Four Backstreet Boys songs to cure any heartache
The Backstreet Boys remain one of the world’s most loved boy bands, despite the fact they are more men than boys now. The group is currently working on their ninth studio album, which will reportedly be released before May 2016. Here are their four best songs when it comes to curing a broken heart.
Stage One: Confusion
"I Want It That Way"
Get into your feelings with the group’s 1999 hit single. The song reached number one in more than 20 countries, and was nominated for three Grammy awards. Just like the lyrics to this song, confusion is the first stage of a heartbreak. One minute you’re texting your ex, “you are my fire, the one desire’, and the next you’re replying, “Tell me why, ain't nothin' but a heartache. Tell me why, ain't nothin' but a mistake”.
Stage Two: Reality sets in
"Quit Playing Games With My Heart"
Once you get over the conflicting stage, you finally come to your senses and realise you were being played all along. “Even in my heart I see, you're not being true to me. Deep within my soul I feel. Nothing's like it used to be…quit playing games with my heart.”
Stage Three: Loneliness
“Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely”
Now that you have finally come to your senses, and realised that he/she is not the one, loneliness suddenly hits you. These lyrics will help you have one last good cry to get it all off your chest.
Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with?
There's nowhere to run
I have no place to go
Surrender my heart, body, and soul
How can it be
You're asking me
To feel the things, you never show
Stage Four: Bye, Felicia
“Get Another Boyfriend”
After being cooped up in your bedroom feeling miserable for days, your friends stop by to remind you that Backstreet Boys made the perfect song to get over your no good ex. So say “bye, Felicia” to your old flame with the best song to end all your heartbreak.
Listen, I mean it
There's nothing that he's worthy of
He's just another playa',
Playing in the name of love
I've seen enough, now this must come to an end
Get another boyfriend
