This is a good CD. Not the Backstreet Boy's best album, but by no means bad. It has quite a few good songs, such as my favorite, the ever famous Larger Than Life and the runner up, I want it that way. In between, it has many other good songs that show love or hate for a girl they had a relationship with, all with perfect beats and very interesting lyrics. It has a couple of bad songs, though, such as Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely and The Perfect Fan, both of which I find wimpy and sorta irritating, and that's why it gets 4 stars instead of five, but it is great nonetheless & if you like boy bands and/or love songs, you should buy this. It's for all ages, too.

This album was made in the year of 1999.
I will review each of the songs.
1. Larger than life 100\100 great song
2. I want it that way 100\100 my favorite song on the album
3. Show me the meaning of being lonely 100\100 concentrating on Howie's sister who died in 1998 , Kevin's father who died in the year of 1991 , Brian's heart diesease ( witch is much better) A.J.'S parents who divorced, and Nick they just made up one for Nick's part for the music video.

This definitely NOT JOSEPH. I am his oldest DAUGHTER. (my dad hates BSB.)

Even though this about 5 years later, this CD is still going strong with millions and millions of Backstreet Fans. I LOVE THIS CD TO DEATH (I'm listening to it as I write this!). And now I will review each song.

1. Larger Than Life: 10/10. This song is great! Great rhythm and a great songs for the fans! Brian Littrell (B-Rok) co-wrote this song!

2. I Want It That Way: 10/10. Classic song for BSB. Catchy rythm and GREAT vocals by Brian.

3. Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely: 100/10! One of my favorite songs on the album. It's sad, but it's beautiful at the same time. The Spanish Guitar sends chills down your spine and sort of brings a warmth into your heart.

4. It's Gotta Be You: 100/10! Another one of my favorite songs on the album. GREAT vocals by AJ and STUNNING vocals by Brian, especially, when he hits the "yeah!" towards the end of the song.

5. I Need You Tonight: ONE MILLION/10! My second favorite song on the album. Nick's voice is sooooo beautiful. The music is beautiful too and it's such a sweet song. It used to be called "Heaven In Your Eyes" and that was never put on a CD But performed at concerts by Nick. Definitely worth repeating again and again and . . . well. . . you get the idea.

6. Don't Want You Back: 10/10. Good break up song.

7. Don't Wanna Lose You Now: 100/10! Good song. Nick Carter did the additional vocal arrangements. Excellent choice. (lol)

8. The One: 10/10. Great beat reminds me of an uptempo version of "I'll Never Break Your Heart."

9. Back To Your Heart: 100/10! Beautiful song which Kevin co-wrote. I love it. The music is so pretty and the lyrics are heartfelt.

10. Spanish Eyes: 100/10! This song grew on me. The lyrics are very pretty and the music is nice.

11. No One Else Comes Close: ONE MILLION/10! This is my favorite song on the album. It's so beautiful. My aunt told me that BSB remade it. GREAT COVER. The music is beautiful and so are AJ and Nick's vocals. My favorite part is Nick's verse (go figure . . . lol).

12. The Perfect Fan: 100/10! This song is GREAT! Brian co-wrote it. The VOCALS ARE BEAUTIFUL and the choir sounds great!!!!

In conclusion, people BUY THIS CD!!!!!! You won't regret a penny.

P.S. To the spotlight reviewer who wrote "I'm Glad Their Fifteen Minutes Of Fame Are Up", BSB has been around for YEARS. And now they're back with their album "Never Gone".

So, you're a LOSER.
