Vengaboys

Okay i don’t care what you say... Wooo Whooooo ~ The Vengaboys have reportedly filmed a new music video in London.
The band has just finished a sellout UK / Ireland (as well as the rest of Europe) promotional tour and are now said to be planning a fulltime pop comeback.
The band wrote on their Twitter page: “In London for the videoshoot... It's gonna be a 19 hour workday but i promise you, it'll be SO worth it!” the group wrote on Twitter.
The Vengaboys sold 15 MILLION records during their time! And for all their cheese, they will (along with Aqua) always bring a smile to my face :-)

  1. Unlike a lot of the groups that the veteran pop commentator, Alan Whiteman, dredges up from the murky depths of his memory (where presumably they all live still, as fresh as daisies) I do actually remember this group. I was madly in love with them when I was 8 or 9, or 7? Go Vengaboys!!!

  2. Okay so according to my worst case Maths that would put you around the 18 mark...?

    Nope not a banker, (So you can’t blame me for the state of the global economy)

    FYI: There’s nothing wrong my memory (as far as i know – Not counting after a night out of course, but you still being a baby wouldn’t know about that sort of thing yet!)

  3. Just 20 actually. Knocking at the door of senility. How lucky (sometimes unlucky) I look so much younger - unlike some, baby. So was I older when I was in love with Vengaboys? Not banker. Hmmm! Could it be casino enforcer, loan shark, debt collector? You didn't answer the question as to whether you sell the stuff you write? Seems quite polished and professional, except for the spelling of course. ;-)

  4. Lmao – No, i don’t sell ‘em, just do it for fun, and on behalf of ‘The O2’ (there’s a link to the blog on their website.
    20, wow, i wouldn’t of put you that old!
    Not a Casino enforcer, loan shark or Debt collector ... If i had my way though, i’d be a travel presenter seen as i’m always on holiday (it’d be good to get paid for my hobby!)
    How’s about you...? You’re a drop out, (does that work?) what you into now?

  5. I thanked you very prettily for 'following' me which has almost exhausted my kind words. Yeah, I'm a dropout, because my head got fucked. So no it doesn't exactly work. My blog chronicles the efforts to get my head restored. It's a long process, so I'd skip all that and just concentrate on the nice bits of me. I'll revert to type now and point out that 'of' isn't a verb - it should read 'wouldn't HAVE put you that old!' Oh and thanks (I think). Hey Mr. Pop Journalist you need an editor!

  6. Thanks but if you were my editor – i think i’d be the one with head problems, or i would soon kill either you or me ... Lol
    It’s bad enough you pointing out my flaws without me actually consciously asking you to do it!
    Do you work...?

  7. Ok, baby! I'll stop with corrections if it means one of us is going to die. It's just possible the impulse will get the better of me, but I'll do my best! You are fun tho'. Moment of weakness! Ignore it! No, not working, in any sense! <3

  9. Hi, again. Used to me! How to crush a guy with one short sentence. You mean I hold no mystery for you anymore!

    No I'm not at home. I live in Cambridge. I have a room in the house of some family friends. I go to therapy four days a week where I sit in groups, and go to IT with a lovely guy who is reassembling the bits of my brain with loving and painstaking care. I am a work in progress! The story is scattered around in my horribly self-centred blog. If you read it you may come to regret it. <3
