S Club | lowculture

We had only just managed to pick ourselves up and resume something close to a normal life following the shocking news of the impending S Club split when we suffered a major setback.

This came in the form of their farewell single, Say Goodbye, which is quite possibly the saddest song you will ever hear in your life. It was all we could do to stop ourselves rushing to the bathroom for the razor blades.

Our spies tell us that the video is even more depressing, so if you should chance upon it on TV this weekend, make sure you’re prepared to weep buckets (especially when Jo fades out right at the end).

This week, lowculture acquired a review copy of the book version of S Club’s Seeing Double after winning a bout of unarmed combat with a colleague.

Needless to say, we’re delighted with our spoils, and have been dying to share it with you.

Our favourite bit so far is from page 19 (which, by an amazing coincidence, is also the first page it fell open on at random).

It goes:

Jon’s bedroom door banged open and he ran out, too. He waved a cricket bat in the air, his hair standing on end from sleep.

“Nobody move, I’ve got a weapon,” he yelled.

If you want to see Jon’s weapon on the big screen (and, frankly, who wouldn’t), get down to your local cinema and see the film – assuming you can get past the huge crowd demanding admission.

2013 UPDATE: Or just watch it on YouTube!
