I think that Sean is a really good composer. After all, look at that award he won when he was only 13!! Phil Collins composing award or something.
Peace, Rotae

I dunno about that... on the Five's Greatest Hits Abs is missing in one, and then J is missing in the other one isn't he? I can't remember it's been a long time.

I asked Scott and he said that they wanted a 4 man group but the guys had met up during the final selection, decided they would like to be together and presented themselves to the Herberts & Simon Cowell as a group. No one could decide who to get rid of so they kept them all.
Scott said the only things said in front of them were:
J is absolutely fantastic but he is so much older than the others. Perhaps it would not be good for the group dynamic. Or maybe it would be good to have one older to watch the others...
Sean is really young and maybe he can't handle this kind of pressure.
We really only need one romantic type singer and we have two. (Ritchie and Scott)
Two of the guys are basically rappers... do we need two? (J and Abs) They are really different though...
The little guy (Abs) can really move as well as having a unique singing voice.
Abs told me that J was one of the first to audition and all the auditioners just died when he did his song since it was so powerful and great. Besides, he looked like he could beat us all up! It was really good that he went one of the first because it made the rest of us try about 10 times harder!
and J said: I had to sing near the beginning and I thought, I better really go all out & take a chance so they won't forget me by the time they get through 3000 other guys! Besides, the rest of them looked like school boys and I really didn't fit in.
Ritchie said, I thought Abs was great. He was the only one of us who danced while he sang and he was really good. J did have some crazy rappers moves though with his arms flying all over the place... Also, Sean sang a song he wrote himself and played the piano too. We were really impressed.
Said Scott about Ritchie: There was this pretty-boy posh bloke in an expensive jumper just quietly sitting there and I thought, yeah a mousy little ballad singer. I'll kick his arse. Then he got up and blew us out with this rock song. I knew he was in.
Abs about Scott: Scott was this skinny pale geezer with a thick accent and he kept really quiet until after he sang. Then he started talking a streak and had loads of opinions about everyone. He made sure he sat near a bin (garbage can) cause he was really sick and his dad had to drag him to the audition.
Said Sean: by the time it was down to about 20 lads, we knew who the best were. There was this one guy I really got on with but I knew he wouldnt make it to the end. So the five of us kinda grouped together and hoped they would just take us all. I still can't believe we had the guts to do that.
Ritchie again: I was surprised how many bad singers there were. It made the people who did a good job really stand out. Then we had to break into groups and sing songs they picked and try to move around and look halfway decent doing it. Everyone was pretty awful except Abs.

Ritchie isn't into designer clothes anymore. That was just a short period while he was in Five. Before Five, he actually wore baggy old clothes, rock t-shirts and torn shirts.. he also had long hair.
