Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

Frankie, Mollie, Una, Vanessa, Rochelle. The Saturdays. From a baton passing of beginnings supporting Girls Aloud on the Tangled Up tour, to their quest for a Number One single, to releasing and touring a greatest hits package bursting with pop brilliance, what better a time to rate their discography than while they are in the midst of a slightly blurry hiatus. With a catalogue eight years in the making spanning four-and-a-bit albums and eighteen singles, plus a hefty pile of b-sides, there is a wealth of girlband goodness to dive into, so here we go!

Rate each song on a scale of 0 to 10, using half points too if you want, and send your completed list to me by PM. You also have the opportunity to award that one extra special song an extra special score of 11, so don’t waste it! It could mean the difference between a song coming in at #1 or #3, and we know all too well how irritating that feels. Commentary is also welcome, and encouraged. I will also stipulate now that there will be no rent-a-rappers being rated here, so I do not want any complaining about Flo Rida, Sean Paul, or Travie McCoy! Although you can moan about Jordan Omley all you like. Also, I’m not keen on faffing around with single mixes and radio edits and what have you, so in the case of tracks like “Up” and “Just Can’t Get Enough” and such, just rate whichever version you prefer, and mention which it is as an aside in your comments if you must.

You have 30 days to vote, that’s Wednesday the 1st of July. Get to work!

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

And I was just saying in the Kelly rate how I finally have only one rate to focus on...

So manys 10's it's not even funny.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

[Banned word that starts with "ya" and ends with "ss"!]

Ooh, I didn't realize they did Christmas Wrapping. Amazing. *listens* Okay, NOT amazing.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

Oh my god, this rate is gonna be so amazing and difficult! So many 10s, no idea what to give my 11 yet.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

"[...] a slightly blurry hiatus."

Amazing.

My scores are mostly done, while the commentary is in the pre-alpha stage. Luckily, there's plenty of time to polish things up. Thanks for hosting the rate, Daniel!. It's going to be amazing!

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

I haven't been tuned into The Sats since the disastrous Living for the Weekend, really, but I'll definitely take part. So much pop goodness in their back catalogue.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

I might join in just to stan for Chasing Lights.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

AAAH so many rates to get through!

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

I love you for this Daniel. I have about 56 11's I could hand out so I'm gonna be destroyed.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

This is so me right now.



Sometimes just seeing a rate get posted can give you life, this is a marquis example of this feeling. I can't wait to grovel at Una's feet with my commentary and bow to Rochelle's greatness throughout. I am not worthy!

I'm going to need all the haters to take their satanic rituals elsewhere during this, unless they vote to back it up (and hopefully the trolls will be filtered out). Let's keep this thread Sats Love Only.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

We're not allowed any -1s? God knows some of their tracks deserve it...

I'm hesitating between three songs for the 11. That's gonna be so hard.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

Indeed they have some nightmarish gems that deserve a hard look for a 0.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

Legit this. They can be out of this world amazing or jaw-droppingly heinous.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

A respectable amount of 10s to be given here but an awful lot of 1s and 0s too.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

If Notorius gets done in the way the UK Groups rate tells me it's going to be done...there will be tears.

 

Re: Lift It Higher: The Saturdays Discography Rate - VOTING OPEN

I genuinely have no clue what Sats songs are popular so this rate will be killer for me.
