    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.
  2. 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
  4. LML should be top 10!! :(
  5. so 19-99 :D

As much as it pains me to say it, Little Mix are bigger in the UK than the Saturdays :(
  9. Whether its 150 or 105, im so so happy to see it having a second lease of life :)
  10. 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!

Work is too slutty, Gentleman is too cheap and Issues/ITIL are boring
  18. Oh is it love that's in the air?...
  19. Wordshaker was handled perfectly - it was still a top 10 album and followed by their best album charting to date. In reality the girls only had to record five tracks, which meant the label didn't fork out a tonne more money but got the 250,000 sales they needed for Wordshaker, so it balanced everything out. It also meant the girls had 3 top ten albums. On Your Radar, again, was the right thing to do. I know it had a lot of great singles, but the single campaign for MHTO was doomed from the go, they released in a ridiculously busy Q4 - which they should never have done, they were a member down during the promo. Yes, Faster would have been a good single choice, but it would be a huge risk and would unlikley help sell the album. Releasing 30 Days was smart as it was new to attract a wider fan purchase and kept them in the public eye in 2012. Also, including Turn Myself In was very wisdom for trapping fans into buying. TWYWM would have flopped harder than MHTO, GRGS is a fan favorite but isn't as strong as Faster. DWYWWM and Last Call were the highlights of the record but would not have transitioned into commercial successes, despite their utter brilliance.
  20. i still dont get if i did it write or wrong :/ lolly
  21. If somebody else is having a baby or somebody is having another, they should just wrap it up. I can't take another pregnancy. Poor Peter! EDIT: By wrap it up, I mean the band, not anything else lolly
  22. I think it will be NGU in March April, May will be holidays and solo projects June, July, August will be the usual roadshows September - tour rehursals October - tour November - Greatest Hits and Single December - christmas promo
  23. wow @ the first 'Fall' - I want it. its better than the CL one! @)
  24. I think they will all be on TV in some form, but more specifically... Rochelle - will release a single will Marv (like Peter and Katie lolly), TV personality for sure, maybe talent judge, reality show at home with her and Marv on itv2 [Cheryl] Frankie - will have a stab at a single, probably become a collumist and TV personality. Maybe even go into management in the music industry [hint of Mel B] Mollie - she will be the VB of the band and focus on fashion, regular in magazines and such [Victoria Beckham/Nicola Roberts] Ness - complete music focus, CBB/IACGMOOH! type thing at some point, release music to critically acclaim, not commercial [Melanie C] Una - very similar to Roch, would release something, TV chatter, clothing line for kids, radio DJ maybe? [Emma Bunton type]
