"Sound Of The Underground" was released in 2002 as Girls Aloud's debut single, and spent four weeks at the top of the UK Singles Chart.

News of the 20th anniversary fundraising vinyl comes after Girls Aloud's Cheryl Tweedy, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts helped put together a charity gala event in memory of their late bandmate Sarah Harding at The Londoner.

Girls Aloud's 20th anniversary 7" vinyl edition of "Sound Of The Underground" will be released on 9 December, and is available to pre-order now.
