That the way it should always be, years ago when I wanted to be cool, I went for bands that had the right haircut and jackets.
It had to be cool always but what is cool. Its complete bullshit, cool is basically not revealing too much emotion, not revealing too much of yourself.
Lou Reed said it held him back creatively but he was good at being cool. I like music that is good and lifts my soul or comforts me when I am feeling shitty.

lol.
I'm imagining Boyzone going all out psychedelic freakout on Just My Imagination.
I'm sure it will happen.
This thread was a great read though. I think we need an updated list to whinge and whine about.

NEW MOTOWN COLLECTION ‘DUBLIN TO DETROIT’ TO BE RELEASED ON NOVEMBER 21st ON EAST WEST RECORDS
Boyzone continue their career renaissance following on from last year’s 250,000 selling anniversary collection ‘BZ20’ with the release of their brand new studio album, ‘Dublin To Detroit’ due on November 21st on East West Records.
‘Dublin To Detroit’ will be the Boyz first themed album in their 20 year career. It finds Boyzone’s sumptuous vocal harmonies soaring through a collection of freshly updated classics from Motown’s sensational songbook. Produced by their ‘BZ20’ collaborator Brian Rawling at Metrophonic, ‘Dublin To Detroit’ is packed with hits from start to finish, including eternal favourites such as The Supremes’ ‘You Can’t Hurry Love’; Jimmy Ruffin’s ‘What Becomes of theBroken Hearted’; Jackie Wilson’s ‘Higher and Higher’; and ‘Reach Out (I’ll Be There)’ by The Four Tops.
The collection sees the quartet revisit the roots of their success as Boyzone’s take on The Four Seasons’ hit ‘Working My Way Back To You’ was their debut single back in 1996 and ignited their subsequent career by hitting #3 in their homeland of Ireland. The Boyz performed a Motown Medley at the MTV Music Awards at Alexandra Palace in 1996, and then kept it as part of their set during their 'A Different Beat’ tour later that year. Their love of the genre was further demonstrated earlier this summer when Ronan Keating and Shane Lynch appeared as guests on the ITV special ‘The Nation’s Favourite Motown Songs’.
“We feel very lucky to have been given the chance to record such an amazing collection of songs for our new 'Dublin To Detroit' album. We could easily have done eleven more great tracks from that era but we hope there's something for everyone in the choices we made. We now just can't wait for the chance to perform them live for all our great Boyzone fans around the world.”

"Team Japspeed" - I think this sounds funny. Am I racist?
Boyzone doing dreary covers is now considered 'hip'? Or am I just missing the joke about squares? I'm unsure of myself, bewildered even.

I think it's because they have suits that are a size too small and retro facial hair + haircuts
I bet the album will be on vinyl too
