Like it or not, everyone had, at one time, a favorite boy band. Beetles, New Kids Otak Tak Betul, Gayzone, Michael Learns to Suck. My favorite “boy” band, though I only loved (still do) 4 songs from them, was, *DRUM ROLL*…..Color Me Badd! Having said that, I detested “I Wanna Sex You Up” and “I Adore Mi Amor”. Gangrening songs. It was “All For Love” that had me balled over. It was so sensuous, and cool at the same time, that 15 year olds found it difficult not to bop to.
Who was/is your favorite boyband? Guys Next Door? Backstreet Boys? N Sync? Nirvana? LOL

Is Wham! considered as a boyband ke? And there’s Take That. Boys II Men. Oh, not forgetting Westlife.
October 12th, 2006 at 10:25am
my boyband ah?? Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Grand Funk Railroad, Dream Theater, ACDC…
October 12th, 2006 at 10:32am
Larawannabe Well, I don’t think Wham’s a boyband as their songs are not “manufactured”. Take That’s definitely a boy band. I hate Westlife, they’re desecrating old songs. Uptown Girl will never be the same again. LOL
Kenny Ng Dude, by boyband I mean manufactured popcorn stuff. Having said that, Pink Floyd’s definitely a boyband. Hahahaha!

No particular faves. Just trying to recall who were the popular ones that haven’t been named yet.
A1, Boyzone, Savage Garden, BBmak, 98 Degrees.
What about Il Divo???
October 12th, 2006 at 11:58am
I like whoever band that sings the song “I swear”
BOYZ II MEN or BOYZONE…yea I like IIDIvo if considered as boyband la.
October 12th, 2006 at 12:03pm
Jemima 98 Degrees - Invisible Man + Take My Breath Away (no, it’s not a Berlin remake). Il Divo is not a boyband, it’s a gayband. LOL.
meekiee All 4 One? Boyz II Men is not a boyband as their music is no way “manufactured popcorn”. Same goes to Il Divo.
October 12th, 2006 at 12:04pm
WasteLife, CantSing, Backside Boys, Suck That, Boys Do It To Men, these were alternative names often given to boy bands by some.
My fave? At one time, it was 911 and I listened to 911 for 6 months before I found out they are not African-Americans but caucasians! (The other misconception was I have always thought that Steve Winwood is black until I saw his face on the cover of Back In The High Life album)
Thereafter my fave boyband remained the Backside Boys until today. Their early songs are pure boyband songs written to drive young chicks wild with orgasm, but their later works are better and more serious.
October 12th, 2006 at 12:07pm
Wombat Agreed. Backside Boys’ new material is much better, moving away from popcorn stuff. Tho I’d have to admit, I did like “As Long As You Love Me” for cheesy reasons. LOL. Steve Winwood is definitely white!
October 12th, 2006 at 1:20pm
Mine are NKOTB, Boyzone & Backstreet Boys *PEACE*
October 12th, 2006 at 1:27pm
Mine.. lol. I love Michael learns to rock, blue
used to like Westlife, BSB and Nsync.
Ok i shud stop now.
October 12th, 2006 at 4:23pm
hmmm…i was never really a fan of boy bands, per se. the closest thing would probably be boy rock bands. i was a big follower of kurt cobain’s nirvana and guns n roses
October 12th, 2006 at 4:38pm
Savage Garden is not a boyband… And it’s a real pity that they splitted. The songs they write together are just awesome!!
October 12th, 2006 at 5:26pm
I was never much of a fan of boybands…I some how find that some what quite strange for a girl…
Hmmm…
October 12th, 2006 at 6:05pm
I never liked Wastelife as they remake many of Abba’s songs.
Nirvana a boy band ??? You must be kidding. They’re geniuses. RIP Kurt Cobain !!!!
My favourite boy band ? Hmm…. not really into them. But Backside Boys fared well among the rest of them. Wombat is right.. they’re getting more serious in their music.
Btw, Oasis rawk !!
October 12th, 2006 at 7:37pm
Not a fan of commercial boybands that’s definite. But dont mind Take That only because Robbie Williams is sexy
. And must admit that New Kids On The Block had me hooked for a while n years ago, especially the Hangin’ Tough album..hehehehe
October 12th, 2006 at 8:03pm
All boybands are fake. They are just gay boys lip syncing
October 12th, 2006 at 9:04pm
All 4 One, Micheal Learns to Rock, Take That… gosh that was eons ago!!
October 12th, 2006 at 9:52pm
wow i see so many bhoybands here..
durin my *erhem* primary-secondary sch years.. it was backstreet boys, savage garden, michael learns to rock (lol my mum loved this band), A1, Take That, … yeah till it became Coldplay, Snow Patrol, Bloc Party..
yeah never reli liked Westlife though… but then later i tot they were not bad. Hmm.. Does the 3 tenors count? Pavarroti, placido domingo, and carreras?wahahha…
October 12th, 2006 at 10:23pm
Che-Cheh The only song that I like from Otak Tak Betul was Cover Girl during Form 1.
Boyzone should be banned from radios. Period.
Sha MLTR? Omigosh…Sha, walk towards the light! LOL.
Laksa Agreed. No one are boyband fans, the sane ones at least. Hahahaha! Never a fan of Nirvana though.
Joash Savage Garden is no boyband, though they come really close. I like “Santa Monica”.
Ness That is strange. Is there something you not telling us? LOL
endroo G Westlife killed music. I was pulling your leg w the Nirvana thing. But I don’t think Cobain’s a genius, they only became famous because he died and there was a lot of angst at that time after what boybands gave us.
Oasis is alright with me, definitely not a boyband.
tihtahpah Isn’t Take That is a bootleg version of NKOTB? That Hangin Tough album, well, was so-so, but when their second album was launched, it made Hangin Tough a classic. LOL
Lex Color Me Badd don’t lip sync. At least not that I know of.
philters Made you feel old now, didn’t I? LOL. Stick around, there’s more where that came from…
Alex MLTR are definitely popcorn. If you play their songs non-stop, you wouldn’t notice the difference. Suddenly remembered Trademark, Nu Flavor and Dakota Moon, though I don’t think Dakota Moon falls in this category.
October 13th, 2006 at 1:38am
ALEX: DOES CHRIS MARTIN AND CO LOOK LIKE “BOYBAND” ????!!!! GO CHECK IT OUT MAN.
Galli: well… i dont know what d’ya think bout Nirvana… to me.. I define boyband are those who dont play instrument in their performances. Plain dancing and doing movez are boyband. Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, Will Champion and the likes…. don’t look “boyband” to me. What say you?
Joash: They said Darren Hayz is a gay. Is it true??
October 13th, 2006 at 4:05am
Daniel, will get back to you on that one.
I am currently looking at boyband posters to see if they could ’stir’ any feelings in me. LOL.
I am abit worried now actually cause I don’t remember being a groupie to any boybands.
October 13th, 2006 at 4:24pm
endroo G Of course Nirvana’s not a boyband. But that doesn’t mean I like ‘em.
Polly wants a cracker? Come on…LOL
Ness Well, good thing you’re not a groupie. But don’t you like ANY boyband song? I’m sure there’s one somewhere….but please not Westlife and Boyzone - Irish boybands suck.
October 13th, 2006 at 7:08pm
errr … Duran Duran? UB40?
October 14th, 2006 at 12:00am
Galli: Rape me…. rape me… rape me, my friend…. gee.
October 14th, 2006 at 1:04pm
earl-ku Nope, definitely not boy-bands. Here’s a small fact for ya, both of these bands hail from Birmingham.
endroo G Weird song la…sounds like a b-grade version of Smells…
October 16th, 2006 at 3:50pm
Endroo G: I don’t know if Darren Hayz is gay. Can’t tell from the music. Just like Elton John… haha.
October 20th, 2006 at 1:15am
sort of… they’re all guys. they haf their own kix ass band. and they’re british. lmao
May 20th, 2007 at 4:30am
