The
five piece American pop vocal group was formed in 1993 and consists of members A.J. McLean, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter,
Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell.
The
band shot to fame with their self-titled debut album, Backstreet Boys in 1996. Following the success of their
first album, the Backstreet Boys released their second international album Backstreet’s
Back in 1997. Singles from
this album include “Everybody
(Backstreet’s Back)”, “As Long As You Love Me” and “All I Have To Give”.
The single “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)” and “All I Have To Give” peaked on
the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at no. 4 and no. 5 respectively.
The
then teenage heartthrobs not only won the hearts of many with the success of
their first two albums but rose to even greater heights and superstardom with
their third album Millennium in 1999. Singles from this album include “Larger Than Life” which peaked on the
U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at no. 25, “I Want It That Way” which peaked at no. 1 on
both the U.S. Billboard Top 40 Tracks and the UK Singles Chart, and “Show Me
The Meaning Of Being Lonely” which peaked at no. 6 on the U.S. Billboard Top
100.
The
Backstreet Boys released a fourth album, Black and Blue in 2000 as a follow up album to Millennium and the most popular single from this album is “Shape Of
My Heart” which peaked on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at no. 9. They’ve sold
over 130,000 million records worldwide, making them the best selling boy band
in the world.
The
group took a two year break before releasing a comeback album Never Gone in 2005. After successfully
completing their Never Gone Tour in
2006, band member Kevin Richardson, left the group to pursue a solo career in
singing, modelling, and acting.
Nevertheless,
the Backstreet Boys continued promotions as a four piece vocal group and
released two albums, Unbreakable in
2007 and This Is Us in 2009. In 2012,
the group made fans worldwide happy when they announced that Richardson had
rejoined the Backstreet Boys permanently.
