Ain’t no party like an S Club party…
Be proud if you know where that’s from. If you’re a 90s child, then you definitely should. You might be wondering why I’m bringing up such a pop-tastic topic. WELL, this 90s kid found her S Club 7 cd in the back of her car this week. Yep, I’ve been jamming out to hits like this (skip to 1:08 if you want to bypass the acting):
It then occurred to me that the significance of S Club 7 has been deeply neglected. I mean, c’mon you either loved S Club 7 or you hated it. And if it’s the latter, you were probably an older sibling of a much cooler 90s kid.
This club, mainly known in the US for their pre-teen sitcom, was the epitome of awesome- yet horrible music. Rebecca Black, start taking notes. Kids that loved S Club were also huge *NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera fans. We grew up with our fathers reminding us that the lyrics in “As Long as you love me,” are horribly dangerous and not realistic. But, we still loved our dance-worthy music.
In fact, in high school we even managed to make “Never Had a Dream Come True” into an educational song about children’s labor laws going into effect. (If I could find those lyrics, I would most certainly post and you would most certainly be ah-mazed at our sweet ninth grade skills.)
All I’m saying is that although the Matrix has a good sound system, I would still love to be able to put the top down on my old Miata and take it for a spin with these sweet jams.
