男人组 Men Bands

严格来说，这两个男人组（used to be 男孩组，Boys Band）可以说是属于我们70生年代的。这一次，在不约而同的情况下都各自发了新专辑，但也不约而同地情况下由五人组变成四人组。真是巧合。也许是因为人也开始成熟起来了，歌曲也成熟起来了（也不是每一首都这样）。至少，我不会太抗拒。在“后巷男孩”（“Backstreet Boys”）的“Unbreakable” ，个人比较喜欢“Everything but mine”，“Inconsolable”，和“Something I already know”。其他的歌曲还是走回他们以往的歌路，所以也没有什么特别，好听是好听。而“西城男孩”（“Westlife”）的“Back home”更是没有什么惊喜，走的还是抒情路线。个人觉得还不错的有“Us against the world”，“Something right”，“When I'm with you”，“Have you ever”，和“Pictures in my head”。还有一个大家熟悉的男孩组“Take That”也有新的专辑，也是由五人组变成四人组。偶然的情况下听到他们的主打（忘了歌名），还不错，就等我找到他们的专辑再说吧。

These two used-to-be-boys-bands I believe really belong to our born-in-70s generation. Coincidentally, they released their new albums, and coincidentally, they also from 5-boy band transformed into 4-men band. Maybe because they are men now, the songs have become more mature compared to their old songs. Anyway, let's have a look at "Backstreet Boys"'s "Unbreakable". So most of the songs are nice, but I personally favour "Everything but mine", "Inconsolable" and "Something I already know". And, "Westlife"'s "Back Home". I found it no surprise, I mean same old same old style. Anyway, several songs still caught my attention, namely "Us against the world", "Something right", "When I'm with you", "Have you ever" and "Pictures in my head". Well, not too-bad albums if you don't set your anticipation too high.
