"Viva La Radio" by Lolly, "Never Knew Love" by Nightcrawlers and "Be The First To Believe" by a1! The latter two were produced by Metro who where <EM>the</EM> hot producers back then, after doing up Cher's "Believe." <BR/><BR/>Anyway, I didn't really follow a1 after that, so it's nice to catch up here. And again, since this Ben Adams/a1 posting is turning into a weeklong lovefest, I'm convinced you probably took a tumble in the hay with these boys at some point, you groupie!D'luvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01920860522649391365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30794625.post-1159400357445042972006-09-27T19:39:00.000-04:002006-09-27T19:39:00.000-04:00Did they really look uncomfortable doing the dance...Did they really look uncomfortable doing the dance routine? Aww, poor boys--I'm all for the choreographed dance, but it has to be something you want to do, not are forced into. There are some really good ballads on The A-List ("She Doesn't See Me" is really, really great, as is "Tomorrow," and more). Make It Good really is excellent...so many good songs; I can't wait to write about it! :)Poster Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07797812846936450135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30794625.post-1159342245161707032006-09-27T03:30:00.000-04:002006-09-27T03:30:00.000-04:00I only retroactively got into A1 when their second...I only retroactively got into A1 when their second album came out and I had seen them support Steps in their massive Hyde Park concert and of course fell in love a little bit with all of them at one point or another...at the time i really liked their balls to the wall pop sound of the second album, even if they did look particularly uncomfortable performing No More's dance routine on CDUK. But there are some great ballads on that album too that showcase their writing talents and a knack for a gorgeous melody... i still think Make It Good is their best cd so will await your comments on that....Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07230065922155843285noreply@blogger.com
