OK, for the people who don't understand (though a lot of you do), the album is a spoof on boy bands. So if the songs aren't phenomenal musically...well, the point is not to make great music. If I was rating this CD on its impact on the music culture and its ability to win grammys, I'd give it one star. Cuz it isn't meant to do that. It isn't meant to be high-quality, classic music. It's supposed to be entertaining and funny, at which it succeedes. Anyone who at one point in time was a teenybopper (oh, and I was a big one) can understand the humor behind these jokes, unless you are kinda crazy obsessive. And people who didn't like them will enjoy having something that they've always thought put into a tangible form (though they'd probably enjoy the movie more, since the music itself is very similar to boy band music, the lyrics are the real difference). On the same note, the people who are grading this and saying, "What a great song! They have great voices!" you guys are also kind of missing the point. In fact, it is really interesting to see how pervasive boy bands are into our culture, in that something spoofing them ends up being popular with the TRL crowd as well. It must be a darn good spoof if it rings so true to life that the teenyboppers start cheering for the spoofers as well as the spoofees. So I guess my point is- guys, it's a spoof. A joke. A parody. to the people who think the quality of the music sucks, take it for what it is. For the people who think the music is great and the band is oh-my-god so hot, again take the CD for what it is. It is a funny, light-hearted take on a po-culture phenomenon. I always keep it in my car, because it can brighten my day in an instant by making me smile. And despite it's cheesiness, that's worth something, no?
