I agree. They all bring their unique voice and when they come together, they blend perfectly. As far as the meaning of the song goes, it can be filed under one of those songs that doesn't have a deep message. It's almost like Phil Collins, 'In The Air Tonight' in a way. Even the guys of the group would lightly refer to this song and ask, ' I want 'what', that way??'. Good reactions man, and by the way, cool hair! If I had hair, I'd want it that way.
Plus backstreet boys are good musician, produce their own label, song writer, editing the lyric and arransement, pick the songs which one will be the next singles, they had control to their own music, and good at playing instruments: guitar(acoustic or electric), keyboard, piano, drums, bass..and kevin (the tall one with black hair) is a dj. Thats why for few year backstreet boys can only release 1 album bc they had extra work but thats worth it bc the songs had quality
Brian and Nick (the first 2 that sang, the 2 blonde guys) are the lead singers, they do most of the vocals, then AJ (the one in the hat) does a good part of the singing as well, he has the strongest voice. The other 2 guys (Kevin and Howie) sing as well, but they have smaller solos.
Great reaction vid! Also the song is pretty much about nothing in a weird way. Max Martin wrote it. I believe he calls it "melodic math" lol. The label tried to change it because they said it didn't make sense, but it just didn't sound as good. They all agreed even though it didn't necessarily make sense, it just worked for some reason. Honestly that makes the song even better to me for some reason lol
I"m with Lyfe, here, I'm confused about what exactly this song is about. It's a little confusing. It says, 'I want it that way'. What does that mean? What 'way' does the person want it? And the boys keep saying, 'I never want to hear you say, 'I want it that way'. What does that mean?
Don't try to look a logic for the song. It is "that way" or the other "way" Like seriously. It doesn't make much sense and they know xD but they just knew it felt right and that's why they want with "that way" It's a catchy song that showcases how good they sing. It can be interpreted as a love song, but at the same time like a confession or just whatever else lol
A couple of years ago I rented a convertible while visiting L.A. I blasted this song as I drove through West Hollywood. At every stop light people on the sidewalk started to sing along.
Check out Backstreet Boys song "Incomplete". They all have amazing voices! They've been together for 30 years come April with no signs of slowing down. They put on an Awesome concert!
Plz can you also react to Backstreet boys - I'll never break your heart. & Backstreet boys - All i have to give Backstreet boys - Anywhere for you All three are great songs by them.
Backstreet boys don’t even know what it’s about. You should listen to the original unreleased version. Not as good but makes sense more, I think lol 😂😂
