Boy bands in general :laughing guy:

 

i grew up in that era. the 90's wave i mean.

 

sue me.......some of it stuck. Heck the Beatles were a glorified boy band in the early stages.

Just because young girls thought they were cute doesn't constitute them being a glorified boy band. Unless you're using some criteria that I don't know about, I see very little in common between them and The Backstreet Boys or New Kids on the Block of the era you're talking about.

Agreed. They were a very British rock n roll band.

oooh i hit a nerve. Cute, simple hooky love songs. really not much substance.

 

Boy band to me.

 

Sorry folks.

 

Mick

I disagree with that too: disagreement doesn't mean "hitting a nerve". ;)

 

No need to apologize for a very clear, simply put opinion.

 

i was kidding with the nerve thing. ;)

 

but really something like 8 days a week ain't THAT far off from what you'd hear from a 90's boyband, lol

You are judging them by modern standards. But that early Beatles sound was typical of rock n roll in the early sixties.

I've loved Huey Lewis before American Psycho made it "cool."

 

Also, I have to mention Duran Duran.

 

I liked Duran Duran back in the 80's when they hit the music scene and I still like them today.

No...sorry that is just old school rock n roll to my ears. Boy band and girl band music of the last 25 years is 99% of the time a bland redoing of what made the sixties great.

 

It shows how far rock n roll has come since the sixties, and considering how both of love pop rock, the majority of the AOR classics should be labeled proto-boyband as well.

If you say so. But I think your standard of "ain't that far off" is very different from mine.

 

Vietnamese food ain't that far off something you'd eat in Cambodia. Early Beatles and those 90s boy bands is as similar as a basket of Fish & Chips and a bag of Pepperidge Farm's Goldfish crackers.

 

Wait, wtf am I talking about?

I just can't look at the female crowds......merchendise Marketed towards that audience. hear the sugary sweet pop tunes. and NOT think boy band. same deal as modern boy bands in that department.

Judging the Beatles by modern standards is like saying how in earth did people dance to Johann Strauss, he wasn't disco enough.

I love Joni Mitchell Hejira album. I have the CD in my safety deposit box at the band.

 

http://youtu.be/rG0kNny3WlY

 

Joni Mitchell is a guilty pleasure?

 

I might as well go to the devil right now, then.

 

Hejira is tied at the top of my favourite Joni albums, with just one other. That one and Blue. Both are absolutely indispensable.

Mick if I lived near you, I would be the kindest hearted buddy ever.

 

That way, when your house mysteriously blows up I would be the last person even the FBI would suspect!

Hang on, isn't that basically what all friends do?

 

Lol me and my friends live to shove each other in thorn bushes and set fire to each others eyebrows as we randomly fall asleep (possibly as a result of reading frarocs posts).
