During the peak years of Boyz II Men in the mid-1990s‚ the wildly popular singing group’s members say they were working so hard that they missed out on a lot of things. As Nathan Morris put it‚ “A lot of it was a blur‚ which really sucks. All we wanted to do was focus on being the best singers we could possibly be. I don’t think there was a day that something wasn’t going on. We were kind of like robots.” Fortunately with the level of fame the group amassed and the respect they earned‚ the group

The Band Perry‚ a sibling musical trio composed of Kimberly Perry and her brothers Reid and Neil‚ is an interesting study in contrast. Just with the first two singles‚ the newcomers offered a lightweight‚ ebullient number in "Hip to My Heart" and a sad‚ weighty ballad‚ "If I Die Young." And most impressively‚ both songs manage to fit in well on their surprisingly diverse debut album.

Being in both band and choir can be tough‚ but the nerve-racking performances can be even tougher. Just in band alone‚ you have to make sure your instrument works‚ you have to know and remember your notes‚ and learn how to play the music which is pretty difficult. In choir‚ you have to make sure you’re in the right seating arrangement‚ the right octave‚ and you have to make sure you’re singing the right part. The performances are perhaps the most stressful part of both band and choir because you
