Little Mix with that Christmas bop

 

I'm shaking!



A shame about Melody's absence but I'm excited nevertheless. They're working on new music but that might come after the UK tour.

 

I'm sorry but I have no idea who those humans are

 

The Pussycat Dolls??

 

We're they the ones P Diddy put together?

 

That’s Danity Kane

 

How do you not know the Pussycat Dolls? Lol that’s amazing to me. Maybe I’m just old.

 

steve is old too

 

I think they were just more popular in Europe?

 

They were huge when I was a teen

 

I’m an american and know like 4 of their hits just from the radio when I was kid

 

I remember them being like one direction big at the time here

 

Obviously I know the name and the Dontcha song, but I would never recognize them or know their names

 

They're not a band who had equal representation from all members at all so you're not alone on that. Nicole Scherzinger is the most famous and the one people recognize first, but I guess you would only know her if you watched the various music/dancing shows she's been apart over the last decade as her solo music career flopped.

 

Just seen that it's a UK tour that they're reuniting for. I guess they were bigger here lol

 

Pussycat dolls were pretty big here too. Not ubiquitous enough that ppl know like anyone aside from Nicole, but they had a big string of hits.

 

Yeah I know her name for sure, don't know what she looks like or sounds like though haha

 

I didn’t even realize that was them lmao but I guess I wasn’t looking hard enuff cause I do recognize Nicole

I honestly am surprised that people regard them as so big, I never really thought of them as that big but yknow I’m down for it girl power etc

 

Buttons and When I Grow Up were def hits but I don't know any of their faces besides Nicole's
but I think that's true of most girl groups, besides like Destiny's Child and Fifth Harmony not sure there's any I can name all of them and know what they look like

 

That single with Will.I.Am was nice though

 

The Best Overlooked Pop Songs of the 2010s: Staff List

The Best Overlooked Pop Albums of the 2010s

 

The album list is extremely bizarre in the number of albums they pick where the band's OTHER album is clearly the better album.... Anna of the North, Broods, Empress Of, MisterWives, MO, and Tove Sryrke all fit into that category easily for me

 

The song list seems random. Of all the Marina hidden gems to pick, they pick the actually overrated Primadonna? It's one of her staples, so "overlooked" wouldn't describe it correctly.

Glad they mentioned Betty Who on the album list, I've kind of checked out afterwards but her debut remains excellent. Kate Boy deserved more recognition as well.

I would have included MNEK and Natalia Kills in the list, as well as Britney Spears and Madonna's latest ones.

 

@Petit nain des Îles Betty Who's latest album was better than the second one, worth a run though. I think there are 2-4 clunkers on it still, but the great songs are GREAT. Legitimately one of the best songs of the last few years, very Carly Rae Emotion-y:
