Sure, have a laugh at S-Express’ expense, but back in 1988 that song was the JAM!

who I am kidding, odds are you don't remember Bros at all, unless you happened to see them open for Debbie Gibson during her Electric Youth tour

Um...

It’d be awesome if Panda Bear opened for them on tour.

"odds are you don't remember Bros at all, unless you happened to see them open for Debbie Gibson during her Electric Youth tour."

Uh, yeah. I totally did. But I also used to read Smash Hits (on import from the UK) at the time, and they were on the cover almost every week. I remember the teenybopper mags (16, Bop) covering them often as well, which is odd because they were pretty much hyping music none of us had ever heard.

I think we drove to the Debbie Gibson concert in a hurricane and were late to the Bros portion. But, of course, Debbie was awesome.

@dyfl: It's true, this generation really needs its own Cristina.

I don’t understand why nobody’s done a trashysexy Paris Hilton-style cover of “When Will I Be Famous?” yet. It would also be kind of great if MTV would adopt it as the theme song for, oh I don’t know, every show it airs, since that’s what they all boil down to at this point anyway.

ahh Bros! I remember them fondly…being 7, watching Timmy Mallet..
When will I, will I be famous? I can’t answer that….
I always thought them a tad creepy.
