I Remember Them But What Did they DO???

I can't sing any Westlife songs even now.

peter andre, on the other hand, is seldom out of my thoughts.
nor bubbler ranks.

JONATHAN RICHMANS favorite song at the time!

"blame it on the weatherman"? "rollercoaster"?

I can't sing any Westlife songs even now.

"world of our own"?

Also, Capella.

"u got 2 know"? "u got 2 let the music"? "helyom halib"?

me, i'm trying but i think i remember at least one song by everyone i've ever heard of. this is a bad thing (see r.e.m., a. morrisette, toploader, all emo, the levellers)

Come to think of it the only record I remember by Queen Latifah was with the Jungle Brothers and I can't remember what it was called....

the Peter Andre song with Warren G was called "All Night All Right" and (bloody hell how do I remember these things?) lifted from A Taste Of Honey's "Boogie Oogie Oogie". it was just about the naffest song this side of 1994 NKOTB.

Queen Latifah's singles include "Dance For Me", "Come Into My House", "Ladies First", "Mama Gave Birth To The Soul Children", "Black Hand Side", "Paper", "U-N-I-T-Y", and "Latifah's Had It Up To Here".

Therapy?

I can never remember how their second biggest hit (Opal Mantra) goes. No probs with almost all of their other singles.

I never knew how I was supposed to say their name in conversation, what with that question mark.

I recall positive feelings towards Therapy?, but can't remember anything either. There were a bunch of UK and Irish guitar bands in that late-80s that were well promoted in the US, and I can't remember much more than the ads in SPIN. Screaming Blue Messiahs (something noveltyish about Flintstones), Godfathers (Work, School, Death...and one other thing), Hothouse Flowers (jangley?), James (more C86?). I think they may have all been better than the subsequent wave of EMF/Ned's Atomic/Jesus Jones, yet I can hum bits of those.

Therapy? were part of the EMF/Ned's/Jesus Jones wave, their first single was 1990, same as Ned's and EMF (Jesus Jones were 1989)

I also can't remember Opal Mantra but can remember the other hits. apart from the post-Troublegum ones I have no idea about those

Still very much going -- in fact, they never stopped! Most recent album last year:

Jesus Jones are playing my town soon. newish venue, which has so far played host to such luminaries as the Stereo MC's and Republica. I haven't been there yet...

Ah, I thought Therapy? were the Undertones associated band, but now my googling has revealed I conflated them with That Petrol Emotion.

xpost -- funnily enough I've been FB friends with Iain Baker from Jesus Jones for some time now. He's a very relaxed fellow in general, treats his career as a job with amusing moments as they go, and has also been pretty vocal about the shitshow Pledgemusic turned into, giving that situation necessary public attention.

I've looked up the lyrics and still don't remember Opal Mantra, in fact Screamager is the only one I remember with any clarity.

istr a clear change between the Wiija releases and what came after, is there any truth to my memories?

I could sing you the chorus of Teethgrinder and probably the entirety of Screamager, Nowhere, and Turn. Never heard of Opal Mantra. Even with the reverse binoculars of history I wouldn't lump them in with Neds etc, they were way more hard rock.

xp yes the Wiiija stuff is quite different (and a lot better), Nurse and Troublegum have their moments, the album after that was horrible, never listened to anything after that
