Their music was painfully happy.
Oooh. I didn't know they was Scandinavian :]
I used to absoloutly love them. I always used to play their cassette in the car when I was little.
Yeah - of course, there must be many Scandinavian bands who just happen to have folicularly men in them. Who cares, really ? I just remember them for their nationality, a chromedome and irritating music.

I love Aqua xD They are a ton of fun in the sun. But really I prefer their first cd.
It's like the best music ever for coloring. I can pop it in the computer and turn my speakers way up and color for hours. I have to take tracks out, like Good Morning Sunshine (I hate that song xD) That and Be a Man and Turn Back Time.
Everything else is awesome xD I think I like My Oh My, Dr. Jones, and Candyman the best. I remember being really little and skating at Skate Station listening to that songGood times^_^
I didn't like Aquarius nearly as much-- I had a thing for Cartoon Heroes and Freaky Friday, but they didn't age as well as the songs on Aquarium.
Did Aquarium really just come out in 1997? It seems like I remember it from so long before that:O
When I was about ten, (I think) somebody paid me to sing one of their awful songs. I think it was the one about Barbie. So I took the cash and did it. Later they denied ever giving me the money and pretended to everyone that I wanted to do it of my own accord. So since then I've passionately despised Aqua! People still make jokes about me being an Aqua fan.
*sigh* I'm from Denmark and I think it's really sad that Aqua is probably the best known Danish band outside Denmark... ever!
What is even more sad is the fact that I actually own their Aquarium CD... I think every Dane was part of the Aqua-craze back in the days.
Lene, the female lead-singer, actually made a solo CD that flopped and Søren, on of the DJs (the one with the spiky blonde hair), released a spoken-word CD last year - I think - that did quite OK...
Oh, so she did make a CD? Lene, bleh. I can't stand her singing voice! It's so obvious that it's nothing but a gimmick. Her speaking voice sounds totally different. Best known band? I don't agree with that statement. The Savage Rose did actually achieve huge success back in the 60's and 70's.

Oh, I hope you're right because I totally dig The Savage Rose. They're one of the greatest bands ever to come out of Denmark... Thomas Koppel (The writer/producer) unfortunately died a couple of weeks ago, so the band probably won't continue making new music. So sad.

Wait, Thomas Koppel is dead? NO MORE SAVAGE ROSE. Sorry for spamming.
Indeed, that was an excellent song.But Turn Back Time was a good song.
I thoght that this band was a German band because it was so annoying XD
I AM NOT WORTHLESS. I CAN BE USED AS A BAD EXAMPLE!
Vava, that was racist, and I dont think anyone is 'exdee' ing with you.
It is. Like I said, songs like 'Aquarius' and 'We Belong To The Sea' she uses her real voice (which isnt bad). And, it was a damn sucessful gimmick, if I do say so myself. Who doesnt immediatly recognise Aqua when they hear "I'm a Barbie Girl"? That squeaky voice worked. Sounds hard on the throat, though...
PH33R teh Rainbow.
Taste the Rainbow
Cartoon Heroes was good. Barbie Girl and Dr. Jones were okay if you hear them for the first time in ages, purely because you can go "Haha, I remember that song! I think I'll listen to it now." But certainly not something I'd keep on my computer or anything.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Anyone ever heard the Rammstein cover of barbie girl?
