busted

[wasteoftaste]

i was watching mtv2 this morning and this band came on called 'busted', with three so-called punk boys who sing like backstreet boys with immature lyrics such as wakefield or something in that effect.... does anyone know who im talking about?

[atticus_4132]

yeah.i spent my last summer holidays in london.i saw records and posters from them in some recordshops.they just suck.damn they and their fans are so punk.
i heard that they shows are amazing.playing in front of 1000000000 kids who are 8-14 years old should be really amazing.

[wasteoftaste]

haha, yeah their like omg soooo punk rawk! its nice that labels are now feeding off of the whole pop punk trend thats taking over right now.

[atticus_4132]

but listen the best thing about them is the band is 2 people who play guitar and one who plays bass......the drummer doesnt count or isnt an official member of that crap band..at least thats luck for him so he can lie to people and say "dude i dont play in a shitty band like that look at me im more a boybandpunk like me, at least im 1% more punk than them"

ha ha. they suck and they should be killed.

[wasteoftaste]

haha amen to that!

[KarolaBloch]

omg, my friend bought that album the other day.. he didn't know what it was, he thought the cover looked good. omg they stink.

[atticus_4132]

haha
what a waste of money

[The Bled 13]

Shit like this makes my stomach hurt.. No lie.

It disgusts me. What a terrible band.

[richter915]

first off...who cares they're from britain.

secondly...they're blink 182 UK style. I know a lot of people on this board love blink 182 so don't start bashing thse guys before you take a good look at yourself.

[gmc14]

Hardly anyone knows about them in north america but they are really huge in britain (I heard about them through a friend from there). There stuff is very poppy, sure, but I find it entertaining. A couple of their songs I'm able to relate to really well (What I Go to School For) its totally from my life (well, my dreams), about having a relationship with a teacher.

[drowningintears]

try living in britain. theyre fucking everywhere and i cant get away from them. for some reason they have fucking huge sell-out tours. and now one of them is trying to be "emo". Another reason why i want to move far, far away from england.

theres loads of this kinda crap starting in england. so it'll probably be big in america once theyve got established fan bases of 11 year old girls who think theyre so "rock" because they listen to avril lavigne, busted and simple plan.

[The Bled 13]

They are nothing like Blink 182. Not even Avril Lavigne or Simple Plan.

They are just like fucking... Backstreet Boys with guitars or something.

I bet you could ask them who the Sex Pistols were and they would know. But if you asked them who Minor Threat was...they wouldn't know what the fuck to say.

I'm pretty sure Simple Plan at least knows who Minor Threat is.

That was the first good point i've seen you make in a while.

[KarolaBloch]

lol

[commatosa]

Okay, for one, that fucking song is stupid. For two, they're not even playing their goddamn guitars. Three, the lady that they "go to school for" is fat and old and ugly. Four, they're ***gots. Five, they don't have a drummer, their shit is manufactured exactly like N'SYNC. Six, anyone who sticks up for these guys please redirect yourselves to the edge of a cliff and jump off. This band is stupid and they are the reason why music is so stupid and shitty. First time I saw this video I didn't know whether to laugh or start a petition to ban these guys from America. All I have to say is poor brits.

K, there songs are pretty elementry (immature) but if just looking for something light and upbeat they do the trick

If they go around trying to say that they are punk or something, then sure, they deserve to get their asses kicked, btu I wouldn't know if they actually do that or not. I really couldn't care less about N'sync, if one of their songs comes on the radio or something I probly knwo the words and might even sing along... but if N*sync tried to call themselves punk... haha well, thatsa bit different story I guess, haha... I'd love to see that tho. Sceamo N'Sync! hahahhaha

They do call themselves punk.

[punkpixie]

Yeah poor us. Whenever anyone asks you over here "so what music do you like?" and you say "punk, rock etc" they immediatlely go "so you like Busted then?" It gets very annoying. I wish they would fuck off and die because you can't get away from them here.

I hate that.
Busted are the lamest.

[drowningintears]

You guys think busted are bad, just wait til McFly start releasing stuff in america.

[Shoes]

hahaha yeah with that fat blonde one who cant sing for shit,god mcfly and busted are lame

[morning_star]

can i just say that i feel ever so sorry for america at the moment! for the past couple of years (or mebbe even longer) we've had to put up with busted, so i no how it feels to have them constantly in your face. but i do feel that i should warn you, u may have been able to live thru that minor tourment but u have no idea wots next to come, so just be warned because music as u no it is about to change.

p.s thanx for taking them away from england for a bit, owe u one :lol2:

[Shoes]

give me girls aloud or justin timberlake over them any day of the week.now thats real good pop no pretentions no fake, just good old fashion pop music and thats how it should be.

[tRigGerFinGeR]

They CLAIM to be the Blink-182 of England, but no they are not. Anyone who slates Busted does NOT have to take a good look at their own music states, because Busted are a boyband pure and simple. I watched these guys on telly, one of them had to answer question about his fave band - he chose blink, he failed nearly all the quesitons. When Blink came on TRL in England they were asked if they had heard of Busted, they didn't have a fuking clue.

Some of my post has no relevence, but who cares, my point is hahaha, ah Busted.

McFly? Their music is just as bad, but I won't slate them I met their "drummer" (he can actually play, but still "drummer") at a New Found Gig and he was totally cool, he may make shitty music, but he had good music taste and was a cool guy.

[commatosa]

I'd say Busted is the Simple Plan of the UK. Don't worry, they'll die over here. The pop movement has come and gone. They're immediately cast away here cause they're sound is a thing of the past. Hopefully their campaign in America will make them realize that they suck and they'll break up. And you guys don't owe us one. We dragged you into a war that had no reason. We owed you one ;)

[punkpixie]

^^^^
Yeah, thanks a lot. Hopefully if Kerry gets elected no-one will be dragged into any more wars!

[The Bled 13]

No way, they aren't at all like Simple Plan.

They remind me more of Backstreet Boys with guitars.

Blink 182 must hate that comparison. I saw the video and I was laughing so hard, what a fucking joke.

[The Bled 13]

Busted is the type of band I would love to fucking throw shit at.

[punkpixie]

Me Too. Lets all throw shit at Busted.

Fuck Busted.

They're more like Backstreet Boys that hold guitars. If you watch their video they're not even playing their instruments. I bet they don't even know how to play one single power chord. They don't have a drummer, yet they consider themselves a punk band. Give me a break. At least if you're a manager and you're going to manufacture a band then give them a fake drummer just to convince people a little more.

but come on check out this beautiful showing of genius.
"i messed my pants when we flew over france air hostest whooooa"PUNK ROCK!!!!!!!

you can have them back anytime you want though

[burntheaction]

even though they suck, i do miss them. they were fun to laugh at.
but i guess we still have mcfly. and... westlife, who are supposedly (oh god) gonna make a 'swing' album, much like the one robbie williams did. that should provide some amusement. HMMMMM.

[Nose_over_tail]

i was watching mtv2 this morning and this band came on called 'busted', with three so-called punk boys who sing like backstreet boys with immature lyrics such as wakefield or something in that effect.... does anyone know who im talking about?

Hey i am from Britain where busted are orginally from and recently i went to america and saw busted on MTV and i will agree that they do look like three so called punk boys but now that they have been on the scene in britain for a couple of years they have 'evolved' and become way more punky. The way u get to see them is when they first came out and were im sorry to say quite crap but now their new songs out are not necessarly hard core punk but are good and fun. Give them a go cuz they are really nice guys!

[Shoes]

dude, they're tories is there anything else we need to say?

[OnLegendary21]

No way, they aren't at all like Simple Plan.

BBMak?

[Lueda Alia]

heard of them ages ago... and the song I heard by them was alright.

[gmc14]

crazy brits

[shrguy]

they claim they're "alternative"

wow, they are really shitty! just another screaming girls band

[sweethypocrisy]

i saw their video at 2 am on mtv2 the other night. and i thought it was hanson. seriously.

[shrguy]

i saw their video at 2 am on mtv2 the other night. and i thought it was hanson. seriously.
i saw it when i was gettin ready for...well...school! haha. let's just say it started off my day really badly. they're worse than hanson. hanson has some talent...these guys are all manufactured.

[Basketcase]

so i was watching Mtv2 late last nite at around 3 and the video for "what i go to school for" comes on. at first i thought it was a commercial or some shit, but then it turns out it's a real fucking video. i was laughing most of the time. the shitty ass lyrics, the synchronized jumps, etc. and where the fuck is the drummer?!?! i see the guitarists and bassist, but no drummer. are these guys like an even shittier version of Good Charlotte?!?! at least GC has some decent songs. these guys just plain fucking suck.

yeah that busted crap i now them cause their really big in britan [where i am] there total pop there is nothing punk about them!

[The Dove Song]

Hahaha. This band is funny. I have these music channels at my dad's house and they were on. And the song was "What I Go To School For." The song is lyrically retarded and they sound like the backstreet boys. Actually, more like LFO. Two poppy singers and than a bass singer. Get what I'm saying? But I think this song is so funny because between a friend and I..we have a crush on a school teacher, haha it's just funny that someone would actually write a song about it.

[Shoes]

hey the dove song wheres your sig lyrics from?

my little cousin, she's 13, loves these guys and she thinks they're bad ass punk! Oh my god!!!! They SUCK!!!! I dont understand how these morons get a deal when there are so many real bands out there struggling for someone to even listen to them. It's mind numbing.

[Shits_n_Giggles]

Busted Sucks ass!!!! their music video is just wrong!

[thrice_is_nice]

i saw that show one of the pussys was like ,"omg dude ur shirt is dirty it has a stain on it" and like all the band members were freakin out b cause the one guys shirt had a stain on it that is totally punk....they obviously have never been to warped Tour half the guys on it dun take showers for like weeks on end

[XYadMYda(heart)]

Busted are sooo massive over here. It's crazy. Though, I work with a girl who is obsessed with one of them and is always talking about how she likes TBS and TSL and I'm like whaaaaat? turns out the guy she likes from the band likes these bands!!!! Madness, wonder if he thought he was going in for an acutal emo band and then signed the contract and is like 'shit! it's poppy crap!' and cant get out of it.haha they're sooooo funny.

[brandnewtbs23]

i saw them on MTV and one of them was was wearing a thursday shit

i was shocked

[erinfxs]

HAHAAAA, I saw them live when I was 11.

I just neeed to add, did you know that The Jones Brothers covered BUSTEDDD!???
TWICEEE
I am so annoyed, I hated the jonas brothers before but they completely wrecked both songs and changed the lyrics to what i go to school for so its not about a teacher anymore [so they can stay looking damn pure ] lolll

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm gutted that I never got to go to one :-(

I've heard both Jonas Brother songs and they were so terrible!
They made them almost unbearable to listen too, I much prefer the originals. The lyric changes were awful too...
It charted well in the US though so they basically got more attention for covering a Busted song =/

Urhh I could rant about it all day, but I am choosing not to.

Without You is amazing. Charlie sings lead vocals all the way through!
Do you prefer Self Titled or A Present For Everyone?

We're not allowed to talk about a band that we happen to enjoy?
My sincere apologies.

I heard What I Go To School For on the Australian Top 40 music thing that they do here and because I was young, I loved the whole idea of the humourous lyrics and the three of them playing guitar. I basically grew up idolising them, so I still love and respect them.

Then I bought both their albums and loved every single track that they ever released. I was such a fanboy haha.
