The Wanted are feeling lonely with their new single... aww

The Wanted have announced that their follow up to All Time Low will be fan favourite Heart Vacancy. Will this hotel themed synthy ballad cement the fabled second coming of the boy band or resign The Wanted to the bargain bin at Wilkos? 

As usual, it's all over YouTube and on pop-pig's channel, so what do you think? will the teenage masses stick with the pouty five piece or be captured back by the Von Traap loving JLS?

This weeks releases...

This week is a bit of a quiet one on the pop farm. 

Roll Deep release, Green Light, their follow up single to their hit, Good Times   which shot to No. 1 back in May.

Klaxons lead single for their second album, Surfing the Void, also drops today.

More excitingly, The Saturdays third album/EP/compilation CD Headlines! is now out. But will it succumb to the curse of Frankie and the gang and only reach No. 9 or will The Saturdays finally hit Top 5 with an album? What do you think? It's looking good on iTunes, but this time last week Missing You was heading straight for a No. 1 but on Sunday it fell short at No. 3. 

Come back on Wednesday for the chart update to see if Roll Deep can score a second UK No. 1 and if The Saturdays are on course to break the curse. 

The Pop Pig is born...

Monday 16th August 2010, the day the Pop Pig took its first breath and delved into the pop troth to deliver all the latest pop nuggets. This little piggy really loves his pop and wants to share it with the world of pop lovers and makers that is the pop farm. 

Agricultural references aside, the pop pig is going to give you all the latest news, reviews, hot new acts and songs and the epic failures from today's pop world. Including chart updates from the UK and around the world. This little piggie's global.

And the pig is going to be offering his own thoughts and feelings on the pop world's ventures with the Weekly Troth, every Sunday , separating the good pop grain from the stuff that, frankly, isn't suitable for this little piggy's consumption...
