August 30, 200816 yr Thanks for the generic rhetorical question and complimentary youtube video response, but Matt is right - he's heard the album, you've heard two studio songs, a live performance and a youtube quality future single. Plus you consider Katy Perry a talent. You are hands down the most arrogant, self-righteous ignorant moron I have ever had the misfortune of coming across on the internet. Time, and time again, you make statements that you are breathtakingly wrong and you are completely unable to back up. Lets see which artist is or has been #1 in the World Wide Charts, and the singles charts in the USA, UK, Ireland, Germany, Australia, Canada, New Zealand (and so far) 16 other countries with her latest single which is the biggest selling single in the world so far in 2008 with worldwide sales over 4.5 million so far? Clue: Not the Saturdays. Plus any artist who's debut single UR So Gay was a brilliant lyrical put down of her ex-boyfriend Pete Wentz (Fall Out Boy), after he dumped her for Ashlee Simpson. Where the lyrics and video very clearly point to that. Hence the UR So Gay quote taken from a famous right wing US news reporter when interviewing the bass player from the EMO band due to his use of make up making him look like an extra from an early 1980s Culture Club or Duran Duran video. But oh no according to you to song the song is attacking homosexuals, ignoring the rather insignificant fact that she toured supporting the iconic gay icon Cyndi Lauper on tour, and the fact that Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters) & Boy George (ex Culture Club) who are both homosexuals both included that track in 2007 year end magazines favourite songs of the years list. As for not being talented, as I've mentioned before she was part of the anonymous The Matrix writing team who have written for Avril Lavigne & Britney Spears amongst many others, so to label her as not being talented is foolish in the extreme. But no doubt you think the songwriters in Xenomania are less talented than Girls Aloud? But hey you know better than the real facts don't you. I'm sorry, but I've been listening to and buying new music for over 25 years. It was obvious from the get go that the likes of the Spice Girls, Girls Aloud, Sugababes & All Saints had the talent, the image and the songs to become major stars. It's not a case of whether I like the songs or not. For example I cannot stand the PussyCat Dolls but it is obvious that there songs are very catchy, well made and are bound to be big hit singles. And don't get me started on Stock Aitken & Waterman, but the bast*rds knew how to make catchy records to sell to the masses. It is pretty god damn obvious to my ears that The Saturdays do not based on the songs that I have heard. Truth be told none of their songs are even as good as the first three singles released by S Club Juniors ffs. Sorry, to say this, but I'm about as certain that The Saturdays will go the way of fellow girl groups Clea, Cleopatra, the Thunderbugs, Girl Thing, Hepburn, Eden's Crush & Bardot as I am that Chelsea FC will finish in the top 2 of the Premiership this season.
August 30, 200816 yr Im not sure what it is, probs nothing! BACK ON TOPIC... Edited August 30, 200816 yr by coolnav
August 30, 200816 yr Eh? According to you in that case, Katy Perry being #1 globally somehow makes her good? Perhaps George Bush being president makes him an excellent leader. Perhaps The Sun being the UK's #1 newspaper makes it a quality piece of journalism. Perhaps you being a frequent poster makes your input somehow valuable. Oh no, in all 3 cases it's certainly a case of quantity over quality. Ur So Gay is lyrically brilliant? Are you for real? Even Katy's fans know that's a terrible song. It has been panned left right and centre. It is mundane, mindless tat. You remember Metacritic? Well of course you do, you thrive on quoting it. It gave Katy's album an average of 43. Out of 100. That's an average score of 4/10. Is this the work of a brilliant artist? Absolutely not. In response to your personal attack on me, I'd like to say you're not the biggest imbecile I've ever encountered on the internet. You're just the biggest imbecile after Russ, although thankfully his departure, for which we all should be eternally grateful, has paved the way for allowing you to adopt that coveted title. Good day.
August 30, 200816 yr Im not sure what it is, probs nothing! BACK ON TOPIC... Oh ffs you are really getting on my tats. You aren't the mod forum or anything close? Stop bloody telling people what to do. If they wish to debate/argue that's their decision if a mod sees otherwise then they'll do their job and step-in. NOT YOU.

I just get bored when people like thisispop rant on for ages dismissing anything anyone suggests is good or relevent to the topic. So yeah, i would love for this to get back on topic. The whole thing is utterly pointless as it will be a load of hype for nothing.

Your egotistical, self-righteous and ignorant posts aren't needed but the rest of us still have to deal with them. If you get bored them don't look. You aren't in any position here to tell people what to say. I'm enjoying reading their posts (the ones that aren't jibes anyway) and they're within their rights to post it. You have no right to tell them what to do. Caw :/

Good day. We are not all eternally grateful for Russ leaving. You are quite wrong there Jark.
August 30, 200816 yr Don't tell me what is needed. Your egotistical, self-righteous and ignorant posts aren't needed but the rest of us still have to deal with them. Oh dear, time to have a pop at someone new, what have i ever done to you? My posts have never been any of the above. Stop trying to talk me down as it really isnt working.
August 30, 200816 yr Hence the word choice 'should be'. And believe me, a huge amount are.[/size] Really? I am certainly not one of them and miss Russ' imput on the forum as I found his opinions quite refreshing. Good thing we aren't all the same eh? ^_^
August 30, 200816 yr Oh dear, time to have a pop at someone new, what have i ever done to you? My posts have never been any of the above. Stop trying to talk me down as it really isnt working. It wouldn't be working because that's not what I'm trying to do. There aren't any levels here. This is an Internet forum; everyone is on the same level. Stop playing mod when you aren't one :/
August 30, 200816 yr Really? I am certainly not one of them and miss Russ' imput on the forum as I found his opinions quite refreshing. Good thing we aren't all the same eh? ^_^ Glad we can agree on something. Really though, there's no need to pick at and disect my posts; I've never gone out of my way to get into any sort of disagreement with you but you seem to enjoy pointing out that I'm some terrible provokist...
August 30, 200816 yr Stop playing mod when you aren't one :/ Im not 'playing' anything, im allowed to ask people to do things and to have an opinion just like any other member. The post didnt hint at any superiority, just mentioned three words. If people dont want to listen to me thats fine, im not going to cry about it - it was just a passing comment after a rather long winded (and IMO pointless) post from thisispop.
August 30, 200816 yr does anyone think this pop thing might be anastacia's comeback? i'm probably wrong, i nearly always am when this srta thing happens :lol:
August 30, 200816 yr Why would it be? He never even mentioned the lead single :heehee: It'll be something we have no clue about I'm sure...
August 31, 200816 yr Katy Perry dated Wentz then? :o Learn something new everyday innit. Haha, same. I never knew that either! :o
August 31, 200816 yr No neither did I. I was starting to think that Katy dating Pete was the big reveal until it clicked that you were referring to thisispop's post.
August 31, 200816 yr I really can't imagine them as a couple :lol: Then again him and Ashlee Simpson aren't exactly a match made in heaven. Personality wise probably. :heehee:
September 1, 200816 yr Thanks for the generic rhetorical question and complimentary youtube video response, but Matt is right - he's heard the album, you've heard two studio songs, a live performance and a youtube quality future single. Plus you consider Katy Perry a talent. erm... katy perry in comparison to 5 pop puppets IS talented, 'i kissed a girl' is far better then anything the shyte-adays has yet done. im not a particular fan of kp... but ill respect a solo artiste singer songwriter over a manufactured 'confetti' group anyday. and although you are right when you say (later in this thread) that sales dont equal 'good' (crazy frog ?...:lol: ) you have to put it all into some perspective. you tend to let your personal taste dictate what is 'good' and what isnt. you dont like kp, you do like the shyte-adays, so you are hardly going to give a balanced view on this are you?.
