To think this song can't be serious. Please tell me it was created as a joke?

Just came across this song and video on my youtube. Apparently it reached number 1!

I'm traumatised from just watching it!

It was meant as a joke surely?

You're making me feel old op. This is a classic. I never really took in the words when I was younger (too busy watching the overly vibrant video 🤓)

Is it going to blow your mind that the twins were Shane from Boyzone's sisters?

Really?!!

AfunaMbatata · 10/07/2017 20:45

You've been missing out on some great tunes op

Soubriquet · 10/07/2017 20:46

I love B*Witched

Though I must say some songs are a lot more dirty than I remember then as a kid...like vengaboys sha la
La la la

Omg I feel ancient now!

Lapinlapin · 10/07/2017 20:46

I used to love this song.

Thanks though, op, I now feel ancient!

how is that song nearly 20 years old?.

knockknockknock · 10/07/2017 20:46

Err what's rude about it???

GreenHillsOfHome · 10/07/2017 20:47

Nothing sexual about the lyrics compared to today...ds2's favourite songs are Shape of You and that one by the chain smokers...they sound so inappropriate when sung loudly by a seven year old!

Bobbiepin · 10/07/2017 20:47

@faez have you watched the full trapped in the closet series? Its awful but brilliant.

Funko · 10/07/2017 20:47

Ha ha spidey66

Lucked · 10/07/2017 20:48

There is no excuse for me not realising at the time that this song is filthy!! I was in my early twenties not 10 but no only just realised right now.

SaucyJack · 10/07/2017 20:48

"Say you'll do what I don't".

Good clean consensual fun for impressionable teens.

Werecoyote · 10/07/2017 20:48

green Yes really.

This is a tuuuuuune. It takes me back!

OP It was an era of cheese. See also Aqua, S Club 7, Steps, Boyzone, N'Sync, The Vengaboys and The Cartoons.

THE VENGA BUS IS COMING!

my contribution to this thread ;)

BroomstickOfLove · 10/07/2017 20:49

We used to sing,

"Say you're green
Say you crunch
Say you're eaten for lunch
Say you taste good with brie
Celery".

Ah, the nostalgia.

KeiraKnightleyActsWithHerTeeth · 10/07/2017 20:49

Ahahahahah

OP have you ever heard Umm Bop by Hanson? Around the world by Daft Punk?

Sparklingbrook · 10/07/2017 20:50

OMG Hanson. Mmm Bop is a classic. And all three are looking fine these days.

KeiraKnightleyActsWithHerTeeth · 10/07/2017 20:51

Have you seen the video of the people in the street dancing to the Venga Bus? It's the most British thing I have ever seen

DrHorribletookmycherry · 10/07/2017 20:53

People saying this is a song from their childhood. OK. I am old then.

queenofthedump · 10/07/2017 20:53

I loved that song!!! Still know all the words Blush

EccentricPickle · 10/07/2017 20:54

Ah, nostalgia!

1998 I was 14/15. It was all cheese then!

Op, have you seen the horror that is Eiffel '65 (Blue da ba de)? Or Sweet Like Chocolate? (I can't remember who sang that).

Upyourdaisy · 10/07/2017 20:54

Out2pasture oh my good lord i remember that song!!! secretly sneaks off to download

BroomstickOfLove Grin that's brilliant!!!

memyselfandaye · 10/07/2017 20:54

Don't Hanson have a fuckton of kids between them now?

MissionItsPossible · 10/07/2017 20:54

I feel old now! And I think songs used to be more sexual and yet I remember being at primary school at the school disco singing "I'm horny, horny horny horny" and "I wanna have sex on the beach" complete with thrusting motions Blush
