Teen Stars Forever

Hanson which consitsts of brothers Isaac, Taylor and Zac Hanson was one of the most successful grounps in the 1997 with their number one hit MMBOP. I even agree I used to love Hanson when I was a teenager, and even saw them at several concerts,  and met them in Oklahoma City in 1999. Who could forget those long haired brothers who grew up in Tulsa Oklahoma, and first started singing at their church. They even had a full song list of church songs that I got on ebay. Their first album was not Middle of Nowhere like most people think it was, but it was really called Boomerang and then called another album called MMMBOP. Issac was born on November 17, 1980 Taylor March 14, 1983 and Zac October 22, 1985.  Then tweens and teens everywhere were swaying to the songs MMMBOP and fell in love with the brothers. Isaac, aged 16 at the time of their debut, played guitar; 13-year-old Taylor sang lead and played keyboards; drummer Zac was 11 years old. Later the holidays came and they released a Christmas album called Snowed In along with a video that talked about their life and showed music videos called Live from Tokeyo. I remember watching this video all the time. Around this time Hanson was all over the internet and they even had a fan club called MOE. Which meant the Middle of Everything. When you signed up you would get  a magazine with tons of information about the band and they would also sometimes right their articles and have their drawings. It was a pretty cool magazine. I still have all 12 of my issues. Will probably sale them on ebay one day.

They were all over the teen magazines such a Bop, Teen Beat, Tiger Beat, Superteen, Superstars, Big Bopper just to name a few. Did you know some of those teen magazines are still avaible today like Tiger Beat and Bop now with Zac Efron and Justin Bieber the huge stars of today. It seems like their is always a new star that hits it big every 3 to 4 years. In. The streak of album releases continued in 1998, when the brothers reissued their earlier independent recordings as Three Car Garage, and also released a concert album, Live from Albertane. One of my favorite Hanson songs was” I will come to you”. Soon bands just started popping up such as Nsync, The Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, 98 Degrees, and Christina Aguilera. Hanson’s third album released in 2000 called This Time Around which did not make it as big as their first album was some what of a dissapointment. I was not much into this album either back then. I stopped following the boys after This Time Around and really started following the Backstreet Boys whom I still am into to this day.

Now they have released up to 8 LP’s to this day called The Best of Hanson Live and Electri in 2005. Throughout the course of their 2005 tour, Hanson stopped at various colleges throughout the States to showcase and discuss Strong Enough to Break, a documentary about their time with Island Def Jam .The Walk LP came next. During the accompanying tour, the brothers began taking mile-long barefoot walks before every show, encouraging their fans to do the same. The experience was meant to imitate the walks taken by African schoolchildren each day, and every mile walked resulted in more charitable donations for Africa Their 8th album called Shout it out. It’s really cool to be born in the same state as Hanson. When they were super popular people would go to their house in Tulsa and take pictures of it. I never went and never would to this day. I’m very proud of what they are doing. Now all the guys are married and have children, a long time coming when they broke out in 1997. They are still around today working on another cd.  Even though I do not follow them anymore it was always a dream to meet them. I wish them all the sucess in the world.
