Serendipity: A vid that was once my fav

YouTube is a wonder, I’d say! Many a times, simple browsing through the videos has led me to some wonderful discoveries. May be an amazing unbelievable video, or may be a beautiful song/dance, or maybe some new interesting bits of information.

Once I’ve seen a video in which our newly-wed class tutor and her hubby enacted a famous Malayalam film song! It was really weird and embarrassing! :o

Good for her that she resigned from the college before we discovered this video.

(Well... the video is no longer available. Probably they both took it down after reading all our comments. But I should agree that her acting skills are excellent, unlike her teaching skills)

One of my all time favourite songs, WHERE YOU ARE by RIE SINCLAIR, from one of my favourite TV series, GENERAL HOSPITAL, was also serendipity. Watched a video, then watched another video in the suggestions by YouTube, then it connected to another video and so on and finally happened to watch this particular episode, got so addicted to the song played in the background and that’s how I collected all the words I could pick up from it and googled them. Since then, not a day in my life has passed without listening to WHERE YOU ARE. Currently I’ve got all episodes of GENERAL HOSPITAL. And I’ve become a die-hard fan of Rie Sinclair!

Something happened last day in YouTube. I was wasting my time idly browsing through YouTube videos when I finally reached a mind-blowing Tango performance by Rachel Stevens and Vincent Argentine. The lady looked very familiar. I visited her YouTube channel and watched one of her videos. Instantly a smile blossomed on my face and I drifted back to the good old times...

She was a member of the former British teen-pop band S Club 7 whose TV series was broadcast in Nickelodeon India more than a decade back. Yes, it was one of my favourite shows  and the ones that introduced me to the world of Music Bands and TV Series :) :) :)

Tina, Jon, Paul, Hannah, Bradley, Rachel and Jo - Oh! How I loved watching those seven youngsters dance and sing and have all the fun together... I used to try dancing along with them (Once, while dancing to S Club Party, I even accidentally hit the glass on the table, cracking it into pieces! From that day onwards dancing was almost banned at home :P)

This TV series featured the band as an aspiring group living in Florida. During every episode they’d play one song of the band. It was a fun series... :)

Often I’d fancy having a boyfriend who looks like Jon 3:)

 Jo was the best singer, Tina’s dance was great and Hannah was very cute.

But my personal favourite was Rachel as she seemed extremely cute and pretty, there was something special and unique in her dance moves and I loved the way she shakes her hips and "do her thing" ;)

Though I don’t remember much about the story and other characters, a professor who showers saliva fountain while speaking is still vivid in my memory :D

Guess it was one of the best kids’ programs in Nickelodeon at that time.

You know, I felt so lucky and really very happy to be the kid of '90s who grew up watching and enjoying S Club 7; something that the new generation kids cannot claim!

Missing those times when I used to rush home after school, not wanting to miss even the title song of S Club 7! Wish I could relive those moments......sigh!

Thank you guys - Tina, Jon, Paul, Hannah, Bradley, Rachel and Jo - for making my childhood very special... and thank you YouTube, for helping me rediscover my childhood! <3 <3 <3

The gorgeous lady at the bottom right corner is my fav Rachel <3

“There ain’t no party like an S Club party” B)

Well, do you have any such special songs/series/films that take you back to some treasured moments? What are they? Care to share...... :)
