LOL excellent article! If nothing else, maybe this will bring a new appreciation of how much vocal talent
BSB have.

I loved that review!  I think if people just got over the whole boyband image, they'd find that they actually love a lot of BSB's songs.

I love that review LMAO. It just helps reconfirm that I'm not biased in my thinking. That it's true that BSB songs, melodies, and performances are just outright better.

That review was awesome. I'll be the first to admit I'm a total boyband lover, (with everything from NKOTB to Jonas Brothers on my iPod) but in listening to that NKOTBSB CD it's true that BSB's single choices are just a little more mature than NKOTB's. There's a reason BSB have always been my favourites and their vocal talents along with how seriously they take their craft is definitely a big part of it. It really shows through in their songs and performances, and I'm glad people are starting to take note of that.

I'm also a boyband lover and have BSB, NKOTB, Westlife, Take That, Blue, Five, Boyzone on my iPod, but out of all of them, BSB are the best!

LMFAO at that review!  I love how even people who are objective, who aren't fans of either group, prefer the Backstreet Boys.  Just playing the NKOTBSB CD, I find that the BSB songs, which I've heard a bazillion times, sound fresh and new and wonderful in between the NKOTB songs.  They're just BETTER!  The music is better, the lyrics are better, the melodies are better, and the singing is obviously better.

And that's not the only one I've read either, there was another one where the author made the comparison with an analogy to gum. He said the New Kids songs were like Bubble Yum, where they're good for like a second and then they lose flavor, whereas the boys were like EXTRA; more sophisticated and the songs are good forever. hehe

I said that the moment the track list came out for that album, without even hearing it, the boys just had better songs in every aspect. There's still something really good about them years later, whereas the New Kids stuff just sounds dated.

I have never been a boyband lover. BSB is the only 'boyband' I like and I don't really consider them a boyband at all. Just like I don't consider Boyz to Men a boyband either.
