To all my American friends, happy 4th of July! ^^

It's boy bands revival time over here! ROFL. x_emy_x and I, being supremely bored yesterday, scoured YouTube for tacky 90's videos and I stumbled upon a few of Worlds Apart. Who here remembers those guys? If you don't (or haven't ever heard about them), suffice it to say when the Backstreet Boys and N'Sync came to Europe, they opened for Worlds Apart. They were my first love, haha. I was hardcore. I hadn't listened to them in years! LOL, they were so tacky. Let me waste a small part of your day with my reminiscing - I've embedded a couple of my YouTube findings under the cut:


Baby Come Back - first big hit, 1996

Everybody (1996)

Je Te Donne (1997)

Back To Where We Started (1998)

Performing She Loves You on German TV

(who said "sacrilegious"? xD)


In conclusion: HAHAHAHAHAHA OMG! I loved them liekwhoa. I found a couple of those guys' MySpaces pages, LOL. They're supposed to make a comeback in the fall. I AM SO THERE. XD

*dies* I so loved 'Je te donne'
I was so in love with those guys ... thank you for my laugh of the day

[gossy16.livejournal.com]

You are most welcome! XD

Umm.

On the "Back to where we started" video they say, "I'll be your brother, your lover, your friend." Eww. Umm. Why your brother? Eww.

Haha! I watched a little bit of the first one too. HAHAA! Now, that is just bad. Funny as hell.

[gossy16.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that really made me pause and go "wtf?" even as I was a just 12-year-old teenybopper wannabe.

Haha, gosh, the ridiculous scenes and choreographies. It's a monument to the art of kitsch. xD

Thanks!

ooh, I wish I had time to watch the cheese

[gossy16.livejournal.com]

Oh but this is a kind of cheese that gets better with age, LOL.

OMG LMAO!!!!!!

to be fair, I think they were a little less worse than the French Boys Bands... because they were singing in English, so we couldn't understand right away the "lyrics"

the Je Te Donne video is horrible, the colors of the clothes keep changing everytime they pat each other or sth (and they butchered the song but anyway)

[hobbitofkobol.livejournal.com]

also, my friends and I had a running joke about the long-haired guy because he had a ridiculous name (schlim?) and was useless

[gossy16.livejournal.com]

Haha, Schelim! He was totally useless - except maybe to appeal to the gay crowd? And I was sooooooo worried when he left the band, I thought they were going to break up and, oh, there were TEARS. >_<  But then they got a new cutie to replace him, and all was well with the world. XD

[gossy16.livejournal.com]

LOL, yeah, they were the top of the crop, but it just wasn't a very good crop to begin with. They did help some with my English learning, heh, so I shouldn't be mocking them too much. XD

Bwahaha when I saw that video again the other day, I was just baffled at how cheap and ridiculous it all looked. XD

[subtle--sarcasm.livejournal.com]

loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool I totally remember them :D :D But I was a total "Caught in the Act" girl back then :D :D Did you guys know them in France? They were this Dutch/British combo. Hahaha, they were so fantastically bad. :D

[gossy16.livejournal.com]

YES! :D :D :D :D :D Man, I was on like 3 of their concerts! :D :D They were my very first music fandom :D :D :D

A few months ago Sarah and I got bored and started cleaning up her room, and we stumbled upon her Caught in the Act Box, with all the magazine cut-outs and videos and everything. Clearly we did nothing else but watch/read them for the rest of the night :D :D :D

[gossy16.livejournal.com]

OH MAN, NOW I FEEL THE URGE TO LISTEN TO WORLDS APARTS' CDS AGAIN! I ONLY SAW THEM LIVE ONCE B/C I LIVE IN A CRAPPY REMOTE TOWN, LOLZ

[subtle--sarcasm.livejournal.com]

SJKFHSDJFF;SDKJAKJFKLDSFSDJ XD XD XD XD

[gossy16.livejournal.com]

OMFG LOOK AT THAT FASHION! XD ROFL, WIN!

[cybeleadam.livejournal.com]

I loved Caught In The Act too. I even went to see the musical Aida in the Netherlands when Bastiaan played Radames, although I can barely understand a few sentences of Dutch. But I must admit I didn't know them at all when they were still singing together. I became a fan and bought the albums and videos after I heard about them because Eloy was with Stephen Gately.

[cybeleadam.livejournal.com]

lol Thanks for that.
I was much too old to be a fan but still, I was. ^^ (And you may remember I slashed Cal and Steve lol).

Euh... Pourquoi je te parle en anglais ? lol

[gossy16.livejournal.com]

Hee, you're welcome ;D

Haha, they're totally who I'd slash, too, because they've been in Worlds Apart the longest and they'd just be too darn cute. Alas, Cal's got a kid and Steve's got a "Lolla". :(

Je sais pas! mdr
