I could never have gotten into this fandom if I didn't love the music. I'm a pop girl, and I always have been--for ages my favorite music was Eighties pop and pop-rock, even pop-country like Shania Twain, and I just adopted nineties bubblegum pop as my new favorite when it showed up. I still buy way more pop albums than not, just because I enjoy the music.
And, to be honest, I love the sound of both BSB and nsync. Their voices, their harmonies--I loved them then, and I love them now. I bought Millenium by the Backstreet Boys--my first music purchase ever--when it came out in 1999, and I had the entire album memorized two years before I even knew their names, much less was slashing them. Nothing can cheer me up like Bye Bye Bye or I Want You Back or Drowning or Get Down, and every concert I've gone to has blown me away musically as well as in other ways.
