The Wanted: 'Lightning'
It's hard to believe that just 18 months ago newbies The Wanted took a grip of the boyband scene with their debut single 'All Time Low' and launched themselves as a chart-topping pop act. Naturally, they've now firmly set their sights on a Stateside launch - even eyeing touring pal Justin Bieber for a leg up - but can their new single 'Lightning' help the lads soar where previous US hopefuls Westlife and JLS sank?

"I know that it's a little bit frightening/ We might as well be playing with lightning," the five-piece croon over a cool 'n' catchy melody more addictive than snacking on a tube of Pringles in front of the telly. The results are strikingly similar; once you pop, you shamelessly can't stop no matter how much you try; and when factoring in the oh-so-trendy mix of breezy guitar hooks and pulsating club beats, we predict the guys will be picking up a few Beliebers of their own.
