How are the Backstreet Boys helping me through the Covid-19 quarantine? Playing the videos and songs are helping my daughters and I. We have pajama dance party sessions almost daily. In fact my youngest submitted a school assignment to her music teacher of her singing Chances. I've Always turned to your music to guide me through some difficult times with my PTSD. Life right now has been flipped for us all. And your music is part of the glue that is keeping this mama going. Lots of love????

Their participation in the iHeart Radio show was a very pleasant surprise! Aside from that, they have helped me through COVID 19 while I work from home. I teach 1st grade, so their music continues to be on while I teach from home :)

How are the Backstreet Boys helping you through the Covid-19 quarantine?

“As long as there’ll be music, we’ll be coming back again” ????
Music is therapeutic and provides an escape. Whether we’re stuck (safe) in our homes right now or working through this global pandemic, I think we all crave an escape. It’s expected that life will have ups and downs and be quite a ride but right now we’re treading and courting uncertainty and unknown. It’s a scary, strange time where the exchange of information keeps changing daily, almost hourly sometimes so I think more than ever we need comfort and something solid to hold onto.

We may not all be with our families and loved ones in these moments, but music is universal in soothing the soul and that’s how the Backstreet Boys are helping me through this Covid-19 quarantine. The Boys have been a constant in my life since childhood and provide a reassuring familiarity and safety.

I also follow them on social media and seeing them with their families safe and going through the quarantine motions provides the human connection and reminder that we all need and keeps us grounded. Their iHeartRadio performance was the perfect emphasis of social distancing and us all being alone but together through this (not to mention how awesome and talented it was that they were able to perform each of their parts from their homes and still give us an amazing performance).

They’re rightfully super stars but are so humble, down to earth, and genuine. They’re giving and thankful to fans doing live in-home performances and check-ins, thanking our essential workers and reminding everyone to be safe as well. They remind myself as well as us all that we are all in this together and will get through this, and there’s that hope and excitement that once the storm clears and the dust of Covid-19 settles, they’ll be back on the road comforting us with their music, familiar dance moves, and handsome faces

Being a fan for over 20 years and growing up with the Backstreet Boys music, they've helped me more than they will ever know throughout my life. Their music has always been an escape for me. Even to this day when I hear a BSB song come on the radio, doesn't matter what is going on, it just takes you back and fills your heart with so much happiness.

This time is no different. It's a very stressful time for EVERYONE. No one knows what the next day will bring...people are losing their jobs, scared for their families, dealing with so many issues. All that stuff is very real. But what I'm finding is even though it seems like the world is falling apart, you can't just focus on that. You will fall into a very dark hole. As hard as it may be right now, you need to try and focus on the good and try and find something positive in your life.

I'm finding once again that BSB is helping me with that. When they did the iheartradio living room concert I was bombarded with messages from people about that. And it was something to look forward to. A few minutes of your day but for those few minutes they performed, your heart was full and you did not think about anything else going on. And with the amount of messages I recieved about it, I know I wasn't the only one they had a positive effect on.

That concert definitely ignited the BSB spark within me and I do find myself turning on their songs while I'm heading to work to boost my mood and help me get through the day. It worked for me when I was 11 and it's still working for me at 34!

Through this quarantine I have been reaching out to the Boys to help me through the stress and uncertainty. The first real moment that stood out was the night of the iHeart Radio concert hosted by Elton John, this was the first real moment my partner saw how much I truly love them by my reactions. That really set the tone for me for the quarantine, they brought a sense of hope and security to me.

When I feel the anxiety piping up I reach for the external hard drive with all my BSB concert/cruise/event memories since 2008. Reliving the amazing times I have had seems to bring the anxiety down to a manageable level. In the last week I have set up my home office as I am lucky enough to continue working while supporting my staff who are on the front lines supporting individuals with developmental disabilities in group living situations. I have put some BSB memorabilia up to help me through my days and bring a smile to my face at a quick glance.

Despite all of this the real thing they have done to help is they have brought be closer to my BSB sisters. We continue to check in with each other more regularly. I am so grateful that BSB has brought these ladies into my life.

Without even knowing it these 5 guys have brought much calm to this storm for me and many others and for that I want to Thank you!
