Why do so many boybands have numbers or letters in their name?
 
By letters I obviously mean letters you say as letters, aha.

One Direction, JLS, Boys Eleven Men, T Four, Five, U2, Jackson Five, 98 Degrees...

because the people who coin the names are unoriginal and know that as long as they look good you could call them "septic penis" and still gormless teen girls will fall at their feet

:rolleyes:

Mainly to keep it all short and sweet.

Oops. I don't know any of their songs, I only know of them through bargain sections in supermarkets.

Denver 20-09-2017 01:28 PM

MB. 20-09-2017 01:30 PM

I'm sure it can work the other way too

Crimson Dynamo 20-09-2017 01:32 PM

"You cant touch this"
