I think I have that cassette single...got it at Goodwill.

Goodwill is great for crappy old cassettes that bring back memories. Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer, Nelson, New Kids on the Block...

 

[BrownEyedBoy]

Hey, I liked THAT song and their cover of ''How deep is your love".

 

[martha]

Um, who are they?

 

[zoney!]

they were THE English boy band in the Early 90s.

Robbie's trampoline to fame (I really like his stuff!!!)

 

[zoney!]

Bassy must have come across this picture in his search for shirtless young boys!

 

[martha]

What's the name of the band?

 

[zoney!]

Take That!

 

[martha]

Oh.

 

[celia]

lol, yeah they were the 'first' boy band - every girl loved them in the 90s hehe. There was rumours that they were gonna get back together and do a couple of gigs but I couldnt see Robbie doing that now.

 

[Mullen-Girl]

i bought that crap when it first came out.

 

[bammo2]

I used to love take that

I met them at my local park about 14 years ago. They were playing at the Trent FM roadshow, and it was back in the days when they were marketed at a gay audience. For some reason, that involved them wearing leggings and chainmail codpieces

I also saw them at Birmingham NEC on the 'Everything Changes' tour I was a goth in those days and everyone was giving me really strange looks. I suppose I didn't look like the typical fan with my black clothes and swirly black eyeliner and black lipstick

I guess I just thought they were funny and Robbie was kinda fit

 

[bammo2]

PS Basstrap - where's Jason Orange on that picture you posted?

poor guys been obliterated from history!!

 

[Hewson]

whatever happened to this ground breaking band?

My guess from the picture is they relocated to either San Francisco, Key West or Provincetown and opened up a leather shop.

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

They've morphed into Blue, or thereabouts.

 

[meegannie]

Gary Barlow and Mark Owen have also done solo albums, and I think Mark Owen won Celebrity Big Brother or something like a couple of years ago.

Don't ask me how I know these things.

 

[Laura M]

Mark Owen released a song last year - I liked it
He was also my favourite Take That band member.
I have nearly all of their albums on tape.

 

[bammo2]

I quite liked Mark Owen's last song too, Lara

Howard Donald is a DJ now

 

[FizzingWhizzbees]

I feel old.

 

[bammo2]

I feel old too, Fizz. I was 16 when I went to see them on the Everything Changes tour, in 1993
