Pussycat Dolls ready 6th single

Had to get this post in, since Nicole is an old friend. Though many of you may dislike them, i think, they are one of the few "Pop" groups that brings diversity somewhat in their songs and shows, and also has a female singer that knows how to "sing" and not just scream the same note over and over. What even surprised me in this day an age of albums coming and going, their cd has held in the top 40 for close to a year peaking at Number 5 and now back in the top 20, has spawned 5 singles and 4 top 10's. The label has already confirmed a 6th single also, the next album is being worked on. And a few weeks ago PCD did something i think only Phil Collins has done, they played a night concert in Ireland then flew to NYC and did the GMA concert in the Park and then flew back to England to play a show that night to date the record is closing in on 2 million in US sales, and 5+ million worldwide, i know everyone loves numbers so i thought id post this. It should also be noted that usually songs now have high debuts, with each PCD single its been a struggle, all of them have debuted in the 80-90 range and climbed slowly, just like the old days

I cannot hate on Nicole because the girl can sing and is very sexy in a confident way. The others are merely window dressing. It is all about Nicole's solo career.

Well alot of people say that but trust me, a solo record is not in the plans, yet, though Nicole has turned up a few CDs as a guest vocalist lately, the next PCD cd will feature more input from Melody on some leads, and Nicole will write most of the album, she co-wrote a few on this one, but she is looking to to do most of the next one. Nicole will one day be solo, but she will surprise alot of people with her choice of material, if u have heard the PCD album think what she did on "Feelin Good" and imagine a whole record of that.

Well, that's a pity....Nicole is the only reason to listen to any of their records, as far as I'm concerned.

I find it hilarious that the PCD liner notes say, "All lead and background vocals by Nicole S..." Why bother trying to develop the vocals of the other members when they have none? It's pointless.

Well the thing is, as much as Nicole is a great vocalist, alot of labels want to cash in on her being a Beyonce or a Christina where Nicole is more of Norah Jones at heart. So PCD for her is the outlet, to get her well known to a certain point and then she can do a total 360 and hit people with something else. Plus she told me, that alot people laugh when they see the name "Scherzinger" on a CD.

Oh, I know why she's doing it. It's not like talent is going to be recognized in the mainstream unless you've got a gimmick. If the gimmick is a burlesque act, okay.

If and when she does go solo, I'm sure they'll market her as "Nicole" or "Nicole S.".

If u get a chance to catch PCD live, do it! Especially in a smaller club enviroment, in 2004 thats what i did here in NYC, no one had a clue who they were, "Buttons" was the showstopper even then, the live version is much better, and quite Hot.

And the funny thing is she is SUPER SHY, when she was brought in to PCD she didnt think she could be "Sexy"

There is a bit of talent outside Nicole. The sista in the group can sing her ass off. I heard them on a talk show and the sista co-lead a song with Nicole and in my opinion bested her on THIS performance. Why she doesn't get more vocal time is beyond me. Well, no its not. PCD is ALL about Nicole. She LOOKS the lead part more than any of the others.

I haven't heard all the singles yet. So far in Germany they've only released Don'tcha, Stick With You, Beep (which was out for about a minute)...I think Buttons just started getting rotation a couple of weeks ago. I was always under the impression that the lead (Nicole?) was the only one putting down vocals while the other girls just danced eek .

This is what I'd always thought for a long time as well.

At first I didn't like this group, but some of their tracks have begun to grow on me.

Ha, ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha

Every boy's the same
Since up in the seventh grade
They been trying to get with me
Trying to (Ha, ha-ha, ha, ha-ha)
They always got a plan
To be my one and only man
Want to hold me with their hands
Want to (Ha, ha-ha, ha, ha-ha)
I keep turning them down
But, they always come around
Asking me to go around
That's not the way it's going down

'Cause they only want
Only want my ha, ha-ha
Ha, ha-ha
Only want what they want
But, na, ah-ah
Na, ah-ah

Do you know that no
Don't mean yes, it means no
So just hold up, wait a minute
Let me put my two cents in it
One, just be patient
Don't be rushing
Like you're anxious
And two, you're just too aggressive
So try to get your (Ahh)

Do you know that I know?
And I don't want to go there

Only want
Only want my ha, ha-ha
Ha, ha-ha
Only want what they want
But, na, ah-ah
Na, ah-ah

Ooh, you've got it bad I can tell
You want it bad, but oh well
Dude, what you got for me
Is something I
Something I don't need
Hey!

Ok what single came out after "Beep" that is just now being played on the radio because I ACTUALLY like that song and can understand how they seem like a Prince band when I hear it.

Yeah , sorry confused

I guess you mean this song ;

Buttons

I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby (Uh huh)
But you keep fronting (Uh)
Saying what you going to do to me (Uh huh)
But I ain't seen nothing (Uh)

I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby (Uh huh)
But you keep fronting (Uh)
Saying what you going to do to me (Uh huh)
But I ain't seen nothing (Uh)

Typical
Hardly the type I fall for
I'm liking the physical
Don't leave me asking for more
I'm a sexy mama (Mama)
Who knows just how to get what I want and (Want and)
What I want to do is spring this on you (On you)
Back up all of the things that I told you (Told you)

You been saying all the right things all night long
But I can't seem to get you over here to help take this off
Baby, can't you see?
How these clothes are fitting on me
And the heat coming from this beat
I'm about to blow
I don't think you know

I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby (Uh huh)
But you keep fronting (Uh)
Saying what you going to do to me (Uh huh)
But I ain't seen nothing (Uh)

I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby (Uh huh)
But you keep fronting (Uh)
Saying what you going to do to me (Uh huh)
But I ain't seen nothing (Uh)

You say you're a big boy
But I can't agree
'Cause the love you said you had
Ain't been put on me
I wonder
If I'm just too much for you
Wonder
If my kiss don't make you just
Wonder
What I got next for you
What you want to do? (Do)

Take a chance to recognize that this could be yours
I can see, just like most guys that your game don't please
Baby, can't you see?
How these clothes are fitting on me
And the heat coming from this beat
I'm about to blow
I don't think you know

I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby (Uh huh)
But you keep fronting (Uh)
Saying what you going to do to me (Uh huh)
But I ain't seen nothing (Uh)

I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby (Uh huh)
But you keep fronting (Uh)
Saying what you going to do to me (Uh huh)

I'm a make you loosen up my buttons babe
Loosen up my buttons babe
Why don't you loosen up my buttons babe
Loosen up my buttons babe

I'm a make you loosen up my buttons babe
Loosen up my buttons babe
Why don't you loosen up my buttons babe
