Hanson.

Yes, I said it. Hanson. I am so proud to be Hanson fan, more now that ever before. Not only are they one of the most talented bands ever (fact based on music composition, vocals, and instruments played...not bias), they also do so much for others. They collaborate with Tom's Shoes and host walks around the world, which results in giving kids in Africa shoes on their feet and food in their bellies. In my experience, Hanson seems to be a band that my generation loves to hate. Yes, their first number one hit was "MMMBop". A bubble-gum pop song. (I still love that song!) It was taken two ways, the first....the crazed fan base that it dawned. Second, the people who couldn't get past their long hair, and pop sound. Flash forward thirteen years, 6 albums, 13 singles, each of them married, 7 kids! And you can't get passed a song they wrote when Zac (the youngest) was, what, eight or nine? He's 24 now. Move on. Listen to their new sound. To the music you've missed since 1997. You may be pleasantly surprised. I'm just sayin'. :) I love it when people ask me what type of music I listen to. I usually say everything from the Hanson to Kittie, The Beatles to Dope, Third Day to Ringside. How sad for you that you can't like a band because of one song. A song, that if you really think about it, is more awesome than anything you'll ever come up with. :)

That is all....

Wow, Kimie. You have no earthly idea how much I love you for posting this! It's true, though. They've grown and changed which has allowed them to stay popular. Boy bands don't change...and don't make it because of that. LOOOOOOOOOVEEEEEEEEEEEE your new layout and I may have to steal it!!!! :o)
