We shall see! :)

 

I'm seeing them in September yay! Frankie's bump will be huge by then. :lol:

 

EDIT: The music channels are showing Gentleman through the normal 'Brand New Video' slots.

I can't believe how good this sounds live. :o Even without Rochelle, the mic volume and the dead crowd it sounds fantastic.

 

The rap section is awesome. Vanessa just sounds flawless on it and I actually think Mollie done well, although she was a bit too quiet. The chorus and choreography reminds me alot of the Girls Aloud routine for 'Biology' but so much better, haha.

 

I hope this song is massive. It's REALLY growing on me.

The song has catchy elements, but it's just not strong.

There's no way this could sell less than 30 Days. End of story.

#70 on rolling UK TV Airplay, should hopefully manage top 20 next week.

Sacrilegious. :drama:

I love the routine to Gentleman. It's so fun, yet so simple.

anyone else notice during the bit after the first 'i'm an outlaw blah blah' bit when Mollie normally says make some noise Una says it too whe Mollie says it and Mollie is all 'you did not just do that, Im a gangsta...' haha

I personally don't like the song at all but I'm still hoping for a top 10 debut. And I thought the performance was cool.

If there's one thing I do not get about this artist forum it's the constant hatred towards Frankie. No matter how well she performs she gets such bad comments on here. You guys seem to be the harshest on her. Also I really don't get the Mollie can't do wrong attitude when she is often just as weak or weaker of a vocalist than Frankie. Anyway I really have this worry that radio 1 aren't gonna playlist this.

What makes you think that? As far as I remember, Radio 1 have playlisted all of their singles... even if Gentleman isn't playlisted for long I still think they will. Plus they're coming off the back of What About Us, which Radio 1 had on the playlist for around 7/8 (?) weeks.... I think they'll be okay to get playlisted.

Frankie's always been my least favourite Saturday, and there's no way Radio 1 won't playlist it.

I don't mind Frankie but she definitely seems bored while performing now. Even before she was pregnant there was just so little energy and while Mollie has grown as a performer and vocalist, Frankie seems to have lost her spark and yet failed to improve her vocals. She's getting the least amount of solos on every single now, which is fine, but in Gentleman it's probably equally split between the other four girls with Frankie only getting in a line or two. In live performances she's barely audible and can't even sing a line in tune, and while she could get away with that in the past because she was the "fittest" one and was the most energetic/best dancer, it becomes alot more obvious now when she's got a huge baby bump and looks like she can't wait to get off stage again.

 

I'm not a fan of Mollie's voice AT ALL and I think the love for her is a bit OTT at times but I'll admit she's came in leaps and bounds since the band debuted. Not only does she look like the ultimate pop star with the shorter hair, but she still manages to look enthusiastic and happy in every performance. Her dancing is good and in the Gentleman performance from the other day, I'd actually say she was pretty much flawless. The rap had a bit of attitude but the only problem was that it wasn't very audible. Considering how her and Frankie used to be non-existant in the Chasing Lights era, it's amazing to see her with so solo parts now.

I completely disagree with you about Mollie. I think she has a beautiful voice, it is full of innocence. I dont think the love for her is OTT because she seems like a naturally likable girl, even in all the interviews the band participate in, she seems like the most talkative and down to earth one

I always find mollie really cringey in performances with the faces she pulls. She's not much better in the interviews.

Mollie without fail during performances gives the sex face at the camera's.

Frankie's voice is such a mystery to me. It has such a sweet tone to it SOMETIMES that you wonder how does she sound whiny MOST OF THE TIME? :unsure: I remember people saying back then that she has a "baby voice" and I didn't think it was true until they actually gave her parts where she has to belt. You can hear that she doesn't belt ; she whines her way through it. I think she is much much much better when she goes into her head voice or falsetto. Yes, it sounds weak sometimes, but it sounds "beautiful". Range-wise, I'm completely lost. She seems to have an okay low register (What About Us, for example) and a very good high register...Yet, sometimes it seems like she has the shortest range of them all. It's also quite sad how she always seems to be singing the same way on every chorus she doesn't lead. She will go into her head voice and will sing the chorus in a very thin way while the other four actually sound different singing different choruses.

 

I do agree with shadow when he says she has a lost her spark. I don't especially need the Frankie that used to fart on Rochelle's back, because you know, she's not a child anymore, and I do understand that she has to be mature, but it doesn't stop Mollie from being the funniest one in The Saturdays, does it? I just wish she would go back to her "old self"... but then I know it's very harsh from me considering she had depression and might still suffer a few times from it. I just think it's becoming ridiculous and if, YES, we shouldn't be harsh on her, we shouldn't exactly be nicer to her either. Her recent performance, vocally and dancing/energy wise, was disappointing in my opinion.

Omg! Gentleman sounds amazing live!!! I think thats the beat I've heard them ever!!

Only at #45 on the Rolling TV Airplay :(

 

The song is still not top 100, which The Wanted are already top 10 on Radio Airplay, this really is going to do another 30 Days, there's little hype surrounding the single.

Maybe The Sats should sign to Global Talent if TW are now top 10 on radio. :P That's the only reason The Wanted are so high so seeing them up there isn't worrying, more of an eye roll moment really.
