Boybands Forever

[SarahGard83]

I loved the Take That documentary. I was the girl who mourned when they split up. Called the helpline, drew my bedroom curtains and didn't eat for days . I grew up in a Christian household so wasn't allowed to go see them because they were "too rauncy" but then my parents would buy me the tour VHS every Christmas(wtf?). Mark Owen was my life. I even had knickers with his face on at one point during my teenage years. The documentary for me was a rollercoaster of emotions and transported me back in time. Thankfully I've managed to see them tour numerous times as an adult and yes I'm silly a Mark's girl

I was obsessed with Up by The Saturdays, the black dress + bright tights combo sorted my going out outfit until about 2013

Lads I went to see Blue tonight. They were great but even better were 911 in the support slot. Lee is gorgeous but Jimmy's sharp dance moves made all my teenage hormones come flooding back. He changed something in me

I have no one to talk to about this

 

[IndominusRex]

I drew 911 a portrait of them and gave it to them at our local radio station

It was probably dependent on who they could get to contribute to it interview wise. I'm assuming nobody from Boyzone for example wanted to feature on it

I was surprised neither Shane or Keith would want to contribute. Shane has done Channel 5 countdown shows talking about Boyzone so he’s not opposed to that sort of thing. Boyzone’s lack of contribution was noticeable considering how big they were at the time, if only to talk about that hilarious The Late Late Show clip of them all dancing like loons in their early days

Wonder if that's where my free teenage dirtbag cd was from

Did you see recently there was thing about some people only now realising the bridge in the song is the man putting on a female voice?

I thought that was obvious lol

Stephen Gately would have been 50 yesterday

 

[coconochanel]

bumping this for chats about boybands. boybands of the past were the best IMO

 

[Miss.Chanandler.Bong]

Sleep with a man for a little bit of money

Yes!
I was eight singing about my son crying all alone on the bedroom floor

I dont think brian can win tbh. He was there saying too much happened too quickly. You also had Louis almost mocking him by saying he bets Brian regrets leaving Westlife.

Anything brian says about kerry can be twisted as litigious or to set her off to OK. You cant deny he might be walking on egg shells. You're right about his daughters, theyre adults now and they also went to live with him at different points too.

Brian had a small career in Oz after westlife with a tv guest spot and a solo career. He seems to be doing ok for himself.

In that case he could have just said “No, I don’t want to talk about that” but he didn’t. He was nasty

Shane looks weird. Looks like he's had botox and fillers

Ronans a prick and Louis is a cunt

Robbie definitely still has inner demons I think, this is a bit of a Robbie episode with a bit of E17 thrown in

Aberdonian Bad Boys Inc star Ally Begg felt 'thrown in the trash' after pop fame ended

The writer and broadcaster was once a member of Bad Boys Inc, the band had their first Top 10 hit 30 years ago - but their success was short-lived and left him in a mess.

Don't remember bad boys inc myself but was never really into boybands growing up

Ooh yeah Ally Begg! He was a model in Mizz magazine originally, he used to be on their black and white postcards they'd give out free every week

 

[Very traditional]

Binged watched all three at dinner time and loved them. Stay Another Day should be played all year round on radio as it's not a Christmas song.

How was it Xmas number one 30 years ago How am I that old

Kelle and Mel are haterz, Wannabe is a masterpiece. All Saints wouldn't have had a look in without it.

The Spice Girls produced two excellent pop albums. I thought we were past pretending pop music can't be good.

So today I watched the Boyzone No matter what documentary and then all 3 parts of Boybands Forever.

I haven’t caught up on posts, so apologies if I am just posting the same things:-

BOYZONE - Louis Walsh is vile. He was so smug, almost laughing about SG being outted. Wow!

BOYBANDS - The part about Five seemed edited to miss a whole chunk. We all know the Sean left the band, needed help, and they used a cardboard cutout in the video. I don’t recall that being mentioned at all.

 

[UnresolvedYin]

I wonder if any of these girls featured are watching back tonight and cringe fondly spotting themselves

Omg Shane Lynch cupping his dick 🫢

 

[Restless Native]

Sugababes are performing a medley on Strictly
I watch definitely watch a documentary about all their drama!!

A girl band version would be great

 

[BugglyWuggly]

I'll never say no to anything Take That related, I was a die hard fan But yeah they have done quite a few documentaries alright! I'll still watch it though

This Boyzone film never fails to make me laugh out loud.
