11-year-old me had a great, sweaty time tho. It felt like it had to be 9000° outside even tho it was probably only like 80° and the sun had already gone down by the time the show started. He surprised me with tickets to the Backstreet’s Back Tour at Lakewood Amphitheater. This song will always hold a special place in my heart because it is the only BSB song my father liked. They’ll love you through all of your character flaws.
As long as you love me backstreet release serial#
What have we learned? That BSB doesn’t care if you’re a serial killer on par with Ted Bundy or that you’ve scammed old men out of their pensions. Y’all don’t know how much I wish they would bring the countermelodies back. They were a thing of beauty and no one did them like BSB. I think this is the first single where they actually did it and then it became a thing all through Millennium and Black & Blue. There’s another small music break and the final chorus that I love because… COUNTERMELODY! Yeah they do the countermelody thing with the chorus and it’s awesome. This is why we do not take lessons in love from the Backstreet Boys. They really do not care what this woman has done in the past. And it sounds like maybe how she keeps you under her love spell is through her eyes. What have you tried to hide, Brian? Everyone has already come to the conclusion that you’re blinded by this girl and no amount of telling you that she’s no good will keep you from her. Alexander James is nowhere to be heard on this song and according to him, learned the words the day of the video shoot. But since he had strep throat the day it was recorded, Brian got that honor. Legend has it that AJ was supposed to sing this part of the song. What you did and where you’re coming from I’ve tried to hide it so that no one knows This one is a little longer than the one in the radio version of the song. Like Max Martin was writing this and remembered he needed a second verse.Īnother chorus and a music break.
What I have always wondered about this verse is why is it so much shorter than the first verse? It’s like an afterthought almost. Her kisses must turn them deaf, blind, and stupid. I want to know what this girl has done to have them hypnotized like this. Anyway, we get into some Bonnie and Clyde type stuff here. Why? Because as long as she loves him why should he care? See what I mean about not thinking about the lyrics for too long? That’s a common thing when it comes to late 90s pop songs.Įvery little thing that you have said and doneĭoesn’t really matter if you’re on the runįeels like it’s deep within you, Brian? That’s the knife he planted in your stomach, bruh. Just be a terrible human being in general and he’d just shrug it off.
As long as you love me backstreet release skin#
She could eat babies, shoot puppies, and skin kittens and he’d be like meh. A laundry list worth of crime and he wouldn’t care. Homegirl could be an ax murderer and they’d wave it off because she loves them. Ok, Max Martin.Īnd this is where after hearing this song a million times one stops and realizes exactly what they’re saying. So obviously those ppl know something about this girl he’s pining over that he doesn’t. I find it funny he says that after saying ppl think he’s blind. Nick is ready to risk it all because he’s LONELY. This is also one of the many BSB songs where you probably shouldn’t think about the lyrics for too long.Īlthough loneliness has always been a friend of mineĪnd how you got me blind is still a mysteryĭon’t care what is written in your history So unless you bought the US debut when it first came out, you didn’t get this version. When they reissued the US debut in 1998 so that it included Everybody, they put the “finished” version on that album. They released the “finished” version to the radio and it’s the one used in the video. The story goes that it’s a demo and was “accidentally” put on the first pressings of BB/US debut but it wasn’t the version Max Martin wanted. It has slightly different instrumentation and vocals. This version I have here is the original version.
One of BSB’s signature songs that was on Backstreet’s Back and the US debutas the second single from both. And now a classic: As Long As You Love Me.
