Bardot Were Bonza

With Australian Idol starting this Sunday, it's as good a time as any to talk about Bardot




Bardot were the winners of Popstars 1 and were really quite sucessful as far as Popstars groups go. I would be interested to know if they are the only Popstars act in the entire world to get to a second album, because I think they might be. Bardot's second album was awesome. As were the girls themselves. In a way.


<- I really like this pic







Bardot Members In Order Of Aceness:


1. Sophie Monk - There's one word, and that word is Blonde
2. Belinda Chappel - Belinda rules, I hope she gets a solo deal too
3. Tiffany Wood - What a bitch! She never really came off too well during the series. She has now changed her name to 'Tiffani', so as people don't confuse her with, ahem, 'Tiffany', cos 'she's still big in the US.' Is she? And what, you will be too? Hmm..
4. Sally ..er.. Poleriousnous? Sorry, I can't spell it, or be fucked to look it up. And don't care either cos Sally was an annoying cow
5. Katie Underwood Urgh..she needs her whole own Top 5 List...



The Katie Underwood Top 5 (Ways She Was Crap)

1. While Ginger Spice and Nicola Roberts fly the flag for token redhead members in girl groups, Katie Underwood set the movement back several years. She was crap.
2. She was the worst member, with the worst hair, the worst voice, the worst clothes, the worst 'angle' and the worst thing on the entire show.
3. She left before the release of the second album. Hooray!!! She left to be in a production of 'Hair' which never went ahead. Sucked in Katie
4. That didn't stop her though, she went on to torture us with two spastic diso-lite singles with, cringe, Disco Montago. Crap.
5. THEN....she was in...Undercover Angels. Hosted by Ian Thorpe. And with Jackie O. And KATIE UNDERWOOD! One of the most crappiest shows in tv history

Crap!:


ANYWAY, the rest of the Bardot chicks were bonza as. Except Sally. The thing that is for sure then, was that they had some good tunes

Top 5 Bardot Songs

1. Dirty Water - A cover of the Made In London song. Bardot's is better and I really like it
2. These Days - Bit of spoken word in this! It's really pretty awesome
3. I Need Somebody - Katie left the group before this was released, and then went on to make two songs exactly like it. Can she get a brain or what?
4. Poison - The first single which of course went straight to number one. It's sort of not very good, but you have to like it if you were caught up in the hype at the time
5. Don't Call Me I'll Call You - Like a really crap Destiny's Child song. But still good


The greatest thing about Bardot is that they have PLENTY of hysterical lyrics. Here are the top 10:

Top 10 Most Hilarious/Worst/Stupidest Bardot Lyrics

The first one is my fave, when Katie has to sing it live in concert she just CRINGES, it's that bad

1. 'I thought you weren't my type, now I believe in love at second sight'
2. 'Your mamma's in my buisness'
3. 'How does it feel for you, being stalked by your very own mum?'
4. 'So what's it gonna be, gonna follow your mum?'
5. 'I'm gonna find a man that's good in bed baby'
6. 'He thinks he's hottie but he's nottie' - The only line on the whole album Tiffany wrote
7. 'Words travel faster than the speed of light' - No they don't actually. The speed of light is considerably higher than the speed of sound
8. 'Nothing else matters in the world today, no the car won't start and there's bills to pay, I've left my summons on the bedroom floor' Alrighty then
9. 'I'm feeling like a rebel today'
10. 'It's writen on the lines here upon my face, I guess I'm just not suited to obedience' I suppose that'd be why you auditioned for Popstars then

On the first Bardot album, they go through EVERY musical genre known to man in 40 minutes. There's every single sort of song you could want



- There's a light rock one - These Days
- There's an R&B one - Should've Never Let You Go
- There's a spirtual God one - Higher Than Heaven
- There's a pure pop one - Poison
- There's a disco one - Down
- There's a country and western one - What Have You Done?
- There's a sickening Westlife type ballad one - Missin' Your Love
- There's a motown one - Holding On
- There's a latin one - Got Me Where You Want Me

There truly is something for everyone. And at the same time there's absolutely nothing. The second album is better though

So, can the winner of Australian Idol compare to our premier reality pop act Bardot? I don't think they ever will, somehow
