This was followed by more of their HUGE hits including 3am, Crashed The Wedding, and Thunderbirds Are Go.

The singer replied: “No. On that day I didn’t. I’m glad that we split up at the time because it allowed us to do this and come back together.”
Matt continued: “People have asked me, ‘Do you regret splitting up?’ And I don’t. It was s**t towards the end of Busted.
“It was a really bad vibe in the camp and it felt like the right time to stop that.
“Now it feels like how it’s meant to feel. It’s like the very beginning again. Right now it feels like it’s barely even begun.”
Reflecting on the music industry now, James said: “We got to establish our band at a time when people actually looked at what was happening in music and the charts. No one cares now.”
Charlie continued: “It was good being in a band when people bought music, too. I’m so grateful that I was able to experience that era.”
