New Backstreet Boys Video Debuts, But is a Disappointment.


Everyone's favorite boy band from the 1990's, The Backstreet Boys, are back! There new single, "Straight to my Heart" began to hit radios a few weeks ago. It is OK, but not great, especially when compared to some of the Backstreet Boys older songs such as "Shape of my Heart" or "The One". The video however, is hideous. Apparently The Backstreet Boys didn't get the memo that the 1990's are over. The dance moves and the bubblegum pop music is from another time period that is now lost in the past. The only thing modern about this video is the new vampire trend, but even that doesn't make sense. Vampires are usually thought of being dark, depressing, and gothicy. It would make much more sense to see vampires in a Marilyn Manson music video than a Backstreet Boys video. It's just weird. I don't think the Backstreet Boys are headed towards the right path for a comeback at all. I think their new album will be a failure.

Here's the new video:

What do you think of the song/video? Will you buy their new album?
