[VoR]

COME ON AND COME ON AND COME ON AND FIST HER

Me, a homosexual:

NOOO NO NO, NO NO NO FIST HER

On the subject of flop girl bands .. How the hell did this group manage to get 3 albums off the back of this #49 UK "hit"?

 

[Diddy]

Sorry HANG ON HANG ON
Is Lauz her ACTUAL name and Laura is a nickname?

 

[Diddy]

Btw I think I bought that Kick Angel CD single!!

wtf

three albums? I’ve never even heard of them!

there’s a good club track in there somewhere if it had been given to a decent singer. The lack of star quality in that video is shocking. And don’t even get me started on the spoken word bits, my GOD

 

[funky]

perhaps this helps? It's from the NOW album booklet

all of those bands had albums already except for them

 

[funky]

Made in London were my choice EARLY 00s GIRL BAND WITH NO DISCERNABLE STAR QUALITY.

that wasn’t a bad song, it just probably would have been better if at least one of them could sing

 

[Madison]

I’m pretty sure I heard Flee Fly Flo (sans verses) in primary school in the 1990s. Possibly on the same day they did the Fast Food Song.

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Apparently FLEE FLY FLO has been some sort of MINOR TIKTOK MOMENT
IMAGINE if 20 years after release Fe-m@il RE-PEAK in the UK charts as a TikTok-fuelled streaming sensation

 

[VoR]

I have had this RIDICULOUS NON HIT stuck in my head ALL WEEK thanks to this thread

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

FLEE!! FLEE
FLEE FLY!! FLEE FLY
FLEE FLY FLO!! FLEE FLY FLO

VISTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The origin of the chant is a bit of a low-stakes mystery (my favourite kind)

A (fabulously nerdy) reply on Reddit here thinks it goes back to the 40s and was definitely established by the 60s




Nice to know that Fe-m@il are part of a musical legacy that goes back 80 years

So it wasn't an ALL NEW ORIGINAL TRACK after all!

 

[Pipo]

It sounds like something you would recite to summon a PAST RELATIVE

As they got a mention, if anyone wants to dance to Girls@Play, my 2001 club night is coming up. Possibly the only time anyone will be able to dance to them before we all die.

Other qweens like Alsou, Suspersister, Tymes 4 and Caprice also likely to get their one and only PPL royalty of the year... and Jonathan Robbie Williams' mate Wilkes

There will be actual hits played too.

When I do 2000 night I will play Flee Fly Flo to clear out the place at 3am.

Depending how it goes it might get re- run another year. Have a few other late 90s early 00s years to do

 

[Beverley]

Bring to Mancs plz. I'll help.

 

[Rita]

Did somebody say SUPERSISTER?

 

[aquaplex]

Did somebody say SUPERSISTER?

Well technically Coffee was 2000. 2001 gave us the Hun anthem Shopping

 

[Dark Carnival]

Norwegian if I recall or at least some of them were. EDIT: Wrong Fe-mail.

This lot did the rounds on Smash Hits etc didn't they.

I only know this because I used to read Smash Hits the magazine. With no way of hearing this on a radio or TV back in the day when I was in Lebanon. I can’t believe I finally got to listen to this song some 20 years later!!

anyway, FLUSH

Finally Rita tells us the girlband she was in

 

[Kratz]

It’s never not the time for Supersister!

 

[Devil]

he looks like a WALKING DOUCHEBAG
2019 mainstream fashion was awful, just going on about wearing what looks like whatever you picked out first from your closet while blindfolded

Firstly, Devil can’t work technology so I can’t get rid of Pipos quote above and I don’t know where it has come from either.

Anyhoo, same DC except it was TOTP mag for me. First time I heard it was when I got Now 46 and was appalled at how shit it was given how much it had been promoted in that magazine.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I seem to recall this was a total skip on maybe Now 47.
