So glad they released this, it's the best track on the album. I'd say it's a guaranteed number one.

Oh, and at least the videos are improving. This one is at least a little creative. :tongue:

[Smithy]

i dont think itl get no1 as the able got record album sales
if should do pretty well though

[Chels]

i sflove this song!

[Jack_]

I think for even people who hate JLS they'll like this...it's has a club anthem feel to it.

:p

Okay, exception to the rule then. :joker:

[GhettoSuperstar]

I don't think it's anything special but i'm sure the JLS fans are pleased with it.

I prefer 'Keep You'. Though, I have to say I think the album is a yawnfest.

[KKBL]

I love this song but that video is all sorts of ****. The choreography doesn't fit with song,their acting is awful,they're dressed like women and its really boring just like Beat Again.They're selling more records than Alexandra so I dont understand why their music video's have much lowe budgets?
Oh and Aston really needs to get rid of that silly hair style.

[Vladimir]

hot.

[Adamw92]

**** song and **** video, If this gets #1 I think i'll be sick, it's even worse than Everybody in Love

Admit it, you only hate them to spite their fans because they hate Alexandra.

I'm a fan of both, btw.

[MeMyselfAndI]

awful.

Uhm...no I just hate them and this song, the only song they've released that was mildly listenable was Beat Again and that was pushing it

Even if they did release a masterpiece I still doubt you'd like it though, would you? I'm sure you've even admitted it before. I might be thinking of someone else though, but I'm sure it was you.

Nope sorry not me, I can't stand them or anything they sing, they are too overrated and all about flashing their abs in their videos for me to even begin to like their music

You do realise that's a marketing ploy though, don't you?

[Adamw92]

You do realise that's a marketing ploy though, don't you?

Yes and I hate that it actually works, the fact that they released 5 different versions of their album annoys me too with the single member sleeves, justa cheap trick to sell more copies and there they are, almost to 1 million copies sold while poor Alexandra (who's album actually is GOOD) is only at half of that

You can't blame them though, you and I would do exactly the same in their situation. It's a bit unfair and biased to hate them because they are making use of the marketing oppurtunities they have.

Not really, I wouldn't be THAT desperate to have a #1 album, especially if I'd just had a #1 single, by using these "marketing oppurtunities" though is basically saying their music isn't good enough to sell their album based on the music alone, it's pathetic, they can promote the album plenty of other ways than having 5 covers

Your record label would.

It's not the only marketing ploy they've used though. They've done far more interviews than Alexandra has done (that I know of), I would say their songs get more airplay than Alexandra's and they have an endless list of merchandise. Like them or not, the way them and their record label have promoted themselves (regardless of the music) in the last year has been incredible, and the four colours idea, although so simple, was genius.

And to be fair, Alexandra wears a lot of revealing outfits in her videos to try and attract the straight male attention - another marketing ploy.

[Harry!]

Video still unoriginal. But it is much better then the last two singles. They need to do more dance songs and less r n b songs.

It's unoriginal, but a lot more creative than 'let's stick them in a warehouse and get some hot girls in to dance with them'. I wish they would ditch the cheesy dancing though, but again, another marketing ploy.

This type of song will sell far better than any others I think.

In the Broken Heels video she does, but she wore 1 revealing outfit in Bad Boys which we see for about 5 seconds in total but she doesn't lift her top up every chance she gets, she does it the fair way and lets her songs sell for themselves, It may be genius but it's ridiculous, there's no difference in any difference in the albums, just the covers, they are just overrated and for anyone who falls for the marketing ploy I feel sorry for

In this day and age marketing ploys will get you everywhere to be fair. So regardless of how good your music is, you have to promote it well, no matter how degrading or 'pathetic' it may be. Just the modern world unfortunately.

I don't fall for the marketing ploys, I can see straight through them. I feel sorry for the people who fall for them too but unfortunately they're very naive young girls who are sucked into this kind of stuff. But I still like them, and I'm sure I'm not the only fan of theirs who can see through the marketing stuff.

Well I hope your not one of the fans that bought all 5 versions of the album, honestly I think I'll be sick if they get another undeserved #1, there's some much better songs coming out the same week as this crap.

I'm not that much of a fan! :joker:

I bought Beat Again on download and the album with the original cover. That's all.

[Patrick]

Fed up seeing these guys on the charts, the only reason people buy their songs is because little teenage girls cry for them.

Wish that prick that takes the lead all the time would **** for once too.

This isnt there best song IMO.

Lol the background they sing in front of is so 'XF Winner' Music Video like, Shayne Wards thats my goal looks alot like this

Them vidoes are repulsive I get bored of them.

Easy to market so it will sell well.

Of course, but I don't blame them and neither should anyone else. At least this video is a bit of a change.

[andybigbro]

I olike the song, the video is ok. Hope they do well with it.

[Callum]

Awful song and cheap video. So cringey watching it on TV, they really think their something special when their not.
