I found Kelly's to be a surprisingly new sound, hadn't heard a song before like hers desite all of the Avril comparisons, but "JWYTK" sounds like nothing new to me, the Backstreet Boys could've recorded that on their last album, maybe they should just stick to ballads, they don't have any rock in them at all, so why are they even trying, I think the whole point of this song from them was to try and say "We're not just a boyband." But let's face it, they always will be a boyband and nothing they do will get them away from that.

I find BSB's single a typical attempt at a boyband to do something "rockish." SYBG was different...I can't explain but it's just better. And I think the songs sound NOTHING alike.

Neither of the songs sound like rock to me. They sound like 80's synth-pop.

I think they sound alike, but Kelly did it with a more modern feel and a lot more spunk. Just because two songs sound similar does not mean they are exactly alike.

Or in much simpler terms, 80's music. :)

After watching the video a few more times, it isn't as bad as when I say it the first time....

Maybe the song wouldn't be doing as well as it is if the video had been generic. Even though the video is horrific, at least people are talking about it, which gives exposure to the song.

Not Bad. Much better than that "Incomplete" garbage.

I actually thought Incomplete was one of BSB's best songs to date...and this latest song doesn't even compare.

This is starting to tumble. I guess they should start thinking about their next single (if they're releasing another to CHR/Pop).

Now that this song is over, my station has started playing it as "hot new music". Nice work, guys!

This song deserved to not reach the top 20 for having a horrible video.

I still haven't seen the video...So sad, since everyone seems to have pretty strong opinions about it. I did see one small picture from part of it, and it did look scary.
I should also mention that Nick Carter is on our drug/alcohol poster we're making at school. For his DUI thing. The title (stolen from Tyrone Biggums) is "Drugs and Alkeehol Have Ruined My Life." Ha.

If the 2nd single does well in the world then I think the third will do too. I fear that in the US it's too late. Their world tour starts in the end of this month and that will probably go well for them.

I really thought it would have enough callout support from the female demographics to get it into the Top 10. I'm beginning to think the label didn't put enough into promotion of the song? At any rate, "I Still" is an awesome track....I hope it does well overseas. :)

Oh my, I saw the video yesterday and it made my stomach hurt. I can't believe it. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? And why was Nick scream-shouting words that wern't even loud or shouted...ugh...
I remember when they said they were gonna have more "rock" songs and I LOL'd. This video made me LOL again!

This video actually made me laugh out loud. It's soo beyond cheesy and bad. It's weird how Nick's eyes bulge when he sings his parts in the car.

Because Launch doesn't work with my wonderful internet.
