I like how each album sounds different. I wasn't really keen on the RnB stuff they did. They suit pure pop much better.

I'm really looking forward to LM's new album
Get Weird was my favourite album of theirs so far! Hopefully they'll come out with a Black Magic pt II that's a sure fire for no1 ![]() I don't see the problem in them releasing an album pretty quickly after their previous. Why not cash in on their success whilst they can? We all know what happened to The Saturdays.. |

LM did a bunch of interviews at their V Festival gig this last weekend and the music video is being shot soon.
Little Mix are shooting a new music video REALLY soon and they've told us all about their new album too Before that very performance, Digital Spy caught up with the girls. And we bring nothing but good news. First things first, they've already knuckled down on their next album - and we're pleased to say they're not going to skimp on the girl power. "We've always loved girl power," Perrie told us. "We're all about feeling independent, feeling confident and strong in yourself. It's honest and stuff that we've experienced. We want to write about things that we can always relate to." "It's cool. It's still very Little Mix," Jade added. "We want to keep our stamp but obviously you change with the times, so I think it's the best of both really." We also got chatting about music videos, because we reckon it's about time we got another one tbh. As luck would have it, they're off shooting a new one very soon indeed. Two weeks in fact, according to Jesy, who remained mysterious about what we can expect. "It's all under wraps," she told us. Grr. |

I dont have a problem with the speed of the creation, which is hopefully due to them getting good material they can go with. What I have a problem with is the shortened timespan for the singles to play out leading up to the album. I really think having 2 singles out for a while that were popular helped convince non fans to buy the album, since they already knew there were probably more songs they would like on it. For this one, the single has from Oct. to Nov/Dec. all on its own to convince people to get the album. Also for GW, Black Magic and Love Me Like You had airplay at the same time which further saturated people's awareness. This time its going to be the one single on air before the album. I think this incubation period is necessary and its going to be rushed and shortened. Maybe the label thinks they dont need it. I hope they're right. |

As a song title 'Shout Out To My Ex' fills me with dread.
I hope Little Mix haven't followed in the footsteps of Zara Larsson, disowned everything that made them popular just to try and appeal to the fickle American market. This is why Get Weird worked so well. It's was packed full of unashamedly brilliant pop music. I hope the song title is a red herring and doesn't sound like a reject from Rihanna's album ANTI(climax).

The title orginally put me off too, but an amazing thing happened when that title leaked from the model's IG. Fans trended it on Twitter and the public thought it was a meme, and trended it worldwide for a few hours. So it clearly hit with the public. This could be a good thing. |

Since nothing ever goes smoothly in Little Mixland, this just suddenly popped up out of nowhere.

There are rumours circulating that the new Little Mix single is going to be released next Friday (16th October).

Still no official peep from the LM camp about anything, although they sent out their "join our newsletter" request which they usually do before a campaign, and they put Get Weird on sale for £4.99 on iTunes, probably to take advantage of interest when the single comes out. They have a bunch of confirmed appearances around Oct. 21-23rd including a rumored XF appearance which would make sense as a big promo push. 21st - Stand Up To Cancer live on channel 4 22nd - Our World book Signing 23rd - R1 Teen Awards & (Rumoured) X factor |

Oops! I meant to put 14th, so just a typo there.
![]() Looks like Shout Out To My Ex is definitely getting its global release next Friday then judging from all the TV promo the girls have got lined up. Unless they hold it back until the 21st so that the TV promo co-incides with the single release? Could Little Mix become the first female act to score a UK #1 single in 2016? It would follow nicely after James Arthur - two consecutive X Factor winners scoring a #1, and a good few years since they won the show. Maybe Ben Haenow is currently recording his shock #1 that topples Little Mix off the top of the UK chart in November!!! LOL

Still no word from Little Mix, but songwriter Camille Purcell posted the artwork on her Snapchat with the caption: "Coming soon very proud of this one" so that's official enough for me.
I saw Cowell claiming JA for loyalty now that his song is #1, which is ironic since Syco dumped him when he was imploding. Here's the releases around the single

^^I'm curious if the almost surprise works with their album. They get a lot of holiday sales but people have to know about it to buy it. Maybe there's a super intense promotional campaign planned so the public cant get away from LM (which could cause backlash, on the downside).

Judging from the release schedule, I can't see any of those singles due for release on the 14th having any impact on the charts. So maybe bringing the new single out this Friday would be a wise move. It might not enter the chart at #1 but as the song increases its airplay on radio and music channels, and more people become aware of the new single (especially if it's another excellent song) then their single could easily get a boost in its second week as it would tie in with their TV promo. If, and this is a big if, the new Little Mix single can reach #1 on iTunes, that might give an indication of how successful the song could become. Even THE Niall Horan of One Direction could only reach #2 on iTunes and couldn't outsell James Arthur on his first day of release. |

They finally said something.
@LittleMix 6m Nothing's official until we announce it 👀🙈 our new single #ShoutOutToMyEx is happening! 🙌 … hope you're as buzzing as us! ❤️❌❤️ the girls x https://twitter.com/LittleMix/status/785185569601007616 There's a video clip of them from the video location in Spain. @LittleMix 39s We’re releasing #ShoutOutToMyEx next Sunday 16.10.16 after our FIRST EVER live performance of it on @TheXFactor!!💃❌ CAN’T WAIT! the girls x Why are they cutting off 3 days of the chart week? They are really confident about the promo over coming the fewer days or they just dont care about the charting until streaming catches up?Or Cowell needed it to bolster the flagging ratings for XF? |

Cowell needs Little Mix to bolster it's sinking ship. The major problem is, how many people are going to bother tuning into a show just to see Little Mix? It'll be on YouTube a couple of hours later so we can watch it there without any padded out rubbish. I'm a bit disappointed that Little Mix have, I suspect, been told to release the single on a Sunday for this very reason. Then again, most singles never peak in their first week, so even if Shout Out To My Ex goes top 20 in its first week, it could quite easily shoot into the top 10 the week after. I just hope the song is strong enough otherwise it could be their first lead single that could potentially miss the top 10 completely which would be shocking coming off the back of such a successful era. Maybe it's time to bring back the pre-order like they did with Black Magic. Those 8 weeks of pre-orders no doubt helped boost the single in its first week at #1. But then, why would someone pre-order a song without hearing it?

If the public likes the song I can still see it debuting high first week on sales alone, if they can get over 30k pure sales. |

Syco mouthpiece Dan Wootton has posted the lyrics to Shout Out To My Ex, and they are definitely more mature and pointed.

What is the deal these days with popstars writing songs about other popstars they've had a relationship with? They are usually some of the worst pop songs written/recorded.
Taylor Swift - Style One Direction - Perfect Ed Sheeran - Don't Ellie Goulding - On My Mind Calvin Harris - My Way Taylor Swift - **first single from next album...SIGH!!!** Zayn - It's You Little Mix - Shout Out To My Ex Maybe i'm reading far too much into this but the song title didn't fill me with hope when I first read about it. If those lyrics are correct then...I'm not really sure. lol I'm already imagining the song is going to sound more like their Salute era and lose many fans who they gained through the Get Weird era. Potential step backwards here.

You're So Vain - Carly Simon
I think if the tune is excellent any lyrics take a back seat although for the above both are excellent. Those are the lyrics, LM tweeted them out. Little Mix @LittleMix #ShoutOutToMyEx 💕 16.10.16…Forget that boy I'm over it! ✌️ LM HQ x https://twitter.com/LittleMix/status/785457694496915456 I'm hoping they arent the full lyrics because I cant clearly make out a chorus and its light on the "happy heartbreak" as Jesy described it. |

Get Weird was my favourite album of theirs so far! Hopefully they'll come out with a Black Magic pt II that's a sure fire for no1 
Looking forward to hearing the new single and album.


They are really confident about the promo over coming the fewer days or they just dont care about the charting until streaming catches up?
