Dirty Pop


This has got to be the definition of 'pop' and all it's awesomeness. You can't listen to shit like One Direction, The Wanted and Beiber when you remember Justin, and N*Sync, and the Backstreet Boys. They owned the '90s, and they had the boyband made. Boybands that don't dance need to be damn good at other things - like McFly, they write and perform, or Take That, who sing and dance (a bit) and write, or Blue, they had Lee who was a very good singer. Having Harry Styles' face doesn't make you a good boy band. Being able to dance, sing and get a crowd going like Justin makes a good boyband. And I still believe that Justin wasn't the best in N*Sync, I say it's JC Chasez. That man can mooooove!

Needless to say, watching old clips of MTV award show performances makes me miss good pop. Pop today has lost its umph.

The best thing I ever saw, N*Sync performing Dirty Pop at the MTV awards 2001, with guest appearance at the end by Michael Jackson. However, this video doesn't exist in full on youtube anymore, which is a crying shame. It was the best thing ever. EVER. (Yes, better than all the times girls have made out on stage at MTV awards. Far better).
