That’s because you’re a stupid whore with no taste

I am a Fightstar fan and I wish these guys could lay it all to rest (esp. this James dude). It is a bit boring now. I never heard of Busted until I joined the official Fightstar forum, as there were random people signing up just to give Charlie some stick. I found Fightstar through a Feeder gig last year and can honestly say I have never looked back. He is producing music he loves and seems a very happy chappy at that. Why give someone stick for finding and doing something they love? It is all very alien to me… /

Ho is James?

i’d actually like to see both as i love them both so much.

I think Matt and James need to move on its been 6 years now, and all becuase they can’t get success from what they do in there own careers, they have to stir shit up.

Fightstar are a 10000 times better than Busted could ever dream to be as a whole, its not just about the fame and money, and I respect Chaz for all his courage, because its certainly paid off.

A little message to Matty and Jimbob, move on dudes, the sooner you do and realise Busted will NEVER reunite as a band the easier it will be on your brains.

Thank you and goodnight.

I’m both a Busted AND Fightstar fan. But I think that some people need to get over it. Busted are no more, and it would NEVER be the same if they got back together.
Sure I miss Busted, but I’d rather have that Charlie is happy in Fightstar, than MISERABLE in Busted. I love Matt, but the tweets about Charlie made me angry.
People shouldn’t blame Charlie for this anymore.. He wasn’t happy in Busted, and I’m sure that if Matt or James had been unhappy in Busted, they would have quit too.

Malane, you have a level head and take a good approach to the situation.

They wouldn’t be taken seriously even if it did happen.

I was a Busted fan, a big one ..
And to be honest, I probably would have never even listened to Fightstar if Charlie wasn’t in there….
But I did, and now they’re like my fave band ,
I still love Busted dearly,
it’ll be five years in January since the split –
They must have done something right if they have legions of fans still out there begging them to get back together .
That’s why Matt said all that –
Because so many people were begging for Busted to reunite . !!
And to above- James is James Bourne, another member of Busted, who then went on to form short-lived boyband Son of Dork .

6 years, 1 year unofficial and as a side project, and 5 in there true form of the words FIGHTSTAR OWN

Charlie was old enough to make his own decisions, and as a huge Fightstar fan I personally think he made a good choice. I know if I wasn’t happy doing something, I’d stop doing it. Busted were a cool band back in the day, but I think Fightstar show Charlie’s maturity and like Dave said, after 6 years of being together, they have produced some fantastic material. Matt was wrong to write that, and if he thinks that Charlie is a cool guy then I don’t understand why he’d then make comments like he did. It was a big move for Charlie to make, and so he deserves all of the success he gets with Fightstar, now and in the future.

ps. The bands love for Jaegermeister has made me respect them even more. Good stuff.

This is actually charlie’s last tour with fightstar before rejoining busted.

hahaha
i totally agree with Dave. Just because Matt and James aren’t having success in their careers, no need to stir shit up.

I wish Charlie all the best with Fightstar, one of my favorite bands.

james and matt are my faves….JB is the best songwriting ever. i still love busted… i like charlie too…but i think he made stupid things =/
get over it every1

It still somewhat bugs me that Charlie was in Busted in the first place as it kinda taints his work with Fightstar.

But fuck it, Tannhauser Gate is a shitkicker of a song. More of this on the next album please!

Joe Jonas listens to Slipknot.

I was a huge Busted fan when they were around. Since then, my music taste has changed so much and I like bands that are nothing like Busted at all, and when I listen to them I realise that they werent really that good.
But the point is, I wouldnt even know half the bands I like now if it wasnt for them. Because then I started listening to bands that played their own instruments, and then listened to other bands that I wouldnt have even thought about before. And I think thats the case with a lot of people, so I do owe a lot to Busted for that, so I cant slag them off.
But it is a bit annoying to read their tweets cos I can understand them being nostalgic about Busted, but they cant get mad at Charlie. He’s happy, and he’s making way better music (even though im not that much of a Fighstar fan either) so they should be happy for him. Even though I have nothing against any of them.

well i think its ridiculous that 5 years on people are still having fights on the internet about busted getting back together and the fact that charlie was in busted.
who cares! seriously, bands split up, at least charlie’s still making music (much much better music in my opinion)
all the people who spam youtube videos with ‘we want busted back’ or whatever just need to grow up!

Well I did like Busted at the time but Ive grown up and sos Charlie and now Matt and James need to as well. Charlies managed to establish himself as a credible rocker and I dont why you would jepordise that to entertain kids, go FIGHTSTAR!

i just wish that fightstar and busted wud both go away forever

Matt and James are both still writing for themselves and other artists,and are both well. James was always more pop and commercial and he co-wrote The Saturdays recent No 2 hit. And The Jonas Brothers (ker-ching!!! £££ for James)

All the cool Fighstar fans will say “Pfft! The Saturdays! Pfft! JoBro!!” but there is room in music for many different genres.

Perhaps Matt was wrong to tweet so publicly. But I saw the last 6 Busted gigs ever (6 gigs in 6 days!!! 2 on the Saturday) and Charlie did seem miserable.

But one day I would like him to publicly acknowledge that Busted was the stepping stone to what he has now with Fightstar.

He is talented and would have done well I am sure, but the path he chose was to go pop and commercial FIRST.

Fightstar are brilliant live too – as were Busted, esp May/June 2003 when they were all SOOO excited about thier success

I like both bands personally. Matt and james have been writing together again though according to twitter so anything is possible.
