the story: Currently topping of the charts all over England, the fab five from Dublin have been making the girls scream since 1995, with such hits as "All That I Need". They've gotten some exposure Stateside, but mostly they're an English/European phenomenon, firmly entrenched as the kings of the English hits circuit. Plenty of tours to promote the endless singles leave the girls screaming for more all over the UK. Still, the boys seem to be taking it all in stride. Says Stephen, "At times things get to you, but you can't get upset. It's a job which lets us see the world, makes us money and have a good time."
