The Saturdays
The Sats had no budget though... It was obvious they were clawing cash from all sorts of brand deals to keep them afloat. I don’t doubt they made a lot of money but it was totally different back then labels focused on chart positions / every single needed to succeed with decentish sales... I’m sure they would have looked / seemed more polished if they had more of a budget which included some clever choreo (They tried to stay with old school moves (Steps etc) but times were changing especially half way through the 6 year stint they had.

Sales • Part 2
I can’t wait for the sales update! I really hope we get everything. I hope Cannonball is closer to platinum (Hate the song) but it will solidify another platinum single.

Yeah I agree! I expected a bit more from the interviewers too, like it’s the last interview they’re doing before the break put some effort in! I know they’re busy but they should of done This Morning and The One Show. I’m sure the global livestream would have appealed more to The This Morning audience.

The Saturdays actually made so many poor choices... Following What About Us with Gentlemen... Wordshaker era was so bad (promo wise and the whole styling) Headlines saved it luckily! The campaigns really started to feel meh with Living For The Weekend (The cover was so bland and it was a bit of a mess) It’s a shame as they had some iconic songs (I even loved half the dross) but I can see why sales dwindled with poor decision making / thought. What about us was just the best feeling as a fan though! When that hit number 1 we all went wild!

The interview was a bit meh. I didn’t like when they showed clips from the tour randomly when they tried to speak to Leigh (really odd) The girls were great as always! Sad that the next time we’ll have interviews will be solo bits :(

I’d love them to come back with a dance feature, new album and tour... In reality I went to the Greatest Hits last tour and it wasn’t exactly full (lots of the top rows were empty) And didn’t they have a Groupon deal for half price in some locations?! So I just can’t see it unless they need the money and do smaller tours?! I mean I’m sure they could make money reuniting but not whilst they’re earning decent figures.

Yessss I’m so happy they’ve given us a last interview!

Jesy Nelson - TBA • 1st Album
Her likes on posts are so so so low now, I mean who cares but it does show that her popularity seems to be decreasing with less engagement.

No chance new releases will be ahead I’m sure it’ll be 5/6 again. If they do go with a full live album release they could do it on a quiet week but again they can’t leave it too late after the tour.

Back in the top 10 on iTunes!

Confetti Tour • 2022
I thought it was amazing!! A tour isn’t robotic....it was a special moment. Personally when I go to a concert I love moments like this, it really didn’t go on for long either. Interaction is just as important as the songs, Watching it on a video is completely different to actually being there in the whole moment of it all. Sometimes it’s just nice to see they’re human too (Obviously if this happened in multiple songs it wouldn’t be great but the odd time it’s lovely). I really doubt the people getting engaged wanted LM’s attention either it’s because the songs so meaningful.

Confetti Tour • 2022
I feel like Leigh and Perrie are right back into LM mode again now! They haven’t toured in so long and I think they’d forgotten how much they are still loved as a band and probably how much they adore Being in LM. I love it though!!! All 3 girls look like they’re having the most amazing time!

#THANKYOULITTLEMIX
Incredibly sad but looking at things positively it seems the perfect time. I know we had the two last singles flop but they have ended on a massive high! Sweet Melody getting to number 1, Heartbreak Anthem blowing up, Kiss My doing well and lastly the tour which has definitely solidified why they have been so successful here 10 years on! Jesy leaving, Perrie and Leigh having children it really is time they had a break and start a new chapter. I’m still incredibly gutted that they didn’t just tone down Little Mix for a while though, releasing solo stuff and new Little Mix singles (They could of smashed even more records especially with a couple more dance tracks like Heartbreak Anthem (Tiësto would have been amazing!) It’s starting to become really real - Years on they may never return or when they do it could just be a tour with only a couple of new tracks and it’s likely they won’t get a chart hit again which is pretty devastating. I think it’s worse because it does spell the end of Girlbands (Right now anyway) and it’s very sad that for as long as I remember we’ve always had an active girlband. I’m so excited for the last few days, seeing them and then the livestream I’m going to soak it all in!

Not sure I reckon 8 now tbh. I expected The Weekend and Bloc Party to fall but they seem to be holding.

Probably looking to chart around 6/7 this week. Top 3 are all above 7k already.
-
Between Us • 12th Nov 2021
Don’t think so there’s bigger new releases this week. Blossoms, Future, Ed will still do bigger numbers. Hopefully they’ll stay top 5 though.

Between Us • 12th Nov 2021
The albums up to 13 on iTunes! Would be amazing to see it get back into the top 10

Hoping it stays top 5 at least this week!

Nathan Dawe x Ella Henderson – 21 Reasons
Another basic bop but I’m absolutely obsessed! It’s hardly groundbreaking but I do love all these generic dance songs for the summer!

It’s big but all LM’s sales are streaming points pretty much. #3 has only sold 400 copies since Monday so I guess if the sales tail off completely Between Us could potentially jump ahead it’ll be so close though.

Between Us • 12th Nov 2021
Yeah easily be 4 at least! Very very very small chance of catching 3 but I’m happy with 4!

Even though I’m going to another date I’m definitely gonna grab a ticket tomorrow. I think it will be so emotional!

Confetti Tour • 2022
I feel like it’s pretty much a break up... But we all know they’ll come back with a tour and some new songs one day... Potentially never having chart success now though as a band which is devastating for us fans.
