shadowhiveSo yesterday I mentioned I knew what today’s song Saturday would be so here it is, Blue - All Rise,
So unlike the other people so far, Blue is a boyband and I don’t think they’re too well known outside of Europe. All Rise was their first song and it was also the first one of theirs I heard. I remember that it was through SM:TV (mentioned during the recent Pokemon post) that I first saw them. They were in a lot of ways, the first band I was super into. They were also easy on the eyes and, as I was entering my teens at the time they were apart of how I realised I was Not Straight. (Along with James from Pokemon and a new guy at school.)
They were also the first guys I wrote about and I focussed on the two guys I thought were hottest, Duncan and Lee. The former, as it turns out, is also gay (oh how I squeed when I found that out and also, Unf Attitude for doing those naked shoots with him).
I saw them a few times on tour, got their books, their dvds, their singles.... so yeah, I was hooked. I even went to a gig they did when they bought out a new book (which I’ve not read yet), which turned out to be one of the last gigs I went to. The guys also represented up us at Eurovision a few years back and they did well, by our standards anyway.
Onto the video, it’s not too special really, with them performing in a darkened space. Since the song itself is full of legal terms they probably could’ve done something in a courthouse or something but.... nope. They look so young though, since it was their first song. But still it’s a solid song, even now.
Also I wanted an excuse to post this picture
I found this on tumblr the other day and I have so many questions. I still have no answers,
***
Mail has come today, including the Doctor Who season 8 boxset (yay!) and comics (The High Republic 1-3 and Klaus 5-6). I’ll likely read Klaus’ comic soon and High Republic after I’ve finished light of the jedi.
Now I’m gonna nom, snuggle and maybe watch Who later.

Sadly the photo isn't loading for me :(

Aww boo! It should be working now

And actually, you've just had me checking out Duncan's insta for nearly half an hour. What a pretty page, though it was horrible to see the negative comments when he posted photos of him and his partner. Some people need to grow up.

Oh niceM I never knew he had one so I just looked too, an£ I guess that explains the pic! But oh no, people are such asses
