Vengaboys

If there's one song to get us on our feet it definitely has to be Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom.

The song always makes a resurgence every couple of years, and this weekend a few lads from Gloucestershire in the UK decided to belt it from the rooftops.

The literal rooftop of their car, that is…

Driving by the streets of Cheltenham, the friends blasted music from speakers which were strapped to the roof of a car.

They played the iconic Vengaboys track and reminded us that, sometimes, all you need to a bit of 90s pop to bring everyone together.

One of the men behind the impromptu street party was Kieran Chapman, and he said that his friends just wanted to unite everyone.

“We were just messing about, and we thought we would do something to bring people together," Chapman told Gloucestershire Live.

"One of my friends is a DJ so we put some speakers on the roof of my car. So we drove around and people started to dance when we stopped. They were jumping on my car, but I didn’t care – there was no damage.”

The lads went on to play a few more tunes during the night (look through the comments), and we have to say, we wish we were there.

And in case you're interested, the Vengaboys totally approved.

Removed from the joys of Electric Picnic for another year, tired and weary souls are now creeping back to a festival-free reality.

The memories will, of course, live on – and no more so than the 90s Power Party area, which over three days thrilled and delighted thousands of fans of the bygone decade.

Hosted by Electric Ireland, revellers were brought back in time – to a time that may not have boasted Wi-Fi, but instead could champion treasures such as Friends; Dawson’s Creek; Buffy; Clueless, and The Matrix.

It was the era that gave rise to Saved ByThe Bell; to Tupac Shakur, and Michael Jordan – not to mention Power Rangers, and Alanis Morissette’s not-so ironic Ironic.  

Nope, it’s hardly surprising that the 90s Power Party stage was pretty much the talk of EP.

With the stage kicking off with 2 Unlimited on Friday, Mark McCabe conquered Stradbally with his throw-back rendition of Maniac on Saturday night. Then the Vengaboys wrapped it all up yesterday.

If you missed it, and sadly not everyone could bear witness to such iconic Nineties-tinged performances, Electric Ireland has kindly stuck the best bits in a 2-minute-long video.

Suffice to say we’ll be watching this on loop for some time…
