LM Wings - "There’s a strong chance this will be Number One until the end of time"

http://www.popjustice.com/briefing/t...bout-it/94855/

What Mr Popjustice has to say about WINGS:

Quote:
There’s an amazing pre-chorus.

There’s an amazing chorus.

There’s an amazing SECOND chorus.

There’s ‘a good beat’.

There’s gloomwobble.

There’s a strong whiff of various different types of Aguilera.

There’s an outro so astounding that it will probably be the best outro of any song to be released this summer.

There’s enough intense greatness in this song to launch Little Mix in at least eight countries that aren’t the UK.

There’s a structure that goes tiny instrumental intro / chanted version of the chorus with sparse drums in the background / first verse (includes gloomwobble) / pre-chorus where it drops out / chorus where it drops back in / second chorus where the song explodes into amazingness / small post-chorus into shorter second verse also with gloomwobble / pre-chorus / chorus / second chorus / breakdown / chorus / second chorus / amazing outro.

There’s a very on-trend anti-bullying message to the whole thing, but it feels like a really breezily defiant and carefree way of addressing it without being too ‘cry in your bedroom and only feel happy when you’re wearing a rasher of bacon on your head at a Lady Gaga concert’ about the whole thing.

There’s a chorus lyric that goes: “Mama told me not to waste my life – she said ‘spread your wings, my little butterfly, don’t let what they say keep you up at night, and they can’t detain you, these wings are made to fly’.” But the ‘fly’ bit goes “FLYYYYYYYYY” and leads into the second chorus, which goes: “We don’t let nobody bring us down, no matter what you say it won’t hurt me. Don’t matter if I fall from the sky, these wings were made to fly.”

(There’s a distinct likelihood that we’ve misheard the ‘detain’ bit to be honest.)

There’s a slight problem with the “these wings are made to fly” line which doesn’t quite work because wings are usually attached to something to make the thing fly. Wings don’t tend to exist to make themselves fly. We suppose this does not necessarily apply to something which is ‘all wing’, for example a hang-glider or a nighthawk stealth fighter, but we don’t think the song’s supposed to be about those things.

There’s a bit where they go “shhh” but they really mean “shit”.

There’s a “HEY HEY HEY HEY” bit.

There’s clapping.

There’s a strong chance this will be Number One until the end of time so the Official Charts Company might as well begin the voluntary redundancies right now because there will be one less chart position to do the sums for as of August 22.
Guess we can add this to the list of glowing reviews about Wings!

Mr Popjustice tends to get very excited when he hears something new and massively overhypes it BUT I am curious to see what Little Mix come out with. I hope it's good.

Yes I've noticed that, he has seemed to hype Amelia Lily too. Siobhan Donaghy, Dean Piper, numerous local DJs have all given it overwhelmingly positive reviews though, as did the vast majority of those who went to watch Red Or Black, so I am hoping it lives up too it now, as I loved the Alan Carr clip.

I think X Factor's Class Of 2011 might be the best year so far. Amelia, Misha, The Mix, THE MIGHTY SHOES.

The awkward moment when an act who got sent home in the first week could end up doing better than last years second place.

Here's a question I'm not sure about. How hyped were the other winners first (non winners) single?

I remember "bleeding love" had big hype in that every one said it would be huge, how good it was, etc. But I don't remember any for he others?

Dean Piper is even worse for overhyping than Popjustice! I don't trust a word he says. Siobhan Donaghy is interesting though, she's a very talented lady (I'm one of the approximately 76 people who bought her album...).

Thanks for the clip, I like the "FLYYYY" bit near the end, it sounds promising.

Haha! Yes, now you've said it I don't think I'll be able to imagine anything different.

Popjustice hype, won't go anywhere if he gets behind it, its a curse - see Nicola Roberts' album.

LM will flop no matter what their fans say. The only reason the group won last year was because the talent was so poor compared to other years.

This, although Amelia wasn't bad for her age.

So what about other seasons that had stronger talent and their winners still flopped?

What's the excuse for them?

Im not doubting that it may happen, but talent has nothing to do with who sells and doesn't. If more winners had commercial appeal, they might not have done so bad.

The problem with LM is they're saddled with the annoying one.I don't know her name - the 'Geri' one of the group? The one who acts as the spokesperson? Her.
