Guilty Pleasure

Princes of Pop from 1993 (from left to right): Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Kevin Richardson, AJ McLean and Brian Littrell


This may sound pretty cliché and pretty outdated as well but I can't help denying the truth.
January 2011 was when it all began, the Backstreet Boys had announced a concert in Brazil (a longtime since their last visit in 2009) and despite the fact that I knew at max TWO songs by them and that I thought they were the most outdated species in the music business from the 21st Century, I thought to myself: Why not take a risk? Who knows what the future may bring you.
So I set up with a friend of mine willing to take the challenge and we both bought tickets to their concert for February 2011.
My reaction after the show? Let's say when I went to school the next day, I was hoarser than a mother screaming during labor pains, Brian Littrell is now my potential husband and I am probably the only human being out of all my friends on Facebook that likes their fan page!
I understand that people have their own musical style and have different opinions, but what I learned from this episode is that you shouldn't judge people before you know them properly (in this case, the Backstreet Boys). Why do people have this judgement about boy bands being so tacky? One thing is of you having you're very own opinion about music that is totally respectful since everyone is different. However, those people with a different opinion should respect the opinion of others who do like a certain band/musician.
All in all, I think everyone should take a risk and get out of their comfort zone and try new things, because that's what gets you in high spirits and it's a new way of introducing yourself to new stuff that might make a huge impact in your life!
For those of you that are looking forward on trying different things, here are a few songs by The Backstreet Boys that I really like in particular:


1) PDA






2) Hey Mr. DJ






3) I Want It That Way






4) Straight Through My Heart






5) Everybody (Backstreet's Back)






6) I'll Never Break Your Heart






7) Don't Turn Off The Lights (Feat. New Kids On The Block)






8) As Long As You Love Me






9) Quit Playing Games With My Heart





Enjooooy :)
