1. A pop … Read Full Bio ↴There are at least two artists which have used the name Hanson
1. A pop rock group from Oklahoma, United States
2. A funk rock group from the United Kingdom active in the 1970's.
1. Hanson is an American pop rock band from Tulsa, Oklahoma. The band consists of guitarist and vocalist Isaac Hanson (born November 17, 1980) pianist and vocalist Taylor Hanson (born March 14, 1983), and drummer and vocalist Zac Hanson (born October 22, 1985). Their work has spanned many different genres, including rock, blues, folk, and pop. They are most noted for their Grammy-nominated 1997 hit single, “MMMBop.” Their 1997 album Middle of Nowhere (the band’s third recorded album and first major studio album, also nominated for a Grammy) was met with critical acclaim and went on to achieve multi-platinum status. The group’s subsequent major effort, This Time Around showcased the brothers’ considerable talent and artistic growth, receiving wide critical acclaim for its bluesy/classic-rock and soulful pop harmonies. The album failed to repeat the commercial success of Middle of Nowhere however, only achieving gold status. The album has since been considered a trend-setter and precursor for such acts as Michelle Branch, John Mayer, Avril Lavigne, Paramore, Vanessa Carlton and Eisley.
After many promotional and artistic conflicts with Island/Def Jam, Hanson split from the label in 2003 and started their own label, 3CG Records. In 2004, they released their third major studio album, Underneath, independently. The album reached #1 on Billboard’s Independent Album Chart and has since been noted as one of the biggest-selling independent albums of all time. The single “Penny & Me” reached #2 on Billboard’s Top 200. Like This Time Around, Underneath was well-received and well-reviewed for its more mature classic rock/pop sound.
The band continues to have a dedicated fan base and Internet presence, and recently completed a tour of college campuses, showing a documentary, Strong Enough to Break, made about their struggle to form their own label and release Underneath. The documentary http://www.last.fm/music/Hanson was also shown at the Hollywood Film Festival in October 2006.
A live album (The Best of Hanson; Live & Electric), recorded in Melbourne on the Australian leg of the “Underneath: Live & Electric” tour was released in October 2005.
The band released of their fourth major studio album, The Walk in North America on July 24th, 2007. They have released a second documentary, titled Taking The Walk as a continuation of their struggles and successes of writing, recording and producing their own album. After spending some time in Africa, Hanson released a single “Great Divide” for World AIDS Day, with 100% of the download proceeds going to the Perinatal HIV Unit at Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital in Soweto, South Africa.
During the making of The Walk, Hanson made a trip to Africa to record some tracks with the African Children's Choir. They were so inspired by their experiences there that they have since teamed up with TOMS Shoes--a california-based company who donates a pair of shoes for each pair sold to a child in poverty who does not have shoes.
In order to raise awareness for this charity and the daily things we take for granted, as well as small and impactful ways to help those in need, Hanson organizes one mile barefoot walks before each of their shows. As of 10/30/08 they have walked a total of 100 miles together with their fans. They are donating $1 for each person who walks with them to one of 5 causes to help children and monthers in Africa battling AIDS and poverty. The fans are invited to organize their own walks and Hanson will also donate a dollar to whatever cause they are walking for. The goal is to Walk around the World and as of 2/4/2009 have walked 19,236 miles and have 5,666 to go.

Hanson released their 5th studio album entitled "Shout It Out" on June 8, 2010. Leading up to this release they performed all of their albums at 5 sold out shows at the Gramercy Theater in New York City.
2. Hanson is a funk rock band formed in 1973 by reggae musician Junior Marvin. The group released two albums - "Now Hear This" (1973) and "Magic Dragon" (1974) before disbanding in 1974.
she's got time
Hanson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She knew I meant to make her mine
'cause' there'll be heat in this seduction
I didn't read between the lines
She's got time to lose your mind
I know her looks are meant to kill
Her wits so sharp, so shrill
She'll bang you slowly with her mind
She's got time to blow your mind
Chorus: She'll keep on making it rough
Gotta get up, she can't stop
Getting it tough, she'll keep spinning you around (round, round)
She'll keep on making it rough
Gotta get up, she can't stop
Getting it tough, you'll keep banging em' down (down, down)
She says the words you want to hear
She's been rehearsing every line
The love you need to have to lead me
Forget your moves, she'll rob you blind
She's got time to lose your mind
Her body moves to gain corruption
Her tender touch like none before
Feel that twist so deep seduction
To steal that halo off your door
She's got time to lose your mind
Chorus: She'll keep on making it rough
Gotta get up, she can't stop
Getting it tough, she'll keep spinning you around(round, round)
She'll keep on making it rough
Gotta get up, she can't stop
Getting it tough, you'll keep banging em' down (down, down)
(undestinguishable rap section)
So her looks are meant to kill
That is not what she realized
Her wits so sharp, so shrill
She'll bang you slowly with her mind
She's got time, to blow your mind..
Chorus x3
The song "She's Got Time" by Hanson appears to be describing a seductive woman who knows exactly what she wants and how to get it. The lyrics suggest that she is very skilled at manipulating men and that she enjoys the thrill of the chase. While the singer is clearly smitten with her, he also seems to be aware of her manipulative nature, as he mentions that she "will rob you blind" and "bang you slowly with her mind." Despite this, he remains entranced by her and seems to be unable to resist her charms.
The chorus of the song, which is repeated several times throughout, emphasizes the idea that this woman is not going to stop until she gets what she wants. She's going to keep making it rough and spinning you around, no matter what you do. The lyrics also suggest that she has been rehearsing her lines and knows exactly what to say to win over her targets.
Overall, the song paints a picture of a powerful, alluring, and somewhat dangerous woman who is able to wrap men around her finger with ease. While the singer is clearly intrigued by her, there's a sense that he's also a bit wary of her and knows that she's not to be taken lightly.

Pacts with the Devil are a common thread running through Rock Music. With Pagey going so far as to buy Mr Crowley's mansion so he could fully connect with the Source. Which is why he plays a 'Source'erer in TSRtS.
But I myself would go so far as to assert that even Satan himself has his limits. You'd have to do unspeakable things to young children to infuse them with this much wisdom at their prepubescent age.
So yes, I was being quite serious.
Kinda like how Marie Osmond sang about those Paper Roses at age 12.
What does a 12 year old know about romantic love, let alone seeing through a facade to call out 'imitation love'.
My best guess is that both she and them had someone penning the words for them.
And I severely doubt that any young child would choose the Pick of Destiny route. Even Pagey was quite innocent when he was Hanson's age. You can see this when he appeared on the Huw Weldon show at age 13, and the host asked him what he wanted to do with his life. Jimmy's answer? He said he wanted to be a biological researcher so that he could find a cure for cancer.
Countless millions have since died of cancer. But we got Led Zeppelin instead. I'd say that was a fair trade. Heh.

Oh, Oh
Oh, oh
Oh, yeah
You have so many relationships in this life
Only one or two will last
You go through all the pain and strife
You turn your back and they're gone so fast
Oh yeah
And they're gone so fast, yeah
Oh so hold on to the ones who really care
In the end they'll be the only one's there
When you get old and start losing your hair
Can you tell me who will still care?
Can you tell me who will still care?
Oh, Oh care

This is probably one of the most pure feel-good songs ever.
I miss the 90s.
@mikeoster7004
Caleb Is JFK it's got a sad message about relationships coming & going (I just read an article n my sister used to love these guys) but it's still MIST DEFINITELY a feel good song, regardless.
@ramasaswijaya1126
Yes i miss the 90s
@ChadQuick270W
#1 for four weeks in the spring of 1997. I still have the 45.
@sophiapetrillo5803
Us and the 162 likes.
Btw I am #162
@kimberlys8422
So do I.
I remember when I got "Middle of Nowhere" when I was 7 for Xmas.
Spice Girls and Aqua was also a big deal.
@janmenzinga
If you realise that they were 11, 13 and 16 years old when this song came out, it's obvious that they were way ahead of their time and super creative.
@samueljohnson2465
And they started writing it at an even younger age.
@abigailcaraballo2623
Real talent
@anotheryoutube4635
If you're an actual musician and you watch this now, it's very clear that they weren't the musicians playing the music on this song.
