The EP album is great from start to finish.
Barring the inclusion of "Ego", "Forever Is Over" and the trite, almost Wordshaker-album-version of "One Shot", the EP album is fantastic from start to finish.
Missing You, the 1st single, might not have been the best first single choice, but it did well, including being promoted to A-List status on Radio1 and a #3 entrance on the Singles chart.
The EP album was released this past Monday and looks to debut in the Top 3 album charts, hopefully at #1. *figners crossed*
Higher is the 2nd single, but, Karma really should've been the 2nd single.

I love Karma! It really should be the next single. :(

Like on Wordshaker, One Shot is the best track on here.
This is looking to be their highest charter, but that's not surprising as the other two were released in October.

Karma is one of, if not the best Pop songs of the year. I said the same about Ego, so down the line it should definitely be a single.
Great EP. Love these girls!

Currently downloading this. Wait, why are "Forever is Over", "Ego" and "One Shot" on here? And a Kristinia DeBarge song? What? This is so random.

It's the only song I really don't like, although I prefer The Saturdays' version. It's weird hearing her sing all the girls' parts on her own, lol.

I'm kind of confused with the re-release of some of their previous tracks. And the new material is much weaker (imo) than what we've gotten from their previous CDs. Seems like many of these songs should have stayed on the cutting room floor. I highly recommend just picking up Chasing Lights and Wordshaker if anyone here is just getting into this group.
Forever Is Over, Missing You, and Ego are the keepers for me from this.

I am loving Missing You. I play it all the time. And I'm very glad they've gone with 'Higher' as the next single.
Glad they're seeing some good chart success with this too.

Hope the TV Show helps their Album remain in the top 10 for a while.

While Ego was consistently selling, the album kept dropping like gangbusters on the charts. This mini-album was just supposed to put new music out there while they were working on a new full proper album which will be out at Christmas. Why they put some dumb remix of One Shot on is beyond me. They really changed nothing to the song anyways.

They probably included the One Shot remix because, even though its old and wasn't a single, it is one of their best songs and better than anything else on this album.

"Karma" and "Puppet" = "Higher" is alright and "Died in Your Eyes" is okay (but at least it's an improvement on the original). And really, they couldn't have come up with a better remix of "One Shot"? It's barely a remix. How about something actually danceable?

Looks like Headlines is charting well in the UK, so that should bode well for the full proper album release. :)

I still think they could and should go back and release One Shot. The remix just makes me obsessed with it again.

The version of "Forever Is Over" on the EP is a little different no? Extended intro + outro? Sounds like they tweaked the instrumental a bit as well. Did they do anything to "Ego"? I can't really tell.

Missing You and Higher are probably my favorites on this. I hope they find success here. They deserve it.

Flo Rida is going to be on the remix of 'Higher'. LMAO But hey, if he gets them played here in the states...then they can release 'Ego' or 'Karma' here and I'll die happy.

Flo Rida? Eww.
But if it helps them out here, I guess it's a necessary evil.

Karma is the worst song they've ever done. It's total garbage.
Higher and Missing You are amazing. As are Ego and One Shot. And I like Died In Your Eyes too.

Higher (Feat. Flo Rida) They made the song shorter. His verse is whatever, the intro is awful though. "Whatchu doin Saturday giirrrl?"

I suppose they'll do while the Girls are busy elsewhere with their own individual endeavors (well most of them anyway).
