Just wondering if anyone else liked them and listened to them at all?

Home Site

I have thier 3 albums. PM me if you want them...

Sweet. I think they are pretty gewd. And pretty hawt too =O I should listen to more of their stuff.

Haha yeah they are,
I heard them from a freind a few years ago, definately great to listen too, ^^

I've known about them since they debuted half a decade ago. Personally, I don't think they're overrated. Technique-wise, they're only so-so. I've heard better violin players. They mainly use sex appeal to sell themselves, really. Not to bad-mouth them or anything. Talented bunch, yes, but I haven't really been impressed by them. They're just like any other quartet, only they make up for in looks what they may lack in music.

I suppose, but I have yet to see any extremely talented musicians look so sultry... and if you know any, please, be kind and share

I could lay on a grand piano for you You see, that's what I was talking about. They depend more on their image than their skills, not to say that image isn't important in the entertainment industry, but I don't quite like how shallow said industry can be.

That's true, and maybe you should lay on a grand piano while Hito plays (I don't even know if he can play) but yeah... haha, that would be the sex.

I'm almost willing to bet that he does play. He's Asian, after all. If not the piano, then something else. I even have a little black dress. Should get a white grand piano for that one . . . [/off-topic]

The only Bond songs I have and like are "The 1812", "Kismet" (BTW, if you're interested to know, Bond performs this song in the movie Johnny English, and it's not just on the OST, because you actually see them, I believe, but it's been a while since I've watched the movie), "Dream Star", "Victory", and "Libertango".

I started listening to the music long before I actually saw them, XD
I enjoy the music for the music really rather than for the image

I did, too, and even then, I just thought it wasn't anything too special. Just a classical quartet and . . . a drum set. Maybe some synth here and there.


I also enjoy it for the music, but like I said, compared to other things I've heard in this genre, I've heard better.

I agree that there are better, but I havnt got any of the other CDs that are better with me.. I did have a load but I lost them somewhere. ><

If you like Bond's stuff, you'll like Vanessa Mae as well. Give her a try some time, too.

Rightoh!
*Goes to look for some songs*

I could send you some if you want me to, but I only have about as many Vanessa Mae songs as I do Bond ones.

EKE: Aw, you should've mentioned that piano thing sooner~ We had a white grand piano that we just traded in like a month and a half ago after my brother moved out of the other house...*incredibly irrelevent*

Hey - it's BOND!!!! Freaking sweet! I love them!

I only have one of their cd's, though... I'll have to get me the others - or is one kind of a dud? Most artists put out at least one dud... Let's just put it this way - I'm low on cash, and I already have Shine - whic of the other two should I get?

Thanks! Sorry I didn't find this thread earlier!

I love Bond!!! I heard two of their songs while I was at my friend's house. His sister was the one actually playing the CD. Then I liked it and went to the music store and check it out and finally bought "Explosive: The Best of Bond". I'm just loving it! My favorite tracks are Victory, Explosive, Wintersun and Viva. Though it's a bit boring if you keep on listening to Viva all the time since it's just like a looping a part of Vivaldi's Four Seasons - Winter. I'm planning on buying the DVD of their concert in the Royal Albert Theatre.

Yes, Bond doesn't have extraordinary talent but they're good. This is what sells in the industry. It's a combination. It's not every so often that you see four hot girls playing violins and wearing skimpy outfits and dancing while playing their instruments in a beautiful, sexy symphony. And the fusion of classical and pop is just amazing. I can't help but dance (even if I don't know how to dance) when listening to Wintersun.

Those old-school, purists of the classical genre may snub Bond but it's not stopping them from getting everybody else's attention. And besides, not many people listen to classical music. And those classical genre die-hards should be happy because Bond can attract people to classical music.

GAH!!! I love them! I don't know why I only discovered them two days ago. XD BTW, I especially like Haylie Ecker and Gay-Yee Westerhoff. <3

BTW, I'll give that Vanessa-Mae a try too, Quitis88. Seems like she uses the same "formula" as Bond. But I've heard from most people that Bond's better than Vanessa-Mae.
