How great are Busted?

LOL! you people are too fucking SERIOUS! they are a piss take, and what makes then all the more funny is people like you discussing it in all seriousness! It makes me laugh.

 

Its so cool

When spaceships fly out the pool

You know youd be a fool to be a bad guy!



Genuis. no other way to describe it, entertaining, nice sound, what more do you want from music?

 

Yea but these guys that are posting aren't kids which is the scary thing, don't blame the band members making a quick buck, blame the 'adults' who buy the shit

 

about as great as having my eyes gouged out whilst mcfly sing me a busted song

 

I like any music that has a good tune to it and makes me want to dance. I know how terrible this is, I realise that it embodies all the evils in the world and I am going to hell. I know that really you should only listen to highly meaningful songs written and performed entiely by the artist and never listen to music for musics sake but I find it really hard to be that anal.

And all the variations on the 'you don't like what I say because you don't understand it' argument are so pathetic it's untrue. yeah yeah we get it you know the names of classical music and are therefore so superior we should shut up and have no opinion of our own.

 

busted suck...sorry

 

what an excellent thread I thought I would revive it as the optimism of the original poster is amazing ! I never in all my life thought I wouyld hear the words busted and mcfly in thge same sentence as "busted and mcfly are great bands"
wow ! cool ! oh BTW I have my doubts as to whether they actually play trhose instruments or mime !

 

Wow this thread is old - anyhoo.

I think Busted were shite everything that was said derogatory about them is true.
This was because they were young and full of erm joy.
Sure they prob' did not sing live - play there instruments that well ?
Did Hanson ?
Both grew into fair dickum players singers ''pop artists'' .
lets not forget - none of them set out to alter music or re-invent the wheel.
When Busted broke up I said ''Thank the lord" - Sorry - when Busted broke up - all the lads did there own thing. I think one of them did reasonably well but the one all the ladies wanted to drop there knickers too - did really well.
He does his own thing - plays his instrument adequately - writes his own tunes.

Mcfly !!! well I'm sure the same story is true of them .

Not that they have broken up - not that we can tell wich one if any will become more than the some of the original bands parts -



I think Busted and Mcfly are great bands - if you consider the other 101 cookie cutter ''boy bands'' that have come and gone - over the last few 5 4 years.
Whatever we say in a negative way - Mcfly [for e.g] have outlived a lot of them and they are still together today. They must be doing something right.

 

It's the american accent thing that does it for me.. whhhhyyyyyy sing in an american accent if you are not american!!!??
Doesn't that put out a bad message to young people, making them not be themselves.. I swear, there are so many young british kids doing these fake american accents like they think it makes them look cool.

 

Yeah a lot do - I know what you mean BUT how true it is [or was] of these two bands ? I'm not sure. I think ''Fightstar'' most def' wish they were a hot american band - that is for sure. It sells - that is the fiscal imperitive - it sells.
I think a few of their songs have that twang - not all of them though [to be fair] .

What about a lot of american ''punk'' bands that sound like or wish they sounded like the sex pistols - it works both ways imho.

Is it good or bad ? upto you i guess.

 

do mcfly take themselves seriously? I think its great their name is taken from the Back to the future film because really George Mcfly has a wikkid haircut and he does turn out to be cool after all

 

I died a little inside when I read the title of this thread...

 

I am not a fan of busted
