Considering S Club 7 have been gone for three years and Steps for five years, what's the point in moaning about them anyway? They're long gone and I highly doubt they'll be back. They're almost as much a thing of the past as T-Rex and the Clash are. With that sort of 'manufactured' all singing-all dancing pop group we only really have Girls Aloud, the Sugababes and possibly McFly, and she isn't slagging them off.

It did seem a bit curious to me to go for those examples instead of picking up on more recent ones.... She'd might as well have said The Spice Girls as well really....

 

It's probably yet another publicity stunt. She has got a lot of attention like Charlotte Church and Amy Winehouse did for slagging off everything under the sun, and long defunct rubbish cheesy dancing miming pop acts are an easy target that won't really answer back as they have no reason to get themselves in the media any more.

Hmm, yeah, that's about the size of it really...

 

Cant really stand Amy Whinehouse or Charlotte Church either to be honest.... -_-

I didn't mind Amy and Charlotte really. As I said before, unlike Lily they at least they had half decent singing voices to go with their bitchy comments.

i think steps and sclub are the epitome of puppet pop, and have encouraged other cheap copy cat acts.

 

Like S Club Juniors? ;)

Lily Allen wasn't one of them was she ?? :huh:

yep!..... these disposable pop acts do nothing for music. :)

 

im not totally against 'party pop', there was easy listening pop even in the beloved 60's, id suggest that manfred manns later material, or all of hermans hermits have also done nothing for music and are as bland as steps etc. its the ratio though of 'party pop'.

 

Ok, lets get this clear. I love most types of music so its not as if i JUST love/loved manufactured pop. They sold millions upon millions of records in their time and so what if they only wrote a few songs? - they were solid great pop tracks.

 

Lets not start slagging off some of pops biggest selling acts just because one big gob is rabbiting on about them not being credible enough to her 'standard'.

Lily Allen's latest musings....

 

Lily Allen Delighted Shes A Success

 

Myspace queen Lily Allen is delighted she is becoming a success, because her love for drugs as a teenager ruined her education.

 

The 21-year-old readily admits she struggles to remember her teenage years because she was so intoxicated, but she insists she never fell on hard times thanks to her attractiveness.

 

She tells Attitude magazine, "Between the ages of 16 and 19 is such a blur; I couldn't do a day without smoking a eighth of weed - I was ****ed. "At the same time, I wasn't this drug addict sitting on street corners and I was pretty enough to get free drugs off boys. "I was chucked out of a lot of schools sometimes for not doing any work and for just being a chatterbox and a troublemaker."

'biggest selling'?.. i dont think they figured very highly at all, in fact they didnt even make the 'top selling' 50 artists of all time. they were contemporarily successful, but that means nothing when record sales are so low.

 

like i said, my rantings arnt personal to you :)

Steps sold over 16 million records...

you lot are now lead like sheep... instead of leading, thinking for yourselves, and having an original idea...

 

Would you prefer it if we just nodded and agreed with you and Lily?

 

I was never fussed about Steps. I enjoyed them for what they were, but I didn't find them very exciting. S Club on the other hand were far more interesting. I know they weren't everyone's cup of tea, and I never got round to buying any of their albums, but some of their singles were great songs, as well as great pop songs. People might not like that they were put together and promoted themselves and their music via a tv series, and the brains behind the outfit may never have appeared on screen, but it's a hell of a lot more original than slagging off pop acts that were mainly aimed at kids.

 

I really liked Lily when I first heard her music a few months ago, and I got her album sampler and loved it, but now she's showing herself to be arrogant and unoriginal in a really unpleasant way. Rachel Stevens is boring in interviews, but at least there is an honesty about her.

 

If Lily really did have guts she'd slag off someone who is currently successful, and on the same label as she is. Better still, slag off someone who is really fashionable to like, one of Jo Wiley's favourites. Everything else screams publicity stunt.

I'll give Amy Whinehouse her due, she slagged everyone off, :lol: she didn't pick on acts that aren't around anymore.

Now who on earth could you mean! :rolleyes:

 

I'm no fan of manufactured pop but Steps & SClub had their place as good clean pop. My 18 year old daughter loved them when she was growing up & remarked only the other day that there really is no one like them for the kids today. The PCD & even GA to some extent are hardly child friendly.

 

Back to Lily, slagging of others when your as manufactured as she is won't wash with the public for long.

Would you prefer it if we just nodded and agreed with you and Lily?

 

its not so much a case of agreeing with this as taking it on board as a pretty accurate statement wether or not you are/were a steps/sclub fan. as ever their 'fans' leap to their stars aid without seemingly understanding this point of veiw, which is, like it or not, accurate.

 

"Rachel Stevens is boring in interviews, but at least there is an honesty about her."

 

i dissagree, she comes over as thick, and is one of the worst fakes in music.
