  1. Video shoot? or am I being silly? i guess thats not happening till 'soon' lolly
  2. I think the cover of Word Up is quite poor to be honest, its also a very lazy single choice. I'd guess there is hope that it will duplicate the success of One Way Or Another last year, but i'd guess its more likley to be a #3 hit than a big selling #1. As for NGU, I know it won't be a #1, but i'm hoping for a either a #6 (if they unlock it) or if they go for a pre-album-style-release a #5.

  4. I know right, and single sales actually were the highest ever in 2011 - 2012 so they are definatly comparable! 1D have WMYB - 900,000 OWOA - 469,000 Little Things - 467,000 But thats still nothing compared to Spice Girls! And then theres the albums... Spice Girls - Spice - 3,055,000 Spice Girls - Spiceworld - 1,900,000 One Direction - Up All Night - 1,018,000 One Direction - Take Me Home - 887,000 One Direction - Midnight Memories - 690,000 Spice Girls - Greatest Hits - 460,000 Spice Girls - Forever - 326,000 Total Spice Girls: 5,741,000 One Direction: 2,595,000
  5. :o buzzjack, yall shocked me to the very core.

    I do get annoyed when people compare LM to the Spice Girls though, you cannot compare. Hell you can't even put 1D in the same league as the Spice Girls, people forget that as social media opens up international markets far quicker than the graft acts like SG had to put in!

    Suprised Disco Love isn't top five
  9. I do think White Lies is far superior to Get Ready Get Set but hey ho
  10. missingyou posted a post in a topic in Pop and Country
    Hopefully not, guess a lot will depend on how NGU does, but unlike many bands, the girls genuinly love being together so hopefully they will turf out a few more singles yet :)
  11. LALO, LML and DWYWWM being below stuff like Lies, Denial and Karma is just like actual WTF, crying right now. Still, glad Faster and Chasing Lights made the top ten. If they do a Greatest Hits tour, I expect an emotional performance of Chasing Lights, hell, I'd even like it to be released as their final single! I think it would be a perfect last ever single for the fans. Hope White Lies, Not Giving Up and Last Call made the top three!
  12. If it did go higher than #123 i'd be happy as it would be the highest since 1st December!

    Yeah you are right. In all honesty, I think LM have probably reached their peak. Unless they uncover some monster track. Sats and the Wanted have certainly peaked now, its just interesting to see how long they can sustain the decline. The Sats could probably manage another campaign like this one, or they may decide to just do NGU release full throttle, then announce a Greatest Hits/Tour and split in the winter like JLS did. Same for The Wanted.
  14. It's run has been quite good (compared to Gentleman, 30 Days and My Heart Takes Over!), its just a shame it didn't spend a few extra weeks top 40 to tot up some bigger sales weeks Disco Love 05 - 14 - 30 - 31 - 40 - 50 - 83 - 123 - 166 - 176 - OUT - 194 - 168 - 168 - ?

    Yeah it actually didn't go to plan :/ haha, in my head The Sats would have come off better, plus I got bored half way into it and copied stuff without reading what I copied lolly I think LM have a far better team/far more financial investment and much more tv/radio/gp support due to TXF
  16. LML should be top 10!! :(
  17. so 19-99 :D
  18. OK. Im so over Soon. if its Melanie B or Geri's depiction of 'soon', it won't be dropping this year.
  19. Clicked first page and ah 2nd Advenutre :wub:

As much as it pains me to say it, Little Mix are bigger in the UK than the Saturdays :(
  21. Whether its 150 or 105, im so so happy to see it having a second lease of life :)
  22. I don't really like it that much, its not bad, but certianly shouldn't be released as a single over Faster, GRGS, DWYWWM or White Lies!
