Backstreet Boys |
In a time where boy bands are actually a thing of the 90s,
there seems to be one boy, or now men, band that has withstood the test of time
-
The Backstreet Boys. With a new album due next month, the Backstreet Boys
amped up the anticipation by premiering the title track and first single,
"
In a World Like This." The song is uptempo in the same way as the
1997 single "As Long As You Love Me," and is about discovering love
when it's needed most. "In a world like this / Where some back down / I
know we're gonna make it," the reunited fivesome croon in the song's
chorus. "In a time like this when love's 'round/ I know we got to take
it." The Backstreet Boys are celebrating 20 years in the music industry
with the release of In a World Like This on 30 July and will begin touring with
DJ Pauly D and Jesse McCartney on 2 August. Of course, these guys aren't the
same youngsters we fell in love with 20 years ago. Said 41-year-old Kevin
Richardson, "We've grown up, our fans have grown up. Now four of us have
kids, four of us are married, Nick’s engaged, we have a lot more to talk about
now." But don't think that we're not going to see those old fun BSB dance
moves we watched at their concerts, screaming while tears streamed down our
faces. Oh, wait. Was that just me? AJ said, "We're bringing back old
choreography, stuff that people haven't seen in probably 15 years, from the hat
routine to the original 'As Long As You Love Me' mic routine."
