Influences

Katy Perry (left) and Britney Spears (right) are two of the artists that the Saturdays are influenced by.

The Saturdays' debut album, Chasing Lights takes influence from a number of genres such as, synthpop, power pop, and new wave. The album also takes a big electropop and dance-pop influence. [103] Upon the release of the album, it was compared to Girls Aloud, Sugababes and Spice Girls. [4] [10] The band's debut single, "If This Is Love," features elements of synthpop and new wave genres. [5] [104] Many critics pointed out that they believe that the band's music would appeal more to the gay community. [105] [106]

Upon the release of the second album, Wordshaker the band released a pop rock track, "Forever Is Over". The album was also said to be a laid-back electro poppy offering that recalls the more subdued moments from their debut album." [107] Talking about the album and the single "Ego"; We were searching for sounds and found the basic hook sound that's in the verse and carries all the way through. I started playing along to it and then Ina started singing along, and the song was written over that. No drums were ever put down." [108] Headlines! was released in 2010, which was the band's first Extended play on the EP, the band have made use of auto-tuning on their vocals, most notable on "Missing You" and "Higher" [109] They said about the music on Headlines! "We finished [Wordshaker] and we'd come across some songs that we were really excited about. The songs that we had found were so current, and we'd written a couple of songs ourselves, [so] we wanted to just get everything out now". [29] The synth-laden "Higher" has become an instant fan fave following recent live performances and, with its infectious chorus and super-sassy lyrics. [101]

With third album On Your Radar, the group said they were beginning to take risks in their music genre. They said; "I think every artist needs to, sort of, reinvent themselves and we don't want any track to sound like it could have been on our previous albums. It's going to be a step up from the last album but we'll keep it The Saturdays-esque." [50] The band described the song's lyrics as "playful" with a "drop-out chorus" [47] and the song is often labelled "it's a very cool" by the band. [48] They described their album as "current", "fun", "naughty" and "girly". [50] "Notorious" was described by critics "big" and that it was "quite amazing". [110] Their new music was also compared to Rihanna, the Black Eyed Peas and Kelis' music. [110] The Saturdays also teamed up with MNEK and Space Cowboy to help them to record "club bangers".
