So we've now had at least one single from all five girls! Threads only premiered earlier today but using your first impressions of that, which song of the five is your favourite? How would you rank them?

(only counting where they were a lead artist, so Heartbreaker and Like U Like are not considered debut singles for Cheryl and Kimberley respectively)

For me, it would be ranked like:

1. Fight For This Love
2. Beat of My Drum
3. Insatiable
4. Threads
-- huge gap --
5. One Day I'll Fly Away

Threads could quite easily overtake Insatiable in time though, we'll see how well it holds up in my affections! One Day I'll Fly Away is obviously very different to the rest and I do actually quite enjoy it for what it is but it hasn't a patch on the other four.

Fight For This Love by quite a distance! *.*

Posted by: Ryan. 6th July 2015, 01:48 PM

My order would be the same as yours Joseph, Fight For This Love and Beat of My Drum are way ahead of the other three!

Nuhdeen >> Nekola >> Cheryl >>>>>>>>Sarah>>>>>>>>>>>>Shrek

1. Beat Of My Drum
2. Insatiable
3. Fight For This Love
4. Threads
5. One Day I'll Have A Career

I can easily see 'Threads' overtaking 'Fight For This Love' in time, I've never been a big fan of that, her other lead singles are much better for me.

Nicola or Nadine.

Posted by: April 6th July 2015, 02:35 PM

None of them can be compared to "Fight For This Love" - it's in a different league.

2. Unsayshable
3. Beat of My Drum
4. One Day I'll Fly Away
5. Threads

'Fight For This Love' trounces everything for me. It's a modern day pop masterpiece!

'Beat Of My Drum' is 'ight. I got tired of it quite quickly though (still a million miles ahead of the other 3 though!)

Posted by: J▲hq 6th July 2015, 02:48 PM

By far and away 'Beat Of My Drum'.

'Fight For This Love' is overrated beyond belief.

Posted by: J▼hnkm 6th July 2015, 03:27 PM

01 Insayshabul (INCREDIBLE)
02 Threads (a solid song)
03 One Day I'll Fly Away (an excellent song, sang by someone who really should know her limits)
04 Fight For This Love (a totally overrated, forgettable piece of nothing)
05 Beat Of My Drum (a poor song, sang by someone who should never be allowed to sing)

Posted by: Acidburn 6th July 2015, 04:02 PM

Obviously Cheryl had the best debut with the brilliant "Fight For This Love" which is still her best song to date. Nicola definitely comes a close second with Beat Of My Drum which was amazing and highly underrated. Never heard Sarah's, but Kimberley and Nadine's were both terrible.

Posted by: Liаm 6th July 2015, 04:02 PM

Fight For Love is in my top 75 or so of all time and is a perfect pop song, I agree there's just no comparison. Beat Of My Drum is very solid too, it's just nothing compared to FFTL, same goes for Insatiable which actually hit #1 on my personal chart Threads is... well, it's better than One Day We'll Fly Away, I'll just say that.

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 6th July 2015, 04:37 PM

Fight for this love easily for me

Posted by: ThePensmith 7th July 2015, 07:49 AM

Going on which has been the Most Played on my iTunes...it's got to be 'Beat of My Drum'. #TeamGinge

Posted by: Sean. 7th July 2015, 08:37 AM

Definitely Nicola. I find FFTL's lyrics annoying and Insatiable is alright but Beat Of My Drum

Posted by: liamk97 7th July 2015, 05:11 PM

Out of those songs, I listen to 'Insatiable' the most. However I've got to say that Cheryl's was by far the best debut single. Overplay killed it for a long time and there's many Cheryl tracks I still listen to more, but certainly at the time, everything about it was perfect: a solid pop classic and a huge middle finger to all the tabloids and critics and the like who were scrutinising every detail about her relationship with Ashley.

I like 'One Day We'll Fly Away' and I'm glad Kimberley pursued music she wanted, but I feel the song is a tad to big for her vocal; 'Beat of My Drum' is good but not at all Nicola's best; and Sarah Harding's single is disappointingly terrible.

1. Fight for This Love
2. Insatiable
3. Beat of My Drum
4. One Day I'll Fly Away
5. Threads

Posted by: Lukuzz 7th July 2015, 08:02 PM

1. Fight For This Love (still one of her best)
2. Insatiable (very close second)
3. Beat Of My Drum (most of her album is leagues ahead of the above 2 songs but not this imo)
4. One Day I'll Fly Away (I have a soft spot for this)
5. Threads (it's a bit of a mess really)

Posted by: ♡ Heezus Froot ♡ 10th July 2015, 03:37 PM

Poor hen Sarah has 0 votes. Even Kim got one.

I must admit I don't listen to either Fight for This Love or Beat of My Drum anymore as they haven't aged very well for me and I was more obsessed with FFTL when it came out, but I have to go for BOMD as it's a bit edgier.

Posted by: barbaric_dan 10th July 2015, 05:02 PM

BOMD has aged great! It still feels as current and quirky as it did 3 (?) years ago?

Posted by: Calum Hood 10th July 2015, 05:05 PM

Cheryl, definitely.

1. Fight For This Love
2. Insatiable
3. Beat of My Drum
4. Threads
5. One Day I'll Fly Away

(not that Kimberley's MESS should even be ranked)

Posted by: Mike Sugafan 11th July 2015, 04:38 AM

1. One Day I'll Fly Away. This song is very underrated. The Radio Edit is just better.
2. Insatiable. A strong and solid song, great chorus.
3. Fight For This Love. Good song.
4. Beat of My Drum. I like this song, but I think she has more great song such as "Porcelain Heart". Shoulda been a lead single.
5. Threads. Not really a fan of it. I just hear noises and something sounds like Britney-Gwen Stefani had ever recorded.

Posted by: Sean. 16th August 2015, 03:35 PM

After sometime I can now rank them properly

1. Beat Of My Drum
2. Insatiable
3. Threads
4. One Day I'll Fly Away
5. Fight For This Love

Posted by: Hayzayy 3rd September 2015, 01:30 PM

Worthy winner

Posted by: mr_pmt 3rd September 2015, 05:40 PM

Cheryl did, even if she's not the best out of them all overall.

Posted by: Cremey 3rd September 2015, 06:07 PM

'Beat of My Drum' is so far ahead of the others for me it's unreal! One of my favourite songs ever.
'Fight For This Love' would be second..the other three are beyond dreadful but I think 'Threads' comfortably takes last place. Painful song.

Posted by: JosephBieber 3rd September 2015, 07:35 PM

Threads never did improve on Insatiable for me in the end lol, I got tired of it quicker than I'd hoped Still better than One Day I'll Fly Away though

Posted by: Atonement 3rd September 2015, 07:47 PM

Insatiable > Threads > Beat of My Drum > Fight for This Love > Mess

Posted by: Umi 3rd September 2015, 11:10 PM

'One Day I'll Fly Away'

Posted by: Hayzayy 4th September 2015, 12:12 PM

It's interesting to see how they all went to different directions in terms of sound.

Posted by: Hide&Seek 2nd July 2017, 05:59 PM

Nicola by miles.

Posted by: Good Old Days 2nd July 2017, 08:43 PM

One Day I'll Fly Away and Threads

Posted by: Slick 2nd July 2017, 09:13 PM

What a silly question. FFTL all the way, everytime, anytime.

Posted by: Jade 3rd July 2017, 01:00 AM

'Fight For This Love' definitely! It is still my favourite Cheryl single.

01. 'Fight For This Love'
02. 'Insatiable'
03. 'Beat Of My Drum'
04. 'Threads'
05. 'One Day I'll Fly Away'

(poor brave 'Threads' having 0 votes in the poll )

Posted by: Andrew. 3rd July 2017, 01:29 AM

01. Insatiable
02. Beat Of My Drum
(Big gap)
3. Threads
4. Fight For This Love

I don't think I've ever even heard Kimberley's One Day I'll Fly Away FFTL has always been way overrated tbh, even back in 2009 I never liked it that much! Insatiable is the pop classic that never was, not in an ironic way either ~
