Wesley Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 I didn't dare click, the preview image looked annoying enough.
Retro_Link Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 (edited) Can't believe they got to No.1... HOW!! Are any of them rejects from talent shows?... they look like the whole band could be. Edited August 9, 2010 by Retro_Link
S.C.G Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 I watched the first 15 seconds featuring some rather generic-sounding violin opening , then the 'singing' started to which my reaction was 'euuuuargh!' - a negative response trust me - and I could watch no more... Seriously... What is this I don't even...
Ashley Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 They were at a signing of my local HMV who have also had N-Dubz and Katie Price so yeah...I figured they weren't any good.
ReZourceman Posted August 9, 2010 Author Posted August 9, 2010 I just wrote a ginormous post about this but internet has gone down. I will post my very interesting thoughts in ful tomorrow morning.
ipaul Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 That's awful. I hate it even more than Fireflies. While this thread is here and we're talking about fairly shit music, click on this video at 3.14: Recognise anything? You should... (sorry if I've ever pointed this out before)
ReZourceman Posted August 10, 2010 Author Posted August 10, 2010 About what? The Fucking WANTED. -------- Okay, so I initially posted this video because I was casually watching the music channels and discovered that these strange people had crept upto me with 12 movement w/Stealth and 4 damage Exploit Weaknesses, getting to number 1 with a song I'd literally never heard and I had no idea who the feck they were. I have since let it mull over me and here are my general thoughts. - The video itself is ridiculous and offensive to anyone who watches it. - Them however intrigue me to a degree. A few of them are typical, ultra attractive, boy band fluff, but then you've got the guy who looks like a cartoon character who is a bit out of place, but then the nerdy looking science guy, who is massively out of place. They seem like an unlikely group of super heroes flung together with clashing personalities, but all love each other and have a brotherly bond. - The song itself I find to not be entirely terrible. - The concept of becoming "fans" of them intrigues me. I've liked them on FB, always enjoy going against the norm. I'll have to see what happens from here, but generally speaking my interest is piqued.
Cube Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 These are at number 1? Until I read that I thought that I assumed (after hearing the song from the radio) that they were some bad group that nobody remembered from the 80s. The song certainly fits.
Paj! Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I've liked them on FB, always enjoy going against the norm. They're no.1. That's the opposite of going against the norm.
ReZourceman Posted August 10, 2010 Author Posted August 10, 2010 They're no.1. That's the opposite of going against the norm. Yeah but the kinds of friends I have on FB (well the majority) it will strike a "facepalm" reaction in them.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 They're no.1. That's the opposite of going against the norm. Around these parts, supporting those at no. 1 in mainstream music is against the norm.
Coolness Bears Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 *dramatic pause* ...of my head. i lol'd. :p
Jon Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 Around these parts, supporting those at no. 1 in mainstream music is against the norm. Really? a lot of people seem to fawn over Gaga.
mcj metroid Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 oh jesus christ, this takes me back to the late 90's/early 00's.
Paj! Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 Really? a lot of people seem to fawn over Gaga. She's something a bit different to everything else popular at the moment (to a degree...it's not avant garde stuff...), thank god. Or rather, she does what's popular, a bit differently. I dunno. She's just less of a cookie cutter money machine - it seems like she has some kind of creative spark in there somewhere. I'm sick of her now, as I'm sure most are. I appreciate what she represents though.
Coolness Bears Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 I just had a thought that ReZ needs to dance more. Then I remembered the Power Spin dance already exists. and everything became right in the world.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 You've certainly nailed the style of this type of music video.
Dyson Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 The sand kick at 1:27 is genuinely lolworthy. The dude looks so camp.
