The group I remember being my first favorite group has got to be the Backstreet Boys. The singing, the dancing, Nick Carter's dreamy looks... what's not to love? You weren't cool in 4th grade unless you listened to the Backstreet Boys. Millennium was definitely their best album, five words: "I Want It That Way". There is a reason that sugary pop gem was chosen as the #3 best song of the 1990s. "I Want It That Way" kicks the crap out of "Bye Bye Bye" or "Hit Me Baby, One More Time". In the battle for the hearts of kids in the 1990s the Backstreet Boys reigned supreme. I admit I went to concerts of N'sync, Britney Spears, and the Backstreet Boys in my youth (for the record, I was invited to all three of them), but I find Backstreet Boys the least shameful. As you can tell from my little online ipod my music taste is significantly different now, the pictures on my bulletin board have been replaced with new bands (and new hot lead singers). But whenever "I Want It That Way" comes on, I'll be singing along, and I'm sure just about anyone my age will as well. I might even have that song on my ipod...

As much as I loved the Backstreet Boys, I gotta admitt, I was more of an *NSYNC fan.
i have to agree with liz, although i knew the lyrics to many of the backstreet boys songs, not only do i know the lyrics to nsync but i also know their dance moves :D
