Less than one month to go before he's done with ROA. He tweeted about hopefully touring around the world next year - let's hope that happens.

Are the songs you linked in Post #116 all RedOne demos?

I want to make her happen on ATRL, but I think I'm going to have even less success than you do with Shayne.

Love Being In Love, Brain Washed and Let's Do It are definitely RedOne. Idk who produced Cotton Candy Love. I'm 95% sure he didn't produce Future Love but I don't have the single CD with me to check.
I doubt she'll happen, even most Indians don't use her anymore.

Thanks. I'll just listen to all of them and download the ones I like.
See You Everyday sounds so gay.

I doubt it too. Indians (whether they're nationals or the diaspora) aren't really supportive of any celebs that have global appeal and without their support, why anyone would anyone else bother to check for them? The limited success of people like Freida Pinto and Jay Sean i was definitely not because of South Asian support. Not that Jay deserves any with the trash he puts out now, but that's a different topic entirely. There's also Freddie Mercury, but he doesn't count as no even knows he's of Asian origin.

He has more unreleased tracks if you're interested. I could upload them in a handy zip file for ya.
And  Shayne's just a massive softy underneath all the wet jeans and tribal tattoos. He cries all the time.

Pretty much. Jay made it because he was something different but now he's trash that no country wants to acknowledge. And he won't even take his top off so 
Priyanka was pretty popular a year or two ago but she's old news now apparently. That's what my Indian friends tell me anyway. And apparently there's some plastic surgery rumour surrounding her that her fans/the public aren't too pleased with.

I am interested. Could you upload them for me? I was going to say that we should edit these posts after, but they're not released tracks and I doubt anybody else is reading this.

He seems really gay. I'm not saying he's attracted to men, but he has a lot of the characteristics that the gay men I see everyday have and that I like.

I was going to say the same thing about the shirt thing. And Down wasn't even very different, but after its success he should have released his solid material. I'm over him anyway. Cash Money should drop him and sign Shayne.

I don't really follow Hindi movies (or other Indian movies either), but I'm pretty sure she's still a major celebrity judging from the magazines I flip through. As for plastic surgery, that's definitely not just a rumor. The nose she has today is not the same one she had when Jerry Springer announced her Miss World win so she's a big liar. Also, she says she "can't tolerate mediocrity," but then says this:
The Hollywood Reporter: Is there a kind of cinema you are particularly drawn to?
Chopra: Whether its international or Indian, I like being part of cinema that works at the box office. I think movies are made for entertainment and nobody makes movies just for themselves to watch in their drawing rooms. Box office is king and that's the kind of cinema I'd like to be a part of.
So much for disliking mediocrity. No wonder most popular Indian films are trash while real talent and quality is ignored.

Before he auditioned for the X Factor he was in a singing group with two girls.  They were called Destiny.

Right? I mean ffs at least give me something to look at while your awful music plays. I actually subjected myself to that Sex 101 song in the hopes that I'd see something worthwhile but all I got was a 2 second scene through some steamed-up glass.
And no, no way in HELL do I want Shayne signed to Cash Money. They're horrible and would insist on him working with basic producers and sticking in some disgusting rapper on every single he releases which is definitely not Shayne. I'd love him to get signed to Cheryl Cole's label. A collaboration with the two of them would literally slay the world.

DEAD. I guess we can assume any music she puts out will be trash as well then. will.i.am does decent work but he can also make awful, awful songs so who knows. T.H.E. (The Hardest Ever) Part II?

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt here and just say he's a really gay straight guy.

Sex 101 wasn't even that bad originally, but then they had remix it for the release and make another crap video. Oh well, RIP Jay Sean.

Well maybe not Cash Money, but some American label. As for what they would do for him, Lil Wayne probably would probably feature himself on a track, but that might not necessarily be a bad thing in terms of getting Shayne's name out there. I'm pretty sure Jay still worked with the same producers that he did on My Own Way. Not sure why the quality of the music deteriorated. It would have a been good idea to just use to release that album in the US with some changes.
I was going to mention Cheryl in the last post. I really want Call My Name to be released stateside, but other than that song and her looks, I don't think she has enough going on for her to spread further than the UK.

We'll see. I have low expectations, but hopefully she'll have something that appeals both commercially and critically.

Looking forward to that. I'd say a fair amount of his unreleased material is on par with some of his best album tracks, but that's just me.

Tbh I don't want him to explore the US. I'm fine with him just putting out his music in the UK, Asia and South Africa because I have terrible memories with some of my favourite artists trying way to hard to crack that scene - to the point where all other territories were neglected. Artists like Lloyd and 1D got lucky last year but Shayne won't have Simon backing him.
But we'll see how it goes. It'd be easier to just focus on returning to the UK music scene for the time being, though he's now lost his major promoting platform - the X Factor. Perhaps if next year proves to be a successful one for Shayne they'll re-release his album with a couple of his old singles to the US and test him out.

Well, she doesn't need much more besides that, but you're right because the US is already overloaded with (crummier) female popstars. I think Cheryl might just pull a Kylie and focus on the rest of the world, which I think is best.
Shayne and Cheryl would undeniably make a great single together, and the hype would be incredible, especially with them both being X Factor rejects in a way.

If anything, will.i.am added to the track ensures that there'll be a lot of interest generated in India. People will be more drawn to the idea of a worldwide star working with a local than that of a local trying to make it worldwide.

I don't really care much to be honest. Most of the people I like are flops (Nicole Scherzinger is my favorite singer ) so as long as it's released somewhere. I guess making in the US is just about status as an artist.

Yeah, just look at that L'oreal bug-eyed bird lady. Convinced people in her country she's some big international star just by appearing on some American talk shows and turned a mediocre career to a superstar.

True, but Shayne is out there to sell records. He's made that clear, plus he's already achieved it before. And hey, at least Nicole somewhat made it in the UK. 
And kiii yeah I can't think of anyone who genuinely uses her. She's old news now.

In that case, expanding to the Americas somewhere down the road isn't a bad idea.
Anyway this is what I've gone through:
Gotta Be Somebody (Almighty Remix) - GOOD
Future Love - GOOD
Must Be A Reason Why (Afrojack Remix) - BAD
The Way You Are: CUTE
I See You Everyday: BAD
Beautifully Flawed: OKAY
I See Your Face: I FELL ASLEEP
To be continued.

Y'know, a few years ago there were rumours that he was trying to land some acting job in an action film over in the US. None of the sources were trustworthy though.
And I agree with pretty much all your views, except I think the Afrojack Remix is decent and I See You Everyday is semi-cute. I've listened to I See Your Face maybe three times.
Anyways, a little over a week until he's done with ROA. He's moving to a different part of London afterwards, I think, I'm too lazy to double-check where. And we've got a new twitpic from a fan:
