"And this one goes out to...
Everyone, everyone, everyone
So this one goes out to you
Everyone
We’re standing strong
‘Cause of what you’ve done
And this one goes out to you"
--EVERYONE

"All you people can't you see
Can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life!"

**NEWS**

AJ Egnaged!

Since December, there have been rumors that BACKSTREET BOY AJ McLEAN is engaged to Sarah Martin. He finally confirmed it a few weeks ago at VH1's "Fairway to Heaven" event. Congratuations AJ and Sarah!

Under New Management

The BACKSTREET BOYS are under new management. After leaving The Firm after a disappointing third album (BLACK & BLUE) and a premature greatest hits album and bad press after AJ McLEAN entered rehab for an alcohol problem, the BOYS have signed with Irving Azoff and Howard Kaufman. Azoff has handled the careers of the Eagles, Steely Dan, Linda Ronstadt and Jackson Browne. Kaufman is currently representing Michael Jackson.

AJ Selling Orange Co. Home

BACKSTREET BOY AJ McLEAN is selling his Phillips Landing home in southwest Orange County. AJ is asking for $1.95 million. The house itself is 6,200 square feet, six bedrooms, five bathrooms, sound studio, dock, great views, a garden tub, a THX theater and a patio. AJ plans to buy a smaller home in this area and a bigger property in Southern California, which is where he spends most of his time these days. Some of the proceeds from the sale will go to the performer's JNN Foundation, whose goals are to keep music in the schools, to aid diabetes research and to provide a safe environment for kids. The house is to be sold furnished, but McLean plans to auction some items to raise more money for his foundation.

Torchbearers

BACKSTREET BOYS HOWIE DOROUGH and KEVIN RICHARDSON carried the Olympic torch this past winter. HOWIE on DECEMBER 8, 2001 in Orlando, FL and KEVIN on JANUARY 16, 2002 in Los Angeles, CA.

BSB arrested

BACKSTREET BOY NICK CARTER was arrested in Tampa Bay, Florida on Wednesday January 2, 2002 for a misdemeanor of "avoiding/opposing a law enforcement officer without violence." He believes he was simply arrested for being a BACKSTREET BOY. He was released on his on recognizance and later agreed to community service and a misdemeanor intervention program.

MTV's TOTAL REQUEST LIVE

"MORE THAN THAT" was retired after 65 straight days on the TRL top ten countdown on 8/17/2001. It was the eighth video by the BACKSTREET BOYS to be retired from the countdown. It spent 34 days at number one, including it's sixty-fifth.

BILLBOARD HOT 100 SINGLES CHART

After peaking at #27 for three weeks, "MORE THAN THAT" dropped off the top 50 during the week of 8/11/2001.

107.9 The End TR-9 (Sacramento)

"MORE THAN THAT" was retired on 6/27/2001 from the TR-9 countdown. It had been on the countdown for 40 days. It is only the 5th song in TR-9 history to be retired.

**NOTE ABOUT CHARTS: Whether they are the BILLBOARDS or local stations, charts and lists are compiled from the previous week's rotation of that song. So when something is listed "Week of" that means that for the previous week, they were played so many more times than other songs. They hold the spot they do until new counts are compiled. BILLBOARDS are difficult to figure out. They post the date as the next week ending on Saturday, but they are out the previous Friday. Someone needs to go in and teach those counters how to read a calendar! *lol* Some stations do nightly request lists. I will not post these as they require me to update daily and I just have no time for that!
