Rediscovering Hanson

My younger sister found a VHS tape containing random clips of her undergraduate days, her 17th birthday party, the American Music Awards (1998...i think), the Rosie O' Donnel show, and some music videos. It even had a few commercials (including the Starburst ad with depressed cheerleaders). The last half of the tape was dedicated especially to Hanson. Boy, was she a huge fan back then. My other sister is still a fan and is still hoping that someday Taylor (Hanson, not Hicks...hehe) would meet her and instantly fall head-over-heels in love with her (even though Tay is married).

I probably didn't know it, but I was a Hanson fan--am a Hanson fan. How can I not be when my sisters would play Hanson's christmas record all year round? I used to share a room with my youngest sister---I had the upper bunk---and she had posters of the band on the walls and the ceiling so everytime I go to bed and each time I wake up, I see three blond kids smiling at me. And whenever I hear any of their songs on the radio, I start to sing along! They make really good music. The fact that they compose songs and produce their own records makes them even more interesting. So yeah, I'd buy their new record.
