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?

I win this thread with the fast food rockers fast food song.

“You don't remember Bwitched?”

”They were before my time I'm afraid.”

Oh god. I never thought B*witched would be the reason I come face to face with my own mortality.

I’M ONLY 31, I’M NOT THAT OLD YET.

Op, if you really want a laugh look up ‘Lolly’.

MaureenDodd · 10/07/2017 21:07

I was 20 in 1998 and thought B*Witched were utter shite.

However. In 1988 I was 10 years old and Bros were the dog's bollocks. See also: Rik i'm still in love with you now I'm 38

ollivander Kavana supported Boyzone at The Point in Dublin and my friend threw her knickers at him and was escorted out Grin

GreeboIsACutePussPuss · 10/07/2017 21:09

You've heard of boyzone, westlife, s club 7!!!! OP please tell me you are really, really young!

And yeah, this was the same time we were all sing 'I'm a barbie girl' at school discos, a lot of lyrics were quite sexual back then.

EccentricPickle · 10/07/2017 21:09

One of my friends was OBSESSED with Kavana. She also loved Peter Loves His Kids Andre. No taste that girl! 😂

KeiraKnightleyActsWithHerTeeth · 10/07/2017 21:09

Why gotta play that song so loud?
BECAUSE WE WANT TO, BECAUSE WE WANT TO
Why always run around in crowds?
BECAUSE WE WANT TO, BECAUSE WE WANT TO

Can we include Blue and 5ive? Although I think 5ive are down to 2ive now.

OohMavis · 10/07/2017 21:10

I was 7 in 1998, I totally knew this was rude Grin

OverthinkingSpartacus · 10/07/2017 21:11

Am almost certain One or two of the bewitched lasses is the sibling of one of the lads from Boyzone.... I remember cos Smash HIts magazine went in about it.

I'm gonna read the lyrics, can't remember them being sexual but I was only 19 at the time.

Sparklingbrook · 10/07/2017 21:11

I loved Bros.

OohMavis · 10/07/2017 21:12

I miss Billie Piper's old teeth.

redlittlesquirrel · 10/07/2017 21:12

I thought this was going to be that R Kelly - trapped in the closet song

Oh, I'd forgotten all about that monstrosity - the original is appalling but I absolutely love Weird Al's version, Trapped in the Drive Thru!

HipsterHunter · 10/07/2017 21:12

I’M ONLY 31, I’M NOT THAT OLD YET

Same!!!!

OP is basically a child. It's the only explanation.

SunnySkiesSleepsintheMorning · 10/07/2017 21:12

Young people these days. I consider myself not old and these were the songs of my pre-teens/early teens. Fucking amazing times.

NuffSaidSam · 10/07/2017 21:12

YABVU!

It's a classic.

I had a poster of them and everything. Grin

Reastie · 10/07/2017 21:12

Aqua! Sometimes I sing the Barbie girl chorus to dd when we play barbies (with a great deep 'come on barbie lets go party' and she didn't believe me that it was a real actual song until I showed her the video on you tube!

KeiraKnightleyActsWithHerTeeth · 10/07/2017 21:13

By the way the only thing that is a joke about that Bewitched video is the way the lad is dressed. He looks like he has gone mad in Chandler from Friends wardrobe.

peachgreen · 10/07/2017 21:13

Every single song on this thread is a classic! Oh, the 90s / early 00s. Never such innocence again. Wink
