I wonder if the Backstreet Boys will ever score another hit song. Their last hit was their comeback single "Incomplete" in 2005. I also can't believe the never had a #1 single in their heyday. They were huge.

They just won't call it quits, will they? They're like Menudo, but people give a s**t.
Anyway, the cover is horrible. Conceptually it's great, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired. Not that anyone gives a crap about covers these days, but hey, I'm a designer so...

Forgot to put that in my post. Oh lol...Yeah it's just bad luck on their part as that was around the time where labels weren't releasing any more cd singles which ended up hurting it on the Hot 100. "I Want It That Way" only reached #6 on the Hot 100 despite it hitting #1 on Hot 100 Airplay. If they'd release a CD single it most definitely would've hit #1. Same goes for "As Long As You Love Me" & "Show Me The Meaning of Being Lonely".

I feel like a lot of people were "hurt" by the weird billboard/single stuff happening at that time. Like, didn't Britney and Nsync "only" have 1 or 2 Billboard #1s despite all three of these artists being unbelievably massive in every way? I guess at the time labels didn't give a shit about a Billboard #1 when you were selling 10s of millions of cds though.

At first I didn't like the song cause of the chorus, but now I really like it. It's catchy. Hope they finally get that recent hit they're looking for. With Z100 adding it, it's a good step.

It's a great song, I don't know if it's strong enough to bring them back, but I'm praying to Jehovah. Always loved BSB.

Both "I Want It That Way" & "Show Me The Meaning of Being Lonely" hit #1 on pop radio. They also had 4 consecutive singles from their debut album go Top 5. I meant on the Hot 100. Forgot to put that in my post. The lack of a commercially released cd single is why they don't have #1s on the Hot 100. If they had released a cd single in the US for "I Want it That Way", it would have went #1 on the Hot 100. Same reason why, for example, Britney's "Oops" did not go #1 on the H100, etc. Jive focused on albums sales.

Doesn't change the fact that I'm still surprised they didn't get one. Both Britney Spears and N Sync each got a #1 single during the same time period and they were both on Jive as well.

Definitely their best song in a very, very long time. I think they actually might have a chance at a hit here.

Britney had a physical single release for her debut single in late 1998 and Nsync had a cd single release for "Its Gonna Be Me" "I Want It That Way" topped the hot 100 airplay charts for like 10 weeks or more during the same time period so yeah they did have a no.1 on hot 100.

Not sure why though you are surprised. At the time, you basically needed a physical single in stores in the USA in order to get #1. As backstreetdino pointed out, the two #1s you referenced had a cd single. For BSB, "Quit Playing Games" had a cd single and reached #2 on the Hot 100. That may have been the closest one for them. I want to say "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)" had cd single but it was a maxi single so more expensive on the kiddies wallets. Anyway, I usually enjoy most Backstreet Boys singles. Not really feeling this one - it lacks that good hook that Max Martin songs usually contain.

Yeah, I Want It That Way not being a #1 hit is insanity.
