Aqua Making A Comeback!

Filed under: Music Minute

Hey, remember that song Barbie Girl?

You're lying if you say you don't!

Well, that little diddy was a jem from the Danish group Aqua and believe it or not, they are back with some new songs.

Listen to their new "comeback" single Back To The 80s (above).

What do U think?

      It grew on me after 2 x - cute



    26. 26

      Why does she sound like a chipmunk? It's a novelty song.



    27. 27

      God awful.



    28. 28

      I think that they're going to stay in the eighties!



    29. 29

      Re: ariellee – lol thanx! i couldn't figure out what song it was exactly!



    30. 30

      That was painfully lame…please stay in the 90's where you belong Aqua.



    31. 31

      this is so wronggg.
      some things should just be put to rest…
      i hate how i think this is catchy.



    32. 32

      i am so freakin excited about aqua coming back. a friend and i were just talking about them… crazy stuff!



    33. 33

      so cheesy and so FUN!!! love it!!! LMAO!!!



    34. 34

      eh its alright
      but the Lyrics are
      Awsome haha



    35. 35

      Love it!!!!



    36. 36

      Aaaagghhrrr!!! (choking self sparatically)



    37. 37

      How old are they like 40? I remember lovin "Come on Barbie lets go party, Ahh AH AH yeah"! I was like 10 or 11 yearsold.



    38. 38

      Barbie Girl - so ironic. Back to the 80's song - so ironic. Squeaky babygirl grown-up voice on Lene = so third wave feminist. Aqua returning = if they think they can make a buck, why not.

      39

      just a novelty song, plus it's super shitehouse



    40. 40

      It's not Last Christmas from Wham, but it's a 70's guitar tune by Janis Ian "At Seventeen". Check out that song and you will hear the similarities



    41. 41

      lol it's funny! i love it! guilty pleasure music is back for me!



    42. 42

      Re: RockerBaby – lol dude good one

    46. 46

      OMG WHAT JUNK.



    47. 47

      this song has been out for a while now, next!



    48. 48

      it's the same concept at bowling for soup's 1985.
      and the girl singer sounds like heidi montag hahah



    49. 49

      is it me, or does the background of this song kinda sound like "at seventeen" by janis ian?



    50. 50

      I MISS THEM!

      cute song, and very Aqua-fide



    60. 60

      i EFFIN LOVE it

      but this song is pretty funny
      i like it

    62. 62

      doesn't sound too bad… and the lyrics are HIGHlarious……………… lolz



    63. 63

      loves it!! it is just like the old school dr. jones, and barbie girl stuff…. :-)



    64. 64

      Re: Antoinette64 – They came about in the mid 90's fool.



    65. 65

      It sounds alright



    66. 66

      haha yess its a dumb song, but I was born in the 80s so I had a good laugh!



    67. 67

      AQUA IS AMAZING!!!! I have their logo tattooed on my neck. i hope they tour in the US!!!!!!



    68. 68

      Bad song, sorry Aqua



    69. 69

      Oh, and by the way "Bobby Bitch" this song has not been out forever. It has only been out since Monday. They previewed a demo version to audiences at some concerts last year in Denmark (I attended the one in Copenhagen), but it had a different sound and some of the lyrics have changed. The production on it is much better and more polished.



    70. 70

      I use to be obsessed with Barbie Girl.. those were the teeny bopper days.. As for the song, its fun to listen to and all the 80's babies will get a kick out of it, i'm sure. ~~still living in a barbie world, made of plastic, it's fantastic :) ~~



    71. 71

      no lie it kinda just basically sounds like alvin and the chipmunks …



    72. 72

      I love Aqua, listen to their CDs all the time, but this is so disappointing!! Please come back with better songs. :(



    73. 73

      so addicting

    74. 29 says – reply to this


      74

      very funny!



    75. 75

      as a child of the 80's, I think this song SUCKS!



    76. 76

      I really like it! But it's sounds so much as her 90's hit! I don't mean to be rude…but do they realize it's 2009??

    77. Aero says – reply to this


      77

      is this a joke??



    78. 78

      It does sound like her old stuff but so what, it's cute just like Aqua :D



    79. 79

      My nephews & neices love "Barbie Girl" & make me play it for them all the time. I like this song & love Aqua, so I'll definitely be getting it!



    80. 80

      Yeah weird but definitly sounds like them a whole lot.



    81. 81

      i heart aqua



    82. 82

      they're cool, but I can only handle so much of them. They're too weird for me i guess



    83. 83

      they sound the same as they did 10 years ago!!! lol



    84. 84

      my 5-year old niece would love this song. too bubblegum for me though.



    85. 85

      I love it, this revives and reinvokes the aqua in me, as well as the 80s, since I was born in that decade. Viva Aqua!!!



    86. 86

      Hehe it's pretty catchy! I like it :D



    87. 87

      LOL i dont think it will catch on as much as barbie girl did….



    88. 88

      Honestly, I think it's cute and fun, but on the same level that "Babies of the 80s" song was from "Something Corporate" was. Something Nostalgic for the late 70s/early 80s babies but not something that will be a big hit.



    89. 89

      Ummm, not really sure. With a good music video the song probably got a chance to become one of the summerhits this year. Not sure of US, but perhaps in Europe.
      Peope has been 80s retro since the beginning of the 2000s and the nostalgia still doesn't seem to end.

    90. uh ho says – reply to this


      90

      eurotrash



    91. 91

      I Love it!!!



    92. 92

      That's not the best song of the year, but that's not the worst u put here perez



    93. 93

      i like it



    94. 94

      I love Aqua and I'm really happy about this comeback!!!

      The song will be included in their upcoming Greatest Hits album (in Denmark it will be released next 15th of June). Other three new song will be available in the GH: "Live fast - Die young" (more rock) and "My mamma said…" (a mix between a ballad and an uptempo song) you can find them on YouTube ;)

      We're in 2009 but it doesn' mean that everything must be sad and boring!!! Aqua are welcome in this sad world!



    95. 95

      Its alright, but not great. Maybe another track will be better?



    96. 96

      barbie girl was a catchy weird song. this will stick once the video comes out, which should be a scream (i.e. "when michael jackson's skin was black"). bring on the north american tour - maybe they can open for SuBo!!!



    97. 97

      LOVES IT!



    98. 98
