Duran Duran was HUUUUUGE. I'm surprised @derek harvey is the first to mention. Though not sure they qualify as 'boy band' in quite the same way (just as the Beatles aren't).
Beatles were the ultimate boy band when they started. Screeching and fainting girls, mob scenes etc. unlike every other boy band, they grew as artists as the matured. I suppose you had to be alive during the 60s to recognize the phenomenon that they were. Plus adults loved them too.
The Beatles were no boyband. Jesus. Read of their origins, time in Hamburg.... I thought boybands were more formulaic. The Beatles were groundbreaking artists (who admittedly couldn't all play their instruments too well to begin with (. What next? The Stones? The Stooges? The New york Dolls. *end rant*
The Beatles were too a boy band. They played schmaltzy music, aimed at lil girls. It wasn't until they started getting high that they made great albums.
Count: it's she loves you.... They were groundbreaking, as up to that point, there'd been elvis. Then these weird looking liverpudlians, who wrote their own songs, trailblazed across the world with their own distinctive look and sound. It was please please me, and other early shits that provided them with the foundations on which to build their all-time classics.
The name boy band is a misnomer. A boy band is a manufactured singing group (with or without dancing). The Beatles' look was masterminded by their manager, but their music and persona was entirely their own. They were a BAND.
@Count The filmed concerts give a false impression of The Beatles original fan base. Their music wasn't only bought by young girls.
The "most popular" would have to have been successful in North America, Europe and Asia. I'd think that was Backstreet Boys. Followed by New Kids on the Block.
the CDANers on PC's don't know which comments you guys are referencing without the proverbial @so-and-so. the PC puts the comments in chronological order and the phone version will put the comment under the appropriate comment no @so-and-so needed.
my common sense tells me that TRILBY is referring to Yoj's 2:35 comment but I am not sure. she could have put that under the first comment. just a reminder. sometimes I wonder if certain comments are meant for me but have no way of knowing.

@Bee: No matter how hard ya stomp yer foot about it, they were a boy band, until they started consuming large amounts of drugs.
And saying there was only Elvis is completely shitting on all the early greats who built rock n roll. Buddy Holly and the Crickets, Bill Haley and the Comets, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, etc.
I'm afraid that if I read the one on Jezebel, them testicularly challenged people will attempt to convince me that unless I have a written consent form, in duplicate, w/ video footage of the signing, and an exit interview recapping the encounter, then sticking my tongue in a broad's fart locker is rape.
Plus I heard there are no hardcore sex gifs (can you believe they called them "rape" gifs in a blatant turn of yellow journalism) in the comment section anymore.
It's the same article! "If it's clean, it's cuisine." Do you comment on Gawker?
Testicularly challenged is a very negative way of putting it, Count. We prefer differently sexed.
To be fair to Jezebel, it's not as though the internet is experiencing a shortage of porn sites. Not everyone likes bestiality with their social commentary.
Okay, Count, serious question now. Is it really as pleasurable for women as it is for men? I'm not gonna go through the potentially awkward process of asking an (already awkward) Englishman to do this for me, if it's not gonna be worth it.
Ass eating alone, may not be as pleasurable, but when combined w/ vibe on clit or finger bang, it is an accelerator, takes you to new heights, can trigger an O if timed right and can make the ride of the O more fun. Yer adding another erogenous zone to the equation, it aint gonna be bad.
Basically same as I said w/ a dude, when ya see the b-hole pucker as yer stimulating the clit and getting them close to an O, apply pressure w/ tongue.
If ya ever get a 3 way going, have one eat yer butt while the other is licking yer clit. I'd imagine that is as good as a dude getting his ass licked during a BJ, borderline sensory overload.
Re Jezebel: The parent company was dumb enough to put a system into place that allowed users to embed that kind of content, they get no pity. This joint you can link it, and no one is forced to click. If ya open the door to the hen house, don't be surprised if the foxes have a feast.
And to be fair, they used the word "rape" just to sensationalize and make them sound more like victims. They claim to be a site for women, yet they debase the meaning of "rape"? That is pathetic.
N*Sync!

ReplyDelete2Gether
ReplyDelete@VIPBlonde. That is hilarious. Friend(s) of yours?
ReplyDeleteAnd another unqualified candidate: O-Town. Anyone else remember that show?
Menudo.
ReplyDeleteThey kept replacing members and the success continued.
I remember O Town and LFO
ReplyDeleteHaha! O Town! I totally watched their show on MTV and made fun of Ashley Parker Angel and his girlfriend.
DeleteI danced with Trevor at a club in Vegas and met Ashley. We thought we were SOOOO cool back then haha! *Liquid Dreams*
DeleteThe four tenors
ReplyDeleteNKOTB! Lol
ReplyDeleteBSB! Still love them!
ReplyDeleteIn Boston there's only one correct answer to that question and no one's said them yet.
ReplyDelete@M. Brown, cool it now!
DeleteOk. In Boston we might have two correct answers to that question depending on which neighborhood you 're in.
DeleteAs I recall, Ashley Parker Angel and his girlfriend were both in desperate need of a slap upside the head.
ReplyDeleteI even remember her name, Shelly.
DeleteIt's tearing up my heart that no one else chose N*Sync.
ReplyDeleteI loved Davey Jones, so much. Even if I was watching it in syndication 10 years later.
ReplyDeleteLol @Karen!
ReplyDeleteSomeone has to come up with some analytical data on sales and stuff!
@Lotta BSB FTW!
DeleteWithout a doubt, Backstreet Boys.
ReplyDeleteBritney - you mean the Backdoor Boys.
DeleteNo, I wasn't referring to your boyfriend!
DeleteTouche'
Delete3Deep starring Eddie Cibrian Rimes
ReplyDelete@Sarah, I thank you for letting me know Eddie was in a boy band. Wow. Just wow.
Deletethe beatles
ReplyDeleteHistorically the Beatles, but they were never referred to as what we now have termed boy band, so I would say N'Sync.
ReplyDeletethe best ones were The Beatles and Duran Duran
ReplyDeleteand Boyx II Men! End of the Road!
ReplyDeleteDuran Duran was HUUUUUGE. I'm surprised @derek harvey is the first to mention. Though not sure they qualify as 'boy band' in quite the same way (just as the Beatles aren't).

Jen got it. Beatles were the hottest boy band ever.
ReplyDeleteIf you wanna be specific, then the others mentioned (BSB, NKOTB, etc) aren't even bands, just song and dance acts.

CLASSIC freudian slip. Sh*ts=hits!
DeleteC'mon, hands down the beatles.
ReplyDeleteAnd count, i think it was just for fun!
If we're including the beatles, I'm throwing in Iggy and the Stooges, the Ramones, Sex Pistols, black flag and Slayer
ReplyDelete:-)
New Kids on the Block!!
ReplyDeleteI almost fainted when I saw them in concert
The name boy band is a misnomer. A boy band is a manufactured singing group (with or without dancing). The Beatles' look was masterminded by their manager, but their music and persona was entirely their own. They were a BAND.

ReplyDeleteNew kids were definitely the predecessor to the boy band phenomenon of the 90's in the true manufactured pop way. And oh Donnie how I loved you!

Count. They were doing drugs (eff loads of speed) before they released their first single! Lol.

ReplyDeleteThere's an article on Jezebel.com about the growing trend of analingus amongst heterosexuals. It made me think of you;)
I'll stick to the one on Gawker:
ReplyDeleteSFW GAWKER article

Stones
ReplyDeleteOTHER than the Beatles, probably NKOTB or Take That.
ReplyDeleteI refuse to consider The Beatles, Stones, etc, because they were not Boy Bands (by my definition) and it's ludicrous to include them.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised no one seems to have mentioned One Direction. They are The Beatles of Boy Bands.
I think BSB because they had a larger international audience. N*sync weren't a massive deal in Aus.
ReplyDeleteLove Me Do, real game changer in the world of Rock n Roll. Totally not bubble gum pop, boy band stuff aimed a teenage girls.
ReplyDelete@Count Jerkula
ReplyDeleteSorry for the late reply, Count. THANK YOU for the advice. With you and @Annie Hall as my gurus, I will finally have great sex, I will.
@Bee: Fine. Psychedelic Drugs. You still haven't made a single point to make them not a boy band.
ReplyDeleteI Saw Her Standing There, innovative stuff.
I cut and pasted the lyrics, but I felt it was overkill, so I deleted them.
