1. An English band from the 1980s and 1990s.
2. An indie rock band from Canada,
1. Bros were an English boy band active in the late 1980s and early 1990s, consisting of the twin brothers Matt Goss and Luke Goss along with Craig Logan. They were managed by former Pet Shop Boys manager Tom Watkins, who it was rumoured was actually one of the main songwriters, working under the name "The Brothers" with other songwriters to give the impression that the Goss brothers were the actual writers of the early hits.
Their first single, I Owe You Nothing, was released in 1987 on CBS. The second, When Will I Be Famous reached number two in the United Kingdom. Their first album, Push, was released in 1988. The group achieved a total of 11 top 40 singles and three Top 40 albums in the United Kingdom, making them one of the biggest acts in British music between 1988 and 1993. They reached number one when "I Owe You Nothing" was re-issued in 1988. Consequently, they also sparked a fashion craze of attaching Grolsch bottle tops to their shoes.
Logan left the band in 1989, and the Goss brothers continued touring. A second album, The Time was released in 1989 followed by Changing Faces in 1991 before the band imploded in 1992, amid contractual and money issues.
Matt Goss started his solo career in 1995 and has enjoyed more top 40 success, especially after being one of the chefs on Gordon Ramsay's Hells Kitchen (ITV). Luke Goss appeared in west end musicals throughout the 1990s and has also appeared in several movies since 2000, including Blade II, a 2004 TV version of Frankenstein as the creature, and he co-starred alongside Samuel L. Jackson and Eugene Levy in The Man. He also recorded several singles himself, including "Sweeter Than The Midnight Rain" with his 'Band Of Thieves', and was briefly signed to One Little Indian records.
Craig Logan managed P!nk and in 2006 was put in charge of Sony BMG's RCA Records label group.
Love to Hate You
Bros Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And a mouth too wide for your face
An ego as big as a mountain
And in those clothes
You look a disgrace.
Girlfriends love to hate you
And you relish all their spite
And you certainly know
Wrong from right.
Well I love to hate you
Oh I'd love to hate you
Love to hate you, oh yeah
Ooh I'd hate to love you
But I just can't help myself
Loving you, I can't help myself
How comes you have this power
When you're only five foot four
Surely you come from this world
Yet men come flocking to your door
You gotta a certain way of sitting
A body language of your own
Something like a magnet
Please leave me leave me alone
Well I love to hate you
Oh I'd love to hate you
Love to hate you, oh yeah
Ooh I'd hate to love you
But I just can't help myself
Loving you, I can't help myself
You drive people crazy
With one look of those eyes
Well I love to hate you
Oh I'd love to hate you
Love to hate you, oh yeah
Ooh I'd hate to love you
But I just can't help myself
Loving you, I can't help myself
The song "Love to Hate You" by Bros is a pop song that tells the story of someone who is disliked by most people in their life. The lyrics describe this person as having a big ego and being physically unappealing. However, despite the singer's hatred towards this person, they cannot help but feel love for them. The lyrics express a sense of confusion and frustration with the conflicting emotions the singer is experiencing.
The first verse begins with an insult towards the person, describing their physical appearance and character flaws. The chorus reveals that others share this sentiment, as the person is disliked by their girlfriend and family. Despite this, the singer finds themselves attracted to the person, specifically their "certain way of sitting" and "body language."
The second verse reveals that even though the person is physically unremarkable, they have a certain power over others. This power is illustrated by the way men are "flocking" to them, despite their lack of physical appeal. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the singer's feelings of love and hate towards this person.

It makes me really sad to see they only have 15k subscribers on you tube. Bros were my teenage crush band. I look at pics of them now and I can't help but feel sorry for Matt (never looks truly comfortable in his own skin, and always seeking the fame which once was). Whereas Luke and Craig really did well in life. Still listen to their songs every now and then though to reminisce those days. â¤ď¸
