On Your Radar is the third studio album by British-Irish girl group The Saturdays. The album was released 21 November 2011 under Fascination Records. The album was recorded in Los Angeles and London. Steve Mac, who has been instrumental in the production of the band's previous albums, serves as a major collaborator. Additional producers and songwriters include Lucas Secon, Taio Cruz, Labrinth, Tracklacers, Space Cowboy, Brian Higgins and Lucie Silvas.
The album's lead single "Notorious" was released on 22 May 2011. The song was compared to The Black Eyed Peas, Kelis and Rihanna, and received generally mixed reviews. The second single from the album, "All Fired Up", was released in September 2011 which also gained positive reviews and third single, "My Heart Takes Over", was released in November 2011.
In order to promote the album, the band performed on So You Think You Can Dance. After Una Healy announced her pregnancy, fans thought that On Your Radar would be the last album from the band. However they stated they would not split and Healy still had full commitment to the band. After the release of the album, the band embarked on their third headlining concert tour, the All Fired Up Tour.
