His main objection was that he felt they had given the song a romantic interpretation which is possibly inappropriate, given that the track was written about his brother's suicide.
He said: "I found it really odd they were singing a song about my dead brother. It should've been left alone for a few years. [But] I love Girls Aloud, although I prefer to watch them rather than listen to them. If we ever do a big tour they'd be the first band I'd ask to come on the road with us."
