Or they could easily be a flash in the pan, such as PSY with Gangnam Style. It's such an unpredictable game they're in.

It's all well and good getting views on your X Factor performances, but how will they do if they put out an album? How many of those views are coming from the UK? Which market would they be most likely to survive in - in Kpop, groups like them are so common (and this is coming from someone who likes some of those groups) and in the UK/ Western market they wouldn't really need to work on their diction to make it. I'm not one to go into sales, chart positions, etc. to prove a point, but for a UK girl group made on the X Factor, which most people don't take very seriously, I'd say LM are doing pretty well for themselves

depends on their first single or album... but one thing for sure... they are gonna get signed.

Now if they give them that to sing, I might actually vote for them

Please no!

And that's great for them, but they still have to back up that contract with sales

Lots of artists get signed from XF, it's no guarantee of anything.
In the end it's all about the quality of the songs an artist releases.
Little Mix have produced a very diverse set of materials, the latest songs like BM and LMLY having a very retro fun sound. LM also have a wit and cleverness in their songs which most girl groups don't have.

If you want some proof of LM's vocal abilities ( as if that is needed!) check out the live lounge performances for Radio 1.

Also it was a backing track on the BM mix tonight, not a mime.

OMG group with 10 back up singers???

they should watch this and learn.

Little Mix by far

Little Mix are far superior. It's not even close.

If you don't want the backing singers watch their first and second ones:

And these girls aren't sisters who have had years of practice with one another, these were literally in their first and second years a group. But stay bitter

Tell that to your best girl band in the world next time they ask about 4th Impact... btw they like Alienation more than 4th impact can't blame them... why would they like the group that potentially can replace them.

They have literally been sending support on Twitter for 4th Impact tonight so I don't know where you get the impression that they don't like them? And if they want to like Alien more, that's up to them, it was never a requirement to like 4th Impact, but I don't see any indications of hatred on LM's part so once again, all the bitterness is coming from you

Are you serious????? Haave you heard Little Mix accoustic performances. Start with 'How ya doin?' or their Radio 1Live lounge cover of Holy Grail, Jason Derulo's 'Want to want me'.

Anyway I obviously think Little Mix takes this by a country mile.

4th Impact are great but my issues with them are as follows

1. They all look the same - so no variety (whereas there's plenty of that in Little Mix)

2. They sound the same- so no variety of sound (whereas each member of Little Mix bring a different sound/tone).

Soulless crap actually.....Let it Go from some Korean talent show.
Completely different context as well. Get real.
Identikit band with identikit music. Hopeless.

I hope you had the courtesy to listen to the Radio Live Lounge link I posted by the way.

LM are a far better group than 4th Impact.

Well you just have to look around this board.. and tell me who are bitter? I never posted anything bad against littlemix untill some of their fans here started hating 4th Impact... they can probably foreseen that 4th impact will replace them in the business... I

Yeah like wearing swimsuit on national tv is very soulfull and classy.

If you had front row seats to see 4th impact, looking up to the stage you would definitely hear them but I doubt whether you would see any of them.

Once again, I don't see any evidence of them being replaced? All you have to go on is Youtube views and the fact they will be getting a record deal? That doesn't mean anything, people can lose interest just as quickly as they gained it, and it's not uncommon for a XF act to get signed. I don't see LM being replaced by 4th Impact at all, and the constant implication that they are threatened by potential 'competitors' is hilarious, as if they don't have careers of their own to be worrying about

Soulless refers to the singing nothing to do with the way any of these artists dress, including 4th Impact.

I like 4th Power, but tonight just proved that Little Mix are leagues ahead of them right now.

??? What miming?

You need to win the global audience tho not UK alone. That's the far most important. Even UK based singers know this full well.

Apparently, Philippines is one of the most hotspots of global music amongst Asian countries that UK and othet western singers would dream to crack off, if you want to be recognised globally, as this country is the Social Media Capital of the World..

Agreed

am a LM fan, but i like 4I aswell. I really would advise 4I fans not to bother with LM fans who are nasty. It's just a continuous waste of time. The majority just like one girl group and don't support many others.

I do believe 4th Impact are finally getting the guidance and viewership they have been needing for years now. If they do get signed by Simon(which i think they will), then it will give LM the music needed excuse to leave Simon.

Could really be a win/win for both groups this time next year.
