Released in 2005, this was the lead single from the boys’ comeback album Never Gone. Backstreet Boys have four shows in South Africa The song was a last minute addition to their debut album, as Clive Calder, the chairman of their label, heard the song and called Jive Records president Barry Weiss, who then contacted their manager. This was the boys’ second ever single, and it remains their best-selling single in the UK, despite not reaching number one. This was the second single from their Millennium album, which is one of the best-selling albums of all time with 30 million copies sold. It tells the story of a man who is unfaithful to his girlfriend, after meeting another woman in a nightclub and leaves the club with her instead of going home to his girlfriend (whom he calls to make up an excuse for being late home). This track saw the boys act rather irresponsible, but how can you mad at the Backstreet Boys with a song as catchy as this? The love song was a hit around the world, including a number 8 in the UK in 1996.

This was arguably the song that introduced the band on the world stage. The song was the lead single to their Black & Blue album, and gave them another UK top five hit. The sixth and final single from Backstreet’s Back, this pop ballad saw the group have their biggest UK hit at the time, peaking at number two in 1998.
