This is good but not lead single material given their current situation. They could and need to come much harder than this!

I'm totally addicted to it now. Can't stop playing it. Love it.

This has grown on me and I love it now. Still it doesn't come close to the brilliance of Ego and Higher.

I think this is too much like All Fired Up. And not enough like Up/Ego/Higher (their biggest selling singles).

I thought with their drop in fortunes lately (My Heart Takes Over / On Your Radar) they would have come with something MUCH stronger than this.

Its good but not great.

several others have already expressed how I'm feeling about this - it's definitely underwhelming!

I did like "Notorious", "All Fired Up", and "My Heart Takes Over"...but none of them compared to the likes to "Up", "Ego", and "Higher". they've been slipping since Headlines ("Notorious" and "All Fired Up" had decent peaks but not much longevity), and I really don't think this is the song to help them get some momentum back. :-?

Ever since their debut, I've been waiting for The Saturdays to reach their peak. Almost like how Girls Aloud did - they were really successful but it wasn't until "Call The Shots" (I think) that they really hit their peak and were huge! I've always though The Saturdays would have that HUGE album/era - but now I think they've already had it. I can't see them being huge now, sadly.

This is a good song - I like it alot - but this isn't what they need, is it?

I'm still surprised The Saturdays have yet to be dropped.

Frustrating isn't it? If someone had said 3 years ago where did I think The Saturdays would be I'd have said in Girls Aloud's position circa 2008. I even think things could've been different if one of their singles (preferably "Higher") had been given an X Factor performance slot.

I think they'll always manage to grab a couple of top 10 hits per year but their clock is ticking.

This is good but I wonder why they keep trying, they haven't had a break since their debut and their material is not even successful.

Music Video


Music Video alternative link

Not sure if @thesaturdays where expecting this, or if they where it was kept under wraps. MTV aired ‘On The Set’ this afternoon of the 30 Days Music video.

The video has leaked.

Its cute, simple and fun. reminds me of the Higher vid. :)

It's fun and simple, it works, but hopefully their next musicvideo will hit harder, I want these girls to break europe, Sugababes are basically over and GA didn't do much in Europe anyway the last years, so they should try to break some pots.

The video is very Saturdays-esque i.e. cheap, fun.

Their singles are (generally) very successful? They are not an album act though. But if they can keep selling singles and thereby getting themselves booked for tours and festivals, why NOT keep going?

People have suggested the music video is the treatment for 'The Way You Watch Me' as it really doesn't match 30 Days lyrics. I wouldn't be surprised but weirdly it still works, I think it's cute and fun!

"30 Dates" seems to be a more appropriate title when it comes to the video.
