TORONTO (Reuters Life!) - It's been nearly 15 years and they're no longer
youngsters, but the Backstreet Boys are still around and have just released a
new album.
The youngest of the four-member group, Nick Carter, joined the group at the
age of 12 and is now turning 28. Their sixth album, "Unbreakable", is near
the top of the Billboard 200 charts.
"We've been so blessed to have so many fans worldwide that are still keeping
us around," said band-member Howie Dorough, who is getting married next month.
Members of the group have kept busy putting out solo albums, managing other
artists and doing charity work.
"We're giving each other space to spread our wings out a little bit and do
some individual stuff," said Dorough.
It's a lesson learned after the group took a break between 2002 and 2004.
Dorough spoke to Reuters about the long road to "Unbreakable" and the lessons
the band have learned.
Q: What goes through your mind when you think about the last 15 years?
當你經歷這15年時,你有了什麼成長?
A: "It's really hard to even put in words, exactly how my life has changed in
the last 15 years. It's been an unbelievable rollercoaster ride. Lots of
highs, a couple of lows here and there. I'd say 95 percent all highs. My 20s
with the guys have probably been some of the best years of my life."
其實很難用言語表示我的生活在這15年有了什麼樣的轉變,就像坐雲霄飛車一樣
有很多高潮也有一些低潮.... 大概有95%是高潮吧!
和新好男孩度過20幾歲的這些年應該是我這一生最美好的時光!
Q: What are some of the insights you've gained?
你在這其中獲得了什麼省思 ?
A: "We were going so fast, and we were taking things a little bit for
granted, even taking each other for granted. And that's when we took our
break. I think that break made us realize and appreciate what we really had.
Don't get me wrong, I think it was a well needed break, because I think we
were going on a path of eventually destruction -- we'd just been busy for
nine years solid. We needed that time away for us to find our individuality
again."
我們成功的太快.而且我們把這些當成理所當然,甚至我們把彼此都當成理所當然
所以當我們休息時,我想這讓我們了解到我們應該感謝我們曾經有的
別誤會我的意思...我認為這樣的休息是好的,我們總有一天會到了各自做自己的事的時刻
我們已經忙了九年! 我們都需要這樣的休息去找回我們各自地獨立性
Q: Did you think you'd be back together again?
你認為你真的想要再次回來嗎
A: "I always thought in my gut we were going to be back together ... (but) we
were all at five different places. There was definitely the thought in the
back of my head, 'Wow, this might be the last time I see these guys again.'
我總是覺得我們將會再回來的,但畢竟我們在五個不同的地方,
所以有時候我一定會有另外一種想法:"哇!說不定這是我最後一次看到其他團員了!"
Q: What's different about "Unbreakable" from your last album "Never Gone"?
UNBREAKABLE和NEVER GONE的不同在哪?
A: "This time around, we made a conscious decision to go back to what people
know us best for, which is our live entertaining shows, vocal harmonies,
good, easy pop listening songs, up-tempo songs."
這次的專輯我們要呈現的是大家以往所認識的我們,我們所擅長的,像是和聲技巧
一些簡單的流行歌曲 跟UP-TEMPO的歌曲
Q: Kevin Richardson left the group last year. What was it like doing
"Unbreakable" without him?
KEVIN去年離團了,沒有他參予的這張專輯有什麼感覺?
A: "We've been together for 15 years. We're like family. To me it almost
feels like the first son going off to college, but the rest of the family
household still keeps on moving on. Don't get me wrong, it definitely felt
weird going into the studio making the record."
我們已經相處了15年,就像家人一樣,對我來說這就像是第一個從大學畢業的小孩
不過其他的家人還是繼續的過活...別誤會了..
當然 這樣進錄音室錄音的感覺還是有點詭異
Q: Has Kevin hinted whether he'll come back?
KEVIN有曾經暗示過他會不會回來嗎
A: "He actually alluded to the fact that it's not something he'd ever want to
close the door on and he hopes that we weren't closing the door on him. We
totally said definitely the doors would always be open."
他當然不把這樣的離開當成永遠的.他希望我們不會對他關起這扇門
而當然 我們絕對不會的
Q: Any tour plans in the works?
有任何巡演的消息嗎
A: "We're kicking off our tour next year. We're doing Feb 16 and 17 starting
off in Tokyo, Japan, and the plan is to take the tour all around the world."
我們將在明年開唱 目前2/16.17會在日本東京,我們計畫這次是一個全球性的巡演

每一個所謂的工作都一樣 每一種解釋都顯的煩人
也許有一種掌聲 讓你可以不必勉強擠出笑容來回報
因為你所做的本身 就值得被世界回報
如果是 就不必在乎這個世界這麼多判斷的其中一種了
