The Cheeky Girls, sadly, lack the sex appeal to really win over the teen pop market and the songs are shit (which is secondary to the sex appeal in the market they are in, but without even that they seem fucked).
One True Voice - well their new single sucks too, but the one with the long black hair is super fit and they all seem to have been picked on how good their legs look in short skirts, so who knows? Maybe they'll sell a few records.
But anyone else feel the market is now dropping for teen pop as Avril Lavigne and Christina actually make a feasible attempt at selling some sort of emotion to the kiddy pop market?

its taken quite a while for Girls Aloud to get a new single out don't you think? whats going on there? and what of One True Voice themselves? is their career over after their debut single only made a pitiful number 2 in the charts?

You're right - I meant Girls Aloud. I don't pay attention to their names, I only know I like the lady with the dark hair and the long legs.
Come to think of it, what has happened to the boy group? Have they given up on them?
If I'm drunk at a nightclub I really can't see myself dancing to The Cheeky Girls (I'll leave the floor at few things but Geri Halliwell, The Steeotraviscoldplays and Eminem will do it) but I imagine I'd boogie to Girls Aloud if I was intoxivated enough.

1) is the new single a ballad?
2) do they sing it whilst sat on stools, then stand up for the 'rousing' bit, or does Mr Walsh just do that for Westlife? If so, has he decided that Girls Aloud's 'gimmick' is to be that slightly naff microphone shoving thing?
As for One True Voice - they just seemed fucked when Waterman got adamant about them being a male vocal harmony group. Perhaps he was attempting to nark Walsh by showing that he could actually make an exact clone of Westlife. Either way, he's naffed it up a bit.
