THROWBACK THURSDAY: Backstreet Boys - We've Got It Goin' On!

Last night I was watching a programme about Lou Pearlman. You're probably wondering who he is. Lou Pearlman managed big groups like N*Sync, O-Town, Take Five and today's THROWBACK THURSDAY's, Backstreet Boys.

Watching the documentary on the man that made them and robbed them reminded me of how great this group was. Pearlman never paid the boys the money they earned through all those tours, gigs, merchandise, sales and royalties. Backstreet Boys couldn't do much about it but to come out of their contract to their manager by paying him 30,000 US Dollars. You can see what Lou Pearlman looks like in this video your about to watch. Look for the big fat guy in the studio when Backstreet Boys get on their knee's praying (how ironic right?).

Formed in 1993. The band consisted of AJ, Nick, Brian, Howie and Kevin. With 'We've Got It Goin' On' being their first single, they took to the charts like speeding bullets. Many years later, they were crowned as 'Pops biggest boy band in the world' with hits such as 'Everybody', 'I Want It That Way' and 'As Long As You Love Me' just to name a few.

Here's what I thought was R&B in my younger days. Love this song.
