Title: Remember when Boy bands were "hot"?
Post by: Tupin on September 27, 2007, 04:52:00 PM
I remember when Destiny's Child, The A Teens, N'sync and Britney Spears was all people listened to. Man, they sucked. The late 90's was some period in pop culture, huh?

I'm sorry to tell you but Destiny's Child, the A Teens, and Britney Spears are not boy bands.

Destiny's Child was comprised of 3 women.
The A Teens were pretty much Abba rip-offs, 2 boys & 2 girls.
N*Sync was 4 or 5 guys.
Britney Spears was one whore.  :P

Boy bands are bands made up of all boys that sing and dance. N*Sync , like you said. Backstreet Boys were another...98 Degrees, and Hansen.

The scary thing is that I bought like 3 of the mentioned artists' CD's when I was smaller.

Mmm...Bop!

Yeah, I remember when Hanson, Backstreet Boys, 98 degrees, N*Sync, LFO, the Moffatts, and BB Mak were all over the radio, and that show about O-Town was all the rage (on Fox? I forget).

They were crazy times, but I think everyone had at least one boy band song stuck in their head FOREVER. lol

AHA! I knew O-Town was a band! I just wasn't too sure...

I wouldn't be surprised if the show was on MTV though...

I can't tell what usage of the word "hot" you're using.

Hot as in warm.

Hot as in attractive.

Or hot as in popular.

CURSE ENGLISH AND IT'S WORDS WITH MULTIPLE MEANINGS.

Before rap and hip hop dominated the radio stations...

*sigh* I can't find a good channel that plays rock. And I don't mean rock like 1900s boy bands, or Led Zepplin rock.. I mean punk/emoish/alternative rock. Is there even such a radio station?

I actually liked some of the band's you listed.
Despite what culture they manage to bring in,
as long as music makes you happy, what difference does it make?
