the day they split up

[Rotae]

I didn't want to sound rude, but you can't rush people into moving on. Five are still my favourite band, because I don't think that there has been a band that matched my particular taste so much. I really hate some of the music that is being produced today, it sounds the same.
Why can't I say Five basically died? They did! They didn't die as individuals, (I certainly hope not!) Ritchie, Sean and Abs are testiments to that, having released new material, but they died as a group.
die 2. to cease to exist.
I think that about sums it up don't you?
And just because the world is changing and the music scene is changing doesn't mean that you should change your opinion in music to suit the needs of others! What kind of a world would that be where everyone thought the same thing, liked the same things and did the same things everyday? It's like when people say now that they didn't like say... the Spice Girls, or Hanson when they were around, and they actually were their biggest fans! Why should we be ashamed of the bands that we have liked in the past just because they're not 'cool' now? Why can't we still listen to the music we like? After all Five will live forever in our CD players! lol.
Anyways, sorry again, but I just get really hyped up and defensive when people try and tell me what to do like that (it's the activist in me).
I totally agree with fin5iver, thanks dude, you rock! And thanks for backing me up .

Peace,
Rotae

i'm not a fivefan anymore, because i realised i can't be ''fan'' of a group that doesn't excist anymore... that's my opinion! and not because they arent ''cool'' anymore.

[RockinMiranda]

jow elise! you here

but anywayz... i'm not fan either.. well not anymore. but i'm still really interested in everything they do!!!
And don't think 5ive died!!! they're still around! i heard them on the radio just this morning! ;D
and i think you can't tell people to stop love 5ive (or stop being a fan) but i agree ít's a while ago...

[Rotae]

Okay, three things:
1. How can you not know that 'dead' and 'doesn't exist anymore' means the same thing? I meant dead in the sense that they won't write anything else together. They won't release any new songs. They ceased to exist as a group. Period. Their songs will keep on playing, yes, but they still aren't together.
2. I never said that you didn't like them because of trends, I meant people in general. No offence was directed at you. Sorry for the misconception.
3. You can still be a fan of a group that doesn't exist anymore. It's called listening to CD's and appreciating their music.
I don't care whether you like Five or not anymore, you're right, that's your opinion. What I do have a problem with is you telling everyone else to get over them when obviously some people (myself included) haven't.

Peace,
Rotae

[Liesje]

i dont deny i was a fan, but i'm not a fan anymore...
i'm into a realy different music style now, but i like ritchie's music too

[Liesje]

doesnt excist and dead are 2 different things
and i understand that some people listen every day to their music, but i can't!

[Rotae]

Like I said: I don't care whether you like Five or not anymore, you're right, that's your opinion. What I do have a problem with is you telling everyone else to get over them when obviously some people (myself included) haven't.

Cease to exist and died are the same thing. I looked it up in the Macquarie Dictionary, page 510. I didn't mean dead as in, stop breathing dead. I meant died as in a group.

And you've got good taste because you did like them and you like Ritchie's music

Peace,
Rotae

[Liesje]

i think doesnt excist and dead are 2 different things, i know you mean died as a group. but i see it not as the same thing..

and i know, my taste of music style is great...
sorry, kiddin''

[Rotae]

You're right. Doesn't exist and dead are two different things. But DIED and CEASE to exist are the same thing. Look, I'll write the dictionary for you:

die 1. to cease to live; undergo the complete and permanent cessation of all vital functions. 2. to cease to exist: the secret died with him.[/i]

Let's shake (lol) hands and make up.

Peace,
Rotae

[fin5iver]

Don't take it so literally, wishes or dreams for example can die too. Great that we all have such great taste in music though

edit: *lol* Rotae managed to explain it just before me ;D

[RockinMiranda]

finaly the peace is back **JK**

[Liesje]

ok, good.

we mean both the same thing but we use other words to say it, right?

[Rotae]

Okay well, technically it's not the same thing which is what you've been trying to point out. Dead and doesn't exist are different things, but cease to exist and died are the same thing. But it doesn't matter this isn't an English lesson, and we all have really good taste in music because we've all liked Five at some stage and we all like Ritchie. Keep the peace!!! LOL!!

Peace,
Rotae

P.S. Thanks again fin5iver!
