Bees-knees? Boy bands, please!

I think that the boy band era of the late 90's was simply the bees knees. Especially from a musician's viewpoint. Yea, i suppose they played no instruments. So i guess that means they wrote none of their own music. Nor did they write those genius lyrics... but are we to believe lyrics of this caliber were written by human minds?... Doubt it. Never before has such an original topic like teen love been tackled with such depth. And yes, i will admit that the bad boyz of n'sync and the bsb were simply thrown together by some tool, but cmon, that doesnt make these bands false, soulless fakes. These bad boyz have clearly lived exciting, dangerous lives, and yet have somehow lived to sing about it. Best eva, yo!
