Yeah it sold well but chart position should’ve been higher!

On Your Radar is legit one of the best pop albums. It deserved so much better. It really could have got another 3/4 singles out of it. Faster, Do What You Want With Me and ending it with Last Call / Wish I Didn’t Know with a remix.
Firstly the 'Wordshaker' era was pretty much all wrong & here's what I would have done.

Ego - Think that starting things off with something more familiar sounding would have been better suited than 'FIO' & not alienate fans & help the album sell better.
Forever Is Over - Now give the public a taste of something a little different
Here Standing or Lose Control - Either of which could have helped sales & kept things going a little more smoothly, but no more than 3 singles from this album.

Headlines Era:

Higher - Far better & stronger than 'MY', & definitely would have performed better.
Missing You
Puppet - This could have easily been another smash hit with a cool music video.

This is how the 'On Your Radar' era should have went like =

Notorious
All Fired Up
Faster - This would have been far better to launch the album
My Heart Takes Over - Better served in the early months of 2012

Then if 'MHTO' proved to be a success then have..

Get Ready Get Set/30 Days - A cool club banger to end the era, & have a new single alongside it to kick off another era.


Living For The Weekend Era:

30 Days
What About Us
Not Giving Up - This could have easily performed better than 'Gentleman', a much stronger choice & may have given them another top 10 hit.
Disco Love
Leave A Light On - Probably would have performed about the same as 'NGU' did, but this would have been a nice closing chapter to this era.

10. ISSUES [7.38]

Highest: Cameron (11); Jordan Lee, Herbs, BiLLYx, FUTURE NOSTALGIA & SamJudd (10) + Jonjo (09.5)

Lowest: Tawdry Hepburn (-01); *CENSORED* (00); Nick F1 (04.5) + Jade, LMLou, SevenSeize, diamondtooth & Mullo (05)

 

Into the top 10 we go and kicking us off is the girls first ballad single Issues. This went on to become a huge top 5 hit for the girls and followed up the success of Up perfectly with a song that was just as big! I remember there being a big hoo-rah surrounding the release of this track as a radio edit was made because radio thought "slap" sounded too much like "stab" so they re-recorded and changed the line to "I don't know if I should leave you or kiss you". A really cute song! It was a fave of mine for a while, but they have trumped it since.

NOT GIVING UP [7.51]

Highest: ElectroBoy (11); Jade, LMLou, girlsaloudjunkie, Cameron, Prettylittlebry, Juliano, *Callum & Jay (10) + JosephInSpace, Lukuzz, Adam & Juranamo (09.5)

Lowest: *CENSORED* (01); FUTURE NOSTALGIA (01.5) + Jester & vibe (03)

 

At number 9 is the girls 2nd to last single, Not Giving Up. A huge fave with forumers & fans I think, but for me personally I find it a tad overrated by them. It's good, but the way people whet themselves over this, you'd have thought they'd have given us 'Run Away With Me' or 'Toxic' or something. The song managed to go top 20 for the girls making it their 16th and final top 20 hit. The song was first heard in one of their "Chasing The Saturdays" episodes & the music video was clearly on a budget, but they made it work. Just makes me wanna grab a light and do some choreo to it! The video also marked the return of Frankie after she had taken time off to give birth to her first child. Good but overrated imo </3

 

That screengrab is NOT good for my OCD *eyes*

Ngu would have done better had they released it in Jan / early feb. To think this was their first single to not be playlisted

Not Giving Up > Run Away With Me, seeing as you mentioned it :kink:

 

The single mix of NGU is SO DAMN GOOD. Love the album version too but the extra spark in the single mix definitely helps! What a song *.*

OMG! :lol:

 

Joseph is correct
*insert gif of New York on her bed laughing*

 

NGU is probably one of my top sats songs
I would hope so, considering you gave it a "10"! :lol:

 

:kink:

 

Number 8 coming right up!
