While the title might be grossly clich? the content screams what's true:
Backstreet's back.
The Backstreet Boys released their newest album "Unbreakable" on Oct. 30.
One third of the world was ecstatic, another third had no idea the Boys
were still making music, and the rest of the world flat out didn't care.
But regardless of who thinks what, the boy band pioneers of the late 90s are
still alive and kicking with their fifth studio album.
Unlike their official comeback album, 2005's "Never Gone," which was a
combination of rock tunes and heart-wrenching ballads, this album finds the
Boys getting back into the groove of the classic pop songs that made them
famous. Think back to the days of "I Want It That Way" and "The Call," only
now the Boys are now very much men and a member down.
Kevin Richardson left the group some months ago to pursue other interests.
It's sad to say, but Richardson will be missed more for his presence in the
group and with fans than his vocal contribution.
With Richardson gone, Howie Dorough, the falsetto of the group, has gotten
the opportunity to make his presence known. It isn't a very big opportunity,
though, as the majority of the vocals are still dominated by Brian Littrell,
A.J. McLean, and Nick Carter, who belts it out hardcore over his fellow
bandmates on a majority of the songs, even on the choruses. But, hey, if you
got it, flaunt it. Carter definitely has it and more.
The Boys and their producers got smart on this album, turning many
potentially sappy love songs into future upbeat club hits. Nearly every song
on "Unbreakable" is Top 40 material and ready for radio, especially
"Everything But Mine" and "Any Other Way." "In Pieces" sounds like the newest
song from The Fray and a few tracks are especially catchy. "One In a Million"
and "Panic" deserve to spin in Philadelphia's hottest clubs.
The first time I listen to an album, I listen for music. The second time, my
ear is tuned for lyrics. Some of the tracks, like "Downpour," surprised me
because the lyrics were truly poetic and thought -provoking. "Unsuspecting
Sunday Afternoon" struck me as being very Beatles-esque. You can really hear
the parallels in the lines, "The one you hate to love is made for you" and
"Last night I saw the fireworks/ The kind of pain that never hurts." You
wouldn't expect this from a band that doesn't write their own songs, right?
Well, guess what-the Backstreet Boys do write their own songs. They wrote
about half of the tracks on this album. It was a shock to see that JC Chasez,
a former member of rival boy band *NSYNC, had collaborated with McLean on a
song. "Unbreakable" is packed with many awesome surprises. "Treat Me Right"
has a pretty happy beat, but there's a moment in the pre-chorus where the
tone changes and becomes, in a word, scary. To put it simply, this is the
part in the song where the sun went behind a cloud. I think it's the most
ingenious thing I've heard out of pop music in a long time.

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
