Aww shame this couldnt get any higher, but better than I expected anyway! They really should have pushed for Really Dont Care instead though.

This is more suited to Demi's vocal range than the rather more demanding "Skyscraper" and "Let It Go"

I TOTALLY agree with this, everyone speaks about how she has such a big voice, but for me, it's excruciatingly painful because of how screechy it is. Especially Skyscraper which is unbearable. She has a good voice for belting but she always pushes it way too far imo, this is a fun track where she can actually still show some range.

I really like this as I do any generic song like this - only thing I've cared for by her aside from Give Your Heart A Break. IT'S A BIT OF A BOP.

Give Your Heart A Break is my favourite too, shame it didn't do great.

Biography

Surpassing the achievements of One Direction and JLS by becoming the first group to win The X Factor in the U.K., four-piece girl band Little Mix were one of the few success stories to emerge from the underperforming and controversial eighth season. Jade Thirlwall (who had auditioned for two previous series) and Perrie Edwards (both from South Shields), Jesy Nelson (from Romford, East London), and Leigh-Anne Pinnock (from High Wycombe) had all originally auditioned as solo artists, but like fellow acts Nu Vibe and the Risk, were put together as a group at the boot-camp stages. After impressing Jessie J and mentor N-Dubz's Tulisa Contostavlos at Judges' House, they made it to the live finals, where their engaging personalities, girl-next-door image, and contemporary song choices saw them outgrow their initial underdog status. Originally known as Rhythmix, the girls were forced to change their moniker in week four after it was revealed that there was already a Brighton-based children's charity of the same name. But following stellar performances of En Vogue's "Don't Let Go," Katy Perry's "E.T.," and Rihanna's "Don't Stop the Music," they beat the Conway Sisters and Hope's previous record to become the first girl band in the show's history to make it past week seven. After contributing to the high-profile M&S TV ad campaign and the finalists' charity cover version of Rose Royce's "Wishing on a Star," they eventually went on to triumph over Marcus Collins in the final. Their debut single, a rendition of Damien Rice's 2003 hit "Cannonball," went on to top the charts but scored the lowest first-week sales by an X Factor winner since Steve Brookstein's "Against All Odds" in 2004, and was later beaten to the coveted Christmas number one spot by the Military Wives Choir. Their debut album, DNA, featuring the singles "Cannonball," "Wings," and the title track, was released in late 2012. - iTunes

Agreed. Wasn't it a #87 hit :kink:

Nope, didn't go top 100 in the UK. Her other top 100 hits aside from the ones in the chart history posted for her are 'Made In The USA' (#89) and 'Remember December' (#80) so you're probably thinking of one of them.

'Salute' is such a non-event for me, as is their back catalogue of tracks.
Strange to think there was such a big gap between "Heart Attack" (May 2013) and the follow-up (in terms of radio getting behind it). I guess "Skyscraper" had a revival during the winter, but still. Gave up listening to this after the first minute, sounds like something The Saturdays would try and get a hit with; not a fan.
Salute is just INCREDIBLE. As much as I really like 'Braveheart' from Neon Jungle, the sound of everything Little Mix are releasing at the moment is so bold and just miles ahead of other girlbands.

Non Number 1 alert. One of the worst dance hits of the year for me. It's just so bland and gives me a headache. :(
