London, England (2002 – 2005)

Busted was a pop rock band originating from London, England that consisted of James Bourne, Matt Willis and Charlie Simpson.

Their debut single, “What I Go To School For” was released in 2002 and charted at #3. The album Busted followed in September 2002. November 2003 saw the release of their second album A Present For Everyone. Both albums charted at #2 in the UK. A live album, A Ticket for Everyone was released in November 2004.

The band split in January 2005 after Charlie decided to focus on his rock band Fightstar. Matt went on to release a solo album and has since become a Television presenter with his wife. James founded the short-lived band Son Of Dork before focusing on songwriting.

    Obviously I like all of their tracks in a nostalgic way but maintain that their slower ones (like "Sleeping With The Light On" and "3am" are genuinely really good songs.

    I suppose the reality is that Charlie Simpson did best out of the group, even if their fans didn't want him to.

    Always hated Charlie tbh Lmao he's a traitor. And did anyone else notice, in their videos, whilst Matt and James made silly faces whilst they sang, Charlie just looked bored like he just wanted it to end. Even in photos
