Welcome to the Ultimate Music Video Results. Hopefully everything can go to plan and start at 20:30. I plan to get at least four/five results announced before the end of the day which will be a good accomplishment for me

Whilst you wait, entertain yourself with the UMV 2014 anthem:

WAYWF to flop because the video is so boring

18th Place




Score - 109 points
Average - 4.2

Ouch. Starting this rate we get, yes you got it. Gentleman. No matter how many people came to Gentleman's defense, I think it was safe to say that it was obvious that it was going to be last. Although frankly, myself, this is such a surprise as I would've thought What About Us or WAYWF? would've been last. The overall view towards the video will be shown below in the consensus.

Rotten Satur-rater meter : 42%

(Consensus: Although delivering a new concept to the saturdays' fanbase, the low-budget music video give no justice to this slice of pop/r&b song, showing us cheap thrills and frankly odd storyline)

By Census do you mean Consensus....

The shade in no individual Rochessa shots... Obviously too good for this video and that awful mark. Get it together Buzzjack

No. Not it isn't. Not even close. Never ever did I mean 'consensus'. Not at all.

Ja. Gentleman is too floppy for Rochelle

Posted by: Totto 21st October 2014, 10:14 PM

You see Tim!?

Posted by: Hurricane 21st October 2014, 10:29 PM

I fail to see why people would think 'What About Us' or 'What Are You Waiting For' would come last instead of 'Gentleman'... It's not exactly like there was SO MUCH happening in 'Gentleman' either (or in their other videos as well). I mean, seeing them acting like Housewives isn't exactly different from them sitting by the pool, jumping off a fence, dancing in a karaoke bar or on football field... I don't know, one of the good point of the Gentleman's video was that if was funny and full of "gifable" expressions...but '30 Days' managed to do that, first, much better and secondly, without the really awful effects/green screen.

Posted by: Neil. S 21st October 2014, 10:43 PM

Really? I think everything going on in Gentleman was very Tongue-in-Mouth and made me laugh out loud so many times (Okay maybe not loud as that would be creepy)

Posted by: Hurricane 21st October 2014, 11:05 PM

Well yeah it was tongue-in-cheek and more or less well executed during the first minute or so. It's great until it hits the 'poker scenes' which are so utterly cringe-worthy it makes me turn my head not to watch my favorite popstars in the world do that. They just really didn't pull that one off.

AND THAT SCENE WHEN THEIR MALE VERSIONS OFFER THEM GIFTS. I CANNOT DEAL.

*Yes I'm watching the video as we speak and I'm cringing as never*

THE EFFECTS!

*cries*

Posted by: LoveKiller 22nd October 2014, 12:50 AM

Gentleman was the obvious choice. It's downright embarrassing.

Posted by: April 22nd October 2014, 12:51 AM

Gentleman is like the turdiest of all turds. Everything about it is turdalicious!

Posted by: J⭐M E S 22nd October 2014, 03:55 AM

Am I the only one that loves the video? I think it's meant to look cheap and outrageous! I mean the effects seem cheesy if anything but isn't that the whole feel of the video anyway? It's not far my fave!

Posted by: Hurricane 22nd October 2014, 05:33 AM

Hmmm, it would be if you knew they had budget but chose not to use it and therefore this mean they could have made this to leak cheap and outrageous on purpose...But knowing their past videos and their experience with budget and everything, it just seems like they didn't have the money for the concept and effects they wanted to pull off, so the result turned out that way.

I personally believe the concept was good, or at least, part of it.. This whole 'Housewives' thing they had going on. I know the "male counterpart" sounds good on paper, but they just didn't pull it off. You know it was like, put on a tuxedo, pull back your hair, and try to walk like a man. That's it. It didn't feel like it was supposed to be humor or tongue-in-cheek (that part, I mean). In fact, they really seemed like they thought they were rocking it. In that way, it kinda reminds me of the people who cannot sing to save their lives, but goes on X-Factor and gets utterly shocked when the judges say they can't sing because they genuinely believe they do.
They should have hired male (hot) models and objectify the shit out of them, it wouldn't have made the video worse or anything. Oh, they really should have filmed the video on The Desperate Housewives studio as well...

I, for one, love the song, though.

Anyways, at 17th place...

Posted by: Neil. S 22nd October 2014, 10:21 AM

17th Place








Score - 129 points
Average - 4.9

At 17th, you guessed it again, is If This is Love. This along with issues were apparently not good enough to be made gifable, hence, the still images. Unfortunately, this has been reflected by the reception of the fans themselves. Although beating Gentleman by a landslide, If This Is Love remains the girls' least favorite video to date. Although I genuinely liked the concept, it was a decent start for a debut video.

Rotten Satur-rater meter : 49%

(Consensus: Bursting with personality and a decent enough concept, the video remains a non-event which makes the video more or less forgettable in the minds of the fans.)

If This Is Love isn't that bad. It was good introductory video and concept.

There are GIFS somewhere on Tumblr!

To be fair the first five videos I'd think of would be Higher, Up, Not Giving Up, Notorious and All Fired Up because they're distinctive so yes, this is a bit of a non event in terms of sticking out!

16th Place






Score - 141 points
Average - 5.2

Towards rock bottom of the competition is Issues with an average of 5.2 and 141 points. Issues was originally slated to be 17th in the competition but as the rate went on, Issues began to see some relatively decent numbers. But even this didn't make up for some very low scores. In my view, Issues is very pleasant but like with If This is Love, it remains much of a non-event. The fire burning bit was a cute scene. Nevertheless, for a ballad in their debut, I don't think they would've been able to have a much better video.

Rotten Satur-rater meter : 52%

(Consensus: The Saturdays deliver a different but perfectly pleasant pop/r&b song with a slightly dull and bland video. What makes it a bit decent however are the girls chemistry with one another and the fact that it was a decent video for a first attempt at having a ballad as a single.)

Posted by: Hurricane 22nd October 2014, 09:08 PM

I would have preferred 'Forever Is Over' out before 'Issues' because 'Issues' got a lot more "beautiful/glamour" scenes, but as long as FIO is next, I don't mind.

I feel like this is going in the right way for now.

Posted by: Neil. S 22nd October 2014, 09:09 PM

Let's be real, though. (imo) Forever is Over, the song? 10/10. The video? Eerm, not so much...

Posted by: Totto 22nd October 2014, 09:57 PM

I think the Shopping Window idea is one of their better concepts. It's not totally unique, but it less cliché than their most of their videos. It's really unfortunate that their music isn't really deep, but I'd really like to see more profound videos or a out of the box storyline videos that really captivate or surprise you.

Reminds me of http://youtu.be/MLUvOtqTmYM?t=1m49s iconic moment.


I'm sure he doesn't mind.

15th Place





Score - 142 points
Average - 5.4

Unfortunately for Hurricane, Forever is Over is NOT next! Work surprisingly hits 15th place in the rate, garnering some good strong points but also obtaining a few of those gnarly -1s in the process. This held it back in the long-run and only just edged out Issues by one point I quite like the video myself as its very, I dare say, Fierce, and the sparks of light falling was probably their best idea during their chasing lights era for me. But clearly some people found it a bit boring and a non-event.

Rotten Satur-rater meter : 54%

(Consensus: The Saturdays present their 5th music video with charm and personality like always but the video has aged a lot in the minds of the fans and the concept of being in warehouses has been over-done in the music industry)

To be fair the hair touching is pretty over the top and unforgivable, however it was one of those videos I watched on repeat after it premiered.

They nailed the dancing for once too as well

Posted by: Totto 23rd October 2014, 08:06 PM

Hair touching and posing is their dancing. I watch the dvd with my mum (who was just there) and that was the first thing she noticed in every video.

All Fired Up for top 3, purely because of the Dancing On The Bar $l*t drop.

14th Place







Score - 142 points
Average - 5.8

Unfortunately for Hurricane, Forever is Over is NOT next! Although 30 Days did bump up the competition by booting up to an average 5.8, it wasn't good enough to overtake the other competition in the rate. That's sad because 30 Days remains one of my favorite sats videos so boo you guys I wanna see Hurricane's reaction to Forever is Over getting a decent score I think the main reason people didn't like it was the ... Hmmm.. Why didn't people like this... #AngryNeil #RevengeSeekingNeil

Posted by: Juliano 24th October 2014, 06:36 PM

I don't like the 30 Days video much personally, I feel like it falls flat, I prefer the song.

Forever Is Over has lots going on; the canteen gets a bit samey, for me anyway.

You're rude.



I couldn't agree more.

I did warn you 30 Days wouldn't be #1!

Posted by: Cameron 24th October 2014, 09:21 PM

The 30 Days video is fantastic, people are definitely rating the songs. I don't get the appeal of the Notorious video (watch it be top 3) as I find it pretty boring

Posted by: Hurricane 24th October 2014, 10:15 PM

The first half of 'Notorious' is amazing, the second half not so much.

Posted by: April 24th October 2014, 10:55 PM

30 Days video is so boring and cheaptastic. They could've at least hired some nice Central London diner. Not a cheap place falling apart on the M6.

Posted by: Joe. 24th October 2014, 11:02 PM

LOL


They don't really have any AMAZING videos to be fair. They're all kinda just mildly okayish to kinda maybe goodish. I wouldn't remember any of them if they weren't by my favourite girls. don't shoot me ya'll.

Posted by: LoveKiller 24th October 2014, 11:06 PM

I knew it wasn't actually going to be #1!

I just don't see how videos like Missing You and Up are ranked higher is all. The beach dancing in Missing You as well as the horribly obvious product placement and total lack of storyline make it one of their worst videos for me. I know a lot of people deem Up to be "iconic" but I think it's as basic as they come. It's cool for like the first 10 seconds and then the rest is a snoozefest

Posted by: Hurricane 25th October 2014, 01:39 AM

I just hope 'Forever Is Over' is actually next and that 'Higher' doesn't chart too high.

Posted by: Sean. 25th October 2014, 07:08 AM

Up kinda' put them out there though and the tights are one of the first things raised when people think of The Saturdays - look at the NGU promo on This Morning when they were discussing would the tights be back on tour; 30 Days just doesn't have that stand out - even the artwork. It's a good video (and the song is too), don't get me wrong, but I don't think I'm alone in believing there are better videos.

Posted by: Neil. S 26th October 2014, 11:12 AM

13th Place





Score - 65 points
Average - 6.4

Fortunately for Hurricane, Forever is Over IS next! Forever is over was the surprise for me as I thought it would be right towards the end of the competition with so much hate going towards it. But it recieved at least one 10 and one 11 and a big range of 8s and 7s. This allowed it to surpass even the most positives of expectations. I think the video is a little different to what they have done before which gives it a bit of a bigger edge than their older videos, not to mention Mollie and Frankie look absolutely stunning! But I think most people disliked their look and the fact that not much went on in the video. Forever is over marks the first song to get a ripe tomato in the rotten satur-rater meter with 64% positive.

Rotten Satur-rater meter : 64%

(Consensus: Although lacking in an original concept and being slow-paced, Forever is Over displays beautiful close-ups and a more darker video as introducing a nice edge to their music videos.)

Posted by: Sean. 26th October 2014, 11:57 AM

Yes Forever is Over who gave it those high scores?

Posted by: Neil. S 26th October 2014, 12:37 PM

You did Ultraviolence gave it an 11! DoggySwami, Me, Missing You, April, Yeeeah, Sociopath gave it a 7 or more

Posted by: Sean. 26th October 2014, 12:39 PM

I know I did, it's up in their top videos, but not their best!

Posted by: Hurricane 26th October 2014, 06:04 PM

I just wish the video fit the song a bit more (I needed it to be darker. The concept itself, not just the lighting you know).

I do believe the "Forever" tattoo thing is ICONIC, tho.

12th Place




Score - 166 points
Average - 6.4

I think we all saw this coming and I am not surprised at this getting so low. In my opinion I think some of the higher marks it received was due to the video being so new. As a result I don't think this will be anywhere near the top 15 in the next video rate that happens. What are you waiting for received the 2nd most -1s with 3 but also received a variety of 9s, 10s and a lot of 2s and 1s. This evened out to a 12th position place. What the video does is show the girls as genuinely happy and not faking the happiness portrayed in the video which is what I liked. The problem? All they do in the video is bounce up and down and look like tourists the whole way through. It reminds me a bit of higher in the fact that they're in a brilliant setting but not making much use of it.

Rotten Satur-rater meter : 64%

(Consensus: Beautiful scenery and genuinely pleasant to watch, the girls try their best to deliver a happy and fulfilling video, but is woefully blatant in advertising and the girls simply seem like tourists in a tropical destination)

I think Missing You although basic has a beautiful video with nice choreography! I hope it does well. Disco Loves video is a bit bland, I like the first scene. MHTOs video is very artistic and suits the song so well so I hope it does well too. My favourites are Notorious and Ego.

11th Place





Score - 167 points
Average - 6.4

Quite surprised and genuinely happy that What About Us missed out on a top 10 position (but not by a lot haha). Even I didn't see this coming, but with the third most -1s in the competition (2) and even getting a few 0s, it was no surprise that What About Us' success in the competition was going to be hindered. Missing out on the top 10 by 1 point, What About Us just narrowly escapes a lower position, also being 1 point away from Forever is Over. What won most people over was the brilliant baseball break-in scene and a little more of an interesting concept there and the fact that this was also number one on the TV airplay chart for sometime must mean there was something about it that people appealed to.

Rotten Satur-rater meter : 64%

(Consensus: Some beautiful close-ups and a very appealing end, What About Us delivers some nice memorable moments but this cannot excuse to slow pace and non-event of a video that What About Us results in.)

Score - 168 points
Average - 6.5

Quite the dark horse. One that ridiculously fails in a sats song rate but does pleasantly well in a video rate. The video of JCGE initially reeled me towards the girls in the first place. They all looked full of energy and everything about it was so fun-loving I think the main reason some people had down-graded it was because of the song itself as shown by its scores. It received 2 -1s and a few 4s and 3s and the rest were 6s and above which is great. It reeled in the most 10s and 9s combined for a video out of the top 5 with 4 10s and a further 3 9s.

Rotten Satur-rater meter : 65%

(Consensus: Fun-loving and cartoonish. Just Can't Get Enough delivers charm and enthusiasm which not many girl groups are able to do. Perhaps a bit too goofy from time to time, but it remains a classic saturdays video)

Sad to see 'What About Us' miss the top 10, but understandable I guess.

Just Can't Get Enough is fun and cheesy I guess.

Missing You video needs to go now.

I don't want Up and Higher to be too high either.

I still don't feel this video, although I really did like the dancing white blocks that kept moving up and down like platforms, it was a cute concept. I found everything else a tad bland though, full of personality like usual and nice snappy scenes from time to time. But the green/ sometimes blue background put me off it. The song, everyone can agree, is exceptional pop. It's one of their signature songs up there with Ego, Higher, What About Us and Gentleman

Rotten Satur-rater meter : 66%

(Consensus: Up delivers entertaining CGI with the girls attempting to jump from platform to platform. Snappy moves and full of personality, its flaws can be easily concealed by the positives, although a bit of a non-event from time to time)

Another decent music video by the Saturdays! Personally, I didn't think Missing You would make the top 10 but am thrilled anyways! Missing you was how to do a vacation looking music video right tbh. This time we saw the Saturdays for the first time, not showing their personalities in a loud, happy, sassy way as they usually do. Instead, we get to see the calm, serene and heart-broken side of them. It is a non-event don't get me wrong but it's also a good use of a holiday

I'm glad Just Can't Get Enough made the top 10. I adore the song and the video is so fun and amazing. I remember when I was 8 and a 1/2, the song came on one of the music channels and I loved the song so much that I recorded the video on my old phone

I wish FIO was higher but glad it got that high

We all knew that Disco Love was going to make the top 10, and for good reason too! It's very fun-loving and I think the girls look fantastic in the video too! They seem to genuinely enjoy themselves in the music video and the concept does fit with the song too I think the only place where it falls, and a lot of people will probably agree, that there could have been more dynamics in the song to clearly differentiate each 'era' that is portrayed in the video as we only have the year signs appearing in the video to alert the viewer of what is happening. Other than that, it's a pretty solid music video!

So Hurricane was right, My Heart takes over just misses out on a top 5 at #6. I love the dynamics of the music video personally and it definitely suits the song a lot. To me it's kinda like a more improved version of issues and you have to commend Frankie for filming this even though she was on the verge of getting pneumonia Beautiful and scenic, the video is a good attempt at a ballad video

So starting off the top 5 is Not Giving Up! Definitely on the low-budget end of the spectrum but it uses it it very well! Very well choreographed and visually appealing, Not Giving Up still dissapoints slightly, ever so slightly with its endorsement of the car thing and some untimed choreography: But you can't blame the girls for trying! Believe it or not but Not Giving Up had exactly the same votes as Gentleman for the first 4 voted. OUCH. But it rapidly picked up and managed to sneak past into the top 5!

LOL at this.

- Huge awkward gap between Rochelle and Una
- Frankie looks bored as f*** like "ugh, how much longer do I gotta hold this shit?"
- Rochelle is awkwardly fidgeting about like "oh, it's almost my turn, I better get in position"
- Vanessa looks like she's holding in the toilet
- Mollie is incredible, though

They're just sooooo sloppy. I mean, this video could have been ultra fierce and sexy and almost robotic (if they were in sync) but it just didn't work properly.

I don't need to know what it says because the pictures alone are giving me life. I love the one where they labeled Una "popstar." She truly makes the others look a mess in that scene.

Posted by: Hurricane 3rd November 2014, 07:03 AM

It's complicated. He does say mean things, but it's in a sarcasm kind of way, he would probably say "Chill, I'm just kidding" if you were to snap at him.

I don't need to know what it says because the pictures alone are giving me life. I love the one where they labeled Una "popstar." She truly makes the others look a mess in that scene.

Although, that it isn't quite his point.

He's basically saying that Una is total a show-off and that's only a desperate attempt to seek attention on her and there's no need for that because she's in a girlgroup (so basically, she got four other people with her) and would only make the situation (which he descrbibed as precarious and by situation he means being in a girlgroup) even worse. He then adds "You're not interesting enough to be a solo act, so don't try to show off".

(It is said with a certain humor and to take with a pinch of salt... No one would say such things only based on that moment, but you know, that's the kind of humor he has going on for him... )

Taking a huge leap from Not Giving Up is Higher! Higher exudes happiness as all the girls look fresh, happy and elated in this joyful music video! This was the very video that hatched the iconic Zebra Crossing scene too which probably made it so memorable in the mind of the fans I guess I see where Hurricane comes from aswell since it's not the most exciting video of theirs and as well as a music bias considering this song is very favorable.

We all saw this coming to be honest but I am surprised it didn't go #1 or #2 cause first things first, this video is the best damn thing they have ever done! I love the pink tinge they've put in it, the product placement isn't too obvious and it's all very fierce! It's a bit low-budget but still, they've made it seem glamorous and expensive! One way they could have brought the video to perfectness was if there was more choreography but otherwise a very fantastic video

Notorious has been a bit overrated. It's amazing in its first half, but then it's just a "ohh party!!111" and it doesn't even look like a big party. I can't. But then so is Higher, so whatever.

So it's pretty close for the number one and Ego managed to attain it and go first this rate! I don't think anyone expected this to win considering All Fired Up And Notorious were the clear favorites but even then this feat is massive for a video that is now almost 5 years old! Ego has such a comical concept similar to that of Kickass or Watchmen and this has been really excellently executed in a three-minuted video! Although the Saturdays have managed to release several music videos afterwards, they have all failed to reach the heights of the bar set by Ego in 2009/10
