What's everyone opinion on this?

I don't like music reunions, never seems to work, can't remember the last successful reunion..

I can't see this working. S Club 7 were my childhood (and a lot of other people's) but their music was very much a product of its time and there's no way they would gain any new fans if they were to reform and release new music. The kids who made up their fanbase have grown out of them. I also think the music scene has moved on from groups like them. They wouldn't last 5 seconds in the current scene. Look what happened with the Steps reunion.

I liked S club 7 whilst growing up but I think some things should be left untouched. I also think they have left it far to long for a reunion that they want to be taken seriously. They should have never split when they did, they had a core fan base at the time.

S Club 7 won't ever reunite , most of them have moved on since , however they all remain great friends and stay in regular contact.

Tina has re-joined though according to wiki which makes it S Club 4 now.

S Club 7 will always remind me of my childhood years dancing around to Reach in my bedroom but to reunite now? It wouldn't work. I'm a strong believer in just certain bands or music being left in their era. The 90's was their era and that should be it!

Although I did watch Jo/Bradley perform a few songs live in a Wetherspoons pub in Leeds during it's opening. Not gonna lie, I loved it

Blondie did very well when they reunited, and they did it properly.

They released a new album, and have released more since. They haven't just relied on the old stuff.

They are in a very different league to the likes of S Club 7 though.

Do you mean the number one album or the sell out arena tour?

A reunion doesn't have to be about making new music and being big again, it's sometimes just a bit of nostalgia for the fans, and some income for the performers. I went to Steps Reunion and The Big Reunion and loved them both, didn't expect any new material from either, was just nice to relive my childhood for a night.

I think they would be like Steps. A reunion documentary series, greatest hits album and tour would all be successful. when they've done all that they would be snookered. a new material album would flop completely

I think Jo would do better hiring some proper backing singers.

I was thinking of their Christmas album. I know that flopped. My point is that the reunion tours are not about gaining new fans but that people would go just for nostalgia and some would possibly buy GH albums or compilations for nostalgia reasons as well. None of those manufactured acts would gain new fans now so I guess the nostalgia thing and people reliving their childhoods is part of it.
