The Liberty X Story | From "Flopstars" to Popstars | Where are they now? 

The fact they have done more successful and last longer than hearsay as well, I miss these days when it's was before X factor :')

I’m really happy to hear about Michelle. All of them really, but between cancer & addiction…it’s so happy to hear people survive ordeals like those.

I'm a hoary old back-end-of-the-boomer-generation guy but I occasionally keep up with Pop from more recent decades and I had a three-fold interest in 'Popstars' in any case since Michelle Heaton is a fellow child of 19th July (born on my eighteenth!), Kelli Young comes from my home city of Derby (the suburb of Littleover) and Myleene Klass, out of the 'Popstars' Winners - who were eventually the Losers! - Hear'Say is a fellow fan of Norwich City Football Club, adoptive 'Derbyshire Canary' that I am. So, thanks for this video, Seph, which was very well put together and might be an inspiration for me, as I am a music-related Blogger/RU-vidr myself, although in a rather different vein. Of course, a particular highlight was seeing Michelle's birth date flash by momentarily and, being a contributor at the 'Fonts In Use' site, I think I recognised the font used in Kevin Simm's 'Brand New' as Eden/Morry, for which I have already made a font use contribution, so would I have your permission to go ahead and make a contribution of that? You ask for a favourite song. I suppose that, coming from the generation that I do, it would have to be that 'Fresh' collaboration with Kool & The Gang. In the mid-Eighties I was studying the Technology of Food at Nottinghamshire College of Agriculture and I'll always remember my room mate - also on the Food Tech course - being a huge Kool & The Gang fan and 'Fresh' was one of my Kool & The Gang faves.

The were very popular in the Netherlands, but I had no idea they released music after Being Nobody (That is stil. a great song!)

Great research and presentation, thanks

Whooooop! Can’t wait to watch this one later. I loved Liberty X. They were soooooo much better than the whack group that won Pop Stars. So whack I’ve forgotten the name of the band! 😛 😄

Liberty X did very well from being labelled the flopstars, when you think of some of big record labels they only want the artists for awhile to make their money then when sales drop let them go, sometimes it’s best to do a one album deal then form your own independent label.

Aaaaw, that was ace! Thanks Sep for another fun and informative mini music doc! 🙌🏾 Again, I learnt so much new stuff I didn’t know. What a journey for them all. They have real talent and kept fighting to get it out there no matter what. I wish them all the very best in life and thanks for the music guys! 🤗 . Cue 🎶 sexyyyyyyyyy, everything about you so sexyyyyyyy🎶 😄

How about Gabrielle? Mica Paris? Eternal? Michelle Gayle? The Pasadenas? Ooo, oo Estelle? So much UK 90’s talent! ☺

Wow...never heard of them...thanks for posting.

Thanks lots for this video about the band. Boy have they been through some tough times! But as they say "what doesn't break you, makes you stronger" I drove past a big advertisement saying they're playing here in town, so I'm going to go and see them. Have a great day :)

Pic of Aberystwyth uni is the old building long since just admin and only partially used due to its extreme age and poor condish. The modern uni is up a steep hill a mile outside the town itself

Always enjoying what u’re doing, keep up the good work..👍🏻 now what ‘bout the likes of Ms,Dynamite (Da one who kicked down doors & barriers for the UK Female rapper scene #Legend) Estelle, Shystie , these are true female rappers .. come through 🗣!

Nile Rodgers & Bernard Edwards are one of many Singers/Songwriters from the US who thank The Brits for keeping their music alive. Everybody Dance was also covered by Kimberley Walsh of Girls Aloud and Steps. Kenny Gamble/Leon Huff of the Philadelphia Soul Sound.

just a little bit single was amazing i wish all their songs ha the same vibe.

Omg yay so excited to hear this story!! Love Liberty X 😍

Can you do Shara Nelson? Who sang with Massive Attack please?

I love liberty x I grew up to their music. They are more talented then hear say and their songs were so good. My favourite songs are just a little, got to have your love and holding on for you❤ Please do Gareth gates

Funny enough, Liberty X wipeout Hear’say out of existent. Because they disappear after a year winning, the show and never hear or see again. While the 5 consistent didn’t get a spot in the group, performing their own group and became successful. Is remember and recognisable, then the winning group that won the show.

These guys are great Live I worked with them when they were just on a tour of Uk …we filmed a live gig at Cardiff Arena ….the tour was great and it lost a little momentum on the court battle over the name …I’m glad they are still trying to break big they sold out many arena s and the band topped the chart also they got millions of plays on MTV …… The band had to stop for a month or two while they sorted the band name out which was a shame as it slowed down the momentum but the kids still Loved the Dance etc … I’m in the video and thoughts are that they could make a return to the charts with a little help …… Liberty X come back soon…………I’m ready to tour…and so is the second in charge For support ?

I love your channel so much xoxo

Love the exposure of 🇬🇧 urban artists 💝

I used to think Kelli Young was sooooo cool when I was a child.

the late la toya jackson? she hasnt died

Okay so on you go, yeah damn!!!

It's funny that I felt like I had to side with Liberty X as a two fingers up to hearsay and pop music, I remember Kiss FM played Liberty X hard. Looking back though, they was an odd looking band who had good producers...and that was it. In the end, they was just the same as Hearsay with a different angle.....

2021 hmmm wasn't we on Lockdown then?

What was with the 2nd pronunciation of Anastacia's name? Lolol

I have absolutely no idea why they did not win originally. They are by far the five best and the coolest - I originally thought it was a conspiracy!

Eureka Johnson!😂😂😂😂😂

nice hair haha

They actually did well and can be proud, considering how racially problematic the uk music industry is
