18 - Gentleman (31/40 votes - 77.5%)
17 - What Are You Waiting For (25/40 votes - 62.5%)
16 - My Heart Takes Over (29/41 votes - 70.7%)
15 - Issues (26/41 votes - 63.4%)
14 - Just Can't Get Enough (25/41 votes - 61%)

We lose three more, none of which are real shockers at this stage. Ive always found the Just Can't Enough cover a bit of HARMLESS FUN POP but far from essential compared to others in their back cat. This is getting slightly more difficult now!

Vote to evict - *4* choices!!
 
It does feel like each round though there is 2-3 obvious ones to evict. Their singles seem to have very well defined levels of greatness.
 
I have such a hard time with the chronology of The Saturdays' music - maybe it's because I left the UK, but I literally know that Up happened in 2008 or so and then everything else is some kind of random detached floating head of basic gay bops

I agree; I keep having to go to Spotify to remind myself which is which.
 
I had a little listen yesterday to those I was unfamiliar with. WAYWF is hilarious. Basically a First Choice advert for video where they take a hunz holiday to Greece, and such a limp chorus despite it having 11(!) writing credits including MNEK and Zara Larsson. Clearly a song that had been passed around a lot by the time it got to them. Like when an image gets overshared by boomers on Facebook and ends up in Microsoft Paint Quality by the time you see it. There's basic bops, then there's urgh, basic.

30 Days suffers a bit from muddy production syndrome that it's difficult to make out what they're saying for most of it which doesn't help hummability. The only bit I can recall is "30 Days... Hummmm". Not terrible, but not strong enough to make it further in this Survivor.

I needed to give My Heart Takes Over a listen as well but that felt more familiar than the other two. It's... alright.
 
One of my favorite Saturdays songs was the b-side to 30 Days (I think) Turn Myself In
 
"30 Days" can't leave yet. I love "Ego", "Higher", "Up" more probably, but they ARE the same song.
 
Cannot believe what I've voted just to try and save 30 Days. I'm absolutely horrified at that one hovering so close to the edge like it were Frankie about to go on air.
