About BUSTED
Busted is an English pop-punk band from Southend-on-Sea, Essex, consisting of James Bourne, Matt Willis, and Charlie Simpson. Busted's genre has been described as pop rock, pop-punk, and college rock. Formed in 2000, the band had four UK number-one singles, won two Brit Awards, released four studio albums, and sold over 5 million records worldwide. The band released the albums Busted in 2002 and A Present for Everyone in 2003 before disbanding in January 2005, persuading solo careers.
The band reunited in 2015, embarking on the Pigs Can Fly arena tour in May 2016, and released their third studio album, Night Driver, on 25 November 2016. On 26 October 2018, Busted announced their fourth album Half Way There, released on 1 February 2019, as well as a UK arena tour.
At the end of 2019, the band embarked on a hiatus to pursue solo projects yet again. This on and off again back came back in 2023, announcing their return for their 20-year anniversary, consisting of an upcoming album and tour.
Busted has spoken about various influences for their sound and songwriting including Robbie Williams, Green Day, Michael Jackson, and Blink-182. Simpson stated that the latter in particular was a 'big influence back in the day'. Bourne also stated that Third Eye Blind was a 'major influence' in the early days of the band. Upon announcing that Wheatus would be joining McBusted on tour in 2014, Willis stated that the band was a "massive Busted influence".

INCLUDES A NEW VERSION OF ‘YEAR 3000’ WITH JONAS BROTHERS WHICH IS OUT NOW!!
ALBUM HIGHLIGHTS PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED COLLABORATIONS INCLUDING JAMES ARTHUR, YOU ME AT SIX AND MCFLY
Having shared thrillingly reimagined 2.0 versions of ‘Loser Kid’ (with Simple Plan), ‘Meet You There’ (with Neck Deep), and ‘Crashed The Wedding’ (with All Time Low) as well as a new take on ‘MMMBop’ with Hanson, Busted will release their eagerly anticipated ‘Greatest Hits 2.0’ album on September 15th. The album is launched alongside another crowd-pleasing collab as Busted is joined by Jonas Brothers for a rejuvenated take on ‘Year 3000’.
‘Greatest Hits 2.0’ is a fresh take on the formats which collates newly recorded versions of all of Busted’s biggest hits, fan favorites, and live staples, while the album’s deluxe formats also feature a host of previously unreleased dream collaboration special guests with McFly, James Arthur, You Me At Six, The Vamps, Bowling For Soup, Dashboard Confessional, Deaf Havana, Wheatus and rising newcomer Charlotte Sands. All formats except for the vinyl also include a brand-new song titled ‘Good One’.
Busted said, “Year 3000 has been such a big part of the Busted journey for the last 20 years. The love that this song has just keeps growing, with the fans that were with us from the beginning and now a new generation. We were thrilled when the Jonas Brothers gave it a whole new lease of life over in the States back in 2006, so we are excited to share this new 2.0 version with them in 2023!”
The deluxe editions of ‘Greatest Hits 2.0’ open with the Busted x Jonas Brothers update on ‘Year 3000’. It’s a song that feels as if it has its own time-traveling twist, as the like-minded Transatlantic bands infuse it with a zesty bounce that somehow has even more youthful energy than it did back when it was first raced up the charts 20 (!) years ago.
The Jonas Brothers of course need no introduction. The trio have lit up stages and screens alike, and still remains hugely popular - as shown by their recent record ‘The Album’ hitting #3, the second highest UK album chart position to date. The brothers recorded their own version of ‘Year 3000’ back in 2006 and it remains one of their all-time most streamed tracks.
Jonas Brothers say, “We were so excited to collaborate with Busted to recreate one of their classics. ‘Year 3000’ is a timeless song, and we are thrilled to share it in a new, fresh way alongside the other collaborations they’ve done!”
‘Greatest Hits 2.0’ is now available to pre-order / pre-save here. In addition to standard digital and CD formats, it will also be available on red vinyl and black vinyl; as an expanded ‘Guest Features Edition’ CD; and as a cassette which is available exclusively via Busted’s official store.
The album will be released as Busted embarks upon a 26-date UK and Ireland arena tour. There will be ‘Greatest Hits 2.0’ signing sessions at the venue at select shows, or in some cities, signing sessions at nearby record stores. More details will be announced as they’re confirmed. Numerous shows on the tour have already sold out, with more than 260,000 ticket sales to date. The tour features Busted collaborators and ‘HMMBop’ legends Hanson at all dates from Birmingham (September 9th) onwards, plus New Hope Club and The Tyne.

Year 3000 Lyrics
One day when I came home at lunch time I heard a funny noise
Went out to the backyard to find out if it was one of those rowdy boys
Stood there was my neighbor called Peter and a Flux Capacitor
He told me he built a time machine
Like the one in a film I've seen
Yeah, yeah
He said, "I've been to the year 3000
Not much has changed but they lived underwater
And your great, great, great granddaughter
Is pretty fine"
(Is pretty fine)
He took me to the future in the flux thing and I saw everything
Boy bands and another one and another one and another one
Triple breasted women swim around town totally naked!
We drove around in a time machine
Like the one in a film I've seen
Yeah, yeah
He said, "I've been to the year 3000
Not much has changed but they lived underwater
(Not much has changed but they lived underwater)
And your great, great, great grand daughter
Is pretty fine"
(Is pretty fine)
I took a trip to the year 3000
This song had gone multi-platinum
Everybody brought our seventh album
It had outsold Micheal Jackson
I took a trip to the year 3000
This song had gone multi-platinum
Everybody brought our seventh album
Seventh album, seventh album
He told me he built a time machine
Like the one in a film I've seen
Yeah, yeah
He said, "I've been to the year 3000
Not much has changed but they lived underwater
And your great, great, great granddaughter
(And your great granddaughter)
Is pretty fine"
(She's pretty fine)
Oh, oh, yeah
He said, "I've been to the year 3000
(3000)
Not much has changed but they lived underwater
(Not much has changed but they lived underwater)
And your great, great, great granddaughter
(And your great granddaughter)
Is pretty fine"
He said, "I've been to the year 3000
Not much has changed but they lived underwater
(Not much has changed but they lived underwater, yeah)
And your great, great, great grand daughter
(And your great granddaughter)
She's pretty fine"
(She's pretty fine)
He said, "I've been to the year 3000
(I've been to the year 3000)
Not much has changed but they lived underwater
And your great, great, great grand daughter
Is pretty fine
