January 17, 201213 yr I doubt a single will be released from this album till after March since Rochelle is getting maried in March and Una is due on March too! hmmm may not be worth it then, cause April is way to late to follow up a single that went to radio in September.
January 18, 201213 yr There's no actual confirmation for Rochelle getting married in March other than gossip mags, which are usually just that... gossip.
January 18, 201213 yr Yeah I really doubt she's getting maried that soon. Aren't JLS touring around that time as well? Also, with Una's birth, do you think Rochelle would want to married in the same month as well? Oh but if what the mags say are true, then Rochelle and Una are each other's maids of honor or something like that. I don't see Una being able to be 'up and out' in March, LOL.
January 19, 201213 yr If they can't even chart in the top 200 NOW, when sales are pitiful, there really is no hope.
January 19, 201213 yr Not good. Well, it's not not good, it's bloody disastrous. :( But on a lighter note, the girls are recording with Xenomania at the moment. Brian Higgins was doing a webchat and announced they're in the studio at the minute. :D Very happy they're back working with them! Call The Shots/Girl Overboard/The Promise/Loving Kind/Untouchable part 2 please. :P Edited January 19, 201213 yr by Encore
January 19, 201213 yr That's funny you should mention Xenomania, because when Mollie took a picture of her car on the drive a day or two ago I thought It looked like the front of Xenomania Studios :lol:
January 19, 201213 yr Wordshaker also sold well because of their promotion. Ego release also helped them re-enter the top 40. Should have done album singings etc... They only have themselves/management to blame. Edited January 19, 201213 yr by lee wallace
January 19, 201213 yr I suppose doing album signings may have added a couple of thousand at the most? We're not really hearing anything about a next single now and I think the best thing they can do is just cut their losses and try again with something new, any attempt to save this now could result in a mammoth flop single that will just make the situation worse and make radio more unwilling to support them (infact it'd be near certain to happen if they actually stupidly went with 'The Way You Watch Me'). Edited January 19, 201213 yr by Silver Rocket
January 19, 201213 yr Hey need to move on from this 'era'. They'll only waste money by releasing a 4th single and there is no way this album will recover. It is dead.
January 19, 201213 yr They only have themselves/management to blame. Fixed! :lol: No but seriously, I don't get where anyone could actually blame the artist. They're not responsible for booking signings or promotion etc. Even with their scheduelle at the time though, do you think they could have realistically done 5 days worth of signings (ok, maybe not that many, but Monday-Friday isn't out of the question) whilst doing tour rehearsals for the tour that would have started 2wks later? It would be a bit manic to say the least.
January 20, 201213 yr It just seems the management think they could sell on name alone. Why give up on On Your Radar, the album is fantastic and I really think while working on the next album we could get at least The Way You Watch Me/Do What You Want With Me. Maybe even Last Call.... I heard Do What You Want With Me on the radio today! Although I guess if they moved on to a new album it may help them gain better airplay but it could be costly ala Sugababes.

January 20, 201213 yr They fucked up by having songs which were unidentifiable. 'All Fired Up' as amazing and as successful as it has been (which I'd personally say it HAS been a success for them) could have been done by anyone. It's just, not them. Same with 'Notorious'. 'My Heart Takes Over' is a personal favourite of mine and it's baffling as to how it wasn't a success. Maybe what Scherz (?) said about it being a single which was led by the two members of the group who aren't as liked/popular as the other three played a factor? Although they definitely have two of the strongest voices in the band. (Both behind Una in terms of vocals, imo). It really should have gone... 01. 'All Fired Up' [MAR-MAY: END OF SPRING/EARLY SUMMER] (It would have been a great start to cause "buzz" despite it sounding non-saturdays) 02. 'White Lies' [End of MAY-SEPT] (It really is the 'Up'/'Ego'/'Higher' of the album!) ---ALBUM RELEASE--- 03. 'Last Call' [OCT-DEC] (Personally, I thought 'My Heart Takes Over' was the best choice, but considering 'Last Call' was cherry picked more than MHTO on albums release, the public clearly didn't warm to the latter enough, so would have gone for this to sell the album over Winter/Christmas) 04. 'Do What You Want With Me' [JAN-APR] (A song which they performed without Una on tour, so they could promote this without having her there whilst she has the baby) 05. 'Get Ready, Get Set' [JUN/JUL] (Maybe one last attempt at flogging the album and seeing as Una would/could be back - not sure how long it'll take for her to bond with baby and stuff - it could welcome her back as she sings the hook and stuff.) /end campaign. :(
January 20, 201213 yr 01. All Fired Up 02. Do What You Want With Me Album Release 03. Last Call 04. The Way You Watch Me/ White Lies 05. Get Ready, Get Set
January 20, 201213 yr I can't stop listening to 'White Lies'. It literally is one of the most orgasmic pop songs I've heard in a while. Probably since I first heard 'Price Tag' which was late 2010. The more I listen to it, the more I get depressed and thinking that it's going to be THE missed opportunity from this era. I don't care if it will flop, but Pixie showed that something CAN be done after a flop if they were given the right backing/promotion. Send 'White Lies' to radio and announce it as the next official single, reduce it to 59p and promote the living CRAP out of it. At least they gave it a go and I wouldn't be as upset about it being one of the most missed opportunities of the year. :P
January 20, 201213 yr I think White Lies would do amazing if it was reduced to 59p tbh! I think it would also get amazing airplay compared to My Heart Takes Over & Notorious. It's just a hit that screams out, I think not releasing this/ another single from the album will show how stupid the management are tbh.
