Welcome back . . .

BOYS ALOUD!

With all the excitment surrounding the up and coming release of the new Girls Aloud single our memories were suddenly cast back to Pop Stars The Rivals. What ever happened to the rivals - Boys Aloud (One True Voice OTV) - nothing! But they did have one fairly decent single, Scared Trust which charted at number 2!

One True Voice - Sacred Trust


Don't even mention the second single . . .

GIRLS ALOUD SEXY! NO NO NO

Wow, like buses you wait for a good new pop single then they all come along at once - Pop fights back!
The G'aloud are back with their new single, Sexy! No No No. Released September 3rd. It's very Girls Aloud and we love it!

Girls Aloud - Sexy! No No No


Though nothing will ever beat Whole Lotta History - A true Popplastic classic up their with the Spice Girls and Viva Forever!

Girls Aloud - Whole Lotta History


I'm damned if I do and I'm damned and if I don't ...


No no no no, yes . . .

CANDIE PAYNE - ONE MORE CHANCE!

More like proper credible music than popplastic trash but we're lovin' Candie! Compared to the likes of Dusty Springfield and Nancy Sinatra, Candie is the sister of former Stands frontman Howie Payne and Sean Payne, the drummer of The Zutons.

Check out her website and myspace.

Candie Payne - One More Chance


Credible music, shame on Popplastic . . .

SHAYNE WARD - IF THAT'S OK WITH YOU!

Wow! What a week for fabby gossip on new releases, X Factor's Shayne Ward is back with a great new single. If That's OK With You is the first single from his new up and coming album.
Since hearing the news of the forthcoming release from one half of the boys from Schlager Towers it's been on repeat here at Popplastic Towers, it's more than OK with us, we think it's awesome and we're loving the inclusion of Alvin and the Chipmunks as backing singers! Alvin, Simon - Theodore!

Released on Monday, August 20 2007

Shayne Ward - If That's Ok With You

SUGABABES EXCLUSIVE!

OMG! The babes have got a new single coming out and naturally the girls wanted to talk exclusively to Popplastic!

The Babes are back with a new single - About You Now - the first track from their as yet untitled 5th studio album. Popjustice have said "it's amazing and called it "a barnstorming pop-electro-rock masterpiece", but more importantly Popplastic think it's Stifftastic with a particular relevance and we can't wait to hear it in full! Even the radio release date is about you!

The Babes official website describes it as melodically captivating and it's chorus utterly hypnotic. ‘ABOUT YOU NOW’ is an anthem for anyone who’s ever chucked everything away then immediately regretted it – or anyone who’s ever wanted to hear those words from someone else’s lips.

Available for download from September 24th or hear it first on Jo Whiley's Radio 1 show, Tuesday 14 of August.

KILLER THRILLER!

Strictly Come Dancing meets Guantanamo Bay!

1,500 Philippine prisoners dance to Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ at the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center (CPDRC) in Cebu, Philippines. Among their other hits are “I Will Follow Him” from Sister Act and “Hail Holy Queen” from Sister Act 2 and they also performed Queen’s “Radio Gaga”. Their next routine is set to be a re-working of the Vanilla Ice classic, Ice Ice Baby.



It's like being in prison with Steps . . .

LIBERTY X

Liberty X call it a day!

Flags are flying at half mast at the Popplastic Towers Complex and we're all wearing black (the new black though - tres chic) until further notice. We just can't believe the news that after 6 years Liberty X will be no more. Popplastic have followed their fortunes since they lost out on Popstars back in the days when they were just plain old Liberty!


Liberty X - Just A Little


Popplastic's favourite Liberty X song of all time has to be . . .

Liberty x--Holding on for you


Never give up . . .

VERKA SERDUCHKA - NUMBER 28

Verka Serduchka's "Dancing Lasha Tumbai" went straight in at number 28 in the UK charts on downloads alone!

Clearly this was all thanks to Popplastic and our support for Verka over the Eurovision period!

Relive some classic Verka . . .

Less is always more . . .

LUCKY - LUCKY ONCE, TWICE, THRICE - MORE LUCKY TWICE!

Here at Popplastic we just don't believe that you can have too much of a good thing, and when it comes to those Lucky Twice girls more is always better! We recently stumbled across the One Piece Lucky Twice Remix and felt a duty to share it . . .

One Piece Lucky Twice Remix


It does get a bit glow stix and a whistle but . . .


I'm so lucky, Lucky, I'm so lovely, lovely . . .

SPICE GIRLS MIGHT REUNITE!!!

OMG! It's like Take That getting back together but even better!

Rumour has it that there is a good chance of a Spice Girls reunion and it seems that Posh Spice is the motivating force behind the plan. The Girls are apparently getting back together for a charity concert in the summer along side a fly-on-the-wall documentary.

Top Popplastic sources said, "They're all up for doing something, as long as it's done right, and they think a fly-on-the-wall film about their preparation for a one-off charity gig would work well".

Another source revealed that Posh and the other three are busy convincing Mel C, who is not too keen on the reunion. "While Geri Halliwell, Mel B, Emma Bunton and Victoria, are all really keen, they’re having a hard time convincing Mel C, who isn’t sure she wants to be on the road touring again," the source said.

Popplastic's favourite Spice Girl song/of all time, has to be "Viva Forever"

Spice Girls- Viva Forever


I wanna really really wanna zigzig ha . . .

TAKE THAT - I'D WAIT FOR LIFE

Take That's new single - I'd Wait For Life (Release date 18/06/07)


"I'd Wait for Life" is the third single to be released from Take That's come back album "Beautiful World". It's a Pop/Ballad song written by Take That, and the main vocals are from Gary Barlow. Not quite in the same league as "Patience" or "Shine" but surely destined for Number 1.

Take That - I'd Wait For Life


Check out Take That.

Very mature . . .

SCOOCH - FLYING THE FLAG!

Scooch Number 5 in the UK charts!

Well done to Scooch for a totally Popplastic performance in Helsinki and well done for your douze point! Popplastic were proud to be flying the flag for Scooch!


Scooch - Flying the Flag Live from Helsinki


Oooo was that a cameo appearance from Popplastic at the end of that song . . . (nice touch)

EUROVISION 2007!

Serbia win Eurovision 2007




She's got the look! - Just not quite sure what look she's trying to pull off!!!

Apparently it's the much in vogue "Wee Jimmy Crankie look" - it's so 2007! Surely that must be against the rules of the European Broadcasting Union!

Obviously a simple "key change" is just SO last year, all you need to win now is a bit of mass genocide to guarantee all your neighbours vote for you, well you wouldn't dare not!

It's actually a very pleasant song, a very traditional ballad. Didn't appear anywhere on the Popplastic radar though! OMG - maybe we're SO last year!

Serbia | Eurovision 2007 Winner, Molitva - Marija Serifovic



Popplastic have discovered why we keep on having to replace members of the Sugar Babes! - The Russians have been secretly stealing members of the band in order to put together their own version!

EUROVISION SEMI FINAL 2007

Eurovision semi final 2007!

Or should that read Eastern Eurovision semi final 2007!

What a sham!

It would seem that no matter how shi* your song is your selection is assured just as long as you happen to be from one of the former Soviet block nations, they don't even let a bit of Ethnic Cleansing get in the way of neighbourly voting!

Popplastic are devastated that Switzerland (Vampires are Alive) failed to qualify, all flags at the PP Towers complex are at half mast and we will be wearing black til further notice!

But atleast Slovenia and Latvia got through.

And how come no one noticed that McFly were representing Andora!


Andorra Eurovision 2007 | Anonymous - Salvem el mon


We love Andora!


So who got through:

Belarus
FYR Macedonia
Slovenia
Hungary
Georgia
Latvia
Serbia
Bulgaria
Turkey
Moldova

VOTE FOR SCOOCH!!!!
