The Ordinary Boys VS Lady Sovereign - nine2five

On the back of a totally sold out UK tour in March and a second tour just completed in April and May, The Ordinary Boys release a new single. nine2five, a collaboration with good friend Lady Sovereign.

The single came about when the two parties swapped songs to see what they could do with each others' music. The results were so good that both Sovereign's Girls Will Be Girls remix of the Boys' number two hit single and current playground and nightclub anthem Boys Will Be Boys and now the Boys' remix of Sovereign's 2005 Top 30 single 9 to 5 have both found their way to the wider public ear. The result is 2006's nine2five.

2006 has been one hell of a year for The Ordinary Boys already, starting with a sold out London Astoria NME show and then the sold out March tour, described by NME as "proper insanity", which ended in a packed Brixton Astoria where Suggs joined the band for a version of My Girl whilst Will Self watched from the stalls.

Whilst singer Preston is now an old hand at getting stopped in the street by complete strangers for autographs, the band have seen their profile rise exponentially whilst retaining the support of The Ordinary Army, the hardcore fans who were there long before TV shows came into play and who, in the true spirit of the band, have welcomed new fans into the community with open arms.
