    I'm not really a fan but I do REALLY like the extended mix of All fired up, if anyone can suggest something similar please do.

    If you're a fan of All Fired Up you might like more of their recent work, songs like Get Ready Get Set, White Lies, Not Giving Up and Wildfire.
    I'd suggest previewing their albums on places like itunes and see if anything catches your ear.

    In preparation for Finest Selection (I ordered the super deluxe aaaah) I've been blasting The Sats all week, discovered a newfound appreciation for Wordshaker and today been blasting Chasing Lights.

    I've been watching a lot of their flip videos lately. Listening to them on shuffle seeing as I have the house to myself.

    Previews for the album are not on itunes, 808 sounds FLAWLESS in hq, and all the b-sides sound great as well, so happy with this release. The perfect package to The Saturdays imo.

    I think that it's the perfect buy if you're a casual fan, seeing as it has all of the singles on it. Not sure how this going to do though seeing as their core fan base buy the albums, I can't see those rushing out to buy this when they already have the music. It seems as if this album is relying on the casual buyers.

    Didn't realise that the b-sides were included though. Thought it was just one disc?

    On their website, they are selling a super deluxe version of the album which comes with three discs, one for the hits, one for the b-sides and another for the video's.
    The deluxe version on itunes has 39 songs, including all the singles and b-sides.

    I'm a hardcore fan and have all the albums, but the main draw for me is the dvd with the video's, and most importantly the three new songs and all the b-sides, most of which I've not heard before because a lot of the earlier ones up till about All Fired Up were only available on CD single. So for me, it's like I'm getting a whole album's worth of new songs to listen to, even though a lot of them are quite old.

    One of the girls will be taking to the Strictly Come Dancing floor this year.

    Frankie Bridge is the first celebrity to be announced for Strictly 2014

    Looking forward to seeing her dancing. I wonder who she'll be partnered with?! I'm a big Strictly fan!

    I've just seen the rumour of a Christmas album on another thread.

    That would explain why they're releasing it so soon.

    I'm thinking maybe a Christmas repackage of Finest Selection, 2 discs, first one all the hits and the second with christmas versions of some of their hits as well as some obligatory covers, I think a Sats rendition of Silent Night would be quite special.

    A Christmas album would be good. It's gotta be better than Slade, Wizzard and all the other usual festive crap that gets played year after year after year. We need new Christmas music. Remember Girls Aloud did some Christmas songs as well? They released them as a bonus disc on Chemistry.

    '808' is currenty #500 and #1158 on iTunes and still climbing. Everyone should cherry pick it from the deluxe/original if they don't already have it. Maybe it can get high enough to chart in the top 100/200. :D

    I don't mind 808. I wasn't keen when I first heard it but it grew on me.

    Frankie took on the Ice Bucket Challenge for charity....
