My Favorite Boyband

Yes, I admit that there is one boyband that I love. They first came out years ago and their career had a very long run. Every song they sang was popular. Some people complained that their voices were annoying, but I think that's what made them so popular. They were so famous, they had their own animated series and dated the members of a popular girl group. I first listened to them years ago and they will forever be one of my all-time favorite musical acts.




What? You don't like [b]The Chipmunks[/b]? :p

Did anyone here used to watch "Alvin and The Chipmunks" when they were younger?

I always wondered why they sang "Girls Just Want to Have Fun."

The newer ones were alright, but it's like they tried to add this little kid soap opera idea to it. I don't know if that's a good discription for it... But I could have done without some of the issues that show attempted to deal with.

I liked the old 60s chipmunks because it was so ridiculous. Alvin was simply insane, and the voices were hilarious. Dave would go nuts 5 times each episode. My only gripe was that they seemed to play the ones a lot. Mostly one about Christmas. Nickelodeon was always horrible about reruns though.

I obviously meant to mislead you all when I first started the topic, so let me be sorta serious this time...

I liked watching The Chipmunks when I was younger. "The Chipmunk Adventure" movie was good, but the rest of them (the werewolf one, the Frankenstein one, Batmunk) were kinda bad. I always liked the show and the fact that they sang a bunch of other peoples' songs in their high-pitched voices. I wondered who did their voices all my life (turns out it was two people who recorded their voices at normal speed, cut the tape speed in half, and then sped it back up to normal. Tempo stayed the same, but the voices were warped to a high pitch). I think Alvin and Simon always had the same voice actor as Dave, and Theodore had the Chipettes' voice actress.

It was fun to watch when I was younger. When I look back, the shows were "okay." It's been a while since I've seen the 1960s "The Alvin Show."
