Who was your favourite boy band?

Quality

I found an old Another Level CD of mine, and it brought me to thinking how much I loved that band when I was younger, When I put the CD on I still knew all the words to the songs:o.

So who was your crappy boy band?






I fancied the fella on the far right:o How embarrassing!!:o

A-Ha but they weren't a boyband, cos they were actually like a real band playing instruments and writing their own songs.

I still buy their albums.

East 17 also wrote their own songs and well at least one of them could play instruments

when is a boy band not a boy band? wasn't the beatles a boy band?

I've their Greatest Hits!! Its brill!!

Pighead

Pighead was and still is a fan of A1. They released possibly the most hummable catchy pop song ever recorded and for that they shall forever hold a place in Pigheads heart.

Song was called Caught In The Middle and here it is in all it's glory. Pighead realises some people may judge Pighead for choosing such a poppy uncool song but sometimes you have to stand up for what you believe in.

Can Pighead get a hell yeah from the sisters?

Please?

Oh yeah! Phwoooooooooooooar for Morten. Pal wasn't too bad either. But the other guy was a total roide. Can't remember his name though

Jules

OK this may make me sound awful but i was in Isreal when i was 10 years old, my dad was in the army and my self my mum and 6th went over for 3 weeks to visit him. It was an awesome trip and remember every bit of it.... but the highlight... Buying my New Kids On The Block beach towel.... I loved it!*













*i mean love it... I still have it, and will never give it up!

Dudess

I only liked Bros a bit. Loved Jason Donovan. Didn't fancy any of them though as I was only 10 or 11.
After that it was indie all the way. My earliest crushes were on Robert Smith of The Cure and Morrissey.

I was supposed to go to see them in Boston in 2001 when I was visiting a friend but AJ went into rehab about two days beforehand!! We were gutted.

My claim to fame when I was younger was that Boyzone came to visit Crumlin childrens hospital when I was there. I got to meet them all and brought their autographs back to school with me. Everyone was so jealous

Damzilla

New Kids on the Block were the only ones for me for ages. Then it was Back Street Boys.

Anyone remember a boy band from the US called EYC? Stood for Express Yourself Clearly!! I think they only ever had one hit. There were 3 of them. I remember them performing on Smash Hits one year. I was obsessed with one of them. His name was Trey. Sigh!

I just googled them and found this. http://eyc.zacharywoodlee.com/Gallery.html Oh dear lord. WHAT was I thinking?

Tbh I was never into boybands when I was younger. I recall my mother buying me a boyzone album on tape, which I gave to my little sister.

Was an absolutely massive Take That fan and now that they've reunited I get to relive my massive crush on Mark Owen all over again!!

I had a massive crush on Trey as well. And the fella with the long hair who may or may not have been called Dave

East 17 were the best though. Closely followed by Take That and Boyzone, god love them.

mollybird

Thank god I'm not the only one! Did you have a look at that link? I think there is pictures of Dave there some where. They state of them!:D

Even the name - Express Yourself Clearly, makes me cringe!

Yeah I looked at it, state of them indeed! Must try and track down some of their stuff on YouTube, quite the blast from the past.

Looking them up reminded me of MN8 as well, remember them? And Ultimate Kaos, who were vaguely creepy now that I think about them, with all their sex talk and them only being 12 or something. Me and some of my friends had a YouTube 90s Reminiscence Night a while back actually and it's mildly alarming how all the stuff we were listening to when we were 9 or 10 was completely about sex. East 17 especially were total filthbags. You bring the body and I'll bring the steam indeed Thank god I didn't understand any of the lyrics.

I just looked them up on YouTube. Hilarious! But friggin scary as well. Yer man Trey seemed to do all the singing. Not sure what the other two were there for.

Have a vague recollection of Ultimate Kaos. Who sang the song about getting freaky with you? I remember thinking that was really bad even at a young age after a friend playing it in the car in front of her dad!

Pythia

The first album I ever bought was MN8. I went to see Boyzone when I was 10, I loved it.

I do still quite like Westlife's music.

Acacia

I used to love Boyzone *cringes* I think my favorite was Stephen, then he turned out to be gay! I was gutted! My mate loved Ronan, so I think we used to argue about who was better, lol! She also loved some bloke from 5ive, I can't remember which one. She used to have posters of him covering her room. She won't even let me mention him now, she's so embarrassed. Ah, good times...:pac:

Piste

Oooh I loved 5ive when I was younger! I remember my dad somehow got free tickets for us to see them in concert but we had to leave early cos my sister had a headache

flonge

Boyzone all the way...im going to see them cant wait..


i also like 5ive,backstreet boys,spice girls and OTT....

The one with the whipped cream and licking you up and down? I think it was Another Level. Watched the video for it on YouTube a while back -- it's unbelievably unsexy.

Went to the concert in Croke Park and was one of the better moments in my life. Can't wait to see the DVD.

Clare Bear

I was and still am a big Take That fan but I went through a major Five (or 5ive as they were known) phase. Ah they had some catchy tunes though....also was a big Boyzone fan, thought Ronan was the business, saw him in my local (also his local) recently and I couldn't stop laughing, state of him!

I didn't really do bands. I had a major Elvis crush as a youth.
There is a topless teenage Kavana sticker still attached to the door of my press at home.
I have no idea what he sounded like though.

Damzilla

I just remembered that I went to see Five years ago in the Point and a guy I worked with got access to back stage and I got all their signatures.

How coool am I? Huh? Are we like sooo jealous of me or wha?:D
