"Ha - Manufactured bands reach a new low! Twice!"

Anyone heard of Allstars? What a croc of *Language Please*! Apparently their initials spell STAR - wow, that's amazing, I might just go and buy their album on the basis of that. Worst bit? Well, two actually. One of them used to be in Hollyoaks, Channel 4's fat sow, as a character that argued loads with a pikey. Second is that the only song they've released thus far is a cover of a not very well known Bucks Fizz song.

But even worse than ex-Hollyoaker forging himself a pop carrer? Has to be the two children they've got singing the theme tune to 'Never Ending Story'. All together now 'Never enging stooreeeeee'.

Christ, when will music get back on track.

yeah, and hopefully then we will only get decent music instead of the pop crap that is aparrently 'popular' Why don't people realise pop music is crap and listen to decent music (Nirvana etc.)

they won't last much longer anyway. you can only rhyme
now you've taken my heart
my whole life's fallen apart

a few more times, manufactured bands have used it 1000's of times. give it a few more years and eventually the dumb teeny bopper girls will eventually realise it sucks brass monkeys

yeah, I truely do wonder who buys stuff by all these manufactured bands... They all sound the same! They all have these nice, sickeningly happy lyrics like nothing can ever go wrong in the world and everything is completely peachy! Now I'm not saying that they should be depressing or anything, just show SOME references to reality, not all this sickeningly sweet and smiley crap.

A couple of years ago I witnissed a boyband called 'Scandal' at a bonfire night roadshow in Harlow Town Park/Gypsy vacation site. It was four blokes making up a vocal-harmonic group, but one had a guitar - just to make it that little bit more authentic. Anyway, point of the story. Recently I saw the same said 'Scandal' on the Box, a video for 'Champagne Highway'.

What is the worst:

IS boy bands in which one plays a s****y acoustic guitar very badly...

" What a great idea, get five morons and get one to play A chord constantly on a £10 guitar "

just take all the teenage girls pocket money away and then you'll notice a considerable drop in sales of these crap groups albums. it's usually them and kids under 10 who buy this rubbish anyway.

Heh. That bloke played Darren in Hollyoaks, God he's a pratt.

Gone are the days of talented song writers and performers.
The only ones that seem to make it are the manufactured bands which take music down lower and lower.
