After an initial pass over this article, it appears to have good coverage of its subject and to be well-sourced--thanks for your work on it! However, the prose still seems far from Good Article standards due to persistent spelling and grammatical errors, and for this reason I'm not listing it as a Good Article at this time. I corrected a few with an automatic checker, but it's clear at a glance that a number of basic errors remain. I've listed some below, but please note that this isn't a complete list.

My suggestion would be to go over this once or twice yourself before renominating; if you're not comfortable doing so, you might also solicit help from the Guild of Copy Editors. I think this has obvious Good Article potential, but will need some close attention first. Good luck with it, and thanks for your work on improving this article! -- Khazar2 (talk) 02:15, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I have read through the article again and edited some grammar errors. I have also corrected the errors you have pointed out below. I also requested a copy edit of the article at the Guild of Copy Editors. English is my second language unfortunately! Thank you SO much for your review! I sincerely appreciate it, some more examples of grammar errors would be extremely helpful! I really want this article to achieve GA status! - Littlemixlove (talk) 17:05, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much for your work! Your English is really terrific for a non-native speaker, by the way. I think many of the errors are fixed now, but I'll defer to the Guild of Copy Editors or the next GA reviewer to double-check the rest. If you feel it's really, you should feel free to nominate again. Good luck getting this the rest of the way to GA status! -- Khazar2 (talk) 23:04, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

 * "Sugababes "Push the Button" (2005) ... All Saints "Never Ever" (1998)." should have possessives -- "Sugababes' 'Push the Button"", etc.

 * " While Kate Lucey of Sugar mentioned, "Catchy chorus, full of harmonies and enough clapping to make us dance on our chairs like we're in some kind of gospel choir"."; "While Andrew Trendell of Gigwise wrote that the song "is one of those unrelentingly infectious pop beasts".; "While in the Czech Republic it peaked at number 91" -- sentence fragments -- omit "while"

 * "After signing with Columbia Records on 8 January 2013, it was announced" -- dangling modifier -- "it" didn't sign with Columbia

 * "While other critics felt that the song was reminiscent of girl groups; En Vogue,[30] and Sugababes,[23] and namely the group's "confident R&B vibe" on their cover of En Vogue's "Don't Let Go (Love)"" -- another sentence fragment; also a semicolon requires a complete sentence on both sides of the semicolon.
 * ✅ - Littlemixlove (talk) 17:05, 14 April 2013 (UTC)


 * "the group posted a lyric video of "Wings" on their official Vevo" -- should be "Vevo account" or some other word; the group doesn't own Vevo

 * "Lanksy also wrote;" -- should be a comma rather than a semicolon
