anyone remember girl thing ? i have just discovered i still know the lyrics word for word

in hindsight this video was an unbelievable rip off of wannabe...can't believe i didn't see it at the time 😅

Thank you for this, I’ve watched so much of his channel in the last few days! I do enjoy his hate for Adam Levine. The most recent one I watched was ‘you get what you give’ by the new radicals, brilliant song.

Thank you so much for recommending Todd in The Shadows, I'm having a blast with the videos! Snort -laughed when he said " “michael jackson had a better decade than alien ant farm. and he DIED.” in this video on Smooth Criminal.

Does anyone else remember being disappointed with series 2 of Pop Idol? For me, maybe a combination of the novelty wearing off, and just not being excited about the contestants.

Should we do a new thread and broaden the topic a little? Like 90s/00s pop? Or is there a thread on that already?

yes! I remember thinking it was really poor in comparison to series 1- and Michelle was the front runner all the way through right? I was pretty glad it was axed meaning that they brought in XF so there was a much more interesting combo of solo/groups rather than just a karaoke competition.

Yes, I remember really enjoying XF series 1 the following year. It looks a bit shaky watching from 18 years on, but it definitely shook things up from the Pop Idol format with more variety of acts and more entertaining judges.

Browsing on Youtube and just remembered the Pop Idol 2 charity single 'War is Over'. It's ruddy awful! Not much star quality in that lot.

My favourite was pop stars the rivals. I remember being gutted when Nicola didn’t get through but then someone dropped out/was too old or something and she got a “surprise” visit at home to tell her she was through. Also think that was the series with the 16 year old who “shockingly” turned out to actually be 13 or something. I miss the days of believing every bit of reality TV 😂🤣

Oh yeah, So Solid Crew had loads of members too. I think you’re thinking of Ashley Walters. He’s an actor now
