The Backstreet Boys are celebrating 19 years in the music biz...crazy right?
Today one of the trending hashtags on Twitter is #BSB19thAnniversary—it's all about sharing the BSB love and memories.
When the boys first came out I was...let's do the math...I was 20. Eeeek. Seriously where does the time go? And in a shocking development I was crushing on AJ. It's the bad boy thing—what can I say? He was my Donnie Wahlberg for that boy band. Hey at least I'm consistent damn it!
So to celebrate their 19th anniversary I felt that a musical trip down memory lane was in order...so a YMC Bsides playlist was created. Enjoy...
'Get down, get down and move it all around....' What? See any lyric taken out of context....oh never mind.
Twitter: @RyanSeacrest "I am deeply saddened by the loss of my dear friend Dick Clark. He has truly been one of the greatest influences in my life."
Legendary television producer and TV host Dick Clark died earlier today in a Los Angeles hospital of a heart attack. He was 82.
Dick Clark was TV. He was everywhere—more notably for TV shows like American Bandstand, TV Bloopers, all those game shows (I was addicted to Pyramid) and of course New Year's Rockin' Eve.
He made us laugh. He introduced us to music. He celebrated with the start of every new year with us.
He embodied everything you wanted in a host...that voice, that smile, that command of the audience and that ease and flow in front of a camera and on a microphone.
He was perfect for that role of TV host. He was born to take on that role.
He was a mentor to many and he displayed a grace and presence that so very few host every achieve—that's what made him so legendary. He was relatable to everyone. His fans were of so many generations...young and old knew who who he was and held to that icon status.
He will be so very missed.
And to Ryan Seacrest—the torch has officially been passed now. The microphone is all yours. Serve your mentor's and friend's memory well.
So, after receiving requests on Facebook and Twitter for a new workout playlist . . . here it is.
A mix of old and new—all to get you inspired as you sweat it out in the name of fitness.
