Aqua
 

Who else loved them!? You know "I'm a barbie girl, in a barbie world" I just listened to them today and it brought back SO MANY MEMORIES!!! My ultimate favourite songs are Dr. Jones and Happy boys and girls!! Come on some people here must have loved them!

they were great ! happy boys and girls was definetely my favourite !

Their music were so catchy... as a kid i was a fan :P

Lol, aww I forgot what a fun album that was. Whatever happened to them?

Actually, I have their album. I'm not sure why. I used to like them. Not sure why, once again. Maybe it was because the female singer name was slighty like mine... Hers is Lena. Mine is Leena... Whatever. I was young. LOL.

I remember them! I loved "Barbie Girl". :)

:innocent I'm a barbie girl, In the barbie world, life in plastic its fantastic, you can brush my hair, undress me everywhere imagination life is your creation:love

Come on Barbie let's go Party!

wow...I have the album.....
I have no idea why....there was one song on there that I liked....I might have to whip it out again to remember which one....

thinking about them gives me cavities.

i prefer lene's solo career.

I didn't like the second album, but the first is REALLY good. I really like Lollipop.

Their music is one of the things that I feel kinda guilty for still liking XD Their songs are so damn addictive x_X

I have all three albums. I was a fan I guess. DOes anyone remember that their PVs were texted in japanese?

they had 3 albums???

At least. The albums I have are: Aquarium, the remix album and aquarius. I think there was some kind of "special x-mas compilation" too.

You brought back memories o_o That Barbie song was just nuts.. :laugh

I love Aqua! I like both of their albums. They still play Barbie Girl at our high school dances because I request it all the time! It is like the only good dance/techno song they will play and actually have. All they play is rap/hip-hop/r&b ***** and I just can't stand to listen to or dance to that stuff. Prom is coming up and I'll have to request it again, along with Everytime We Touch by Cascada since that song recently got really popular here in America and I am so happy that it did. I have loved that song for a while!

Anyways, TOY-BOX is alot like Aqua and are really good. My friend Jenny and I love them and I burn alot of their songs for her and she just can't get enough. Superman, The Sailor Song, Best Friend, Tarzan and Jane, Superstar...

LOL

I must admit that I still love Aqua and TOY-BOX!

aww I love Aqua too!! hehe the memories -- they were my favourite band when I was younger, along with the Spice Girls, Savage Garden and Ricky Martin... hahahaha

I know them, recently I have sang on karaoke Barbie girl lol
I used to love them a lot ^^

their first album is addictive~! ^^
but when they released the song CARTOON HEROES album i dun liked it...
^^

and thinking of the tracklist and song names.. kekeke... it kidna sound cheap.. >__< lol
i love their first song specialy happy BOYS and GIRLS

I loved Turn Back Time.

I love both of their albums... so wonderful.. I wish they'd release another album

oops.. they disappeared for so long that i forgot about them.. :P

to bad they split eh? Their music were very very catchy.

It's Lene xD she released a solo CD some time ago

I liked them a lot too, their songs were really funny! My favourite was Dr. Jones \o/

I thought they were relatively amusing, but I understand why some people would find them annoying.

^aqua? annoying? i can't imagine why. :lech

I appreciate nearly all music, and this aswell.. I think such happy melodies can be so fun, and aqua is definitely one of the bests in that. I personally love Dr. Jones and Heat of the Night

haha, i lost my tape :tear... (yes a tape! :D i didn't know what a CD was bvack then! -cough1998-)

the girl's solo career kinda scares me >____>;

I love Dr. Jones as well!

OMG i just remembered. there's this really funny parody i found for barbie girl, only it was harry potter version. it's really funny!

http://www.mugglenet.com/songs/hchristmas.shtml look for it under barbie girl

http://www.mugglenet.com/songs/hogwartsgirl.shtml here is the link straight to the song parody

yeah.. Simple Plan also covered Barbie Girl (a realy cool rock remix xD)

Really? I must check this out. :D
I loved Aqua. I hated that they dissappeared.

I haven't heard anything about them in a long time! I should buy their CD. One of my favorite songs was Candyman.

Yay! Bouncy land!

I love silly music. :laugh

I loved them,my favorite was "My Oh My"

i have both their cds, i love them so much

They're pretty cool! I used to like 'em when i was a kid. Now, when i think back 'bout it. The songs is so hideous! Hahaha...

i love them, i just hate the barbie song

Heee I used to love Aqua they were so fun. My Oh My and If I could turn back time were my faves.

Yeah, I liked them too. They were pretty popular here. I have their Around the World music video.

i used to love them!! but i loved spice girls more~~i loved Doctor Jones, i never really liked Barbie Girl that much

I love Aqua! After seeing this thread, I re-listened to some of their songs...it brought back lots of good times and good memories. ^_^

Love em so muccchh..

Turn back time is my fave until now!!!

I just see them as a one hit wonder, unfortunately~.

SO weird that this thread pops up. I just found my old Aqua CDs today, and I was listening to them. Brings me way back.

They were strange, but talented in their own way. Their lyrics were SO theme-y, but their music and arrangement were always way cool. Fun beats, but stupid lyrics, really.

Good times. Loves it.

They weren't a one hit wonder, they had, I think, three successful albums and plenty of hit songs... they were pop in fact, but not one hit wonder.

they were a one hit wonder in the US. in Europe they had several more hit songs & few succesful albums more than just 'Barbie Girl'.

Wow, Aqua was interesting. I used to love them so much...(I gotta go listen to my old CDs now)

Oh, geez. When I was really little my older sister was in LOVE with Aqua. She played their songs all the time. I rather like them, too, even though I haven't heard them in a while. I still have most of Barbie Girl memorized. xD

Ah, that's the case. IC.

OMFG, there's a re-unite rumour. Apparantly there's a 25 date tour next Summer and a Greatest hit's featuring song's they worked on for the third album before the split, different arrangements to their older hit's and new as well as the old Video's.

Orly?

^ I heard that re-unite rumour in college today actually =S

I was like

'WHAAAT?!'

=D

Whoa, they had 3 albums - thought it was only the 1!

And OMG Weslicious is that Daphne and Celeste in your sig?!?

mi|kshake~

They released 2 as Aqua, and were working on a third before the split. They actually performed some of the new songs on their final tour in the early 2000's.

:D Oui, monsieur.

^
Yep, two original albums and a (good) remix album. I think they also had two editions of the remix album???

Yeah, almost the entire ensemble of songs on Aquarium were "hits", it's almost like a best album. Except calling you, boys and girls, in the heat of the night and goodmorning sunshine, most songs got PVs no?

Yep, I think it's confirmed too..

What is this? The year of comebacks and greatist hits? They only really had one hit tbh. :rolleyes

Good Morning Sunshine did get a PV of sorts. It was an edit of a few live performances.

Austin, they had 7 UK single's and 12 single's overall Worldwide, 11 Music Video's, and before Aqua they were signed to a different label under a different name. The fact they had most of the 3rd album done before their split make's for a very promising compilation and tour.

Japan got a 'Greatest Hit's' and Video DVD in 2000/2002

I was an Aqua fan XDDD
Will they really do a comeback? x_x

^ i heard mentions of a comeback a month or two ago at this aqua fansite they mention that Aqua held a press conference confirming that they are going to re-unite. From what i read,it looks like they're just going to be doing concerts, not releasing new albums

the reunite rumour has been around for years. it never realised.

Barbie Girl brings back memories. I was an Aqua fan, now I don't really listen to them unless I'm in the mood for it.

o rly? http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z.../zekaemote.gif

Yay, article.

It's fully confirmed and everything. They even had interviews about it.

http://politiken.dk/kultur/article406641.ece

According to that article, they're coming back because they wanna have fun, even though they said many times they would never come back. But they just "felt like it".

They explained that they had gotten tired of each other and all they needed was a break. In the mean time, Lene and Søren got married and the group started to spend more and more time together - so it came natural.

The group says that they do not want to release a full third album, but maybe a greatest hits with new tracks. They feel like they want to focus on being a tour band and return to the stage.

Man I wore that CD out when they debuted! :laugh I could not get enough of Aqua.

*Roses are red and*
Violets are blue
Honey is sweet, but not as sweet as you
Roses are red and
Violets are blue

I was a big fan when I was younger :laugh

Oh it's confirmed! it's great that they will put out new tracks. i would love to hear their new tracks.

& i am listening to "doctor jones" a lot lately :)

AQUA//
i love this group..
but i don't any info or profile about them because when they got popularity i's still young..

Haha, I loved them. I kind of miss this music. Empty, but still better than the manufactured aaaangst and un-dancable r&b that's all over the place now.

That was one of my fave songs of theirs! That and Doctor Jones lol!

mi|kshake~

I have the first album. When I was young of course I loved Barbie Girl and the songs after..... on the album I was fond of Good Morning Sunshine and Roses Are Red.

Now, my 2 fave songs are Good Guys and Turn Back Time from later albums (?) those are lovely.

*bumps*

I'm still sad they broke up :cry

AQUA - the biggest act out of Denmark ever. They have great instrumentation but their lyrics aren't the best.

^ True, but the music was catchy as hell.

^ I'll toast to that. *raises glass*

^^ :vdrunk

i have both of their cd's still :P

Well they reunited... :P

^ ZOMG!! Seriously?

Yea, to quote myself earlier in this thread... :P

They're currently gonna be the main name at a major concert touring Denmark, starting July 17th which will mark their come back.

(source: http://www.groenkoncert.dk/nyheder/a...oncert-08.html)

They are good, but I don't love them

That's not where i got my nick okay???! Just informing you.... :laugh

OMGOSH!!!
Im a very huge fan of that group since I was in grade 2 or 4.
They're so hugely popular before, but they suddenly disappeared.

Does anyone knows their latest work?

As far as I can remember, they released Cartoon Heroes which is their "last" release from 2000.

I love Bestfriend. I miss those time.

ahh i want someone b ring them back.. I really like their album aquarius

Is'nt their reunion just going to be for a tour and a greatest hits album?

I really like Lene's solo work though.

It's your Duty :D

After Cartoon Heroes they released 3 more singles: Around the World, Bumble Bees and We Belong To The Sea (I dunno if they were released worldwide, and the order is probably wrong also lol)
And I heard the reunion was just for a tour and Greatest Hits also.. Let's wait!
I used to like them a lot as well ^_^

I agree; I really like Lene's solo work. "Virgin Superstar" and "Play With Me" are fantastic. She had a really great sound.

Could someone upload their second album and some of Lene's solo stuff? I used to have their second album, but it got lost over the years =(
