Title: The Fooo - Build a girl (bubble-gum pop by Herbie Chrichlow)
Post by: turnaround on August 16, 2013, 07:00:12 PM
The Fooo are a boyband from Sweden and behind them is mainly TEN (Icona Pop)

They released a EP in Sweden which is in the Top 10 of the iTunes charts there.

If you like bubble-gum pop this might be worth a listen.

Interesting... I like how they've done a low budget but very cool video for each track on the EP, it comes across as kind of fresh. Sadly the music for me is totally forgettable, with perhaps "The Link Up" standing out above the rest.

For those who like the odd bubble-gum pop song.

Already #1 on iTunes though it has not yet been released. "Fridays are forever" might become Herbies biggest hit since "Show me the meaning of being lonely"

Sounds very much like Icona Pop.

But quite catchy.

Debut album "Off The Grid", released April 2nd.

It's 11.95 EUR at CDon, so I guess there'll be like 8 tracks on it! -.-

6 songs. 2 Acoustic versions. Something about this.

They are more about the hype (girlies) than real pop music.

Acoustic versions? The Fooo?? I don't think so.

They already released 8 songs to iTunes... I wonder if the 5 songs from the EP will be included on the album?!
I think it'll be the same disaster than with the Ola albums: something like 9-10 songs of which 6 or 7 were already out long before the album release.  :-\

Well we'll see!  :)

You don't consider this "real" pop music??  ??? :o ???
One doesn't have to be a "girlie" to be caught up in the hype - I absolutely love their songs! And the fact that there's finally a boy band out there again with awesome well done choreos. I think boyband + choreographies just belong together. That's what I don't like about One Direction: they're all like "ooh we're different we don't dance BLAH BLAH". What I think is that they just CAN'T. lol

Plus obviously whoever's behind The Fooo is doing something right - they're doing great so far.
Look at the last attempts of Swedish boybands: Youngblood & co. were total flops!! I'd bet that 2 years from now The Fooo got their stuff out all over Europe.

Doesn't sound like a Herbie song to me - too much hip hop.
Nice pop chorus but the verse messes the song up!  :-\
