The Big Reunion starts on ITV2 tonight , reuniting late 90's pop acts Five , B*Witched , Atomic Kitten , Liberty X , 911 and the Honeyz.
I thought I'd post up 5 of the greatest pop gems from some of the acts featured. The series iteself on ITV2 will focus on the halcyon days of eacha ct , culminating in a huge , nostaglia filled reunion gig in London
Lets take a look a 5 Big Reunion Pop Moments from that glorious era
1. Five -Keep on Movin (Number 1 , October 1999 )
Sean, Abs , Richie , J and Scott were touted as the Spice Boys upon their debut in 1997. This remains their finest moment and a boyband classic
2. B"Witched -C'est La Vie ( Number 1 , May 1998 )
Dressed in their trademark denim and faux Irish influence , Keavy , Edele , Sinead and Lyndsay had 4 consecutive Number 1's . But its this gem that is most fondly remembered for its Irish dancing and classic line " Fight like me Da as well "
3. Honeyx -Finally Found ( Top 5 , September 1998 )
Honeyz emerged on the scene with this gorgeous ballad. At first glance they seemd like a bad Eternal rip off. But this song remains gorgeous
4. 911 -Bodyshakin (Number 3 , April 1997 )
911 were probably the least aesthetically pleasing of all boybands. But Lee, Spike and Jimmy had a loyal fanbase and clocked up the odd Number 1 in their time. This being most memorbale
5. Atomic Kitten -Whole Again ( Number 1 , February 2001 )
Atomic Kitten were close to being dropped from their record label shortly before this was released. They'd had a few Top 10's , but nothing that set the world alight/ Kerry Katona had also just fallen pregnant and soon left the band. Replaced by Jenny Frost , Whole Again would spend 4 weeks at Number 1 , keeping U2 off and making them a hot pop commodity til their split in 2005
