Parker Bridge was born this morning.

Congrats to Frankie and Wayne!

Congrats to them! Not sure about the name Parker though. Sounds like a pen or even a firm of solicitors

I was going to post a link to this. I was just wondering this morning when the little one would be arriving. I knew that it couldn't be too long.

Controversial: I ADORE the Wordshaker cover, I love the dresses and outfits the girls are wearing, the colours are vibrant and I love it, the only couple of issues I had were the font and that it wasn't zoomed in enough.

So the album charted at 10, pretty chuffed actually, 1 because it's another top 10 album, and 2 because it charted higher than OYR.

That's spooky, as that is exactly where I was when I first heard of the Saturdays!!

Is Parker Bridge an actual place? I've never heard of it

I was joking initially, but now it transpires that there is a true location of that name! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parker_Bridge

There is also a recruitment agency of the same name. http://www.jobsite.co.uk/corpages/parkerbridge/

I think she should reconsider her choice of name. Imagine being named after a recruitment agency or bridge! I said the same when Posh and Becks called their daughter Harper Seven. I said it sounded like a firm of solicitors

The Saturdays covered Drake in the Radio 1 Live Lounge, minus Frankie.

What are your favourites from the new album?

I think Gentleman, Not Giving Up, Lease My Love, Problem With Love and You Don't Have The Right are the best songs from the album. They're the ones I listen to most.

As for the others... Leave A Light On is ok but sounds like a Wordshaker reject. Don't Let Me Dance Alone is just meh and I liked Anywhere With You until I heard the rap. Somebody Else's Life is ok but I can't get used to the dance version after hearing the acoustic version.

I feel the same about Anywhere With You. I only heard the acoustic version of Somebody Else's Life the other day and I really like it.

I can't help but feel that they've become really Americanised with this album, probably to appeal to a US audience as most of the album was recorded out there, I guess.

It's not their best album. I know that I keep saying it but I don't think that they will top Chasing Lights. I like Wordshaker too though it took a while to get in to. I have barely listened to On Your Radar.

I have both the acoustic and dance versions but I prefer the acoustic version. I think it was released in the US this week. I'm still a bit surprised they have a song called Lease My Love. The word lease is a legal term in the UK (I have to use it in Land Law) but is not used in everyday language. I think they use it in the States though? I don't think any Saturdays album will top Chasing Lights. Wordshaker/Headlines were ok but WS felt a bit rushed in spots. It was also a disaster of an era. I loved On Your Radar when it came out.

The song was likely to have been written by a US songwriter which is why they'd have used the word "lease".

Are they trying to crack America next year? I hope they will try again.

If they do try to crack America again they should release Higher with Flo Rida over there instead of releasing new songs and promote the hell out of it. If they had released that in the first place they might have done better in the US.


It's probably a word which is used more in everyday language in the US rather than in the UK. Even here in Ireland it's not really used outside of law.

Mollie signed by modelling agency: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/ar...-Rita-Ora.html

I thought that she was already signed to a modelling agency before joining The Saturdays?

Living for the weekend album is just so amazing
Love all the songs ! but lease my love hasn't grown on me yet , I don't think it will to be honest

Anyone know if the Saturdays are releasing another single after disco love ? (:

The girls covered Drake, TLC and Destiny's Child in the Radio 1 Live Lounge the other day. They also performed "Disco Love"

Frankie & Wayne made their first appearance since baby Parker was born


Yeah, "Lease My Love" isn't a favourite of mine either. I like Disco Love, What About Us (the version without Sean Paul is far superior though, in my opinion), Wildfire, 30 Days, Anywhere With You (I'd like to find a version without the tagged-on rap though), Not Giving Up and Somebody Else's Life (I found an acoustic version which is lovely).

I don't think that it is their strongest album. I think that I'm gonna need to create a playlist with all of my favourite songs on from various albums. Chasing Lights is still my favourite Saturdays album.

This was always my main gripe with it.

I've found all episodes of "Chasing The Saturdays" on Sky Demand. I only got to see one or two episodes.

"Lease My Love" is the song that they had produced by Darkchild. In one of the episodes of CTS he said that the song was "his baby"....I honestly think that it is the worst song on the album. They kept saying in the episode how it could possibly be their biggest hit if he gave the song to them. I keep listening to it thinking that it will grow on me but it isn't. It's really weak

I think that they got blindsided by the fact that he's a massive US producer. The song really isn't great, sadly.

That said, I have been listening to the album a lot lately.

Right...I know that I've criticised this album a bit in places but I've been listening to it a lot this week and I do think that it's solid. It ranks third in my Saturdays favourites.

1. Chasing Lights
2. Wordshaker
3. Living For The Weekend
4. Headlines
5. On Your Radar

I'm looking forward to playing this album in my car when I have a CD player. At the moment (despite being a 2002 car) I have a cassette and the radio.

This is unbelievably awkward...

Mollie and ex David Gandy are seated next to each other to watch the tennis at the O2 arena

You'd have thought that the person sorting out the tickets would have done something. I don't envy either of them.
