I am a self-proclaimed Backstreet Boys fan for life. And why wouldn't I be? The Backstreet Boys' songs are timeless. ...OK, fine, maybe they're a little dated, but I prefer to think they've just aged into fine pop music wine. They're not for everyone, but if you were a fan back in the day, you'll still love them now. In fact, I think listening to the Backstreet Boys can be downright therapeutic for anyone who grew up in the '90s. Their music instantly transports me back to the '90s and the early '00s when my hardest decisions involved whether I should decorate my school binder with photos of Kevin or Nick. Those truly were the best of times. These days, I get distracted by tons of other artists, and I bet you find yourself in a similar predicament.
Just because there's lots of amazing new music out there doesn't mean you have to ignore your Backstreet Boys feels though. In fact, why don't you listen to a little BSB right now?
But, there are so many songs to choose from, you say. Well, that's why I'm here! Instead of putting your BSB playlist on random and listening to whatever song comes up, I think you should consult the stars to tell you which Backstreet Boys song you should be listening to right now. Pretend you are checking your Seventeen horoscope all over again and let the Zodiac point you toward your melodic Backstreet Boys destiny.
Aries (March 21 - April 19): "I Want It That Way"
The Aries is proud and full of life, but when it comes to love, you can be just a tad dramatic. The melodramatic "I Want It That Way" will speak to your easily broken heart. This is your one true BSB song because loyalty from your loved ones is at the top of your list of most important things in life.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20): "I'll Never Break Your Heart"
As the most reliable sign of them all, you are all about showing your devotion. You are as rock solid as Nick Carter's voice, so queue this song up and bask in your strength of character and romantic side.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20): "Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely"
Geminis are not the most predictable people, but whether you are having an awesome day or a not-so-great one, listening to this anthem of missing someone you love is perfect for the twins sign.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22): "Show 'Em (What Your Made For)"
Yes, this is a new school BSB song, but Cancers are strong and emotional people and none of the classics fit them quite as perfectly as this song of self-reliance.
Leo (July 23 - August 22): "Larger Than Life"
You are a Leo, so let that strong personality roar. You truly are larger than life — go ahead and embrace it with a jam as powerful as you are.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22): "Get Down"
Take a break from your intellectual musings, and go for a song that is just straightforward fun. I know Virgos tend to go for highbrow entertainment, but "Get Down" is one of the most well-crafted BSB songs. Let yourself embrace the uber-danceable beats.
Libra (September 23 - October 22): "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)"
Libras are social butterflies, and this song will bring everyone to the dance floor (or your desk, if you work in a music-friendly environment).
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21): "As Long As You Love Me"
Hey, Scorpios, it's OK if you need plenty of affirmation when you are in a relationship. Just play your significant other this soulful BSB number and they will get the picture.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21): "We've Got It Goin' On"
You are energetic, a voracious traveler, and a total optimist. Dreary music has no place in the Sagittarius' life. You need to crank up the band's original single and seat dance like your life depends on it.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19): "Don't Want You Back"
Capricorns need a song as ambitious as they are. The Backstreet Boys were big on peppy dance numbers and soulful ballads, but they took a chance with this ruthless breakup song. It doesn't hurt that it is super catchy.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18): "I Need You Tonight"
If you are an affectionate Aquarius, then this sweet love song will hit you straight in the heart. Have some tissues on hand because it might just make you emotional.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20): "Shape Of My Heart"
As a Pisces, you have probably always loved the Backstreet Boys, and thanks to your gentle spirit, "Shape of My Heart" is your perfect song. It's an emotional, stirring anthem that fits your worldview perfectly.
What are you waiting for? Get thee to your music player and listen to your one true BSB song right now.
