Oh my days...it reminds me of my 21st birthday party. I really loved the song back then. Can't believe I'm now 43!! Where does the time go?! 😳 still, every day is a blessing. ❤
I remember, as a kid, I was sitting on the sofa and watching/listening to VIVA and MTV. This was one of those songs that they played...dear me...memories are flooding. So many years ago...
It’s hard to think that Kym Marsh would later go on to be in Corrie then after that, present weekday morning lifestyle programmes for BBC 1, and appear in Waterloo Road as well
Whilst pregnant back in 2001, I had 'Synthesis Pubis Dysfunction' & had to rest as it was excruciatingly painful, so I watched the 'popstars' series & then this song was released & constantly played. Even when I went into labour & got into hospital in the early hours of Saturday 26th of May 2001 to give birth (a week early) all that was on the tv in the middle of the night was the old 'Jerry Springer Show' & after was music. I gave birth to my precious 1st Son Luke Joshua & the feeling was amazing. My bright blue eyed boy came out but with the cord around his neck & not breathing, whilst they took him straight off & cleared his airways & gave him oxygen, it felt like the longest minute of me & my husband's life 💔. But our precious 2nd child was perfect. Whilst holding my newborn son & promising him that me & his daddy would protect him & love him unconditionally for life, I realised that this song that had been playing all Bank Holiday Weekend was our son's 'Birth Song' & the words said it all "Wherever you go & whatever you do, it's PURE & SIMPLE I'll be there for you" 💙 My beautiful baby boy is now 17 yrs old 😯. Me & my husband are so proud of how he is turning into an incredible young man. It's lush how a song can take you back in time to a specific moment & all the emotions & feelings come flooding back 💫😀👍😁 💙😍💞. Lukey, we are ALWAYS here for you & love you beyond words our precious, sparking blue eyed boy 💙 Luke Joshua 💙
Bring back the collective boy/girl bands... It is a million times better than the all-boy or all-girl bands... The early 2000s will always have a special place in my heart. One of the most special things about them is the music, such as this song and Hear'Say.
I bought their cassette and all the songs in that album were good. Their voices blend well together how I wish they could've lasted longer, but you know it doesn't happen in a manufactured pop group, but I'm their fan, and this song, is pure and simply inspiring. It's a great song!
@AJB3yeah, I used to buy cassettes for the car. I guess they stopped selling them around 2007 maybe. Oh yeah, plus the cassettes were a lot cheaper than the CDs.
I remember back when this song was first released, here in South Africa, no-one I knew cared for Hear'Say or S Club 7 or any of the big U.K. pop groups of the time. I felt so out of place. But I'll be damned, I still love this song! I had a big crush on Danny back in the day... in fact, I still do. 😜
Hear’Say weren’t the best Pop Group in the likes of S Club 7 or Steps, but ‘Pure And Simple’ was a great song for its time and sold a million copies. Back when we had good Pop Music. At least some of the members went on to achieve success elsewhere in the later years like Kym Marsh for example, she’s had a successful acting career and had a good 13 year stint on Coronation Street as Michelle Connor
Huh funny story guys, was having a chin wag with the old ball and chain about the weather and I said "oh it says it's just raining this weekend but it could just be hearsay" and now here I am
Kym Marsh me and my girlfriend both love you, Great singer and a fantastic actress our relationship has strengthened in the last 14 months we’ve been together because of you, We love snuggling on the sofa watching Coronation Street in the week and watching you. So many great story lines. Keep doing what your doing Kym. Your so beautiful inside and outside! 😘🌷👌👍
I wonder when Blue officially split up, it must've been after 2013 as they were still releasing singles/albums then, the 2000s and early 2010s was a great era for music!
Still a good song in 2023. The original reality pop stars. The band actually look like theyre just buzzing off winning the show and loving life.
I’m genuinely so obsessed with the half assed choreography and Myleene Klass’ red shades
ROFL 🤣😂🤣
Your comment literally made me LAUGH OUT LOUD!
Pure and SIMPLE 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Oh my days...it reminds me of my 21st birthday party. I really loved the song back then. Can't believe I'm now 43!! Where does the time go?! 😳 still, every day is a blessing. ❤
I was 12 when this came out & now I am 34 years old & living a nightmare 😢
You don't look it.
All around the world, gotta spread the word...
Can’t be this is nearly 20 years ago! Where the hell does time go? 😲
Britney Spears is 40 years old now.

Good on ya Myleene for winning i'm a celebrity! You smashed the eating trial at the end!! Love you on smooth radio too!
Ohhh those big belts, bootleg jeans, and white boots! Nostalgic!! (And when people rocked their real teeth)
I remember when this song first came out it was number 1 on the charts for ages
I just googled. Apparently it was only number one for three weeks lol
But, it's alright, I get it. Time goes by so slowly when you're young 😅
@@hqcf damn lol. Felt alot longer than that plus always hearing it everywhere
@@hqcf Oh wow, Pops - you Googled it? You must be an expert, then.

Shame it's such a generic pop song.
Aww so sweet
Now you've got me all emotional!!! xx
This was apparently the 5 best unknown singing talents in the UK in 2000 lol

Objection!
This is Hearsay.
Not heard this in years. Still an anthem
This song was big in New Zealand, even hit number 1!!
I was in Auckland , 2001. I still remember this song in 2019.
Yes!! I remember that song .. since I was in Primary School. 😍
Lol yes and that liberty x song lol
Great to watch them again in 2019 Kim marsh my favourite from the off still on our screens today
Calling us Kiwis out on our nostalgia. I stumbled upon this after so long!
Anyone here July 24 n absolutely love this song? ❤
Wow...I was a little girl when this song came out, and I only heard it once, still I remember it after all these years.
Ah 2001 life really was pure and simple. For me anyway. I was only 7
Loved this song just as much as the songs of Liberty X, Steps, S Club 7, etc. :)
I miss that era
G_Guy001 - Are you taking the posso what???
G_Guy001 loser
Me too
No he isn’t
Not awful just different to you
This is so 2001! And I love it. Remember going on a school trip to Alton Towers, this was number 1 and was always on the radio. Good times man.
THIS HAS BEEN IN MY HEAD ALL THROUGH THE COURT.
'I've already spoken to Noel. He said wherever I go, whatever I do he's gonna be there - pure and simple'
@elena_96xo Noel turned me on on the taking you under line. His voice reminds me of my best friend Kevin

to be fair Little Mix lasted 10 years! Girls Aloud lasted similar as well I think.
Cassette? It was released in the CD era
@@naznaz4508 cassette was popular back then in the Philippines.
@@surpriser0se are you age 90?
@AJB3yeah, I used to buy cassettes for the car. I guess they stopped selling them around 2007 maybe. Oh yeah, plus the cassettes were a lot cheaper than the CDs.
It’s 2021 and I still love this song good memories
Got goosebumps 😮 talk about a throwback. So many memories 😭 time flies!
Mr. Rottenborn's favourite artist
The most random comment hahaha, I didn't think I'd see Mr Rottenborn mentioned on here. 😂
please explain this
@@Stepho91x please explain this, i dont get it anywhere
I remember this song but Kym Marsh brought me here thanks to Waterloo Road 👍🏽😊
Watching the Depp Heard trial and getting horrid '00 nostalgia
This is giving me All Saints 'Never Ever' vibes.
Lol.
Never thought that. True!
@@giulianavincenzi7959Never ever.
Congratulations Myleene on winning I’m a Celebrity! 👸
16 years after she was famous
Luv that song
Memories 💜
Omg they are so good, Makes me feel so old watching this back
Simply wonderful !
Popstars was such a good show.

But I'll be damned, I still love this song! I had a big crush on Danny back in the day... in fact, I still do. 😜
I will never forget this song
Where has the last 20 years gone?!?!?!
Randomly woke up with this stuck in my head. Don't know why haven't heard it in years.
Here cos of Peter Kay's car share. Full of these sorts of guilty pleasures...that get stuck in your head for weeks.
Lol same
Me too. Sign of how old I'm getting. I remember this too well.
Just in case you forgot it I thought I'd put it back in your ear.
I found an old mixtape my dad made me when I was 9, in 2001, this song was on it...
Remember this song badly in 2001 start of my teenage years 😂 such a classic song 😍
Such a classic!
Man I remember the radios had this on non stop back in the day
"The little welsh one from hearsay"
Noel 😂
Amazing group loved them so much miss them... xx

Still follow them? From what I recall they barely lasted a year....

I know this song has been around for a long time but I have only just given it a chance and yeah really brilliant.
Ding ding ding I found the artists that were top of the charts in New Zealand, took a bit of effort to find
I miss songs like this
If only this has been in the chart rundowns of John Peel's era, you know he'd been first to go "Hear Who?"
Objection! Hearsay.
I wouldn't say you're pure and simple, I'd say you're sophisticated and elegant Pammy
Love this song
Me too.
2019 !! Still loving
Love this 🙏
A good song I totally forgot about, love the lyrics and power
It’s a hybrid of Oasis All Around the World and All Saints Never Ever.
Paul Murphy - Hahaha!! Yeah they should have been sued twice!!!
Paul Murphy yes thought it was never ever at the beginning forgot who it was for a min! Lol
Omg!! I now can’t unhear either !!!
@@dommidavros2211 Oasis would be a fine one to sue seeing as they themselves "borrowed" from many others.
Omg! That's true.. so much like the Oasis song!
since myleene has gone into the im a celeb south africa i find myself back here she aint aged a day
Absolutely!
Kym Marsh is an absolute babe, was back then and still is now.

Late 90s early 2000s hear'say, steps, s club 7, blue, five.

@@jackcrawford3921 They did Eurovision in 2011 so it was obviously sometime after that
@@stephthestar90 yes and they appeared on ITV2’s The Big Reunion (and released a single) in early 2013 as well
@@jackcrawford3921 I remember they were on that show. Can't remember the song they released after it
@@stephthestar90 I can’t remember the name of it but I do know they released one but I’m not sure if it did well in the charts
Whole kuils reigned by them
2001 good times my childhood loved hearsay popstars
Pure and simple😍🤩😍🤩
Memories!! Love the song!! Love the look, relaxed jeans... better than the crappy skinny jeans we get everywhere now!!!
