I don't know what I did when I was young but my ultimate has stayed the same.
00:04
What is your ultimate?
00:05
It's Untouchable.
00:06
I'm gonna cry. I love Untouchable.
00:09
It's just so like ethereal and chill.
00:11
It's like euphoric. It's an absolutely beautiful track.
00:14
What about you, Cheryl?
00:15
I think mine's consistently stayed at The Promise.
00:18
The Promise? Why?

00:57
And it was like the tour was sold out, the album was midweek number one, the single was midweek number one.
01:03
We were nominated for a Brit. It was like everything we ever wanted was there at that time.
01:08
It was the perfect time.
01:10
Everything was going perfect. Nadine, what about you?
01:12
I've always loved Sound of the Underground.
01:14
I love Sound of the Underground.
01:16
But now my favourite is Something New.
01:20
something new was.
