We have a little boom-box at my work we listen to. Each of us have different tastes in music as well. Quite often we turn it to a "mix" station that plays enough different stuff to at least keep us from totally annoying each other. Of course, I am the only elitis there... Daemond is happy with radio rock/R&B (surprisingly for a black guy he loves bands like Green Day, Three Doors Down etc.) Tim likes the new rock and classic rock with a little country and Randy likes country and folk (though Randy is surprisingly well versed in many forms of music.) Anyway.... for the sake of sanity, we play the mix station quite often.
While listening to the "hit" station, I heard this ballad on several occasions that started off with a piano, then a wonderful soulful voice accompianing. Shortly after, an acoustic guitar and harmony voice joined in, as well as a little strings. Even some tasteful electric guitar accompanied in the chorus. Today (my day off,) while changing CDs in the van, I decided to check out the two rock stations and passed by a "hit" station and that song was on. It made me think to look that song up at home..... so I did. The beautiful, mature and stylish ballad was performed by none other than The Backstreet Boys. WTF ? No this isn't a joke thread. The song "Incomplete" was the song I was listening to for three wekks or so and is a new Backstreet Boys tune.
That is where "the end of the world" comes in. I figured, the rapture would be quite soon if I ever enjoyed a boy band song, but I think Jesus can chill out in heaven a little while longer. The BSB got their fifteen minutes of "true" musical fame is the way I see it. I won't be donning my Back Street Boys tee-shirt at this years Prog Power USA by any means, but I applaud them for actually performing a "real" song. If they actually wrote it.... then I will keep my ears peeled for other stuff by them.

Wish I wrote that song.
