I think this will be a third #2 for the girls. Not sure how it will go after that, it is either going to drop like a rock or hang around for a long time. It wont be a middle ground.

I'm still more than confident that Leona will beat them all in the opening week. Anything from then on in, is anybody's really. Pixie will hang around the longest I reckon. Around 14/15 weeks top 40, Leona about 11/12 weeks, and then The Saturdays... Hmmm. I'm guessing 12/13 weeks... Either way, they'll all be decent sellers for respective artists.

 

Chart run predictions:

 

Leona [1-3-9-14-18-29-31-35-36-36-OUT] (Or something similar) Total Sales: 250k

Pixie [4-6-5-5-13-17-18-15-26-29-29-33-35-40-40-OUT] (Or something similar) Total Sales: 270k

The Saturdays [6-7-6-9-15-18-14-19-27-33-36-37-40-OUT] (Or something similar) Total Sales: 210k

 

These are just rough guesses of how I personally imagine the chart runs and sales to look like. :lol:

It's much more appealing than any Saturdays single before and is an amazing feel good song. It will appeal to a wider audience. CapitalFm are loving this track and have played it more than anything today. The fact that they have had more radio plays than Leona is fantastic and is an early indication (Collide also premiered a week earlier)

I can't see this being huge, tbh. I know I said yesterday it could sell 400K, but if Ego/Higher/Up "only" made 300Kish and they were much better, I don't think something like this will be a big seller. Fair enough, other dance/club songs are doing extremely well and most have been huge hits, but this is The Saturdays. They have the worst luck ever.

 

I can see a Missing You style chart run. :(

I think it will carry on their traditional '2nd single' sales run ie it'll be a good seller and follow in the footsteps of Up, Ego and Higher. It's success is too early on to predict right now imo.

Anyone got any concepts for the video?

 

I think as long as they stay away from the 'club' scene they'll be fine. 2 videos in a row being in the club would be awful. However, they could get away with a house party. The girls throwing a house party would be a good concept. As long as there are cut-away shots of them individually with lots of bright backgrounds and wind machines I shall be happy. And a few scenes of the routine would be nice as well, considering they haven't filmed a routine in a video since Missing You.

Well, they've had 2 songs in a row about being in a club so don't hold your breath.

Hopefully the video won't follow the trend of Missing You, Higher and Notorious of them walking around a place (Island, Street and office) and ending up at a party. I'm hoping for a really great storyline kind of video with a dance routine, maybe something like a heist? Don't worry I'm already preparing myself for when this won't happen :P

^The street party during the last chorus of Higher :)

 

My concept would be something like Rihanna's Pon De Replay:

 

The party (or somewhere like that) is boring and slow with mundane songs playing. The girls enter one by one through the door, and go to the DJ decks, push him out the way (making reference to the supposed man bashing the album will provide) , and Vanessa places the multi coloured vinyl of All Fired Up on the decks (possible incentive to entice potenital listeners, and promote the bundle).

The music starts playing, and they show shots of the girls individually, as well as together, showing the routine, as well as the girls livening the party up. Perhaps a love interest between each girl, which represents the lyrics

Rochelle being seductive (make the party, super naughty)

Frankie being flirty (we're so close to the edge of desire)

Mollie being playful (we're all animals so get your claws out)

Vanessa being tempting to the DJ (put my head against the speaker singing blow my mind)

Una being sexy (keep me on your radar...)

 

The end of the video shows the girls walk back out of the party, with a final glance over the shoulder, and a freezeframe, and the logo closing the video

 

What do you think?

Really not sure what direction I want the vid in tbh. They really done the video cliches to death:

- Faux behind the scenes (If This Is Love)

- Simple, with an intricate dance routine (Up)

- Girly soppy vid (Issues)

- Comedy fun vid (Just Can't Get Enough)

- Dancing on a catwalk/dancefloor (Work)

- Girls' having fun (Forever Is Over)

- Big budget 'story behind it' video (Ego)

- Dancing on a beach (Missing You)

- Fun in the city (Higher)

- Office, then turns into fun in the club (Notorious)

 

Brill as all these vids are, I'd like something different for AFU, dunno what though :P I guess muzicmaster15's idea sounds quite cool, I can easily see it being similair to the Notorious, Higher or Work videos though.

I'd quite like a "montage" type video consisting of them behind the scenes, performing on tour, travelling, meeting fans etc (ala Don't Stop The Party).

I would prefer a montage video for a ballad!

Me too, the thing is the only thing that would really suit All Fired Up is another club video, which they've done already :(

Can't see this doing well tbh :mellow: its their worst yet I'm gutted :(
I can see a montage video working quite well actually, cause they're getting 'all fired up' before perfoming. I'd much rather that than a generic club video.

Usually we only get montage videos when the act is 'too busy' to shoot a video and they're trying to flog more singles from the album.

Maybe a single after Christmas would get one, with clips from the AFU tour etc..

It's quite catchy but there's not a lot to it is there? It's really quite lazy tbh.
