Indeed it did, and not like a club banger either - hope they play a clip like, on its own without screaming over it! wub.gif

THEY ARE BORING AS F*CK.

I really don't know how they will perform, I doubt they have a strong enough fanbase to be around this time next year tbh.

They're not boring at all, that's part of the appeal of them, they're actually four really bubbly & funny girls - shame we didn't actually get to hear a proper preview without screaming over the top.

I missed the clip, I knew they were on and my foster dad always watches Chatty Man so I asked him to call me when Little Mix were on, so he did - but after the clip sad.gif

It was such a good interview though, they're so fun, bubbly and work well together as a group - I absolutely love them wub.gif

I wasn't listening to the clip, I'll wait until the full song comes out, but I really love these girls, every aspect of them, from their personality (wub.gif) to their music, and it would be lovely to see this be a lasting hit for them rather than a flash-in-the-pan top 10 hit. That would probably be heartbreaking.

At least the single's out comparatively soon.

The clip sounded great from what I could hear of it, something different and not dance-pop! wub.gif

Hang on, old school R&B makes me immediately think StooShe - is the clip similar to them?

Obviously I prefer Little Mix and love them SO much (I like StooShe too) , but I fear StooShe could overshadow them if they're similar sad.gif As Eyes said, just a flash in the pan top 10 hit and <100k selling album would be heartbreaking.

Given that ALL StooShe have so far is one flash in the pan top 10 single, I don't think we need to be TOO worried about them overshadowing anyone. laugh.gif And I doubt it'll be that similar.

True but I can Black Heart sticking around longer and being a much bigger hit, it just depends. Little Mix are obviously female so should manage to avoid the 'male winner curse' but I can't help feeling StooShe will do better. But we can be optimistic and hope there's room for both tongue.gif

The clip didn't sound very Stooshe to me at all, it didn't have that kind of 'retro' vibe that StooShe seems to have from what I could hear so I think there could be room for both? Hopefully anyway.

StooShe are vile. For that reason alone Little Mix have a great advantage.

If you can't even tell you they were FORCED to sing Cannonball, you are hopeless.

In fact, 3 of the girls have been writing songs for years and can play musical instruments. Just because they are put together by the X Factor doesn't mean they are not credible song writers.

And just a side note, the EP is currently at #34 on the iTunes Chart (album). Way to go!


writing for years? they are only babies! I cant imagine they would force cannonball down their throats, they must have said yeah we are happy with that. In seriousness the clip didnt sound too bad, so there i said it laugh.gif now will everyone get off my back pretty please mellow.gif

I hope this goes well for them as this single is usually the one when we find out if the winner of x factor has any chance of survival.

I cant understand Simon Cowell not putting more effort into the winners as it would make x factor more credible, make the show worth watching that bit more, as it stands winning the x factor means little in some ways as nearly all the winners have not had overly great careers and even Leona is starting to struggle.

Hopefully Little Mix releasing earlier than normal (for an x factor winner) will see that those who voted still remember them and also that they aint over shadowed by the new crop of x factor stars. Hopefully wings goes well for them and the follwo up single can get an x factor performace boost.

Believe it or not, that's a fact. Just because they are young it doesn't mean they can't write. They didn't have a say in the winner song, it was CHOSEN for the last 2 finalists, which they happened to be one of them. They did mention a few times in interviews that they didn't want to sing Cannonball because it didn't suit them at all, they were afraid that it might not do good for them. So no they did NOT say "yeah we are happy with that" or whatever because they weren't. And the fact that they hardly sing it in other events and gigs apart from the tour must have told you something already (remember on NTA they sang Don't Let Go). After a whole 8 series of X Factor, people thought you would have already figured out that winners have no say in the winner song choice whatsoever, but clearly you haven't rolleyes.gif .

Their version of 'End Of Time' is BRILLIANT. They're quite possibly the best girl group, vocally/harmony wise since Destiny's Child.

I am back on team Little Mix. Their harmonies are everything. I hope they get their market right, I'm really worried they're being aimed at the Cher Lloyd crowd and the sorts who are like "RT if u rememba wen lil mix wer on x factor". Their sound has the potential to be so much classier and more mature than that. They're the perfect girlgroup really, they've got the vocals and the charm/personality to make them likeable - you don't often get both.

They're just amazing, I agree with Aaron though that they might be shoved down a more 'chavvy' route (IMAGINE if they end up like N-Dubz or something? *shudders*) rather than a classy, R&B vocal group like say En Vogue, which they should be and could be.

I will love them regardless though tbh laugh.gif It's just that they could honestly be MASSIVE if they do the En Vogue thing I think, so much potential!

I don't think they'd quite be at N-Dubz levels, but the styling and the types of fans I notice through their Twitter retweets just makes me think they're going down the Cher Lloyd route. Their team need to aim higher than the impressionable teen girl market (though, really, we should have seen that coming!). They have the talent to appeal to everyone, they just need the image and material to be right.

...and that's why it's such a shame that their second single will be a dodgy choice which will just about scrape the top 10, their third single will be a DISASTROUS choice which will bomb altogether, the clear album highlights will be relegated to bonus tracks and never see the light of day, they'll get a second album produced on a budget of sixteen quid and a JLS flavoured condom, before being dropped and disappearing into obscurity.
