I've grown bored of Gaga so let's talk about someone else! Feel free to discuss her more but now the new artist to discuss is THE SATURDAYS.

I think it could go either way at the moment, They've been quite successful got a tour and are monopolizing on their success with a new album this year. I think it depends on the success of the second album and if their fans are still behind them. If their next album is successful then I think there's every chance they'll be together in 5 years time.

Well, i will always love the saturdays! In my opinion, they are a great band and i hope they are as succesful as Girls aloud! They can all sing live, (Whcich i will be witnessing at theri tour (L)) and i just hope they do not split as they get older

[Harry!]

The Saturdays will always be the underdog girl band imo. You can never compare them exacly to Girls Alod or even the Spice Girls

[Scarlett.]

I like the Saturdays, more so than Girls Aloud and Sugababes, I dont see no reason why they cant still be around in 5 years

[Wildcat!]

THe saturdays?

Cmon!!!

ACtually, come to think of it, since Girls Aloud are still singing, then who knows. They are awful, but Anything is possible in the UK!

[30stone]

I Hope so they are quality.

[Shaun]

Hmm. I'm not sure. I have a sneaking suspicion they'll fail to get a second album deal...and if they do, it'll flop.

The UK I believe has the best music scenes in the world I believe, We've produced some of the best bands of the past (Beatles, Rolling Stones ETC) We have a thriving indie industry, We do pop music like no other country and our rock heritage is legendary.

The likes of Machester, London<<<<<<<<<<<<<<LA, New York any day.

[Wildcat!]

Yeah, I was taling about the Saturdays, and Girls Aloud. Of course the UK have great artist, who said they didnt? I am talking about the lame ones that have been around forever, like Girls aloud. Or the current subject, the flippin saturdAYS


AS for having the best music scene in the world? Ermm dont think so whatsoever! You have some good moments, like last year was pretty good, but overall, its not!

Oh I misread what you said for that I apologise. I'll respectfully disagree with your last statement though but I will enquire your opinion on what country you think has the best music industry and scene.

Lacks variety? what bullshit.

Listen to Just Dance
Listen to Brown Eyes
Listen to Poker Face
Listen to Again Again
Listen to Starstruck
Listen to Paper Gangsta

her music is very variable from pop, electro, dance, techo, ballad-pop, rock n roll, r&b, hip-hop and blues.

Perhaps they put a toe into other genre's but in actuality she's only doen two genres there - pop and electro pop. Pokerface, Just Dance, Starstruck, Paper Gangsta, no variety there.

Lady GaGa can only do two types of song, a stripped back, quirky ballad or a robotic dance pop song. No variety there.

I'm not too sure if she will or not. She certainly has the potential to, but whether or not she'll be able to adapt is a whole new question.

[MrGaryy]

Now for The Sats. Personally I see nothing special enough about them to help them last. However if or when GA split, then that could give them a boost. But if their second album under sells, they'll be dropped.

[Z]

The Saturdays have another year or two in them; but they've not been overwhelmingly popular like Girls Aloud were (and are) when they first started, although to be fair Girls Aloud did have weeks of coverage through Popstars. The Sugababes are gone(?) it seems, so I don't see any reason why the Saturdays can't stick around, although their second album's going to have to be incredible.

No i dont think so. I think they have few more albums coming , but i think there doing stuff atm idk what though.
but Catfights and Spotlights didnt sell very well.

With The Saturdays , Umm well i love them to bits atm idk how long they will last. There 2nd album would have to be proper good. Some GA fans dont really like TS. But good luck to them. I hope they will last longer. And like someone said up there If GA split then they could get a boost. - but i think GA is doing another few more albums.

[KKBL]

I have no doubt that The Saturdays will be around in 5 years time,but whether they deserve to be is another thing.

[supernoodles!]

I don`t think the saturdays will be around in five years time,I just don`t think they have the fan base behind them,maybe two years at most

[SiaSiaSia]

I really doubt the Saturdays will stay around, they had a success with a battered version of Depeche Mode and they're just not that rememberable, i'm surprised they've lasted as long as they have

[Tom4784]

NEXT ARTISTS!

The Ting Tings made a huge splash last year with both mainstream audience and indie audiences. They were a hotly anticipated band. Now that the first album is done and that they are working on a new album do you think they'll be around in 5 years time?

Like with The Saturdays I think it hinges on the second album, If they can show growth and pull out a good second album then definately. Ting Tings are interesting since when they were gearing up their first album they were the critical darlings of both the mainstream and indie scenes. I think it'll be interesting if they choose to focus on one scene or both.

I think they've got a great chance of being around in 5 year's time if their second album delivers, since generally if you can get two good albums out you'll generally be guaranteed a career for at least 5 years. It does depend on which audience they focus on though.

What are your thoughts?

[MrGaryy]

I think they will definitely be around but not to the same degree of success as in 2008. The novelty has worn off for people now, only the hardcore fans will remain interested. Unless of course they decided to go a new direction such as electropop then that could secure a year or two more at the top.

[Me. I Am Salman]

This was interesting to read

I think 5 years from now Rihanna will still be one of the biggest pop stars on the planet along with Katy Perry and Beyonce.

[Ninastar]

I honestly will be surprised if in 5 years time, rihanna is still going.

[Me. I Am Salman]

She's been the biggest pop star since 2007, I really don't think that'll stop stop anytime soon

[Ninastar]

You think that, honey

[Me. I Am Salman]

There is absolutely no indication that she can't be

[Joelle.]

These KFC gifs crack me up

And as long as Rihanna keeps up the one album a year thing I don't think she'll disappear anytime soon.

tbh I hope she goes away for about 3 years or so and then comes back with another Rated R
