Backstreet Boys Section

Miss Reynold's Love 😍

Nobody can ever talk about music without thinking about the Backstreet Boys. They are one of the most loved and iconic music artists in the world. In the 90s, boybands were very popular and the Backstreet Boys were one of the first and are still the BIGGEST and most popular boyband in the world today!

There are 5 members and all are still part of the band today (Brian, Howie, Kevin, AJ and Nick). The band was formed in 1993 when Nick the youngest member was only 13 and they continue to perform and write songs. (The band is 28 years old)

When it all started

Miss Reynolds however has only loved the Backstreet Boys since 1997 when she used to listen to the radio on her way to school and heard their song 'Quit Playing Games With My Heart' and ever since she has been a fan.

First song

'We've Got it Goin On' was their first single and was released in 1996.

UK No.1

'I Want it That Way' was the only UK number 1 song the band have had. Although, this song received a record in USA for spending 12 weeks at number 1 and received recognition as it set the record for the longest song at number one ever in America!

Latest Album 2019

'Chances' was one of the songs to be released from their latest album. This is one of Miss Reynolds favourite and she loves singing to it at the top of her voice in her car :)

The Backstreet Boys love performing live and are often touring and performing live on TV, look out for them as they have been on The Voice, Strictly Come Dancing and America's Got Talent to name a few . Most recently, they had a 2 year live show on the stage in Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas where people travelled from all over the world to see them. Performing or even being asked to have a Las Vegas residency is a great honour and not all music artist are given the great opportunity and experience. This honour shows the popularity of their music and the growing fans they have all over the world. Miss Reynolds unfortunately did not get to see them in Las Vegas but saw them in June 2019 at The Hydro in Glasgow and she is very excited for their next tour!

The Favourite

'Incomplete' is Miss Reynolds favourite Backstreet Boys song which is another belter for the car!
