As much as I love them (they have three songs in my 'top 100 of the 90s'), Honeyz seem so out of place in this show, the other acts were all far bigger. I can't see them getting much screen time

Really excited to see Atomic Kitten back together, in my top 15 artists/groups of all time.

There is nothing better than finding out who hated who in a pop group! BRING IT ON!

I adored B*Witched and Liberty X. I also loved Five and Atomic Kitten, not so fussed on the other 2.

Out of all of these groups, I can only think of a few great songs. 'Just A Little' is truly life-enhancing - still sounds fresh to this day.
Atomic Kitten and Liberty X are clearly the only ones where I can even be bothered to remember more than a couple of songs, and I don't think I've even heard a Honeyz track before (though I have heard of them ovc). |

Finally Found, End Of The Line, Won't Take It Lying Down, Love Of A Lifetime = 4 reasons why Honeyz were amazing.
I'd echo Joseph's earlier Atomic Kitten sentiment except I'm disappointed that it's Kerry and not Jenny, I started liking them the moment Kerry left! |

Really looking forward to this, I'm one of the few who is most excited about the Honeyz being part of this show. Easily the most talented group involved.
I don't suppose anyone knows how to get tickets to this reunion gig they're doing? I wanna go! |

B*WITCHED THOUGH. Give me strength I saw them live in '98 I think and it was the best day of my life! 'Rollercoaster' and 'To You I Belong' are in my top 100 songs of all time!

LMAO. It's atrocious! The choreography at 2:52/53... GOOD LORD. It's so cheap and wooden, just like the song!] Some amazing songs in here! 'Song 4 Lovers' is easily the best from the entire list though, for me. One of my favourite songs of all time. <3 The Honeyz are so average, aren't they? I had no idea what their songs sounded like (bar 'Finally Found' and 'End of the Line') until I'd listened to them again. Same with 911, no idea what majority of their songs sounded like, but glad I relistened as I really like a couple of theirs! 5ive, Atomic Kitten (they have better albums) and B*Witched, slay all the others for me though. For those who haven't seen the video to 'X'... watch it here! It makes the 'Kiss the Stars' video look like 'Thriller'. LOL. |

05.5 'Whole Again' [So bleh and overrated. Can't believe it's their biggest hit! It goes nowhere ): ] Jonjo pls, it does go somewhere - Kerry's divine spoken middle 8. Speaking of which, please treat your ears to this: P.S. It pains me that you gave 'Won't Take It Lying Down' by the Honeyz a relatively low score. HONEY MY SUSPICION IS THE ONLY THING GONNA BE GETTING AROUSED. |

QUOTE The Big Reunion in focus: Liberty X are back! Ten years after they ruled pop, for one night only, six chart-topping groups will be reunited in itv2′s The Big Reunion. The Big Reunion will follow their every step, as their worlds are turned upside down after years away from the spotlight. During the series, viewers will see the groups reunited for the first time since they split. For some it’s the chance to relive their dream, for others it may open old wounds as they prepare to face demons they thought they had buried forever. Each day until the series starts on 31st January, we’ll remind you why we love each of the groups taking part and first up, it’s Liberty X. The road to success began bumpily for BRIT Award winners Liberty X. Having failed to land a place in Hear’Say, the band were often referred to as ‘Flopstars’. Signed to Richard Branson Virgin label, it was the release of hit single ‘Just A Little’ which won them a BRIT and brought critical acclaim. Mum of two, Kelli says: “We’d worked so hard to get to that point, and come from losing the Popstars programme and being called Flopstars and rejects. When we finally won that BRIT it really felt like we’d arrived and deserved to be there.” Michelle says: “I loved being a pop star, some people take it for granted and I really didn’t. I really enjoyed every minute of it. I enjoyed going to parties, I was young.” Tony adds: “Every very pop band needs somebody who’ll go out and get column inches. Michelle did everything that every self-respecting popstar should do and I think we benefited hugely from the attention that she got. “ Whilst she was relishing her popstar lifestyle, unbeknown to fans Michelle was battling weight issues and on a night out her heart stopped beating and she was rushed to hospital. Michelle reveals: “I was in this vicious circle of taking more diet pills, trying to lose weight but nothing was losing weight because I was so immune to the diet pills they wasn’t doing their job any more. I was just taking them because I was addicted them. I didn’t look healthy.” With Michelle battling her demons, Kevin and Tony also confess that they had turned to alcohol to help them deal with the pressures of fame. Tony says: “Myself and Kevin tended to booze an awful a lot. You have this high from performing and your choice is to try and allow yourself to crash straight away to suspend that high.” Kevin adds: “I’m not ashamed to say that there were times at 7am in the morning I’d be on triple vodka red bulls. The time all went into one so it didn’t really matter when I drank. I’m pretty laid back so when I’m tired it’s hard for me to hide it. So I just need a bit of something to take the edge off and get me ready to perform and do all these silly things you do on Saturday morning TV.” Five years after being signed, the band decided to call it day. They were no longer signed to Virgin and instead were with a smaller independent record label. With their budgets slashed and unhappy with the change of direction their music was heading in, the band mates described their last performance as an ‘unremarkable’ gig. Michelle says: “There was no massive big break up, we didn’t announce it to the world in a dramatic form. There was no press conference or children crying through helplines. It was quite simply we just weren’t there anymore.“ Film maker, Tony adds: “It was a bit of an anti climax and I remember thinking that is not the way to go out. “ As the band prepare to reunite for The Big Reunion, they reveal their excitement and trepidation about being thrust back into the limelight. Married to cricketer Kevin Pietersen, mum of one, Jessica Taylor says: “I don’t do anything in the spotlight and I haven’t done for a really long time, It took me a lot of time to decide whether or not to do it. I’m in a very safe place with my life, I’m in a happy little bubble and to step outside of that is really scary. I thought I owed it to the guys to make sure I was sure and I am but I’m petrified.” Whilst an excited Michelle admits: “I can’t wait for fun times to look forward to. I can’t wait to get back on stage.” http://celebritain.com/2013/01/22/the-big-...rty-x-are-back/ |

I'm with Rich I'm afraid. I really wasn't that much of a fan until Jenny came into the band. 'Whole Again' was a little more tolerable, but not by much. LOL at that version, her spoken verses actually suit the song though! ;o Oh and that Honeyz song is just as average as they are as a band. Sorry

By the way, there was an unreleased Honeyz single called 'Talk To The Hand'! It was scheduled for release in late 2001 (as a follow up to 'I Don't Know'), but it was ultimately cancelled. + as I'm on a video posting frenzy... Michelle Heaton's career highlight, post Liberty X. *.* |

She actually sounds rather decent here. It's LQ, but people talk as if she's completely incapable.
