Liberty X - Thinking It Over

[@ConorJames-cs9sg]

Absolute Banger and what a generation to be bought up in. No camera phones, no pressure, out every weekend, care free, everyone up for a laugh and come back from the pub with change out of a £20 note. Feel sorry for the generations now that won’t experience that!

[@adamlarsson3828]

and college discos where you just danced your legs off. yes!

[@afflulifestyle1784]

@@adamlarsson3828 100%, & if you dance today people look at you like your crazy, they'd sooner take selfies or stand up against the walls trying to look cool.

So true. Tech was simpler then. It was the era of dial up internet on Windows 98 (XP was still very new) or a PowerPC Mac. The internet back then felt more 'real' and less monetised and corporate. You would have to spend a lot of time exploring or 'surfing' the web and people had their own personal websites (anyone remember Geocities and Angelfire), now most online activity is confined to social media and a small selection of websites/apps and now we have Generative AI. The likes of ChatGPT are already causing problems. I work in a university and many students have been caught using AI for assignments

[@stephthestar90]

There was a lot more optimism and hope in the early 2000s and the British economy was thriving. Tony Blair was a good PM until he started the Iraq War. In technology Windows XP was new and there was a lot of hype surrounding it. It was the 'bridge' between classic and modern Windows and the true start of the digital age. Smartphones and tablets existed but were mainly aimed at the business market. I had a Palm Pilot though 🤣 and I used to play Bejeweled on it. Apple had just released the iPod and the 'lampshade' iMac G4. AI was the stuff of science fiction

[@ConorJames-cs9sg]

Younger generations look at me funny these days when I say we took digital cameras with us on nights out back then 😂

[@gavinlisk2292]

Ahhh the early 2000's! The memories come flooding back!

[@ulfricstormcloak4230]

Such an under rated song. The vocals are really beautiful on this and the chemistry the group had was great.

[@beckinbinderin]

It got to number 5 in the UK and number 2 on the UK indie charts. Seemed to do well to me.

[@TheMattyPlant]

When garage invaded summer in the early noughties, its a great track, wideboys on it, and great vocals it could never fail!

[@Frederm]

This band was the underdog. I was rooting for them.I liked what they represented. To not give up and second chance. When this song came out I remember feeling young and full of promise. Before you know it, you are are old. How time flies.

[@brandonwilson2732]

Just came in my head after a good 15 years. Quality tune!

[@MickJaggerLoveChild]

This song was so original, def one of their best even though it's their first. SO underated!!

[@lozhell]

You’re joking, it’s like every other garage track that was out at this time.

[@notonyournelly5475]

I hated this stuff at the time. I think it's really quite good listening to it today. I'm not sure why this song came into my head. It's better than I remember.

[@vanessamorgan6522]

Saw these last night in Cardiff along with bonnie Tyler, s club 7 & bananarama, I really thought these were amazing live! Got the crowd going & Michelle was celebrating her 40th birthday & their manager came on stage to give her a cake. Genuinely looked like they were all friends unlike a lot of fake bands who don’t get on. 😊

[@evag2726]

One of my favourite songs from the early 00s...sad to see the former Twin Towers, RIP to those who perished.

[@davidwilliams2959]

Such a beautiful showcase for every member of the group, the vocals are just so gorgeous. Wonderful x x x x x

[@adambirchenall]

Coming up to it's 20th Anniversary of this track, it's brilliant, Listed in my cd collection as "Liberty" before the X came in

[@EddieHutchinson-jm9zc]

... as the rap clearly stated. No 'X' at this stage - there was one at the time of their biggie.

[@likedbymany1]

😂😂😂😂 i recently discovered this song/group and this is my first time seeing this video and I'm weak cause i was dancing the same way as them when i heard it.😅 Need this in HD

[@davejones6209]

[@greatstuff8554]

Saw them live back in the day on a free stage in Cambridge! God the memories I had the album

[@valerieselau7384]

Still one of the greatest songs of the 21st century by one of the world's greatest pop bands ever. 😍

[@ChrisRichmond]

I had just seen this song mentioned on the Big Reunion- I forgot all about it! I can remember taping this off the Top 40 back in 2001!

[@lewiswhitehead5170]

it was produced by wideboys so it definitely has a garage feel to it

[@5340robert]

I remember seeing them live in 2002 and singing L to the I to be B to the E to the R T Y X

[@machoman32supafly]

I was watching the hit list when a liberty x track came on and soon as i heard of their name this was the track that came to mind

[@kclevs]

Defo has an old school vibe. still love it now

I love Libertyx now and forever x

[@user-gm2ix2ii3k]

One of their best songs ❤

[@andrewmark2783]

This is still such a tune

[@Scallion_D]

This tunes much better than the over-rated Just A Little, by far Liberty X's best tune.

[@milacab-gp5rw]

Love all their songs

[@williamspencer7593]

This video is the best video ever that Liberty x did ??😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄

[@jeremyhaines3847]

I have forgotten about this song it's good song

[@youtuber2021]

I remember the band had to go court because of there already being a band in America called Liberty. So that's why they changed to Liberty X and Just A Little Bit and this song is my favourite from them.

[@karaokekingskingdom]

The male vocals on this track are incredible

[@ljsummerz7119]

Haven't heard this song in 15 years! Forgot how attractive the 3 girls were.. 😍

[@smithylvs]

tony is the sexiest out of all the band by far

[@shaun2985]

ah man i forgot about this song. i used to like it when it was out. i liked the garagey + guitars which artful dodger pioneered and everyone else picked up on around 2001/2/3

FUUUUUUUCK ME. I’m ancient 😂😂🤦🏼‍♀️ cheers KZbin

Love this song to this day, i listen to this after artful dodger songs and the song Falling by boom!

[@thejuice2744]

2019 and rinsing it

[@MrChristopher0710]

ahh, i like it a lot. It's very simple and lets the singer-performers 'perform' the song. And they seem to have good, easy rapport. =) I prefer that to the (often totally) effects-driven videoclips of today...

[@jack9107]

Any 2020 Liberty X listeners?😍

[@stephthestar90]

Yes! I was a huge fan back in the day and have been spending lockdown reminiscing on better times. I miss the late 90s and 2000s so much!

[@jack9107]

[@stephthestar90]

@@jack9107 So do I. I'm wondering will life ever get back to what it was? This virus has ruined so many things. I know there was the SARS outbreak in 2002-2004 but that didn't spread much outside Asia. On thing I do miss from the early 2000s is the tech. Windows 98 and XP were way better than the mess that is Windows 10

[@jack9107]

stephthestar90 I know! I keep thinking about it and it makes me so sad:( I could not agree more haha I miss so much about the early 2000’s

[@stephthestar90]

@@jack9107 all they keep saying on the news is that social distancing in some form could go on for a year! I hope that won't be the case. If I had a time machine I'd go straight back to the early 2000s. I was going through some old computer software earlier and it made me think back to the days of Windows XP and lampshade iMacs! Even politics wasn't as messy then as it is now

[@Tony-hw2pw]

Stunning girls great tune who’s listening December 2019 👍🏻😜

[@nobodyshome4633]

They began recording their Debut Album mid-2001. This music video must’ve been recorded not long after that, as you can see the WTC towers in the distance. This single was released post-9/11 on the 24th September 2001. Very interesting. Definitely has the feel of that era. Reminds me of the early years of my childhood. Better days.

[@gemmaljohn]

this was my fav song by them, its also on my work out dvd!

Love this song. After watching The Big Reunion I never knew Michelle felt the way she did. When I was younger she was the one in Liberty X I felt was the most attractive and wanted to look like. The fact that she was taking slimming pills like M and Ms makes it more sad.

On Big Reunion Michelle Heaton talks about having been chunky. Her word not mine. After watching this and other vids, I can't see it! What am I missing? She looks great! They all do. Anyone got an answer?

[@SH-bm8yp]

nictasia I know your comment is years old but no I think she has the perfect body. In no way chunky, absolutely perfect.

[@derrykev]

She's very slim here. As the band became more successful she did gain some weight (see video for ''Just a Little') but she still wasn't a big girl at all. There's just so much pressure on female celebrities to be "perfect"
