August 31, 201410 yr I just saw this... absolutely NEVER. I hate Rochelle. Well, I don't hate her. But she's my least favourite by a long stretch. Mow :(
September 1, 201410 yr Author 20. Set Me Off - 7.20 Mean Score: 7.20 Overall Score: 173 / 240 Album: Chasing Lights Number of 11's: 2 Number of 10's: 1 Number of -1's: 1 Highest Rate: 11 (Sociopath, Hurricane) Lowest Rate: -1 (James) General Comment: Okay so kicking off the Top 20 is one of my personal favourite Saturdays songs Set Me Off. From their debut album Chasing Lights, SMO is on the later half of the album but is one of the album highlights for me, anyway. When I saw it performed it live I screamed like a 6 year old and still have a soft spot for this to this day. It's so catchy and even Frankie sounds good. "Be aware, I am not your everyday babe" is one of the best Sats lyrics and Una's bridge is on another level. I always envisioned an office type video with the girls getting sledgehammers and chainsaws cars and F***ing up their bosses cars but anyway it received a lot of high scores including 10 8's. On the other hand it received 1 -1 and 2 3's.
September 1, 201410 yr Author 19. Keep Her - 7.25 Mean Score: 7.25 Overall Score: 174 / 240 Album: Chasing Lights Number of 11's: 0 Number of 10's: 3 Number of -1's: 0 Highest Rate: 10 (SB. , Totto, Scherz) Lowest Rate: 3 (James) General Comment: Surprisingly Keep Her achieved no 11's so it's incredible it made it to the upper half of the chart but it's probably also down to the flood of high score's. Also the lowest score it achieved was a 3 so overall it seems to be a well liked Sats song. Despite getting no 11's, it got 3 10's and a lot of 8's/9's. I think it's a great track and when I bought the Chasing Lights album, Keep Her was the first album track I heard so it really set the bar for the rest of the album tracks and even though I don't love it as much as I used too, it's still very catchy and the chorus reminds me a lot of Wordshaker (the song). I have realized though this sounds ten times better in the car compared to through earphones or a cd player. Also Vanessa's ad-libs towards the end of the song are a career highlight ok bye.
September 1, 201410 yr Author 18. Leave A Light On - 7.25 Mean Score: 7.25 Overall Score: 174 / 240 Album: Living For The Weekend Number of 11's: 2 Number of 10's: 2 Number of -1's: 2 Highest Rate: 11 (LeeWallace, Aprilconda) Lowest Rate: -1 (AdamAloud, SB.) General Comment: At 18 is the Living For The Weekend track Leave A Light On. Just like Lose Control, I expected this to chart higher but it seems to have settled. With the same score as Keep Her, Leave A Light On managed to receive 2 11's whereas Keep Her didn't so I placed it higher. It got 2 11's, 2 10's, 4 9's and 4 8's among with some fairly average scores. Written by Amber Riley from Glee, LALO was a fan favourite from the album's release and when NGU didn't exceed expectations, people wondered if LALO would have been a better single (It wouldn't have). I think it's a great track despite the "coming home" part sounding recycled and Rochelle's robotic vocals. Una probably sounds the best to me and it is quite catchy.

September 1, 201410 yr Author 17. Lies- 7.27 Mean Score: 7.27 Overall Score: 174.5 / 240 Album: Chasing Lights Number of 11's: 0 Number of 10's: 3 Number of -1's: 0 Highest Rate: 10 (AdamAloud, J▼hnkm, Martyn) Lowest Rate: 5 (Cameron, Joe. , James, Scherz, Aprilconda) General Comment: Unfortunately another Chasing Lights track leaves the chart as Lies respectably places at 17. Despite this, 2 Chasing Lights tracks still remain (Fall, Chasing Lights). Weirdly enough just like Keep Her, Lies received no 11's but on average received a lot of high scores ranging from 7-9 and 3 10's. The lowest score Lies received was 5 5's which is probably the highest lowest score yet. I think Lies is fantastic and Frankie sounds so good and it's one of their best album tracks in my eyes, despite being constantly overlooked. Vanessa's final vocal is also glorious and again it is a great car song to listen to.
September 1, 201410 yr Author 16. Lease My Love - 7.29 Mean Score: 7.29 Overall Score: 175 / 240 Album: Living For The Weekend Number of 11's: 2 Number of 10's: 2 Number of -1's: 1 Highest Rate: 11 (MissingYou, Totto) Lowest Rate: -1 (AdamAloud) General Comment: So the final Living For The Weekend track misses out on the Top 15 and rightly so. If there's one thing I've learned from doing this rate it is that LFTW is their worst album of their career and not even the holy trinity of What About Us/Disco Love/Not Giving Up can save it from the depths of album-hell where it belongs. To be honest I did think Leave A Light On would be the highest LFTW entry but Lease My Love takes that crown at 16. Co-written and Produced by the "legendary" Darkchild, Lease My Love (a Rihanna reject) was given to the girls and I still cannot listen to this track to this day. Screechy mess. I'd rather listen to a Jedward cover of No One on repeat for 8 hours than put myself through this mess. Despite my negative opinion, LML received 2 11's, 2 10's 6 9's and a lot of 7's so it must be listen-able to some people.

September 1, 201410 yr Author 15. Denial - 7.35 Mean Score: 7.35 Overall Score: 176.5 / 240 Album: Wordshaker Number of 11's: 1 Number of 10's: 3 Number of -1's: 0 Highest Rate: 11 (Martyn) Lowest Rate: 2 (Shadow2009) General Comment: Ok so at 15 is Denial and I'm so glad it's this high cos I didn't really think it was that well liked but I adore it. Probably their second best ballad in my eyes after Last Call and overall a great album track. It got 1 11, 3 10's, 5 8's and 6 6's. So on a whole Denial seems like a well liked track despite receiving 2 5's and a 2. Performed at the Headlines Tour, it sounds just as good live and it's very relatable, emotional and just a great track to listen to really. The chorus is soo good and Mollie/Una sound great in parts of it however of course Vanessa steals the show with her vocals in the bridge and ad-libs during the last chorus of the song. Seriously her vocals/ad-libs in the last minute are some of her best and I need a Denial 2.0 cos it never get's old.
September 1, 201410 yr Author Totto is coming for you... hahahahhahahahahaha only speaking the truth :kink:
September 1, 201410 yr Author 14. Fall - 7.54 Mean Score: 7.54 Overall Score: 181 / 240 Album: Chasing Lights Number of 11's: 1 Number of 10's: 5 Number of -1's: 1 Highest Rate: 11 (JoesphStyles) Lowest Rate: -1 (Cameron) General Comment: In at 14 is the Chasing Lights track Fall which means Chasing Lights (the song) is the only CL track left however Fall places at 14 with 1 11, 5 10's!! and 6 9's so it's no wonder Fall made it this high. On the other hand it recievd a -1, a 1, a 3 and a 4. Again Fall is another great ballad and it's always nice to listen to from time to time. Una/Vanessa both sound incredible as usual on this and the last minute is so good seriously Chasing Lights is such a good album. I love every track. Ina is the incredible formula behind The Saturdays, mark my words.
September 1, 201410 yr Author 13. Karma - 7.58 Mean Score: 7.58 Overall Score: 182 / 240 Album: Headlines Number of 11's: 2 Number of 10's: 1 Number of -1's: 1 Highest Rate: 11 (Liam, Jonjo) Lowest Rate: -1 (Totto) General Comment: The 2nd Headlines track finally makes an appearance on the chart as Karma takes 13th place. Meaning Puppet is the only Headlines track left! With 2 11's, 1 10, 5 9's, 5 8's and 7 7's Karma rightfully deserves 13th place, even though I didn't predict it'd make it this high. Apart from it's -1 the only low score it received was a 5. Written and Produced by Steve Mac and Ina Wroldsen the masterminds behind Ego, maybe Karma could of worked as a single? or maybe not? but it's defiantly very pop and upbeat despite the lyrics being really dark in places such as "man I hope you choke on some really hot coffee" :kink: seriously who allowed Una to record that? hahahaha apart from that the lyrics are quite nice even though I mistaked Rochelle's "Yeah I hope that girl's got a real vision of family" for "Yeah I hope that girl's got a real bitch in the family" for about 3 years and only realized I've been wrong the other week haha! The bridge is probably the highlight of the song though and overall the song is very catchy.

September 1, 201410 yr Yes at Wordshaker still being in! I thought it'd be out by now, I have a feeling it'll be 11 or 12 though.
September 1, 201410 yr For anyone who is interested, here are the results for the Album Track rate that was done in January (If you want to compare them :lol:) 1 Get Ready, Get Set - 9.6 2 Not Giving Up - 9.5 3 Last Call - 9.2 4 White Lies - 9 5 Wildfire - 8.83 6 One Shot - 8.8 7 Chasing Lights - 8.6 8 Faster - 8.5 9 Wish I Didn’t Know - 8.3 10 Karma - 8.27 11 Here Standing - 8.21 12 Lose Control - 8.2 13 You Don’t Have The Right - 8 14 Denial - 7.9 15 Move On U - 7.81 16 Wordshaker - 7.8 17 Puppet - 7.72 18 Set Me Off - 7.6 19 Lies - 7.5 20 Do What You Want With Me 7.4 & Leave A Light On - 7.4 21 Open Up - 7.3 22 Lease My Love - 7.27 23 Anywhere With You - 7.2 24 Don’t Let Me Dance Alone - 7.1 25 Fall - 6.72 26 Keep Her - 6.61 27 Died In Your Eyes - 6.6 28 Promise Me, For Myself and I Say Ok - 6.1 29 2am - 6 30 Deeper - 5.94 31 Somebody Else’s Life - 5.7 32 Why Me, Why Now - 5.5 33 Vulnerable - 5.4 34 Not Good Enough - 5.3 35 The Way You Watch Me (ft. Travie McCoy) - 5.1 36 Problem With Love - 4.82 37 No One - 4.1
September 1, 201410 yr I have to say I'm outraged at 'Lose Control' and 'Wish I Didn't Know' being so low, also '2am' whilst not a masterpiece didn't deserve to be lower than some of this useless filler on Wordshaker which has landed above it.
September 1, 201410 yr 33. Somebody Else's Life - 5.70 30. Don't Let Me Dance Alone - 5.87 29. The Way You Watch Me ft. Travie McCoy - 5.89 28. Anywhere With You - 6.18 23. Wish I Didn't Know - 7.08 22. Move On You - 7.18 All at least 9/10 tracks tbh (I knew I should've voted in this damnit)
September 1, 201410 yr 'Wordshaker' is also immensely shit so hopefully that's next. I'm glad 'Karma' went out before 'Puppet' definitely the least good of the two. I'm sad 'Keep Her' beated 'Set Me Off', though. The latter is just so much better. Fairly surprised at how high 'Leave A Light On' is. Wow.
