    ^ exactly!! besides the saturdays are very very very GENERIC their image is very boring,basic and bland and so is their image nothing new really.

    Totally agree with everything you said about the sats. But as someone else said they are going to love their image more than their songs. Look at how many followers Frankie has on twitter ! Almost as many as Little Mix. It's not because of her voice...

    Little mix will crack America. The reason is : their music is inspired by US bands and they worked US artists and producers. Their album is tailor-made for america.

    TMS and Steve Mac aren't exactly American :p, and they produced most of the songs on the album. However I do think the album is more American friendly, so hopefully it does better over there (if it's ever going to be released in US)

    All I'm saying is we shouldn't expect them to crack the US so easily or write off the competition.

    One of the main criticism they have is their image (this thread is an example of that) and it's needs to be altered before the international launch imo.

    Everyone knows they can sing...but in today's industry it's not just about the vocals.

    I like The Sats too btw.....so I'm coming from both sides here.

    I wish they could just fire their stylists. I think the girls always look good when they style themselves. We don't need people that don't do their job properly :rolleyes:

    T Boz, Andrea Martin, Jon Levine, Dapo Torimiro are american based producers/artists or writers.

    I'm not expecting them to crack it straight but I hope they give it a big damn try

    I am so shocked lol



    I wonder who in Glee would cover Wings? It would be awesome if LM could get a guest spot in the show.

    I didn't expect Rebecca to do well on the US Singles chart but she did quite well in the albums chart, I think LM will do much better overall though.

    It looks like the are going to be busy next year i really hope it works out for them.
    I just hope they don't leave a massive gap between the next album 2 years is too long

    We wondered what happened to his collaboration with the girls but actually now that I think about it, it was Amazon that put up that tracklist in the first place, the girls themselves and the team have never said there would be a featured artist for the song. Maybe Amazon got the info wrong and we took it too seriously :p

    Not true. In one of their video interviews (was it Sugarscape? can't remember) leading up to the album release they did mention collaborating with him and the other girl group artists on the other songs. So something did change last minute.

    I remember at the time thinking it would be odd to have a male collaboration if the album was to be reeking of Girl Power.

    ^She mentioned the "boyf" in that link I gave. Funny enough her own mother said on Twitter the other day, "No more dogs" because you know who ends up really taking care of them!

    They did it right with Wings, which was why I was puzzled about the DNA single and album campaigns.

    On tumblr people are talking about this guy:
    http://25.media.tumblr.com/ba68575df69d8ed1f2fc34807e25bcc7/tumblr_mf14y2gU2T1rywrhgo2_1280.jpg

    And apparently his name is also Jordan.

    Edit: OK I'm confused now :o. Is this "boyfriend" she mentioned actually a human or was she just being sarcastic and she was actually talking about the dog? :o

    Edit: Never mind I finally understood the tweet! (god that took ages :o)

    Leigh-Anne's boyfriend is one lucky man! Slighty jealous lol :D

    Anyway I was in Tesco's on Tuesday morning and they had quite a lot of Ready To Fly's. I was in Tesco this afernoon and I went down the book aisle to kill time and all the RTF's were gone!! :eek:

    It must be a popular stocking filler/christmas present! :)

    I'm hoping for something like that with CYL they won't get number one but another top 10 would be good. ( hope they appear on DOI too)

    I just have the feeling they are going to do another short trip away to promote wings then sales suffer in the UK:rolleyes:

    Lots of their younger teen fans have had to wait till Xmas for the book and album etc. I've read this so many times on twitter and it's sort of showing in their album sales
