April 19, 201411 yr That article above is just the usual misinformed shit they are always attacked with. First of all it's the double morals of these people: all that rant about the sticking with one sound would transform into "don't bore me with the same rubbish sound album after album" if they would have done what they ask for. The truth is, they are a pop group. They have added different vibes to that sound each campaign, but they've sticked to that. They started with electro-pop, slowly upgraded to dance-pop, and the last album combined dance songs with pure pop and slight R&B vibes (even the Not Giving Up radio mix makes it more electro than dance). It's called evolution. The Girls Aloud comparison should've died in 2009, specially if they complain about the fact The Saturdays have changed their sound over time. GA didn't stick around for the dance-pop era, and were focused on electro-pop for most of their time, something that The Saturdays pretty much abandoned after their debut. Those comparisons make me specially angry, because they are putting on a pedestal a group of girls that admittedly hated each other and their own music, that last part might be due to the fact they had no say in their own music output nor the single choices. You can't actually count how many times they said they hated X single but started to like it after a while on their documentary. And the times when they did decide the song they were going to promote, they made the safest choices, like The Promise. The only thing in common in between Girls Aloud and The Saturdays is that they both are a five-piece girlband. Period. The Saturdays are way more straight-pop, have way more control over their work, and they don't have the bitchiness that was omnipresent through GA run, either among their own members or against other acts. There's no drama with The Saturdays, which to some people is boring, and it's OK. They are just different acts. And nobody appreciate their efforts to combine babies with promotional campaigns, in an era when bands split up and solo artists take time off when they get pregnant (every single female artist). As if having a woman touring while being heavily pregnant was an effort not worthy of being praised. They are five girls who accomplished their dream of making and touring commercial music, during six album campaigns, at least. If that's not commendable, I don't know what it is.
April 19, 201411 yr Interesting! Imagine we got to vote for like 3 fan favs to be played live! :D I think they should bring back the coloured tights I have a feeling "White Lies", "One Shot" and "Lease My Love" could be very much in the running if this did happen!

Completely agree, fairplay to Una for AFU tour! :wub:
April 19, 201411 yr I agree that One Shot and White Lies are fan favorites but there are several other tracks that would make it over Lease My Love.
April 19, 201411 yr I guess Chasing Light will be the only album track, maybe even One Shot or Get Ready Get Set. They should perform Lease My Love, it such expensive track it should not be wasted and forgotten. I hope they perform a few tracks from Living...weekend. Edited April 19, 201411 yr by Totto
April 19, 201411 yr I really need a new Sats reality show -_- They could do another What Goes On Tour styled one for the GH Tour on ITV2 or one like The Saturdays 24/7 or Chasing The Saturdays would be even better :P Edited April 19, 201411 yr by Satsfan7

I completely forgot about Chasing Lights, that would be on there too :o I really need a new Sats reality show -_- They could do another What Goes On Tour styled one for the GH Tour on ITV2 or one like The Saturdays 24/7 or Chasing The Saturdays would be even better :P Sats On The Road or something like that - following tour rehearsals, promo for GH singles and the insides of the motherly lifestyle (Una, Rochelle and Frankie, I am looking at you!) B-)
April 19, 201411 yr Vanessa and Mollie could do the new Frankie and Rochelle horse costume thing. Imagine the scene, Frankie. Una and Rochelle are sitting playing with their kids then BOOOM. Mollie walks in pushing Vanessa in a pram dressed up as a baby. :lol:
April 19, 201411 yr I'd settle for a "Meet The Fodens" reality show on ITV2 with Una,Ben and Aoife :lol:
April 20, 201411 yr Meet The Fodens, could be a Saturdays spin-off series ;) LOVE the idea about Mollie and Vanessa :lol:
April 20, 201411 yr I hope if there is a vote of some kind to pick a song, a song they've not done live before, or on tour before gets picked, such as 2 Am.
April 20, 201411 yr Wordshaker is so underrated. It has 4 of my top 10 songs on it Forever Is Over,Ego,Denial & Here Standing <3 Edited April 20, 201411 yr by Satsfan7

April 20, 201411 yr Wordshaker produced Forever is Over which is my favourite song from The Saturdays without a doubt but I still don't rate the album <_<
April 20, 201411 yr 2 am is fab :wub: I don't get the hate for it. Wish I Didn't Know should be performed :wub: they were great at it on the AFU tour (minus the night Ness forgot her cue haha)
