Will Love Come For Bananarama?
Bananarama's first single in four years, "Love Comes," was released in the U.K. this week. [Watch the video]And while they managed to shake out two hits off their last set, Drama—"Move In My Direction" made it to U.K. #14 in August 2005, while "Look On The Floor" landed at #26 (and #2 on the U.S. Dance Club Play chart)—"Love Comes" has yet to dent the Brit iTunes chart, while the CD single is #7 on Amazon UK. Come on, you cougars—sell that jam!
Alas, it's not been a great season for British girl groups. Poor Dolly Rockers crawled in at #46 this past week with their swell disco number "Gold Digger" (video below) while Booty Luv landed just inside the Top 20 at #16 with "Say It" and Sugababes had to settle for the the #2 spot with "Get Sexy," behind Jay-Z and company.
So will love come for the B'rams when new album Viva hits the shelves Monday? At least the Saturdays' label Fascination is behind them.
And, you know what? I don't even care. I've got my copy pre-ordered. Viva la vida, divas.Labels: Bananarama, Dolly Rockers

Paloma Faith is the next big thing coming out of the U.K. She's going to be an instant superstar when her album drops.
I'm surprised you haven't written about her.

Bananarama have slipped out of the top 35 already :/ Tragedy! And Dolly Rockers haven't a hope in hells chance of making top 40 this week. And god knows what has happened to preston. Oh it's all going horribly horribly wrong.
