Who?? some of the youngsters (and Rita) might say.

Who indeed. But he was the pretty boy lead singer- and they had a number 2 hit, dontcha know (altogether now ...'the harder I tryyyyyy' ooooh'. )

1988 seems so very long ago. SadGrin

Here's the song list:

Newtion Matthews
John Legend – Who Did That To You?

Hannah Wildes
Nelly Furtado – All Good Things Come To An End

Alex David Charles
Stevie Wonder – I Wish

Karis Thomas
Joss Stone – Right To Be Wrong

Harris Hameed
Timbaland – Apologize

Stephen Cornwell
5 Seconds Of Summer – She Looks So Perfect

Kate Flynn
Foo Fighters – Best Of You

Krazy Horse
Creedence Clearwater Revival – Bad Moon Rising

Vikesh Champaneri
Adele – Hometown Glory

Rozzy
Jessie J, Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj – Bang Bang

Brooklyn
Nicki Minaj – Superbass

Nathan Moore
White Stripes – Seven Nation Army

Claudia Rose
Jennifer Hudson – Love You I Do

I'm hoping 'Newtion' is a typo.

Hi, more has beens trying again ..! Was it Pete Waterman who liked Brother Beyond or were they one of the Stock Aitken Waterman artists?

Raahh · 07/02/2015 13:57

I'm not sure. I think he ended up singing in 'World's Apart' too.

They were kind of Bros wannabes Grin

I remember them being around at the same time as Johnny Hates Jazz.

By the end of this series, i expect all Boyband ex-singers will have auditioned.

The harder I try...

Sparklingbrook · 07/02/2015 14:04

Do you remember 'Totally Scott-Lee' with the professionally bitter 'Lisa Scott-Lee off of Steps? Nathan was her manager. Hahahahahaha. Grin

Ilovereadingbooks · 07/02/2015 14:27

Yes, i dont think lisa did as well as Claire and H who went down the ' go on any reality show going' route to stay 'relevant' ! All 80s boybands , especially with a Welsh connection, will be giving fame another try.. Its tough in the showbiz world.

Sparklingbrook · 07/02/2015 14:31

She had a permanent face on her during the Steps reunion thing. It was brilliant. Grin

Ilovereadingbooks · 07/02/2015 14:40

Hmmm, was never a fan of the lisa ( H was funny though, not in a good way) used to get Steps n S club mixed up, same with Busted and mcfly, who did actually get together just to stop my confusion..

Sparklingbrook · 07/02/2015 14:41

YY fortunately no news of Steps Club 7 that I know of.

Ilovereadingbooks · 07/02/2015 14:48

They did a reunion on children in need last year ,not seen since. Probably doing gigs somewhere. Bless em.

Ilovereadingbooks · 07/02/2015 14:56

Het, just remembered something.. Michelle heaton from liberty x was married to lisa scott -lee's brother for a year or so. Its a tangled world being n a boy/girl band.

Sparklingbrook · 07/02/2015 15:02

Oh yes Ilove and LSL hated it. There was a hoo-har because I think MH and the brother told OK they were getting married before LSL. It was great. Grin

Ilovereadingbooks · 07/02/2015 15:07

Michelle did a reality show ' the effects of alcohol' - she was out partying every night. The scott lee brother ( cant think of his name?) was so fed up with her rolling in plastered, even though it was for an experiment! I must have been bored to watch this. They split up not lng after.she came across as totally self absorbed.

RudolphUcker · 07/02/2015 16:05

Lisa was a hard faced wan, innit?

I loved Brother Beyond. The harder i try
I had their autographs. Would be sods law if your man becomes famous now and I could have kept it, and sold it for gazillions.

Ilovereadingbooks · 07/02/2015 16:22

I am going around humming ' the harder i try..ooo' etc. gettting funny looks from youngest son ' more 80s crap, mum? ' blooming cheek. Because im not keen on paramore or daft punk.! I would hang on to the autographs, it may be his big break working with s tom.

Raahh · 07/02/2015 16:34

I have been singing 'The harder I try' ever since i started the thread. It is a real ear-worm. It has ousted Hozier 'Take me to church' as the 'song currently stuck in my head'. Grin

S Club7 were dreadful on Children in Need. Few of them have aged well- and Jo has completely lost whatever voice she had.

I expect to see her auditioning for The Voice next year, when the reunion fails.

Um did anyone see Atomic kitten on CBBBOTS last night. My ears. Sad

I was hoping The Harder i Try' would replace my ear worm of 'Love me like you do' but it hasn't yet.

Raahh · 07/02/2015 16:42

'Love me like you do' is quite catchy for a song that isn't that catchy (iyswimGrin). Having seen the video, Jamie Dornan looks better with a beard, imo. I won't be rushing to see the filmGrin

Raahh, i keep on hearing that church record - whydoes he want to go ? Had a trip to norwich n back on wednesday, must have heard it about 3 times on the radio ( or in car entertainment system, as its known lol) Its very annoying.
B beyond sings try in an odd fashion..

RudolphUcker · 07/02/2015 16:45

Who wants to go to church? And why can he not just go? Transport issues?

TheSpottedZebra · 07/02/2015 16:47

Andy. It was Andy Scott-Lee.

Do you remember when Lisa S-L promised that she'd give up the music business FOREVER if her song didn't go top 10 (or whatever benchmark she set). Of course it didn't, and then - she didn't bloody give up, the lying cahh.

Raahh · 07/02/2015 16:48

Ilove-I really like the song. I don't think it's actually about churches. I think it's about the sex. I might be wrong. Don't watch the video, though- it's very sad. Sad.

I may be swayed by the fact Hozier is a rather fine looking man. I old enough to be his mother, and about as tall as his leg

Grin

Andy, of course! He with the 'famous' sister and ex wife from Liberty x. I bet he has a story to tell up
the pub.
Church n sex? Really. ? Have to google the video. Sounds very odd

Sparklingbrook · 07/02/2015 16:57

#What are you waiting fooooorrrr# It's really stuck in there. Ellie Goulding looks fabulous in the video. I had never heard of Jamie D. He doesn't do it for me. Dakota Johnson is the daughter of Melanie Griffiths and Don Johnson-I started a thread about it, and it got derailed nicely with us posting beautiful men. Grin

Sparklingbrook · 07/02/2015 16:58

Yes Zebra. LSL and her DH off of Hearsay now live in Dubai.

RudolphUcker · 07/02/2015 17:01

Who is her DH off of off HearAPOSTROPHESay?
