I'm just going to put it simply. The New Kids On The Block faded quick because they couldn't stand eachother and like the article said they called girls "Dirty Dogs". When ur audience is ALL girls, you dont call them dogs! Now, NSync may fad because of their thousands and thousands lawsuits right now. If they can get their album out, maybe they can still stay in the runnings. The Backstreet Boys on the other hand have nothing against them, except for the fans. Why? Kevin is 28, he has a girlfriend he's been with forever and in a few years, he is going to want to start a family. Some fans won't like this and stop buying the albums and magazines. Same goes with Brian and the rest of the guys. If they can keep their fans after they get married and settle down, then in my opinion, they deserve EVERYTHING they get.

Every Menudo, New Kids on the Block, New Edition or Spice Girls has its moment. And then the moment is gone." I just wanted to comment on that real quick...notice how they only mentioned the true 'fads' of the moment...they failed to mention acts such as BoyzIIMen who too started out as a poppish, 'boy-band' act. And just quickly scanning thru the most highly regarded artists of all time, there's Madonna. Come on, when she first came, do NOT even try to tell me they didn't think she was just a fad that would fade quickly...I mean, how she acted, her songs, her attitude - she musta been defined as a thing of the times. But NOW, she's a goddess! So there's my two cents on that.. Okay, and then, there's the whole backlash of the boyband thang. In all honesty, I wish all those boybands would go away too. They're just getting annoying now, with them trying to highlight one special, unique thing about themselves to differentiate themselves from the boyband grouping. But I wouldn't be surprised that when the boybands do fade, that Backstreet Boys will be still around. I hate to sound like a same-o teenybopper, but they truly are the more highly regarded, respected, and accepted "boyband" today. And if anyone, THEY'RE the ones that everyone is saying they can "stand to listen to," or that has staying power. And maybe, if God willing, n sync might stick around as well. But those are the only two that I'd bet on, despite the fact that I hate n sync. Everyone knows that Backstreet Boys are the true singers, and n sync are the dancers - and well, n sync will really have to get down hard on those knees. I know boybands come and go - NKOTB, New Edition, Menudo - but there is always that one that comes around once in a blue moon. I'm sorry that this ran so long, and that was only TWO of my points that I discussed! Trust me, I could say more, but I just wanted to mention a couple other things. My radio station has been playing Christmas Time!! ahhh!! that's so cool! and last nite, around one or two, they played Show Me The Meaning!! whoo-hoo! ...and lastly, i have over a HUNDRED HOURS of Backstreet Boys appearances, american and foreign, if anyone is interested. :o) Submitted by Kate from Hobart Tas Australia Date: Thu Dec 23 15:17:30 1999 I only got throught the first few paragraphs and that is the biggest piece of crap I have ever read. Yay girls, yeah not. And 'NSync are cooling off fast', of course they are, everyone finally realised they suck. Now that I have been nice and rude, please visit our site: BSB: It's a Backstreet Thing! at www.sealteamsix.com/backstreet We update all the time and have NEW news on Nick and Mandy. Submitted by Adriana from Floresville Texas United States Date: Thu Dec 23 15:15:33 1999 Well, well, well. It looks like these critics seem to know that they can predict the future. So maybe they will become uncool, or maybe they'll be like Madonna who in my opinion is "ageless". Nevertheless, "little miss editor" seems to think that she is the expert but I remember a lot of critics that said Madonna wouldn't last and look at her now. "Growing with your audience" is not impossible and I wish the BSb good luck.

Submitted by Rachel from Hill Town USA Date: Thu Dec 23 14:49:32 1999 Long live BSB! Submitted by Drê from São Paulo Brasil Date: Thu Dec 23 14:38:43 1999 Some people have to learn look around... There are a lot of Boys Band, but Backstreet Boys are diferent of them. They are the only one that REALLY SING, and you can just listen their cds and you'll feel good! You don't need look at them to love their music. I think they could be considerate like Boys II Men! Listen at AJ's voice! That's the best voice I've ever heard! Brian's voice... so sweet! Howie's voice is so powerful! Nick's voice is so wonderfull! And Kevin's voice is so sexy and hot! And their songs are just wonderfull. And they're learning more and more... And say that just girls like them. It's a BIG mistache! I went to their concert and there were a LOT of boys not just young people... There were 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 years old! You have to LISTEN them, and admit that they really deserve success! And THEY ARE ARTISTS AND NEED TO BE RESPECTED! And as long they trusth in theirselfs and keep singing, the people who don't wanna see it, will acept and see that they have TRUTH TALENTS... Submitted by MystsDragon from Tallahassee FL USA Date: Thu Dec 23 14:36:08 1999 While I do not totally agree that the BSB days are numbered, the fact remains that no band ever stays together forever. Look how many times the Rolling Stones have broken up, and got back together over the decades. Aerosmith who used to be my all time favorite band, besides the old group Heart aka Heart Mongers, have had many times in their years of records to have slump times. I think that if the BSB keep changing with the times, and letting their music mature with their audience, then they will always be around, even when the young teenagers grow up. The music that they sing is not like other groups, allthough a lot would love to claim that N'sync is a total rip off of the BSB. The BSB have their own brand of music, and others have seen it work, and have decided that they can copy that. It seems to me that because I am older, that my tastes which don't change that much anymore. With this in mind..I could end up liking the BSB for the rest of my life. If everyone had this attitude towards the BSB and keeping the BSB Pride alive, the BSB will be the best band for years to come. http://www.mysteriouswolf.com/bsb/ First Page - Previous - Next - Last - Add Entry - Other Topics - Message Boards - Exit Page 36 of 50
