Just to clarify, I stated that I wasn’t a fan of the song, but that I was sure there were fans of it. Not everybody has to agree on whether it is good or not, but nobodies opinion is greater than another.
For me, it just wasn’t what I wanted or needed from the Saturdays brand, especially when they delivered such a strong start.
In regards to the notion that just because it got to number 2 is must be a good song, doesn’t hold up.
Many songs in the history of the charts have charted at number one or two but doesn’t mean they are great. This is just an indication, just like many songs that reach the top spot. that they could have been at their peak, that it was heavily promoted, sales may have been achieved through continuous in-store signings, releasing multiple formats or that the song connected with the general public at that time.
Yet, coming back to the song in hand, I don’t ever feel it’s one that people cite as a top Saturdays song, one that is played in radio or in public or a song that is widely remembered by the public, that title often goes to ‘Higher’, ‘What about Us’ or ‘Ego’.
