Boy Band Union J - X factor UK 2012

[sokker]

I'm just worried it's moving a bit too fast. Their first single is very important, obviously. And releasing the wrong first single could basically ruin their career. I have a bad feeling about this, but I hope I'm wrong. As long as they pick a good single it should be fine. But PLEASE no ballad or anything like that. It should be a catchy upbeat single that's easy on the ear and one that could hopefully get some plays on the radio.

I dedicate this post to you Sokker!

Thanks for the new pics and gifs SilverWolf

Some news: Union J recorded their first single yesterday, and I'm sooo excited! It will be released in April. They also have a new management now.. Crown Management. They manage Jessie J and others, so I think it's a good choice

Oh, and one more thing I want to add: I know they played at GAY and it looked packed, so that's cool! I hope they'll get some guy fans and not just girls. Then again.. Jaymi is gay and that probably means that gays will notice them.. hopefully

G-A-Y is a pretty popular club if memory serves me right. I haven't been clubbing in London since like 2003.

So apparently their music is going to be released in June under their Sony deal. Can't wait to hear it.

Yeah, I can't wait! I gotta say though at first it was announced that they'd be releasing the music in April. I think that would have been a better choice. I don't think it's a good idea to release the first single in summer. It's too long after X Factor ended and a lot of people are on summer vacation. April would have been much better than June. I bet their first single will bomb, since the timing is off. I hope I'm wrong though.

[SilverWolf]

Sokker, what are they doing?

[sokker]

I have no idea, just being their crazy selves

The Gosh twitcam was really fun though

[SilverWolf]

^
I love George's reaction.

[SilverWolf]

[sokker]

Thanks for the new pics, SilverWolf. George looks like a little cupcake in that last pic. OMG, can he get any cuter?

And Jaymi with a new tattoo.. meh, as long as he doesn't go overboard, like Harry from One Direction..

I know, right?

JJ and Rylan Clark.

I had no idea JJ had such nice arms...

That pic is so homoerotic! I love it. Up till now Josh has been the tease, but wow.. I'm starting to think that JJ is taking over

And yeah.. JJ has really nice arms, but he does stay healthy, and probably exercise a lot.. he used to be a jockey, and he was even a model for a short period. JJ is really good looking, I'll give him that. I understand why he's so popular. I like Josh, but he does have a look that you kinda have to get used to, compared to JJ, whose looks are more "conventional handsome" if that makes any sense, lol. Too bad he can't sing that well though. I mean.. he's good enough to be in Union J, but he'd never make it as a solo artist, he's clearly the worst vocalist in Union J, and there's a long way up to Josh and Jaymi. I'd rank their voices (from best to worst): Jaymi, Josh, George and then JJ. In looks I'd rank them (starting at the hottest): George, JJ, Josh and then Jaymi. I do think JJ is hotter than Josh, but I still find Josh (as in the whole package, personality and looks and everything), the most attractive guy in Union J

[SilverWolf]

Jaymi talks about his coming out.

[sokker]

Well.. a tour manager for the District 3 tour said he got to listen to Union J's new single. This is what he had to say about their single:

"Just having another exclusive listen to UnionJ debut single before anyone else hears it! Who else would love to hear it? It's pretty good"

"One Direction + The Wanted = Union J debut single"

"I'm not instantly hooked. I think it'll be a grower x It's pretty good overall tho x"

And he also said that Union J are better than District 3 live

This is great news! I can't wait. Thanks for sharing.

I agree.

George is so cute its ridiculous.

[SilverWolf]

[Lukey1]

I would destroy them all

[SilverWolf]

George, what is your hand doing there?

[JarodA]

If George is straight then...

[sokker]

If George is straight then...

I don't think George is straight.. I think he's bi/gay. He's kinda effeminate, and there's been gay rumors surrounding him in the past.

I totally agree. Some of his posts on twitter and instagram make me wonder.

Yep. Have you seen his old twitter account? some suspicious stuff on there..

Nope but I wouldn't mind having him on our team. I love Jaymi and George actually. George has grown on me. Josh is too princess like for me. JJ is too straight.

Sokker,


Do you know where this is from?

[Compton]

It's was the Radio 1 Breakfast Show comic relief, just search George Shelley cinnamon challenge on YouTube or search for the Radio 1 channel

[Compton]

Does anyone know where any fakes of these guys are? I would live one with George and niall from one direction!

Union J and bad jokes

Thanks for the new gifs, SilverWolf. I actually kinda like their new single. It's not amazing or anything, but it's certainly catchy enough I like the fact that it's not your typical pop love song. It's a mix of dance/pop. They have created their own sound without sounding too similar to The Wanted and One Direction. It has a nice message too

I'm glad to hear that. I need to get it soon.

Oh George

[SilverWolf]

George is ticklish

[coastieboy00]

George is so cute. I'm torn between him and Jaymi.

[sokker]

I'm torn between Josh and George. I like Josh because he's so crazy and weird, and he's got this addictive personality. But then you have George who is so cute and adorable and beautiful and I just.. sigh. I also think there's a good possibility that George is bisexual (from stuff I've read). I even had "proof" at one point, but the idiot I am deleted my tumblr, and with it also my asks, and the proof. Yeah, I'm smart alright, lol.

[JarodA]

Not a fan of the single at all, but then I didn't have high expectations so no problem .

[amwao1]

Now I do have to preface this with, I have liked Union J since I first saw them on the X-Factor, but I really don't like their debut single. It might grow on me if I can be bothered to listen to it more but it's really generic and does them no favours. I caught the music video on TV the other day and it was also disappointing. Sure the guys all look amazing but it's like no effort actually went into it. The whole single (music and video) just screams a little bit lazy to me.

Now on the plus side, they're all amazingly good looking (yeah there's no one I'd say no to) but Josh is still my favourite.

I agree. I kinda like the single though, it's good. It's not great or amazing, but good. It's definitely a grower though. I think you will like it if you listen to it a couple of more times. I have to say though that their music video was crap, and yes, very disappointing. Then again, they did sign to RCA, a smaller record company, with less money to spend on their acts, and that is definitely showing. Sigh. Oh well.. hopefully their second single will be better
