1. I am thankful because I've followed the boys since 1997 (ever since I first saw them on TV doing a killer performance of We've got it going on) and they've released great material ever since. I am thankful because their voices are soothing to my soul and I've had the opertunity to meet the guys several times and even saw them with my baby girl in my tummy being 9 months pregnant during the NKOTBSB tour. I am thankful because they are always nice to their fans and amazing to talk to and they try to take time for each and every one of us. I am grateful because they continue to make more music (even though it takes ages sometimes!) and give us more of what we want. So many other bands and groups would have quit a long time ago, but Backstreet boys stick to their promise and for this I honor them greatly. I am thankful because they even let some fans up on stage on their last tour and this was without a doubt one of the best experiences of my life (thank you for the plectrum Nick!) combined with the time I met AJ by chance out shopping in Stockholm, Sweden before his solo show. I have never had a brain blackout while being conscious before that surprise meeting so it was a fun, but unusual experiance for me at the same time.

    I am thankful that some songs will forever be in my heart, like "I wanna be with you", "Noone else comes close", "Take care" and their unreleased song "On without you" *look it up on Youtube, it should have been released!* which always makes me feel better if I feel down. I am thankful that the boys let us fans go on cruises with them (even though I personally get sea-sick very easily and would prefere a residence somewhere warm ON LAND! *take notes boys and team*) and that their bodyguards and team are always trying their best to have patience with us fans. This is the kind of ingredients that lasts. This is the kind of stuff you make legends out of.
    THANK YOU FOR BEING IN OUR LIVES!

  2. I am very very picky about the music I listen to, especially now that I am a father. I am thankful for you because you are clean and your music is just fun to listen to. I have been a fan since I was 12 years old and could remember lyrics. Your music has also gotten me through some tough times. I remember in Iraq whenever I felt my anxiety building I would put my headphones on, turn my music at loud and listen to BSBs "Never Gone" and just for that moment, I forgot where I was. All in all, I am just thankful to be a lifelong fan of you guys in general.

  3. I am thankful for the teenage buzz that I experienced with BSB during the 90s'. Being a fan has stopped never since and the next concert tickets will be bought in about 35 minutes as soon as the ticket sales is open.

  4. I am thankful for the Backstreet Boys because they have impacted my life so much. My sister is a HUGE fan of BSB since she was a teenager, and she tells me all these stories of the music she would listen to and it was all yours. She told me that you guys are her favorite band and now that she is all grown up, her opinion hasn't changed. I'm doing this for her because I love her and I want her to be happy and you guys make her light up. She goes through a roller coaster of emotions that no other music does to her. No other band impacts her like you guys. If I win, the prizes will go to both of us, but the good stuff will go to her because she deserves it. She is my role model and she is the reason I also can enjoy your music. Thank you for making my sister and me happy.

  5. I am thankful for the Backstreet Boys because their undeniable influence to the music industry and pop culture is life changing! for over two decades members of BSB dedicated themselves to an absurd worth ethic in an effort to bringing joy and peace to millions of people around the world. the transparency within every lyric, the precision with every step and genuine interaction with every fan resonates with every member of the BSB Army. these men managed to captivate our hears in the 90s and carefully maintained it every since. personally, I'm thankful for BSB because their music motivated me to be courageous during some of the lowest points of my life. their lyrics (and beautiful examples of holy matrimony) inspired me to believe in love stories, even when the earlier chapters may have been filled with despair. watching their interviews allowed me to see their genuine appreciation for their art and witness their dedication to their craft, which only reassures me that dreams are always capable of being fulfilled - no matter the delay. more so, I appreciate BSB for creating a comfortable space for a poor little black girl to sing and dance without care after discovering "what makes you different, makes you beautiful." I found strength through my circumstances and BSB has been there to provide the soundtrack to my life along the way - for that, I'm grateful...THANK YOU BACKSTREET BOYS!

  6. I am thankful for BSB because they are always there for me.

    I have been a fan since I am 5 years old when my mom turned up the volume on her car radio hearing the boys singing Quit Playing Games With My Heart. I asked her who they were and the rest is history. My mom and I always had a very strong bond but when we were both listening to BSB it made that bond even stronger. I had my favorite (Kevin) and she had her favorite (AJ) but we always were smiling while singing along. The song The Perfect Fan really hit home for us and still brings tears to my eyes when I hear it. My mom had won me tickets on the radio to see them on their Millennium tour and it was such an amazing experience that I will cherish forever. I am thankful for BSB because their music will always make me remember those times with my mom, who sadly passed away in January 2017. I am truly grateful to them and their music for bringing a smile to my face and excitement to my life. Thank you BSB for 25 years of amazing music. Love you guys forever

  7. Why am I greatful for BSB?

    Im greatful for the talent, songs to help through rough patches. In fact BSB helped me get through a recent patch where my brother had another mental health episode. I would put BSB on my ipod before work, Then at home I would watch the Show Em What You're Made Of doco and concert.

    I have been a fan since 1996. Not until 2016 a re assergance appeared. I love to also sing your songs whenever my friends and I do Kareoke.

    Thanks BSB! Hope to see you all in New Zealand. Never been to a concert of yours before.

  8. I am thankful for BSB as I fell in love with and their music the first time I saw them on a roadshow tour in the UK 25 years ago.
    Since then I have grown up with their music and have loved listening to them grow and develop as artists.
    Each album release has always arrived at the right time in my life when I either needed something to celebrate or console and no matter what’s been going on there is always at least one song I can relate to. I can remember exactly where I was and what was happening in my life at each album release
    Their music never fails to make me smile or anyone else around me. They definitely got it going on for years!
    I would love to be able to say thank you for making me a happier person!
    Thanks boys - Sarah xx

  9. I am thankful for BSB because they have kept me going...

    I don't think I will be but I'd like to become November's soldier....the last 11 years I've been a mum to 3 beautiful children, twins Matthew and Megan who are 11 and Amelia-Grace who's 7, but it's also been the hardest 11 years of the last 34 I've been alive! Matthew was born severally disabled with brain damage, epilepsy, autism and more. 4 years later Amelia was born with Heart disease... At this point I didn't think life could could get any worse, go forward a year later and Megan the other twin was born with Acute Lymphoblastic leukaemia, all 3 of my precious babies very poorly.... Megs was 5 when she was diagnosed, started chemotherapy on her 6th birthday. No child should have to deal with such pain, no parent should have to see their kid go through that pain, I was dealing with massive heartache, I thought I was going to loose them. My son will always be disabled, my daughter Amelia has been recently cleared, and as for Megs well she has been in remission since October 2015 I'm so proud of them all...each one a shoulder and a fighter..... Since all of this I've had to keep the the pain together, but recently I have dealt with severe depression, picking up all the pieces over the decade...... I'm getting better, with the help of family, and friends and the love of your music and guidance through prayer I will pick myself up..... Yesterday my councillor told me to to think about me...thank you for keeping me going throughout the difficult dark days, I will always be thankful and appreciative. So putting myself first for the very first time ever.... I will like to stand up tall and say... I am a soldier and I would like to be your November soldier... Love Katie... Xx

  10. The biggest reason why I am thankful for the Backstreet Boys is that BSB brings my sister and I closer. We are 4 years apart (she is younger) , we were never really "friends" and with the last 6 years with her addiction, it has been hard to be her sister, but we try every day and I am thankful that she is still here, ( a few months ago she tried committing suicide). We do take one day at a time because tomorrow is never promised. So I am thankful that BSB keeps us together. She's really the one who should be the BSB Soldier but our family should be too as addiction affects everyone who is around the addict. Thank you BSB for the 25 years of amazing music; keep it coming! Love forever!
