Well at least she says that 'The Way You Watch Me' is not for definite. I seriously hope they change their minds. Terrible single choice.

I love WIDK aswell, one of my favourites. Mollie totally owns that song.
Move On U isn't all that bad. I prefer it to I Say OK, For Myself and Promise Me. |

So I was listening to the album AGAIN and I did not skip one single song. Love it all, a lot of them have such great hooks.

My only criticism of the record is that it sounds a bit mashed together, and each track has very similar elements. It unfortunately makes each song seem to sound the same on each listen and overall it leaves me in a bit of a blurr, but you can't deny it's not consistent because on a more positive note the album is their best yet.
I also like the fact that they have embraced the fact that 'Wish I Didn't Know' could have belonged on their debut and does sound a bit 90's as they've gone with that sort of theme for the song on tour (The record with 'Wish I Didn't Know' playing on the vinyl in the background and the mic stands). Promise Me and I Say OK are still not sitting right with me though; but it's funny how Promise Me is the one song that is always stuck in my head, more than any other track on the album. The hook "You promise me me me the the the world" just replays over and over again. Irritating as hell as it's my joint least favourite on the album. The album is still brilliant and I'm still listening to it all the way through though. This best not age fast. |

So I've seen this on a forum, but I don't know if the user got it on the mailer or if it's just fake...apparently they 'confirm' the trip to America?

The girls themselves have announced they've been in contact with American management though? It was also confirmed over 6months ago Ne-Yo wanted to sign The Saturdays to his American label.
I think The Saturdays should release single 4 go on attempt to break Europe and America (of course minus una) while recording new material, maybe come back and release a new single in October? I know The Saturdays have massive things planned as they are only allowed a 3 day break during the Christmas holiday which is quite poor. Example yesterday said The Saturdays have potential they need better material and better management/label. I do agree so much for once with what he says (The management). I know Polydor will not drop them as their tour has been a success but if they moved on to another label & management I wouldn't be too sad. Arguably had they had an arena tour last year it would have sold more as They hadn't toured for 2 years previously before the headline tour but there's no way their label would have chanced that. At least they have established themselves as Arena tour performers. Notorious released during Britain's Got Talent. All Fired Up released during Red Or Black My Heart Takes Over released during xFactor. This post has been edited by lee wallace: 8th December 2011, 03:07 PM |

(sorry for taking this back off topic a bit)
I think we can safely say there's no way they're getting dropped now. Yeah, their album sales are dreadful and their singles are very hit and miss but so far their arena tour looks like it's done much better than we all thought it would have, and touring is MUCH more important than sales. |

Touring also makes no money for the record company I believe...

You need a healthy balance of both really.

I think the Saturdays' label double as their management or something confusing like that so they do make some money from the tour, although it's not like this tour is a sell-out so it won't be that much. I can't believe people think they should attempt to 'break America' or even Europe. They haven't even broken the UK!!! |

Touring might not make the record label any/much money but it's still a sign that there IS an audience there who will pay money to support The Sats. I've never heard of an act being dropped after a succesful arena tour. Touring is a building process, they should tour as much as they can to build up a solid fanbase.
