Four video teasers have been released so far, with the 5th (Rochelle's) out tomorrow.

Mollie

Una

Vanessa

Frankie

This is out on iTunes on Sunday May 22nd.
The full video RELEASED THIS THURSDAY.

I'd say Frankie and Una have the best teasers. Mollie is just some dreadful chipmunk autotune effect for a few seconds, and Vanessa's is fine but Una definately has the best 'clip' (she looks HOT!) and Frankie's probably gives the best representation of the song.

Could this be their first #1?

Yeah they're trying to pretend Wordshaker never existed. Try their official website, or Amazon or something? It's a really good album, too.

Its removed from ITunes because of Headlines! being much of the same material, should still be available on Amazon though. I still have it on my ITunes, its a shame it sold dismally, its a good album. I guess the release of Cheryl Cole's debut album overshadowed it a lot.

Is the video coming out the same day it goes download or during that first week it's available? If not it won't go to number one on it will peak around probably mid to low top ten this time next week.

The video is coming out on Thursday morning (8:30am) with the iTunes release being on Sunday morning at 00:00.

I doubt it'll debut at #1, probably debut top 15 or something but once the music video builds up on the TV charts and the single gets radio promotion (plus The Sats have a performance on So You Think You Can Dance, plus other stuff) i'm sure they'll get top three again.

Vanessa's is my favourite.

Obviously they're going for autotune, But hey, they're playing the market. Fair Play.

It's definately more where the band should be heading, seeing as their more successful songs have been like this. But a goo ol' ballad like missing you wouldnt go a miss!

Cant wait to see the full vid on Thursday!!!

Higher could've done better in the charts had it not been for the "X Factor Effect" - other songs performed by contestants clogging up the top 10. Stay kept Higher from climbing any further when Cher sang it that week.

It's strange to think they're about to release their 4th album and so is Beyonce, but she's made more of an impact than they have. I do think The Saturdays are under-rated, shame, because they do have potential.

To be fair, though, Beyonce releases about seven singles per album () and spends more time between her album releases (2003, 2005, 2008, 2011). The Saturdays released their first album in late 2008, had five singles from it, then rushed out another album in late 2009 which completely bombed and only had two singles, then they released a mini-album/EP in mid 2010 which again only had two singles and now in mid 2011 they're releasing their fourth.

This is technically only their third full length album after Headlines consisted of material from their second album, too.

And here's Rochelle's teaser Notorious btw....

Liked them at first, but after showing some initial promise they sank into becoming just another generic girl band, and the pathetic desperation to get the boring Missing You to no.1 put me right off them. And the way they always act like dippy, giggling little girls in interviews doesn't help. Could hardly care less about them now.

The production's really nice too but I worry about how this is being promoted.. Time will tell but I wish 'em luck.

Thank christ this isn't a cover of the Duran Duran song of the same name. I couldn't bear to hear them ruin another classic.

I'm not sure Notorious is a proper representation of the album, though. If you ask me, I think The Sats have went down the club/autotune/effect road because it practically guarantees them a hit, which is what they're really needing right now. If they can get a big hit from this, and then release a better single as single #2 (ala Up, Ego, Higher) and then launch the album it's much better than releasing a single like Missing You where it flops miserably and does nothing for their reputation.

If Notorious is huge and hits #1, it'll get them alot of attention and some credibility. I bet their album will continue to be electropop, but let's just say that this is their 'Club Is Alive' for this era.
