September 28, 200915 yr How dare you come into this forum and quote Sugababes! :lol: I knew you wouldn't be able to, worth a shot though eh? :P LOL. Hey if the girls can borrow the Babes Get Sexy siren for Wordshaker I can use NCD :P I really would if I could with you lot :( Hopefully not much longer!
September 28, 200915 yr I'm going on holiday tonight and I know as soon as I step onto that plane, the damn thing will leak! haha I'm following you on twitter by the way Ryan.
September 28, 200915 yr 2am is infectiously cute! :wub: I'm really glad they changed the title from Baby Baby though! I am loving Open Up and Lose Control. Don't quote me on this but with OU I got a real Taylor Swift vibe at first and a Britney one with LC lol. Overall I'm really impressed! Very solid album, slightly relieved tbh!
September 28, 200915 yr I didn't realise it was coming out so soon! I'm so behind :lol: Really looking forward to it though :D
September 28, 200915 yr Promo from the label just. They dont do CD's - it's watermarked downloads now.
October 1, 200915 yr Sounds like a better album than Chasing Lights IMO. Again reinforces that FIO was a stupid decision for the lead single.
October 1, 200915 yr Author Sounds like a really strong album. Need to hear Ego, 2am and Lose Control in full!
October 1, 200915 yr ^ you will love Lose Control. It's so Britney-ish. Una is fabulous on it. sorry :kink:
October 1, 200915 yr the only tracks I do not love already are Denial and Open Up, but i'm sure that'll change when I hear the album.
October 6, 200915 yr Author The Saturdays: 'Wordshaker' Released on Monday, October 12 2009 By David Balls, Music Reporter Some still struggle to differentiate Rochelle from Vanessa, but in little over a year The Saturdays have already made themselves a pretty recognisable fixture on the pop landscape. Their debut album Chasing Lights went platinum after spawning four top ten singles - we'll overlook the botched release of 'Work' - and they've even managed to squeeze in a 24-date headline tour. Those early Girls Aloud comparisons may have all but disappeared, but can they deliver the goods on this all-important second album? Trailer 'Forever Is Over' is a tad underwhelming, but thankfully there's plenty to enjoy elsewhere on the album. Rather than shifting to the pop-rock sound of the single, Wordshaker generally sticks to the sparky electropop stompers that made Chasing Lights such an impressive debut. If anything, the girls are showing even more confidence this time around. 'One Shot' and 'Wordshaker', both of which combine grinding basslines with lethal pop hooks, make it quite clear that misbehaving boys will be punished. Then there's the cracking 'Ego', on which an over-confident male is calmly advised to "have a sit down with his ego". Though The Saturdays are at their most entertaining on the uptempo cuts - like most pop groups, truth be told - the album's obligatory smattering of ballads do go some way to warming the cockles. 'Here Standing', which has Christmas single written all over it, is a big powerful smacker of a love song topped off with massive stadium drums, while 'No One' and 'Denial' show the girls can be vulnerable as well as vixens. Wordshaker doesn't quite escape the curse of filler - '2am' is bog-standard girlband fodder and 'Deeper', the only track they co-wrote, suggests their songwriters needn't head down the job centre - but it hits the target more often that not. Though not quite as impressive as their debut, this is still a confident, fresh-sounding album that should take the group one step closer to household name status. With Sugababes looking as steady as a ship in a thunderstorm and Girls Aloud taking a year out, let's hope The Saturdays can make the most of their opportunity. ^Review from DS -------------------------------------------------- Im really exited now to see how this does. It stands a good chance of top 5 if FIO's sucsess is anything to go by.
October 6, 200915 yr 'Deeper' is the only track they co-wrote? I thought they were writing for the album more? That's what they kept saying in interviews and stuff. Or is it the only track they Co-wrote together? :unsure:
October 6, 200915 yr They've only ever mentioned writing Deeper which is super cute and lovely. They also co-write the FIO b-side.
