Girls Aloud To Honour Sarah Harding With Special 20th Anniversary Edition Vinyl Release

In honour of their late bandmate Sarah Harding, Girls Aloud are to release a special 20th anniversary vinyl edition of 'Sound of the Underground'.

This seven inch vinyl is to be released on December 9, and is to include a previously unseen alternative vocal version of the song from the archives, along with a sheet of 'Buy Girls, Buy Boys' stickers. 

5,000 copies of the vinyl are available, while 100% of the proceeds will go towards the Sarah Harding Breast Cancer Appeal, part of the Christie Charitable Fund. The charity was established following Sarah Harding's death. The singer passed away from cancer last September aged 39.
