The Saturdays 'desperate' for number one

The Saturdays have admitted that they are desperate to get a number one single.

The group, who have previously peaked in second place with Comic Relief single 'Just Can't Get Enough', claimed that they deserve to top the chart with a song from their upcoming second album Wordshaker.

"Do you know what, I think we deserve it now," singer Rochelle Wiseman told DS.

"There's all that stuff about being modest but it's every band's dream to get to number one! It's so nice to be in the top ten, even better to be in the top five, but getting to the top would really seal the deal.

"We've done so well this far, so it would be the icing on the cake and top off what has been a really amazing year."

The group's most recent single 'Work' only managed a disappointing number 22, however Wiseman insisted that they are not concerned about their future success.

"What happened was that we were meant to release it a lot earlier but then the Comic Relief opportunity came through. We'd already started promoting 'Work' so everyone had already started downloading it," she said.

"Sales-wise it still did well and it tied in nicely with our 'Work' tour, but it wasn't the ideal chart position."

The Saturdays release new single 'Forever Is Over' on October 5. Their album Wordshaker follows on October 12.
