1. loved them ever since the 1st album Leave a Whisper
2. I can relate. There are bands I've liked since they first started that other people say they like, but they only known one or two of their more recent songs and it can be really annoying sometimes. I should clarify that I mean I get annoyed with the people who say they're fans but only know one or two songs.
3. No. Why are you complaining about their popularity, and why are you hating on their new fans? Not EVERYONE knew who they were before Second Chance was on the radio, but that doesn't mean that we can't enjoy a band that is new to US and that we happen to like. Do you think you've somehow EARNED being called a "fan" just because you've spent years of going to concerts and buying t-shirts, as if that was hard work? I'd think a true fan wouldn't be upset by the new popularity of one of their favorite bands and would just keep rocking out to the music. And if some people like only a few songs of theirs, then WHO CARES.!? Whatever floats their boat. For the record, i do like Second Chance, but that is the only song of theirs that i know. I'm just speaking for the people who are "new" fans, because your complaint about this is nonsense and they don't deserve to be criticized for liking a band.
