Editorial Reviews

2010 release from the British Pop divas. While Girls Aloud and Sugababes may get more press, The Saturdays are fast becoming the most popular UK female pop act of the year....if not the decade. Headlines is an eight track release featuring the singles 'Missing You', 'Ego' and 'Forever Is Over'. Polydor.

This review is from: Headlines (Audio CD)

I read other reviews before saying that this album was a dissapointment because it features tracks from the previous album. That's true, they tend to do that a lot and they need to stop. But this album is not horrible. This is my rating for each song:
1. Missing you- I didn't like it when I first heard it but its pretty good, its a powerful ballad with an upbeat tempo, so therefore great to sing and dance to. Una has no vocals on this but if you have an ear for music, you can tell that her voice doesn't fit in there, her voice is very soulful and acoustic and doesn't fit with the vibe of of the song. 5/5
2. Ego, the first time I heard this song, I was hooked. All of the girls sound great on it, it may be a repeat but it belongs on this album.5/5
3. Higher-Another great track, sounds a bit like ego, too much autotune. Mollie has no solo in this but she would have fit great on this track, great danceable track with memorable lyrics and chorus.5/5
4.Forever is Over- Another repeat off of "Wordshaker". I understand why they jumped on this track when they first heard it. THe harmonies are great, the song sounds great but this is not a "Sats" sound. This song was gonna go to Pink or Kelly clarkson. I think either of these ladies would have sang it way better. Kelly might have overdone it and Pink would have rock& rolled it too much, but who knows. The sats did what they could with the song, in my opinion, only Una, Vanessa, and Rochelle sound good on this good. In reality, Vanessa sounds great in the chorus but Una could have carried the song by herself in a different key because she has a great acoustic voice. 3/5
5. Died in your eyes- Great ballad, remake but I'm suprised at how good they sounded on this song, especially Rochelle singing out of her comfort zone and she killed it!!! I'm not too fond of this song but they did a great job on this, so to be fair 4/5
6. Karma- Another great song and well structured, awesome harmonies, you can hear Rochelle and Una's harmonies really well at the bottom and Frankie on the melody. This sounds a lot like an american songs and Vanessa ends the song really well. 5/5
7. Puppet- Intro sounds very much like a song Britney Spears would have sang back in 2001. It's saturdays style but at the same time very sexy. Rochelle's vocals in the beginning make the song what it is and the autotune on Vanessa's vocals give the song seducing edge. Frankie really pushes on this song and she sounds good, she should be less fearful to sing. I love the bridge when Una sings and the talking bits make the songs all the more powerful. The only parts that I found annoying are the La la la's sung by Mollie. 4.5/5
8. One shot- The third repeat of "wordshaker" and the last track of this EP. I loved the song when I first heard it and I love it still. I like the tweeking that they did. I believe this should have been their first single off of "wordshaker" then the album would have done much better because it is a great album. 5/5
Upside- Great dance/ techno/pop/rock album and I got an autographed album which was really cool, I've never gotten anything autographed before.
Downside- songs tend to sound a little bit alike and I was really dissappointed to find out that as a US buyer, I could not access the extra features which was a real blow and Polydor needs to fix that if they hope for the sats to break into the US. Americans won't want to be interested if they can't find out much about the girls. Think about this Polydor!!!
