Her and Beverley Knight NEED to start getting recognised on a bigger scale but i think both artists could have their years next year. So happy Keisha is back, although im not sure about her new look.

How come you cant watch the show on ITV1 Bert?

'You On A Good Day' ... No better than a b-side in my opinion, sometimes repetition works but this is a case where it really doesnt. Really lazy IMO and the production at the end isnt great, they need to turn up Keisha's ad-libs. The part at the start just made me dis-like Amelle (just a little) for the first time, talk about naff! 'Unbreakable' ... I love this, its simple but the production is amazing. I love Amelle on this, she really brings a rawness to the tracks over the other girls. VERY nice harmonies too. 'Sunday Rain' ... Going down the Duffy and Amy route rather blatently. Nice vocals and the end of the chorus is nice 'Always comes sunday rain', lovely hook. Keisha really suits this. Got a little bit boring but nice track overall. 'Sound Of Goodbye' ... Dont like the verses but the chorus is rather nice indeed, Amelle is lush on the second verse. 'Side Chick' ... This sounds like a mix of 'Back Down' and '3 Spoons Of Suga' from Change and i hated them both so you wont be surprised to know that i dont like this song very much. 'Like A Star' ... Nice addition, the girls are actually the only reason i like this song! 'Nothing's As Good As You' ... Lovely start up from Heidi, Amelle's verse is lovely too and so is Keisha's part!! Amazing track, my favourite so far! 'No Can Do' ... Very Jackson 5 esque intro. So its the 'next single' ... hmmm, its quite catchy but nothing special. The ending with Amelle looping, Keisha's ad-libbing and Heidi's last words is great though. 'Hanging On A Star' ... I LOVE THIS ALREADY - just up to the intro. WOW, nice vocals all round. The spoken verses by Amelle work really well and the guitar helps the chorus so much, its so sparkly. The 'tell me baby baby' part is lush!! MY FAVE SONG ON THIS (after listening to it all and editing this!) 'Girls' ... Well i think everyone knows what i think of this. To be fair though, it has grown on me and for some strange reason seems to fit well on the album. 'Every Heart Broken' ... My favourite ballad, the strings are gorgeous. AMAAZZIIINNGGG! 'Can We Call A Truce' ... Amelle is beautiful at the beginning. OK, how much does the start of Keisha's part in the first verse sound A LOT like EHB's verses?! Its ok, but nothing special. 'Beware' ... Dark, sounds rather nice actually. Case of verses beat chorus' IMO. 'About You Now' ... Lovely finish (as i know it does on the tracklist), a little flat on the chorus - i think mainly down to Amelle but overall a beatutiful rendition. Overall, nice album allbeit some tracks forgettable but a lovely listen sat at the computer. Fantastic vocals overall, some songs a little samey but apart from that this makes a good album.

Theres one song leak. Girls Aloud - The Promise (LOL!)

I dont know whats going on but it looks like the live albums tracklist (from Woolworths) is this... Kind of nicer in a way, a more varied album that in a few years time will sound better to put on than just mostly tracks from TU era.

AMAZING episode. I dont think that was Nial physically, it was just to represent him always being there in peoples heads mentally. He finished up at Hollyoaks a while ago and hasnt been back since.

I thought this was called 'Dont Go Out Tonight'?!

OH MY! Everything is screaming out for this album to be a hit!

No way will Leona do better than GA next week!!! Hardly anyone knows when 'Forgive Me' is released! It wont go anywhere near top 5 until her performance on X Factor. Think about it, AMLT - X Factor, BL - X Factor, BIT/FITS - Comic Relief ... she wont do well until her promo kicks in. 5,000 sales already in the bag + no.1 on pre-sales at HMV + available 1hr30mins after a performance in front of 11 million people + physical available the same week + GMTV and a performance on Friday Night With Johnathen Ross = GA's 4th No.1.

Could anyone send me the link, or in the right direction for the album?

Oh, ive just realised that mine is pretty slow so it probs is at #2!!!

Apparently PJ has said its got so many things seperating CTS and its by far stonger. It has a double chorus, so when we hear Nicola towards the end - thats still the chorus. Think this is going to be a fan fave (agreeing with PJ) and so will the album.

At no.3 again - 11pm.

No problem, its only the people above them in the midweeks that are threats, i dont think anyone new will move into the top 5 some sunday so no problem with them being at #3 on iTunes. Great review from the Guardian, quite nice of them really. I can see this album doing a little better than i thought actually!

#5 for The Saturdays is amazing. TBH i think most people (me included) thought this might not even scrape top 10, so to sell over 1/3 of 'If This Is Love' total sales in their first week and to go top 5 is incredible.

What do you think will be above it?

Im off to Woolworths too! Its bloody fantastic all of this, we're so spoilt! Anyone heard 'The Loving Kind'? A clip and review has surfaced on popjustice.com ... after 5 listens it is officialy one of my fave GA songs ever, Nicola sounds incredible towards the end.

By who?! There's always been big threats, but next week there isnt. All the artists in top 5 will weaken by next week making the way for GA!

News on a fan edition and LIVE ALBUM on the first page!

Its average, but you know what *SHOCK HORROR* ... i actually prefer 'Girls' (and thats saying something). I havent heard the album in full (as i bought it for £8 i may as well wait to listen to it) but i can make assumtions on 30 seconds as thats what most people see/hear when they switch a tv channel/radio station and i think this is a bad choice of single, im not sure what they are playing at but i do think this project could potentially go t*ts up unless the Suga die-hards get buying in bulk.

The girls were great, esp. 'Stop'. It wasnt their greatest performance of 'Girls' but ahh well, doesnt really matter as thats done and dusted (thank god!).

It deserves it over Geraldine and Leon without a doubt, Pinks had too long and so has Kings Of Leon. Btw, Geraldine is nowhere near #1 this week with the show airing last sunday so she will peak this week, then either stay in and around top 3/4 or (most likely) drop. I think, if anyone, it wont be him/her stopping the girls.

But she said those exact words, so she did say it! Thats the one thing im getting at here thats all! It was of course taken out and of context and provoked but she still said it and IMO made her sound rather immature.

EXUSE ME, i have indeed bought it.
