This video 'The Boys In The Band' brings back so many wonderful boy band memories! It makes me happy!

Does anyone else love a boy band?

nkotb, take that, one direction, westlife, back street boys, jls to name a few.

I was a hardcore Backstreet Boys fan between the ages of 12-14! Like, obsessed. Convinced I was going to marry Nick Carter 😂

Seeing them live in June and I'm so bloody excited!

I used to love NKOTB and saw them at Manchester G-Mex. I loved Donnie Wahlberg and Joe McIntyre

I preffered girl bands but I definitely realised I was gay when I was 12 and watched this NSync video on The Box and first saw Justin Timberlake 😱 😍😍😍

I love boy bands. DP nearly died laughing when we watched the Neverland documentary and I was very in awe at Wade, N-sync’s choreographer

That brightened up my afternoon, thank you! I love boybands, had posters of nearly all of them between the early-mid 90s and early 00s.

YANBU When I read the title of this, I instantly thought about that video. It made me so happy. And I find myself singing the song a lot too.

I adored NKOTB. Wish I could go on the Annual Cruise. Loved Joey back then, still love him now.

I'm still a big fan of 1D, can't wait until they reform.
I paid a ridiculous amount to see Harry Styles in 2017 for my 40th and loved every second.

Eliza9917 · 11/03/2019 15:58

Nkotb was my first concert Grin

I was an East17 girl rather than take that, and Blur instead of Oasis.

TakeThatBack · 11/03/2019 16:40

bluetit101 where are the backstreet boys playing? I didn't realise they were back on tour!

I still love a boy band... shame their all in their 50's now, lol.

crazyhouse123 · 11/03/2019 18:00

Oh I was an E17 girl (saw them at the radio one road show along with right said fred!) Loved second coming of Take That! And 1D! And now BTS! Oh now I'm going to have to set up a very loud playlist as I cook!

GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat · 11/03/2019 18:04

I could have written your post bluetit

Can’t wait!

Tink2007 · 11/03/2019 18:10

Can’t wait for the Backstreet Boys concert in June. I was proper hardcore! 🤣🤣 I was definitely marrying Nick Carter - he just didn’t know it 🤣🤣

Keewee27 · 11/03/2019 18:14

Loved and still love nkotb. I've seen them twice, both late in their time. They were amazing both times. I still listen to Joe and Danny's solo albums in the car!
Lol @Crappygilmore, actually Jonathan is the only nk who's 50!!
Loved the video, it's the first time I've seen it!

PossiblyPFB · 11/03/2019 18:22

Also how great does Debbie Gibson look!?! Haven’t seen her recently and I think she’s even more beautiful now than in her 80s heyday when I looked up to her as a child! Smile

TanquerayTickles · 11/03/2019 18:25

Massive TT fan here, I'm going to see them 5 times on their upcoming greatest hits tour and I'm not even sorry Grin

TakeThatBack · 11/03/2019 18:27

PossiblyPFB yes she looks amazing! I wonder how old she is now?

The teacher at the start of the video is Lance Bass from nsync! He's looking good too!

Keewee27 · 11/03/2019 18:31

@Takethatback Debbie Gibson is 48. The same age as Jordan Knight.
She does look amazing, I didn't recognise her!

PossiblyPFB · 11/03/2019 18:32

Wiki tells me she’s 48....What a pretty woman- and her hook on the song is actually the thing that stays with me the most!

TakeThatBack · 11/03/2019 20:35

It's so catchy! A great tribute to all the boy bands out there! Well done NKOTB.

Long may boy bands continue!!

Nick Carter was my first love.

Enjoy your concerts ladies!

I wonder if NKOTB will come to the UK again?!
