As long as it isn't the most certifiable girl group, they're fine.

They were running from the Madhouse, though.

Yes, lyrically it is the same nature just telling a slobby boy they're not interested until he get's his life together. There is a lyric about acting like a man meaning to stop being so childish, absolutely nothing about being masculine.

The song is literally no different to SOTME saying "Shout out to my ex, you're really quite the man" in a sarcastic way. Both using 'man' to mean irresponsible/childish.

We should probably take it as a good sign that the media are even bothering to twist what they're singing/saying, it obviously means they think stories about LM earn them cash. It's just annoying when you hear the song and wonder how people manage to come to such a conclusion.

Controversy Mix in da house. It all draws attention to their music, so fine.

I wish I played the sax. I would do a social experiment and play SOTME in the subway and see how a completely neutral crowd receives it. I think in fact, this would sound great in the subway with the reverb.

For anyone worrying that Columbia isnt paying attention.

Last Sunday I posted a screengrab of their flyer right after posting and since its probably composed on a Friday during the work week, the video view was originally "10 million in 3 days". At the time the views were coming in really fast and by Sunday outdated. They updated their own flyer to "15 million views in 3 days". That was the difference from Friday when they made up the flyer to the Sunday. They are watching this.

First flyer http://imgur.com/FH0zXBM
Updated flyer http://imgur.com/a/YiA2E

The figures were fudged a little, the video didnt hit 15 million until 96 hours.

did the usual "little mix song" search test on twitter, consensus seems to be it's good but the lyrics ruin it and people are ashamed of liking it. obviously it's nice that they still like it but it's like the reaction went backwards from SOTME where people weren't ashamed anymore of liking it

one thing I can assure you of, cv, is that YGN will be on the "worst songs" by spectrum pulse when he reviews it, considering his thoughts on Meghan

Exactly. We're trying to lose the 'guilty pleasure' tag here!

Yeah, SP will HATE it and I'm not sure I'd disagree with him. All I hear is 'My name is NO, my number is NO...'

Its a nominal instant grat track. Its not a lead single or anything. I think you guys are blowing its importance way out of proportion to what it actually is.

It seems to have actually boosted their Youtube streaming today if anything, although that could just be the start of a weekend effect. Curious to see what happens with the next batch of Spotify numbers.

That would be the behind the scenes video, right? The instant grat isnt officially on YT.

An album track is all it is and there any number of album tracks from GW that are much better. It just sounds like an outtake from a Meghan Trainor album.

I can't help laughing. I have a new guilty pleasure ( without any guilt! ) I've had YGN on repeat all day. I'm addicted. Why over analyse a fun song anyway. My behind won't stop moving I wish I knew what makes one person love and another hate a song.

I mean, how many stupid songs became chart toppers over history. I could name a few.

Felp: so what? There's some other LM album tracks he didnt like either.

I really want to hear what he thinks of Shout Out to My Ex.

He seems most interested in production, so not sure what he'll make off it.

Interestingly, he loved the production on Girls Aloud's albums even though they were nothing more than industry puppets.

Hellooo...

Bit shy but I thought I'd finally introduce myself. I am Jack! Normally a bit of a punk/metal head but I saw the girls three years ago and they were amazing. Been a fan ever since. If I weren't gay as... well, a pink poodle, I'd like to think Jesse and I would be married. .

Cheers.

@Batchelorette4 your day just got better! Your song SHOUT OUT TO MY EX by @LITTLEMIX is about to play on 947! http://ftur.io/5GDP68


San Francisco station Wild 94.9 played SOTME on Wed. and last night, around 10 and 9 PM respectively. Maybe they're thinking of adding it.

Its a welcome! What makes you like them since you are more into Punk/Death Metal? What crosses over for you? is it just performance skills? Very curious to know.
