7:10 Glad you pick up the Matrix reference, the video was shot circa 2000 when Matrix trilogy and leather suits were all the rage. The video is not easy to digest (since they are not singing) but the song production top-tier, top 10 BSB song for sure.
This period in time this was released is very interesting musically. The boyband/Britney sound was starting to get sidelined by Hip Hop and R&B...much edgier sounds. And at the same time, you had the famous "Latin boom" with Ricky Martin, Enrique Iglesias, Shakira ect. I always felt like this album, and specially this song, tried to engulf everything that was popular at that moment in time...and it actually worked. They're on the record saying it's their least creatively satisfying album, but their producers definitely outdid themselves with this track IMO. I thought about these things as a 10 year old.
I love me some BSB, thanks! I've never actually seen this video before, but I remember buying the Black & Blue album back in the day. It was a different sound from their usual ballads, and I loved it. Still sounds good.
I think I told you about this one. As a kid, I was confused how all 5 of them were cheating on the same girl… I kept thinking… that’s one real popular girl…
i love your accent lol and terms, hi from NY... and the call is one of my fave songs cause its so different, though i think its hysterical they are in a Japanese supermarket as an American band
First guy was AJ McLean (the one in the sunglasses) then he changed into Brian Littrell who was the second guy and running through the store then he changed into Nick Carter and Nick runs to Howie Dorough's hotel room and Howie was the one who jumped out of the car and then Nick turns into Kevin Richardson. I thought I'd help you with who was who. I know you know them as the backstreet boys but don't know who is who. This is a cool song. It was actually the next one I'd planned to give you but Alex beat me to it.
This song gives me EXO - MAMA vibes, especially the way it swings between choral part and slighly rock part. although MAMA was more intense in swinging between the two extremes.
1:20 One of my favorite songs of theirs I know I probably say that about all of them. But This was just unique and different especially the music video era
6:45 (yes I’m spamming your song because I can’t believe you’re “reacting” to this one) 🤣🤣 but that’s where I nearly yelled at the TV “don’t kill him, he’s too pretty!!” Yes I’m a “nob” I know
There is a story that this song was about some of the CRAZY girl fans back then and how they would follow them everywhere and possibly some people who might have wanted to cause them harm. Just putting that out there.
@@infin8reactionsAJ has said he did coccaine for the first time during this video shoot. He has been struggling with recovery for the last 20+ years. He has always been very open and honest about his addiction issues. Recently he was on the Frosted Tips podcast hosted by Lance Bass from NSYNC talking about his recovery. Check it out if you have time!
YAAAAS IVE BEEN WAITING I THOUGHT I GOT IGNORED LOLOOL This was a really interesting time for BSB, they had a really successful r&b-ish remix come out (its also on their channel if you wanna check it out too) and they had it played out in all different kinds of clubs, a lot of different music listeners got into it!! I love this song, man! It's so different, and the video is always fun to watch. Thank you for doing this one I really appreciate it :D fun fact: Brian, the 2nd BSB member to show up after AJ 'died' or whathaveyou, refused to have a verse in this song because he thought it would be disrespectful to his wife. I do believe he does sing harmonies with the other during the chorus and such, though lol

When I was in middle school, my sisters and I choreographed a dance to this song for our family Christmas party. XD
The Best BSB song, athypical rythm, mix of sounds, strange tempos. A masterpiece.

I love all their songs really...no 1 boy band for me...tq
The Backstreet Boys are back! If you're interested in hearing new music from them, Chances and No Place are fantastic!

Each of them portray a man playing with the Devil, there is purgatory , fire and brimstone from the heavens, and then hell of Judgement Day.

Still funny this were our life at the start of the 2000s.

I don’t like this song specially when I found out AJ was battling his demons behind the scenes but I’m glad he made it out ❤
It's always good when people come out the other side after battling demons 🙂 glad he's sorted

This IS 20 year old video c'mon
what difference does it make how old the song and video is? As long as people still enjoy it that's what matters. There's no time limit on music.

Aaron was ostracized from his family. They treated him like shit. Including Nick.
No, don't bring that lie here. He threatened to kill Nick's wife and unborn child at the time. Please, don't.
