i'm a fan of the backstreet boys for the plain and simple fact that their music is great, and their voices are amazing. i've been a fan for 11 years now, and i must say they have never failed to dissapoint me. if you asked me this question when i was younger, the answer would have been simple, because theyre all gorgeous!! well quite simply things have changed. dont get me wrong, theyre all pretty fit looking guys and if they came knocking at my door i deff wouldnt say no, but as i've gotten older, (and more maturer, maybe, ok maybe not...) i find the music so much more fulfilling to listen to. i find a connection to their songs, be it from a memory or a dream or a wish for the future, and i listen and smile. admitedly i listen to their older stuff and think, "god i remember doing this to that...." and make myself feel so old, and sound like my mother!! ha but they always manage to make me smile when i need too, make me cry when i need to and make me happy because of the memories they have given me. that is why i'm still a fan and will continue to be for as long as my memories and the cd's will let me!!
