Return of the '90s

Okay, this must be the year for '90s bands to reunite:

1. I just learned that S Club 7 is reuniting...

They rose to international fame in 2000 and split in 2003, but in March it was announced that all original seven members will reunite for seven UK shows. Also, with a possibility of a two-album record deal. Oh and a little unknown fact, this group was created by a former Spice Girls manager.

2. Along with 98 Degrees.
Nick Lachey (lead singer) has had his solo career, but the boys are back together as they reunite for the Summer Mixtape Fest. They will also appear on "The Today Show" on Aug. 17.

3. Spice Girls will be doing the closing ceremony at the Olympics this year.

This isn't actually the first time the girls have reunited. In 2007 they got back together for a reunion tour.

4. Backstreet Boys has been back together for a year or so, but now fifth member Kevin Richardson is joining back in.

I guess technically this boy band never completely broke up. Brian went solo for a bit and Kevin left the group, but they were still making music with just four of the five boys. They also toured recently with the band below.

5. New Kids on the Block has returned in the past few years. (Late '80s to early '90s, but still...)



Now that the bands are coming back, the clothes are soon to follow. Who out there is ready for some acid wash jeans? Or maybe some rolled up jeans? Possibly even a baggy buttoned up shirt (tucked in), paired with high waisted jeans? I know you're scared of those high waist jeans, but prepare yourself because a lot of celebrities are already wearing them again. Get excited!!!

Break a move!

I've really been in an 80s/90s mood this week with the urge to wear leg warmers (if only I had some **sigh**) and listening to the soundtracks of Breakfast Club and Footloose.

The beginning sequence to Footloose is my absolute favorite. It shows only the shoes of people dancing...I always dance along. Now that I think about it, I don't think I've ever watched that movie with someone else. I guess that explains the dancing.

OH and I watched a few episodes of Saved by the Bell this week. I own the 4th/5th seasons. I know that's nothing to brag about, but oh well...
Zack Attack is another jam that my iPhone has graced me with.

...Anyway...

Enough flashback geek time. Just wanted to share my obsession this week because I know all of you will be extremely jealous.
If you aren't...just break out some New Kids, MC Hammer, Vanilla, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Beastie Boys, Cyndi Lauper, etc. (The list could go on and on) And break out the Running Man (my fav.) or the Roger Rabbit, The Love Shack or the Cabbage Patch. It will get you in an awesome mood!

You know you want to...
If you've forgotten what awesome moves you have, then here is a tutorial on The Running Man:


AND here is an even better video of Jackson Brundage (11 years old who plays little James Lucas Scott on One Tree Hill) behind the scenes doing a little break dance of his own. This kid is an awesome actor and has some dance skillz!


Now break a move!
