I’m thankful for BSB giving me an escape while growing up in a tough environment, for always bringing a smile to my face and most importantly for all of the amazing friendships I’ve made through the years! Friendships that have lasted 20 years along with all of the new friends I’ve made on the cruises and recent shows!
I’m thankful for the boys for giving me the chance to escape my dark space with their music, stories, love, everything!
I am thankful for BSB first and foremost for creating a true bonding experience for me and my 5 sisters. Being the oldest of 6 girls was never easy-we fought over EVERYTHING, except BSB. When we would put on their music, we would create our own choreography, obsess over learning every lyric, and study each individual BSB member so we could put on a full concert for our parents (I was always the Brian!) At one point we even made our own concert signs that we imagined holding up in a sea of BSB fans, but in reality we were just standing in front of our TV. I wish I had kept them! Growing up Backstreet will forever be my favorite childhood memory, that we were lucky enough to have follow us into our adulthood. I could ramble for days with other reasons I personally am thankful for BSB, but that is by far my favorite. Here’s to another 25!
There are countless reasons I'm thankful for BSB! To name just a few... For 20 years they have been what calms me in a crisis, brought me joy when life got stressful, and brought me the most amazing friendships. They have given me cherished memories with my mom and grandmother. Their shows/events are something we do as a family and to be able to laugh, dance, sing and even happy cry together is priceless! Most importantly, I'm thankful they love us just as much as we love them!
I am thankful for BSB because of their songs. They songs are just so amazing and ever time I hear it, it just put a smile on my face. I have my kids, sisters, niece and nephew listening to their music. I have a few favorite BSB songs but my favorite two songs are "Time" and "Drowning". If I am in my feeling I would just put BSB on and then I would be happy. Thank you BSB for everything.
I’m thankful for my children, I’m blessed enough to have happy, healthy kids, a roof over me head and a fiancé that loves me. And of course BSB!!!
Happy memories with best friends during school dances, road trips, endless summer nights, and fun sleepovers growing up...THAT is why I’m most thankful for BSB. Whenever a BSB song comes on, you can’t help but bust out in dance and groove to the music!! I’m so grateful for their catchy beats, their sweet harmonies, relatable lyrics...basically everything their music is. THANK YOU, BACKSTREET BOYS!! Can’t wait to see you in Vegas this weekend as I celebrate my birthday!! :)
I am thankful for BSB because their music has gotten me through some tough times. And their music has given me amazing once in lifetime experiences. I have made amazing friendships. My friends and I have gone on cruises together. We have gone to Vegas together. I will always cherish these moments. Thank you BSB!
There are many reasons why I’m thankful for BSB. I have been to 2 concerts so far in Vegas and stand in awe each time. I’m already planning to attend again next year and this time, meet BSB!! 22 years ago, when I was 7, I met my best friend who was also team BSB. We are still besties to this day and are still just as dedicated BSB fans.
My early childhood was the best years of my life when I was raised by my Nana and BSB helped me hold onto those positive memories. I still have VCR tapes with all the BSB concerts and interviews that were once on MTV, and remember when my walls were covered in posters.
When I was a teenager, my life took an unexpected turn. I went through so much with my drug addicted, mentally ill mother. Because of her addiction and illness she was not able to care for my 6 younger siblings which left me in that role and eventually we were all separated by Child Protective Services. All of us suffered so much abuse in various forms, and I had to cope with it somehow. Music was always my outlet. Anytime I was feeling upset, sad, mad, scared, I listened to BSB which always brought me back to all the positive memories and times of my earlier childhood in those moments.
Today, I am a Social Worker who advocates for kids who were in a situation just like me. And when my kids that I work with are struggling and ask me how I coped with my own trauma as a teenager, I shared with them my passion for music that took me to a happier place and helped me escape from dark thoughts. And when I tell them I love BSB and play BSB songs, they usually don’t know what I’m talking about lol but I tell them, BSB is the Justin Bieber of my generation, but much better :)
Over the years, through different stages and relationships (both losses and gains) I have related to BSB’s songs. There is not a song by BSB that I don’t know or that doesn’t mean something to me.
Recently, I lost my Nana who meant the world to me. When she passed, I listened to The Perfect Fan over and over remembering how amazing she was and how perfect that song is. Thank you BSB for just being the amazing, talented, humble and kind hearted men that you are!!! You have no idea how much you have impacted my life. I will be so thankful to get the chance to meet you next year :)
To go with my answer, (Hopefully it's okay to add on since I have no clue how to edit or delete comments) No matter how I was feeling, BSB always put a smile on my face and would help me forget why I was angry or upset etc and I could always count on them for a smile and laughs (via youtube several years ago), and they were and are literally my God given light to my darkness and they were the one (no pun intended... or was it? lol) I always ran to, turned to, and sought comfort in/from. They even taught me through music that what makes me different, makes me beautiful ;), which comes in about my being bullied- I was called ugly, freak of nature etc etc, and I believed I was until BSB (more specifically Howie since he wrote the song) came out with Black & Blue and I listened to What Makes U Different (Makes U Beautiful) several times and I had fallen in love with the song, and I totally was not expecting BSB let alone Howie D to be my hero during that time. I was so far into the darkness, I was honestly wanting to change just to be liked and accepted once and for all and make the bullying stop in that way, but, BSB saved me from the bullies and from myself as in changing. I was never depressed or suicidal so none of the things that goes with that. I was more hurt, sad, frustrated rather than depressed or suicidal and honestly, i didn't know what depression and suicide was at the time other than suicide being a blend of different sodas which I learned from my younger sister. I just took the bullying you could say and just coped the only way I knew how- BSB therapy. I still turn to them to this day on my bad days and they still never fail to make me smile and laugh, especially with thier crazy and silly antics! I see BSB as a gift from God and I will always hold them in a special place in my heart <3
