Analyzing the Backstreet Brain..... Part One

Here's what this little series is all about. I'm listening to their songs, thinking all of this stuff, like "What in the name of God were they thinking when they wrote this?" or, "I wonder what that's really supposed to mean" and stuff like that. This is my explanation to all of my thoughts on a few of their songs, something just to appease me, you know? Well, enjoy! Want to email me? I'm at kevys_kat31@hotmail.com.

 

Larger Than Life

 

I may run and hide when you're screaming my name, alright.

~~I've never seen you run and hide. Why would you?~~

But let me tell you now, there are prices to fame, alright.

~~That's what all you famous people say. And ten bucks says you don't mean it.~~

All of our time spent in flashes of light

~~Have what? Fried your brains? Can you please finish the sentence!?!?!~~

 

CHORUS:

All you people, can't you see, can't you see?

~~I'm seeing you, aren't I? And it's a pretty good view. Kev, bend over a tad bit more. Yeah, there we go! =)~~

How your love's affecting our reality

~~Love? Hold up now! We know life on the road is tough, but that doesn't mean you can take advantage of us poor fans... Unless we want you to.~~

Every time we're down

~~Down where?~~

You can make it right

~~Yeah, I'll make everything right~~

And that makes you larger than life.

~~Really!?! Gawd, I'm flattered!~~

 

Looking at the crowd, and I see your body sway, c' mon

~~Yeah, Nicky, we know why you're looking. Shame on you!~~

Wishing I could thank you in a different way, c' mon!

~~You can!!! Oh, yes, you most definitely can. Kevin, can you sing that line, too? Harmonize or something. But make sure you cover up Nick.~~

Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive

~~Not time, dear. Money! Lots of it, too.~~

 

CHORUS--Repeat

~~Again, I'm seeing Kevin, and it's all good.~~

 

All of your time spent keeps us alive

~~I told you, it's money! If it was just time, everyone would love you!~~

 

CHORUS--Repeat

~~Again!?!?! Oh, wait, Kevin! Hold that pose!~~

 

Yeah, everytime we're down

~~AJ, you like this line, don't you?~~

Yeah, you can make it right

~~Don't I know it! =)~~

Yeah, and that makes you larger than life

~~Well, don't I feel special.~~

 

CHORUS--Repeat

~~How many times you gotta say it?!?! I can see, ok! AJ, quit getting down!~~
