Chemistry

It was very instant for me. I remember hearing Just Dance for the very first time around April/May 2008 and something immediately clicked with me and I basically was a full stan right from the start, hoping so much that Just Dance would become some kind of hit. Little did I know she would be the biggest pop star in the world in a years time. I would say that 2009-2011 was definitely my biggest stan period for her. I am still a very big fan but the obsession I had back then was on another level.

Ah that makes sense, so she was at the London location! I was already so confused :lol:

How did she go to both Bafta's and Critics Choice ON THE SAME DAY? :o :o That's quite impressive, she must have been so jet-legged.

Agreed. It's crazy to me how she is only the 181th most listened to artist in the world considering her legacy and impact.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Mine just arrived as well! :cheer:

I don't think I want any of them to win :lol: But if I had to pick, Blu. Although I fear Baga will take it since Ru seems to be obsessed with her.

This show has really turned into a joke. I don't believe for one second Blu herself picked Pangina, surely the producers have had a big part in this and it just doesn't make any sense. The two best queens are gone and none of the five left even deserve to win. Janey was clearly the worst of the bunch this week and I don't understand why they are trying to make her happen. The cancel culture chat was cringeworthy to watch as well. Obviously Tory Chipz was problematic as always (I honestly don't believe she has changed a bit since her 'vote Theresa May' piece) and Janey is the most obvious example of a Dutch white gay who is ignorant and only cares about "diversity" when it involves gay or queer themes. Blu saying she takes everything back now because it was filmed ages ago is also a bit strange, it was a year ago, not five years ago. Sure people grow and learn, absolutely. But after everything that has happened in 2020 and you still don't realise this, until the only black queen steps up and says something is very telling. To end on a positive, Clara Amfo was a joy to watch as judge and nice to see them pushing an Alexandra Burke song.

I really hope they don't do this and support the toxic and racist system that is the British monarchy.

True, but I live in the west part of the country which is the furthest from the German border. Unfortunately! I think I'll ask my friend in London to look for it.

Ah lucky you! :heart: I just checked again but unfortunately still wasn't there.

The tracklist of all the re-issues is on their Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/plasticpoprecs/. Every release will have some bonus tracks.

Woo for the 1 copy on Sunday :cheer: I think the result is fairly good, considering the fact it's her least known album and Plastic Pop REcords is still very small. Also imagine he sells quite a few international copies that won't count towards the charts.

Very exciting indeed, although I fear it will be a UK drop only. It's not listed on the Dutch list :(

Very good news! :cheer: RSD releases always stress me out a bit, as usually they are quite exclusive, so I hope I'll manage to get a copy.

Plastic Pop Records posted yesterday that, I think from this week onwards, they are indeed chart eligible. Which is pretty exciting to see.

Yes! I really like the design and will be a cute add to the collection.

It was a fun episode, with a very disappointing outcome. I do get Pangina, if she was making her decision on the challenge itself, Jimbo was definitely the worst. BUT JuJu is still giving us nothing, she has had her chances and keeps disappointing. Also her runway outfit was, again, a choice. Pangina is a very deserving winner though. She did so well and that lip sync, wow. I have to see Janey impressed me during the challenge as well, although the lip sync really felt like "person at the club doing a dance". And that outfit :lol: Yikes. Loved the fact we got a Vengaboys song though. And how cute is Jonathan?? And Baga just needs to go. So unprofessional. That constant moaning because you didn't get the thing you wanted? Get over it, girl.

Which is just as bad as The Daily Mail, isn't it :lol:

Haha, yes indeed. And that's not even R&B, maybe a bit influenced, but I would still call it a pop song :lol:

I am SHOCKED Song 4 Mutya is out... What's up with this Mutya erasure :(

Welcome to the fourth round! We say goodbye to two songs; Jade's second solo single My Man, which was ironically released in the week she joined the Sugababes and, quite a shock, Mutya's second single off her debut album Song 4 Mutya. Results 09. Song 4 Mutya (Mutya) --. My Man (Jade) 11. This Is Not Real Love (Mutya) 12. Just A Little Bit (Mutya) For round 4 you can rank the remaining 8 songs from best (8 points) to worst (1 point) Real Girl B Boy Baby Overrated Twiste of Fate Don't Give It Up So You Say It's My Time Never Leave You

Thanks to tommie for the idea! Let's use this topic for all upcoming events and gigs the 'Babes announce. So far: • Mighty Hoopla 4 June 2022 * Glastonbury 24 June 2022 • Colour Boxx 25 June 2022 — Cancelled * Supporting Westlife 8 & 9 July 2022 • Standon Calling 22 July 2022 • York Racecourse 23 July 2022 * Margate Pride 13 August 2022 • Big Feastival 26 August 2022 • Victorious Festival 27 August 2022

Fantastic setlist! I understand why some fans maybe miss a few of the singles from other records (Think About It would have worked quite well), but with this show and style, I don't think much of the more rockier stuff would have worked. Although I'll always miss Next Best Superstar which is one of my Melanie favourites. The videos looks so good as well and make me even more sad she cancelled the European dates :(

I honestly thought Jorgeous was going to be in the bottom.... and then she WON. What? I just don't understand the judges this season.
