    I hope the girls put up a giant banner in the background that said 'Vote for Frankie on Strictly' during their performance.

    That is properly huge. IndieSats are coming.
  3. I wish they could get a performance in Strictly, to at least boost the GH sales.

    Man, this must have been a really hard week for Pixie. First the chart news and now this. Although, I'm going to be selfish and be happy because Frankie is through and isn't facing one of her main competitors anymore. Actually, Pixie was in the bottom 2 probably because she had the least number of votes from the public, so she probably never stood a chance.
  5. iTunes is not so representative of album sales as it is for singles. It can be very deceiving if you are used to the singles chart.
  6. Pixie Lott's GH album has just missed the top100 on its first week. It's yet another event that makes you see the group's history through a different perspective. That said, if Pixie hasn't been able to give any boost to her career from Strictly, there is probably no hope that the group's profile will be reinforced either.

    Una is, as usual, taking care of the whole promotion of the group there. Sometimes it seems like The Saturdays is a solo act in Ireland.
  8. I'm saving 30 Days, Finest Selection and Missing You.
  9. Apparently they are performing for some First Choice executives in Majorca.

    I'd prefer if Vanessa just released a solo EP while the others are doing celebrity stuff.

    I reckon Frankie will get there. I have a feeling the only reason they didn't give her more 10s last night it's because it's still too early in the competition. None of the four judges had given out a single 10 yet.
  12. In many cases, people have voted for the song and not the video.

    Regardless of who wins eventually, I think it's clear that when Frankie and Kevin go big, there are very few that could rival them. I thought Pixie's tango was nice, but I think the song needed a more aggressive attitude. It reminded me of Frankie's Call Me Maybe, when the dance didn't really match the music. Pixie was more appropriate, but she still wasn't really up to it. Frankie is such a brilliant performer because not only she is technically perfect, but she also adds that extra personality that makes the audience connect with her on an emotional level. I'm so, so proud of her. PS 'America' is still my favourite dance so far. I'd even say it's my favourite Saturdays-related performance.

    This week's dance was sensational again, but it didn't blend well with the song, I believe. They could have been dancing to a completely different track and they still could have made the same moves. Moreover, the song wasn't really engaging, it didn't make you feel any strong emotion.
  15. I'm so excited for tonight's Strictly! I'm sure she'll shine once again!
  16. Some can be mediocre, but only Notorious is actually bad. I save 30 Days, Finest Selection and Wordshaker.

    With Frankie getting so much attention on Strictly, it may be a good idea to convert this into a Christmas Edition of the GH. One CD with the singles and another one with the Christmas songs. They could even extend the campaign into 2015 by releasing 808 or Walking Through the Desert as the 'third' single. This is just the usual hysteria that strikes Saturdays fans before every release. We still get weekly hints at this and we don't know how much time they have left to announce it, as we simply don't know anything about their plans. The girls have entered a break following the end of the tour, so they'll come back once they are done with it. Just calm down and enjoy life while we are waiting for news.
  19. Further singles don't guarantee anything. Not Giving Up didn't do a thing for Living For The Weekend, and it was more loved than almost any track on On You Radar. People may not prefer it, but with 30 Days they got a new top10, better sales than the previous single, and after saving their face they landed a reality show and got a #1 single...so it's not like things didn't go well for them.
  20. Belle Amie, Mini Viva, Girls Can't Catch, the girls who sang Fizzy Letuce...and those are kind of recent. It's definitely not easy for a girlband to have a career.
  21. People need realize that the girls are the first ones who don't want to change their current status. They and their team work as a family and a more hectic schedule, with a management that only works for its own benefit, would have probably destroyed them years ago, like it has destroyed most groups in history. You beg for something different, but we don't know how things could have turned out with other people in charge. Peter has got them international deals, reality shows, producers like Darkchild and Xenomania, collaborations with Flo Rida and Sean Paul, he has launched them individually as celebrities and has made them basically a self-sufficient band. Let's just appreciate the fact they are one of the longest-running girlgroups of the recent decades and that for some crazy reason they've been able to have six album releases, with a seventh one due in a few months.
  22. Well, the fact they have recorded their next album already would say otherwise.

    When was Frankie going to Chatty Man? I thought it had aired already, but I can't find it.

    People on Twitter are really eager to watch Frankie's performance tonight!
