No Can Do
"No Can Do" is a song by English girl group Sugababes from their sixth studio album, ''Catfights and Spotlights'' (2008). It was written by Jason Pebworth and George Astasio of The Invisible Men, Jon Shave and VV Brown, and produced by The Invisible Men in collaboration with Si Hulbert. The song was released in the United Kingdom and Ireland on 19 December 2008 as the album's second and final single. "No Can Do" is a pop song with influences of R&B and soul. It contains a sample of Sweet Charles Sherrell's "Yes It's You", and contains influences of Motown music and songs performed by The Jackson 5.
The song received mixed reviews from critics, who were ambivalent towards its Motown influence. "No Can Do" peaked at number 23 on the UK Singles Chart and is one of the group's lowest-charting singles in the UK. The single also charted on the Danish and Slovakian airplay charts. The music video for "No Can Do" was directed by Marco Puig, and was inspired by a piece of pop created by Allen Jones in the 1960s. It features the group using twenty half-naked men as objects such as cars, motorcycles and bridges. The Sugababes performed the song in November 2008 to promote the release of the New Xbox Experience, and at Ponty's Big Weekend in July 2009.
==Background and release==
Following the release of their fifth studio album, ''Change'' (2007), and the completion of its supporting tour, the Sugababes announced that they would take a year-long break to record their sixth studio album. Despite the announcement, the trio soon began work on the album, titled ''Catfights and Spotlights'', which they eventually recorded within a matter of weeks and in between various festivals.〔 "No Can Do" was co-written and co-produced by The Invisible Men team members Jason Pebworth and George Astasio.〔 The two musicians co-wrote the song in collaboration with Jon Shave and VV Brown, and co-produced it with Si Hulbert.〔 The song was programmed collectively by Hulbert, Shave, Pebworth and Melvin Kuiters, mixed by Jeremy Wheatley and engineered by Dave Palmer.〔 "No Can Do" was recorded at Metropolis Studios in London, England.〔
"No Can Do" was released as the second and final single from ''Catfights and Spotlights''.〔 When Digital Spy questioned group member Keisha Buchanan about her reaction to its release, she responded: "I'm really excited about it. I'm looking forward to people hearing another side to the album. This single has got a kind of Jackson 5 feel to it which I love. The whole album has got a really old-school, laid-back Motown sound, so hopefully 'No Can Do' will get more people interested in the album."〔 "No Can Do" was released as a digital download in the United Kingdom and Ireland on 19 December 2008.〔 The following day, it was made available as a CD single, which consists of three remixes of the track and a cover version of Keane's song "Spiralling".〔
