Don't love me for fun, girl

I found myself singing along to Boyzone's "Picture of You" in the car this morning and it's brought on yet another a mini-existential crisis. See, I always hated that song, and not just because it was not-done to like boybands. I remember vaguely liking "When the Going gets tough" and that sad, slow thingie they had... what's it called... hang on... ah yes: "No Matter What". (Thank you wikipedia! Here, have a quote: "Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world, can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.” - Michael Scott / The Office US")
I think I mainly liked those songs because Stephen Gately had just come out, and well... I'm a sucker for popstars who are forced out of the closet kicking and screaming come out. Looking through the Wikipedia-list, I have to say that, to my horror and amazement I actually quite like "Love me For a Reason" as well. That's three Boyzone songs! Three!
I'm either turning into an old fart, finally realising my true musical potential (and god help us all in that case) or the autumn-fatigue-lack-of-sleep thing has finally got to me!

Tomorrow: "ThinkDay" at work! No matter where and when I temp, I always have to suffer through one of those... why, god, why!?

EDIT: Alright then, while we're on the topic of boybands, have another look at the "Do What U like" Take That Jello-video.
