In 1999, Australia rejected the idea of becoming a republic, Pokémon took over the world, Ricky Martin struck out on his own, the Euro was created as Europe’s single currency, and we were all terrified Y2K would plunge us all into an apocalypse.
But pop culture maniacs will forever remember 1999 as the year in which the greatest rivalry in pop culture reached its peak. The Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC, both riding enormous waves of success in the late ‘90s, divided music fans across the globe.

These songs were the heart of the 1990s and 2000s.....they were all over the radio and the media.
These music are still on the radio.
They both suck.
If one is into those types of bands, South Korea’s BTS (and several others) are far superior performers.
Thanks for posting, I can’t tell you how long this question has kept me up at night.
I put them with the Beatles if that tells you anything.....
...for teenage girls.
I can see them appealing to the teeny-bopper set along with Justin Bieber. But for anyone this side of puberty it’s a tossup.
That’s like asking your favorite color of Peeps candy. Or if you’d prefer to gouge out your eyes or stick ice picks in your ears. It’s called Hobson’s Choice ...
me neither. Believe me, its a good thing.
You’ll hear it at one of your family member’s wedding, especially if it is a daughter, sister, niece, etc.
They love ballads like this.
This ballad was the song of the 2000s and 2010s.
Believe me. Believe me.

Loser keeps Bieber
Never heard any of the songs you linked to. Not my style and no radio stations I listen to would probably play them. Different strokes and all that. What I listen to would be like KBCO on IHeartRadio or The Spectrum on Sirius XM.
They’re all Backdoor Boys.
Oh yeah, I remember now. I’m too busy hitting on the bridesmaids and getting hammered so i rarely pay attention to the muzak..
Chris Rock:
“Why the hell would you wanna be a Backstreet Boy? They from the back streets. Wooo, I’m scared of that neighborhood! I wonder who lives on the front street – Big Bird?”
“Didn’t you see New Kids on the Block? Don’t you know how this movie’s gonna end?”
no kardashians in the news today???
I remember Dennis Miller’s rant about New Kids On The Block:
Oh sure, they may sing, “Oh Oh Oooh Oh Oh....Oh Oh Oh Oh”, but they don’t really mean it.
