'Back To You' has the makings of a good song, but I dunno. It's a bit flat overall. A repeated chorus with such heavily autotuned vocals. Kind of like 'Missing You', although not quite that bad.

 

I know it basically doesn't exist anymore, but is 'Hair Down' not considered the follow-up? :unsure:

Finally 'Back To You' has reached 1mil views on YouTube, it deserved/s SO much more.

Back To You is great, I think I played it on loop for the first week it was out. Hair Down I'm less keen on but it's still nice enough.

The issue with Gentleman is they just managed to generate a bit of a name for themselves with What About Us, charting in Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Germany etc, Gentleman still opened with 1m views then after that nobody really wanted to listen or watch it again.

 

I know Disco Love was one of the last songs ready for Living For The Weekend but it would have been so interesting to see how Not Giving Up performed as single two? I think top 5 and around 250,000 sales.

 

THIS!! The writing was on the wall for the singles from LFTW:

 

What About Us - Not Giving Up - Disco Love - Leave A Light On

 

...how they choose Gentleman never fails to make me laugh!

leave a light on was the perfect final single - cute January / February release then Greatest Hits would have been in a much better position .

23. The Saturdays - 30 Days

Average Rating 6.93

Highest Score: TeamCracker, Mike (10)

Lowest Score: Tawdry (2)

 

 

30 Days was a last minute single as the original concept was for 'The Way You Watch Me'. '30 Days' continued The Saturdays top 10 streak despite an incredibly dissapointing chart run, I feel like 30 Days is under appreciated, it's not a song I always listen to but when I do listen to it, I remind myself that it's a solid pop bop. The verses are strong as is the chorus, it's a cute enough song that probably deserved to be a couple of positions higher but at least it's not bottom 2 like last rate *.*

22. The Saturdays - If This Is Love

Average Rating: 7.38

Highest Scorers: ClaudiaW, Ready4It (10)

Lowest Scorers: Meekul (4)

 

 

This average rating would have been enough for top 10 in the last rate :cheeseblock: Finishing at #22 in If This Is Love, I'll happily admit, I've never really been a huge supporter of this but it was the single that got The Saturdays' noticed and their first ever top 10 hit. The youtube caption is iconic though as wrong video x

'30 Days' is really not good at all.

 

'If This is Love' is a nice debit single, but hasn't held up as well because they've bettered it so many times since.

Back To You is great, I think I played it on loop for the first week it was out. Hair Down I'm less keen on but it's still nice enough.

 

Knowing Mollie was sitting on To The Beat of My Heart sucks, I feel that could’ve been a minor hit for her at the time, and may have actually got the album.

I know it basically doesn't exist anymore, but is 'Hair Down' not considered the follow-up? :unsure:

 

Yeah, I know i didn't chart, but Hair Down seems to have been cancelled on the rate :lol:

21. The Saturdays - Forever Is Over

Average Rating: 7.41

Highest Rate: Ready4It (11)

Lowest Rate Meekul (2)

 

 

Killing the wordshaker campaign before it started was the lead single 'Forever Is Over'. 'Forever Is Over' peaked at number #2 in the official charts where it went up against 'Oopsy Daisy' which The Saturdays were originally supposed to be a feature on but had to turn down due to it being close to their album release. Despite peaking at #2 Forever Is Over never had a strong chart run with it being their comeback single and was only chosen as lead single because Kelly Clarkson had originally wanted it for her album.

20. The Saturdays - 808

Average Rating: 7.48

Highest Rating: Nina (10)

Lowest Rating: Billy (4)

 

 

Kicking start the top 20, is the most streamed album track from 'Finest Selection' and has easily managed to outstream 'WAYWF', had it been a single, it probably would have done a little bit better but I couldn't imagine much better, '808' is a bop and the fact Angel Haze was originally meant to be on the single is a bit weird yet iconic.

we have a shocking elimination next tbh

Forever Is Over really was the wrong lead for Wordshaker. I never knew that .Kelly wanted it.

i reckon WAU will be eliminated soon by looking at the rates.

 

I was so glad they finally got a no.1 single but they have so many better songs that should’ve (and almost were) been no.1.

They’ve been no real surprises yet for me so far. Really happy with what’s left.

19. The Saturdays - Last Call (Less 11's)

Average Rating 7.5

Highest Rating: Run4Cover,Lovatic,Joseph, Dane, Adam (10)

Lowest Rating: Zarate, Viper (4)

 

 

Finishing at #19 is one of The Saturdays' most beautiful ballads in Last Call. I remember instantly loving this from 'On Your Radar', the simple lyrics for me is what it makes it beautiful. The vocals are beautiful too and I would have loved it being the final single from 'On Your Radar' had the album performed better commercially. It also feels like something that would have been a tiktok smash, make it happen please

18. The Saturdays - Notorious

Average Rating 7.5 (More 11's)

Highest Rating: Joseph (11)

Lowest Rating: Cameron (-1)

 

 

Finishing at a surprising position of #18 in the countdown is one of The Saturdays' biggest bops, despite being originally underwhelmed by the song due to the lack of chorus, the beat is as Vanessa would say the beat is crazy and infectious . 'Notorious' was one of the first songs to be released on air and debuted with an impressive 38,000 sales and had a respectable chart run hanging around the top 25 for 6 weeks. I think this would have been a top 3 hit, possibly #1 had it been held back and generated pre-orders. We even got the incredible So You Think You Can Dance performance. Notorious was originally meant for Nicole Scherzinger and the video was shot in LA, what a waste of a budget. It deserved better but Cameron gets his wish and it does flop tbh

Last Call should've been the OYR ballad release instead of MHTO, I said what I said x

17. The Saturdays - Issues

Average Rating: 7.61

Highest Scorer: Cameron (11)

Lowest Scorer: Tawdry (-1)

 

 

Like that Cameron's least favourite is eliminated and now his favourite is eliminated. "It's so WONG" to see Issues this low, 'Issues' was the first single ever released post album and was a huge success, it also became at the time their biggest radio hit and helped 'Chasing Lights' have an incredibly stable chart run. 'Issues' deserved to finish top 15 at least.
