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?

At the last count I believe it was 12. Grin

ALemonyPea · 10/07/2017 20:58

It's threads like this that make me feel old.

I loved the double denimed delights that were B*witched. Many a night down the pub were had trying to drunken jig to that song.

Ketchup Song anyone?

OhHolyFuck · 10/07/2017 21:00

This song wasn't serious - sure I read it was a dare between Simon cowell and another music producer he couldn't get this shite to number one

EccentricPickle · 10/07/2017 21:00

Does anyone remember that the even younger sister of Shane from Boyzone and the twins from B*Witched was a in a duo and they had a song out that was utterly shit. My friend and I used to take the piss out of it.

I'm going to see if I can find it...

Addley · 10/07/2017 21:02

Dammit Keira I was gonna post that!

Will put it here anyway so people don't have to click out.

RebelRogue · 10/07/2017 21:02

If this shocked you OP then I highly recommend

Love a bit of 90s cheesy pop!

I was once front row of Wembley arena. what I never tell people when I proudly tell them this fact in rare occasions is that the fabulous seats of the concert in question was a bwitched concert!

EccentricPickle · 10/07/2017 21:05

Hip Hop House of horrors indeed 😂

Upyourdaisy · 10/07/2017 21:05

At least they're not openly brazen like todays songs, my girls (5 & 8) listen to a song called 'swalla (swallow??) By Jason derulo... the beats there but the words make me sick in my mouth!

Remember this one? https://m.youtube.com/watch?params=EAEYAdoBAggB&v=y1BrhzaEHvs&mode=NORMAL

KeiraKnightleyActsWithHerTeeth · 10/07/2017 21:06

A girl in my school punched another girl in the face for saying Louise Redknap wouldn't have a successful singing career. What a privilege to be a teen at that time.

911, Boyzone, Steps, Eternal, East17, Savage Garden, 5ive, Billie Piper, Kavana, Geri Halliwell's solo career Shock, Aqua, Texas, Hanson, Spice Girls, Upside Down, Peter Andre, North and South, Northern Line.

Basically anything on the classic CD Now 28!

mamatiger83 · 10/07/2017 21:07

I saw them, they were one of the opening acts when I went to see 911 when I was 13!!!
