On Your Radar will like Wordshaker struggle to pass 100,000. What is a complete bomb, it's a worse result than Wordshaker. I can't believe they've not released a song to the radio yet, how stupid are they though? Sending a song to the radio is really not that hard?

Shame, cause I think Wordshaker and OYR are their best albums. Wordshaker wasn't helped by the fact it got taken off iTunes though. Otherwise it would stand a chance of actually getting to 100,000. tongue.gif

But yeah, they NEED to send a song to radio ASAP if they want to save this album.

If I was in charge, I'd have released it like this:

Single 1: Notorious
Single 2: All Fired Up
Single 3: Wish I Didn't Know (winter single)
--- ALBUM RELEASE ---
Single 4: Faster
Single 5: Last Call

I know a load of songs weren't recorded when Notorious and AFU were released, so that's why I've left them in place as singles as well as the album release. Faster would ideally be used to launch the album, but I feel a ballad would be better for the time of year? MHTO was just a bad choice for single IMO, however good it was.

They only came back off their holidays yesterday!

On another note though, I remember when they went to send Higher to stations, the girls tweeted that they had to actually play the record to several stations in order for them to play it. I don't know if it's like that with every single.

Yeah but while the girls were on their holidays their management should have sent a song to the radio, I think we will have a march release for the single now, which is too late for this campaign and the promotion will be limited due to Una being pregnant. The only thing that can save them is a performance on Dancing On Ice with decent airplay. I still have faith that they will do well. Faster, Do What You Want With Me, Get Ready Get Set, Last Call or The Way You Watch Me MUST be single 4.

The thing is I would have released Notorious and All Fired Up as single 1 and Single 2 just handled their release a bit better and promotion. My Heart Takes Over was actually a decent single choice, poor promotion and poor airplay cost them though but I would have preferred Faster or Last Call for Single 3. Piano ballads seem to do a lot better these days...

She sings in Faster and a few others I think, but you're right, she has a very low profile on the album.

She's got a decent part in Faster, has about 10 seconds in All Fired Up, has about 15 seconds in Notorious, does the "party party.....without you" parts in Promise Me, has a small part in Move On U and I *think* she has a part in White Lies.

She has much less than on previous albums, but solos I can pick out:

All Fired Up (we're so close to the edge of desire)
Notorious (so baby tell me can you get it from my energy)
Faster (the chorus)
The Way You Watch Me (opening)
Do What You Want With Me (before the final chorus, she sings "My love tonight", before Mollie sings "I can't control my love tonight")
Promise Me (not sure of words, but it's the second verse)
Wish I Didn't Know (I've been busy denying)
White Lies?
Last Call (one line. Rochelle sings "And I can't hide", and Frankie sings "from this feeling")
I Say OK?
Move On U?

More than I thought. 11 out of 14 songs. Just MHTO, GRGS and For Myself not on that list.

In 'White Lies', I think that she sings the first 'and I've been fighting dark demons...'. smile.gif

Frankie doesn't sing on DWYWWM, that's Mollie's part only. She doesn't sing on ISO either, but she sings the 'some girls they bite their tongue" part on MOU at the start.

Every label employs somebody called a plugger to take their singles to radio stations and play them to the people who decide on the playlist and basically convince them to play that song. Radio stations don't just google the Saturdays and see if they have a single out soon/currently/on iTunes/whatever, the plugger does that part and the station makes a yes/no decision.

Yup, which I absolutely ADORE! The only ones she has no solos on are For Myself and MHTO. She's got a big bit in GRGS, and Wish I Didn't Know is the song she just steals.
