You make the call!: Boy Bands
 
A man comes up to you an informs you that you must listen to one boy band for an hour each day for the rest of your life, or else he will blow up the planet. He looks like he's serious -- and more than capable of doing it. WHAT BOY BAND DO YOU CHOOSE? :eek:

Lorena 05-01-2008 11:53 AM

Thanks to global warming, the planet is doomed anyway.. I chose none.

MrBug708 05-01-2008 11:54 AM

I've sat through a backstreet boy concert before. Wasn't that bad actually

Do I lose my man card?

MikeVic 05-01-2008 11:54 AM

That's tough. I'd say it's between N'Sync and Backstreet Boys, but which one?

Which one sings that "Bye Bye" song? I think I'd choose them.

N'Sync. I also like their song "Pop" or whatever it's called... so I think I'd choose them too.

Kodos 05-01-2008 12:01 PM

Also, as part of the deal, they are performing live for you each day. They age just like us.

gottimd 05-01-2008 12:12 PM

Tay Zonday.

korme 05-01-2008 12:14 PM

I pick 98 Degrees, because I'd convince Nick Lachey not to perform and just watch Reds games with me all day

Cork 05-01-2008 12:14 PM

The planet would be doomed. No "boy band" music for me under any circumstances.

Ksyrup 05-01-2008 12:15 PM

Death Angel, circa 1986. All of the band members were between 12 and 17.

Kodos 05-01-2008 12:16 PM

Did they do choreographed dance numbers while they performed? If not, they don't count.

Why don't you jump into his bed then?

Kodos 05-01-2008 12:34 PM

Please see the choreographed dance qualification above.

There's no choreographed dance qualification, only that they will perform live each day.

Sorry. We reserve the right to amend the rules as needed to assure no loopholes are found.

As penalty, you must shoot your favorite musical artist in the head.

Ksyrup 05-01-2008 12:49 PM

I consider moshing to be a choreographed circular dance.

Death Angel is still my answer.

Kodos 05-01-2008 12:51 PM

You must now shoot the singer in the head. Sanjaya will be taking over for him.

Izulde 05-01-2008 12:59 PM

It's a touch choice between Backstreet Boys and 98 Degrees. 98 Degrees has better singles, but BSB has a much better body of work.

cartman 05-01-2008 01:02 PM

The Beatles had some choregraphed moves in Help! and Hard Day's Night, so they are still available.

If he "sings" like he did on You Really Got Me, I could probably live with that. The beauty is that metal isn't all about the vocals, as it is with so many other types of music. I could easily ignore him and still enjoy the music.

farging cheater. the spirit of this effeminate question is to make you look like a woman by picking a contemporary powderpuff ensemble.

Kodos 05-01-2008 01:07 PM

Listen to the man. He speaks reason. The whole point is that you have to choose the least objectionable group out of an assortment of bad choices.

Ksyrup 05-01-2008 01:17 PM

But the whole fun in responding is to find a way to make a choice that fits the technical rules but isn't really objectionable to you at all.

Abe Sargent 05-01-2008 01:20 PM

Boyz II Men

MJ4H 05-01-2008 01:20 PM

Does the Vienna Boys Choir count?

Anyone smell that? Is it a gas leak? No..no..wait...I think it's..yep...feigned ignorance!

sabotai 05-01-2008 01:31 PM

The Temptations. (They do fit all the criteria. 40-50 years ago, but they still fit the criteria. :) )

Suburban Rhythm 05-01-2008 01:37 PM

Does El Debarge qualify as a boy bad?

Passacaglia 05-01-2008 01:38 PM

How about The Monkees? They're more like a boy band, based on the way they were formed.

Ksyrup 05-01-2008 01:43 PM

Does the Jackson 5 count as a boy band, or are they disqualified because of Michael?

Ksyrup 05-01-2008 01:44 PM

I mean Janet.

thesloppy 05-01-2008 01:47 PM

Another Bad Creation. And I'd just make them sing the phrase "We played NintendooooooOOOOoo" over and over again.

rkmsuf 05-01-2008 01:48 PM

BBD on the hype tip.

Oh no. It's on my iPod. I confess. I just didn't know which band it was. I also have one Backstreet Boys song apparently.

rjolley 05-01-2008 02:05 PM

New Edition. Best of the newer (<25 years) boy bands.

The Beatles are a good choice, only because they have enough music that you wouldn't go crazy hearing the same songs over and over again for awhile.

cartman 05-01-2008 02:07 PM

N.W.A.

I was just watching the Iesha MV video again last night.

How'd you like to fancy yourself a serious musician, get yourself a gig as a background singer, then one day you show up at the studio and someone hands you a lyrics sheet reading:

...playgrooooOOuunnd....
...mooOOOOoonkey baaaars....
...NintendoooooOOOoooooo...
...CheerioooooOOOoos....

Groundhog 05-01-2008 06:11 PM

That's because you look like you're in a boy band. You'd be a popular man in prison.

Schmidty 05-01-2008 06:43 PM

Oh, and I'd choose NKONTB because I had my first orgasm looking at Jordan's giant hair on a poster in my sister's room.

Hairspray gets me hot.

Ksyrup 05-01-2008 10:24 PM

There are so many potential things wrong with that statement, I don't know where to begin.

Westlife, really quite liked them strangely enough :D

Ksyrup 05-02-2008 06:50 AM

Actually, Marc just reminded me to think globally, so I could very easily deal with McFly.

Kodos 05-02-2008 08:29 AM

I'm proud to say that I don't know who either of those two is. :)

Four Tops. The Temptations are tough to pass up, but the Four Tops probably fit the category a little better, as the actual group formed when they were in high school.

Kodos 02-11-2016 10:33 AM

I think I'd choose One Direction now. I blame the kids.
