The mods of each participating AF will be holding national finals in each of their forums over the next month before we all meet up in the Girls Aloud forum for the grand final! We've also decided to select a theme for the contest and that theme is... Should've been a single!I'll keep this thread updated with which forums are currently holding their national finals but in the mean time, here is a list of the AFs currently confirmed to be taking part!
Beyoncé
Britney Spears
Girls Aloud
Justin Timberlake
Katy Perry
Kylie & Dannii Minogue
Lady Gaga
Leona Lewis
Little Mix
Madonna
Miley Cyrus
MKS & Sugababes
One Direction
Pink
Rihanna
Robbie Williams
The Saturdays
Will Young
The other AFs have had invitations to participate, and they are still free to do so!
It's all going to be very exciting and we hope that we can get as many of you to take part not only in the grand final, but visiting each AF to help in selecting their entry!
In case anyone missed it! General thread for discussion of what's happening.
Our national final will be coming in due course, keep an eye out! But for now, chat about what song you'd like picked for our theme: SHOULD'VE BEEN A SINGLE

SURELY 'Walking On Air'??? 
Posted by: Cameron 23rd August 2016, 02:59 PM
Legendary Lovers tho 
(Walking On Air please)
Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 23rd August 2016, 03:36 PM
Peacock, Dressin Up, By The Grace Of God or One Of The Boys!
Posted by: Josh. 23rd August 2016, 03:42 PM
I know already y'all gonna pick Walking On Air but please guys, don't forget about the pop masterpiece that is Hummingbird Heartbeat 
Good shout with OOTB too, Uv! That album has some really strong album tracks but that is my favourite from it, for sure.
Posted by: HarryEzra 23rd August 2016, 03:46 PM
Im going to give Circle The Drain a shout 
Posted by: AdamAloud 23rd August 2016, 03:47 PM
YES JOSH!!
Posted by: Jonjo 23rd August 2016, 03:49 PM
I adore 'Hummingbird Heartbeat', but wasn't that an Australian single? 
Posted by: JosephSpears 23rd August 2016, 03:50 PM
I think it was a radio single or something in Australia, I'd be tempted to let it slide in here! (unlike 1D's More Than This which got a CD single over there)
Posted by: AdamAloud 23rd August 2016, 03:53 PM
Oh Australia can f*** off! Always ruining everything.
Posted by: Tyler 23rd August 2016, 04:13 PM
LEGENDARY LOVERS
Easily her best album track by miles. My favorite song by her, honestly.
Posted by: Joe. 23rd August 2016, 04:34 PM
Hummingbird Heartbeat for me!
Posted by: Ryan. 23rd August 2016, 04:59 PM
Hummingbird Heartbeat or Walking On Air definitely!
Posted by: *Tim 23rd August 2016, 06:33 PM
Hunmingbird heartbeat was an aussie single tho I think
DRESSING UP PLS
Posted by: Joe. 23rd August 2016, 06:33 PM

Okay, good for you being capable of quoting posts and shit 
(I read the thread after I posted, so f*** you)
Posted by: Froot. 23rd August 2016, 06:38 PM
WALKING ON AIR
Posted by: JosephSpears 23rd August 2016, 06:39 PM
Let's all play nicely yeah? 
Hummingbird Heartbeat is being allowed in this case anyway (although we're gonna hold back on our national final for a little bit)!

(I read the thread after I posted, so f*** you)
I was just pointing out the answer to what you'd said

It looked more like a dig at me "being uncapable of reading" sonce there was nothing added, but I guess it was a misunderstanding 🙆🙆

Posted by: Jonjo 23rd August 2016, 09:33 PM

Walking On Air
Posted by: Tyler 24th August 2016, 02:19 AM
WOA is blegh tho.
One of the Boys if it can't be LL, TBH.
Posted by: #00274E 24th August 2016, 12:11 PM
Posted by: Scene 24th August 2016, 12:20 PM
Circle The Drain, Self Inflicted, Pearl.
I feel there's another great album track on OOTB but I can't for the life of me remember its name.
Posted by: liamk97 24th August 2016, 12:29 PM
I feel there's another great album track on OOTB but I can't for the life of me remember its name.
It's 'Lost'.
Posted by: #00274E 24th August 2016, 12:36 PM
that gifs a vote btw x
Posted by: Scene 24th August 2016, 02:51 PM
Nope.
I found it:It seems pretty much forgotten by most (including myself) but listening to it again I want to give it my nomination also.
Posted by: Jonjo 24th August 2016, 03:24 PM
Posted by: Jade 24th August 2016, 05:03 PM
Walking On Air
Legendary Lovers
Who Am I Living For?
Posted by: (Zach) 24th August 2016, 05:08 PM
YES JADE. One of her most underrated.
That, Legendary Lovers, or Ghost.
Posted by: Scene 24th August 2016, 07:32 PM
OMG how did I forget this?
It was only a few weeks ago I was comparing 'Rise' to this! I nominate this also. 
Posted by: Jonjo 24th August 2016, 07:42 PM
WAILF is legit one of my least favourite Katy songs. I really don't see any appeal in it whatsoever! Let alone it being a single..
Posted by: J▲hq 24th August 2016, 08:29 PM
Hang on. YES
"If You Can Afford Me" to win the entire thing <3
Posted by: liamk97 25th August 2016, 12:14 AM
I'll have to have a serious think as to what I think would make a great single and what is just one of my favourites on an album, but I'm definitely liking the sound of 'Walking On Air' and 'One of the Boys' being the leaders (I didn't realise the latter was so adored!).
Oh no I absolutely adore this too! This and 'Lost' are among Katy's most emotional songs; I'm a wreck when I get to this end of the album!
High five! One of her best ever.
It was only a few weeks ago I was comparing 'Rise' to this! I nominate this also. You're so right! It's got that really epic sound with the elongated vocals, it just has a bit more melody to it to give it that extra oomph.
Posted by: Cody Raisman 25th August 2016, 12:21 AM
I don't know what we're gonna do if it's not "Walking On Air" or "Legendary Lovers" (or to a lesser extent "One Of The Boys"/"Dressing Up"/"Pearl")
Posted by: Jonjo 25th August 2016, 01:35 AM
I can't believe there are serious appeals for 'Dressin' Up'! That's about as much of a good single choice as 'Part Of Me' was... i.e. it shouldn't have happened!
Posted by: Serg Mix 25th August 2016, 01:53 AM
Legendary Lovers
Walking On Air
Circle The Drain
her best 3 songs
Posted by: Nick F1 25th August 2016, 09:58 AM
Walking On Air
Legendary Lovers
Posted by: gooddelta 25th August 2016, 10:05 AM
One Of The Boys
Self Inflicted
(I've never bought into Walking On Air or Legendary Lovers much, oops).
Posted by: Scene 25th August 2016, 10:09 AM
You're so right! It's got that really epic sound with the elongated vocals, it just has a bit more melody to it to give it that extra oomph.
I should actually give 'Lost' a listen, I can't remember how it goes.
Thinking of You is my favourite from OOTB - shame it didn't have as much success as IKAG and HNC. I just gave WOA a listen and I don't get the hype. It sounds like an early 90s record that hasn't dated well.
But then I prefer the Pop/Rock Katy.
Posted by: HausofKubrick 25th August 2016, 10:16 PM
DID NOT KNOW ANYONE ELSE LOVED WHO AM I LIVING FOR? Jade / Zach where have you BEEN when i've been fighting this song's corner all these years :'(
As for biggest missed single opportunity it has to be 'Walking On Air' (or failing that 'Hummingbird Heartbeat')
Posted by: JosephStyles 26th September 2016, 10:29 PM

Posted by: Serg Mix 13th December 2016, 02:55 PM
The track that ruined the streak :/
Posted by: Josh. 13th December 2016, 04:46 PM
It's a cute track and one of her most well-liked I think! Hope it does well for us

The Katy mods have decided we're going to send this to AFSC 5 (Live Covers edition) as it got the most mentions in the thread!
Almost like a joint entry from Katy and the upcoming Nicki AF
