"It’s a shame, then, that their most solid visual is paired with their weakest material. ‘Move’ musically sounds like a late and delayed take on Robin Thicke’s ‘Blurred Lines’. Of course, it’s industry routine to rehash whatever is popping; yet from where we’re standing, the ladies should be releasing “in your face, statement records” at this point – cuts that don’t just grab you, but shake you ala ‘Free Your Mind’ and ‘Lose My Breath’. This being especially important as they’re a) heading into the ever-risque sophomore territory and b) actively trying to break markets beyond their Brit-Pop base."
That YouTube channel that had the Celebrity Juice clip also has Girls Aloud Ten Years on Top so I'm watching that now to learn about them. Its fun to compare where LM are now against the GA timeline.
THIS :') . That's what i have been doing ever since I've been a fan of little mix 2yrs ago :L
I've listened to the album recently, and i can now say that Competition, Salute, About The Boy & They Just Don't Know You, are my ABSOLUTE FAVES They're EVERYTHING I've ever wanted them to do since their debut :'') Although I can't get enough of Completion and Hoping and praying for them to release it as their second single
I agree. I like Little Me the studio version very much. Also think Towers would work, it sounds like a great UK 'winter' single track and I think it could get number 1 with great promotion.
That's what I feel as well, but I feel like it'll only work during the festival period, so I hope if they want to release a ballad for the next single they'd push it for a Dec release.
Edit: A performance of Salute on Dancing On Ice will be immense!

I kind of agree with this review :L That's why they should either release Salute or Competition as their second single. MAKE IT HAPPEN.
Why do you hate to admit it? I think its really heart pumping.
Because i thought it was really cheesy. Everybody kept saying it was like Beyonces song and the preview sounded like it and im not much in favour of her song.
As I'm still waiting for my signed deluxe CDs,
my powder is now so dry, it's becoming dust
I'm not giving any opinions until I've actually listened properly several times...:p

I am all for Salute. Its their new statement song. I guess the UK is big on "winter ballads" and Xmas number 1 but we don't have that in the US so for here its gotta be Salute to rouse the troops.
I agree re the longevity - I'm not quite sure it'll manage to outperform 'Wings' but it looks set to fair better than their last three singles anyway. It's a very good sign that it's back up to #2 on iTunes - I think 'DNA' had fallen to the lower end of the top 10 at this stage last year.
Watching ITV tonight, I've noticed advertisements for both Keane's and Celine's albums - has anyone seen any for Salute yet?
Yup, this afternoon on ITV 2 in between You've Been Framed lol They showed a snippet of the Move video and the album cover. First time I have seen it considering it's out Monday.

Have you pre-ordered your copy of #Salute yet?! If you pre-order the deluxe version on iTunes, you'll get SIX tracks before the album drops on Feb 4! Get all details in the girls' video message below & pre-order your copy right HERE!
Lol just watched this WTF lol. Jade's awkward face though haha
She was like "do I really have to bang this man's butt " lol. I also noticed she looked really awkward and uncomfortable on Celebrity Juice as well, and this is why I don't think the Facetime story is as bad as it seems it might be.

They mentioned that they'll be doing single 2 on Jingle Bell Ball. I guess we'll find out what the 2nd single is soon.

:eek:
Was that a well placed AHEM from Leigh to prevent Jesy from spilling?
If your talking about CiN rocks I would imagine a few songs since its a concert. Wings, DNA and Move I would guess?
If your talking about the actual show on the Friday, Are they even on it? I would imagine it would be Little Me.
On where? As I dont think Suprise Suprise is Live.
Mine hasn't even been dispatched yet!

I may have to rethink my "physical only" policy.

Looks like they are really pushing for album sales there.
