I am a closet Hanson fan

They were on Howard Stern a few weeks ago and still have incredible harmonies and they're all grown up and married.

Okay I have two comments:

1.This has to be the first Hanson thread on Prince.org

2.They're STILL around?!!

Mmbop.


Call me crazy,stupid, gay whatever ... I thought that song (the chorus really) was catchy, though I would never, ever purchase it.

thanks 4 the link!

I guess I'm a Hanson fan too. I used to run Underneath. Now I have two albums to pick up on the 24th.

PricelessHo said:

Wow sounds great!!! I also heard them on Howard Stern and their harmonies were very good. I like the Great Divide song. But do you think they could ever get rid of the "mmmbop image" and be taken seriously as a band? Good luck to them, these are real musicians.

co-sign

waw2002 said:

not sure about that but a lot of people are anticipating their comeback from what it seems so hopefully it'll be a great welcoming.

P.S. I think Mmmpop is a great track still

at Taylor. He still looks like a female to me.. only this time, a crossdressing one.

Ahh... the memories of Hanson. My big sister being OBSESSED with them (posters, CD's, mags, everything) and wanting to marry Zac, being dragged to a concert of theirs, seeing the "MMMBop" video several times a day on MTV... in all honesty, people give them too much shit, I think. I haven't taken a listen to my sister's old copy of Middle Of Nowhere in ages, but last I remember, it was a catchy, well-written pop album, with some genuinely emotional cuts on it ("Weird", "Yearbook", etc.).

And didn't they get better and more mature over time?

i still wanna know what happened to johnny

Wow they look hot now. I couldn't understand the girls going goo goo over them and their girlie looks. But now they're men!

Wow!talk about how time flies. They were a good group considering how young they were. By the way what other albums did they do. Talking about young groups whatever happened to Kriss Kross?

"Penny and Me" is a kick ass tune!!

PricelessHo said:

Middle of Nowhere only made it to number 2?!? I remember that cd being HUGE. Oh and it's good to see that they are still having success with a number 1 independent album.
