Ecco un articolo scritto da Sandra Bahbah sul concerto a Perth!
OVER 90 per cent of the crowd was female, and it appeared 100 per cent of them were ecstatic they were finally going to see The Backstreet Boys perform.
Their trip to Perth had been 17 years in the making for those who were obsessed with the American boy band growing up, but no-one could have predicted just how much nostalgia one evening could bring.
Ricki-Lee Coulter was a fitting opening act. However, she looked a bit amateur with just one guitarist and two back-up singers. Her voice was a bit shrill as she spoke but her singing was decent as she belted out her song Can’t Touch It. It was her cover of Rihanna’s Umbrella that had some cringing. It served as a reminder that Coulter began her career on karaoke-type reality show Australian Idol. She performed Jackson Five’s I Want You Back well but the saving grace for her act was her guitarist and vocalist Glen who beautifully sang Mary J Blige and Bono's duet One Love with Coulter. It was with a sigh of relief that she exited the stage to make way for The Backstreet Boys.
The screen lit up with a countdown timer of ten seconds. It asked the crowd to stand up and make some noise. As if they needed to be asked. Everyone was out of their seats and shrieking in excitement as a video of the group sporting “hardcore” facial expressions introduced each artist. Running in the video, the group of four appeared on the stage to sing Everybody (Backstreet’s Back). Notably missing was fifth member Kevin Richardson, who left the group in 2006, but Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell and AJ McLean made up for his absence.
There is not one person who will dispute that The Backstreet Boys are as corny as a heart-shaped box of chocolates on Valentine’s Day, but like that item, they are a sweet treat. Their boy band dance moves were impressive but definitely giggle-worthy as one could only describe them as over the top. They had four female back-up dancers to help with the evening’s entertainment and more costume changes than a Beyonce concert, but by gosh it was fun to watch.
It was easy to see why they have sustained their popularity all these years. As Britney Spears would know it is no mean feat to be able to dance and sing at the same time, but these lads do sing live and it was astounding to note their breathlessness was barely registrable.
As the group sang We’ve Got It Going On, it was observed that Carter had shed the pounds and was ageing quite well; McLean on the other hand appeared to have receding hair and a few extra kilos under his belt. While their physical appearances had changed - their voices had not.
The group’s shoes all lit up as they sang PDA and made the crowd sing-a-long to arguably the lamest song of their otherwise favourable music catalogue. Littrell appeared excited to be in Australia and chanted “Aussie, Aussie, Aussie”, the crowd returned with “Oi, Oi, Oi”. Littrell said “he always wanted to say that” and the punters were only too happy to accommodate him. He also thanked the brave men who got dragged along to the concert by their girlfriends and the fathers in the crowd. During this exchange McLean took pictures of the crowd, which will be posted on the group’s official site.
Quit Playing Games (With My Heart) and As Long As You Love Me were performed shortly after, with the crowd singing along to just about every song. Throughout the evening each artist was superimposed into a movie clip. Dorough was placed on Fast and the Furious, McLean was in Fight Club, Littrell was in Enchanted and Carter was in The Matrix, where he made a comment about the friendly rivalry between themselves and Justin Timberlake’s former group ‘N Sync.
Their lyrics weren’t the most thought provoking in the world, but it’s their unabashed simplicity people connect with. Such was the case with their next song This Is Us. The crowd went into overdrive when The Backstreet Boys performed Show Me The Meaning of Being Lonely and it was safe to say a few people in the crowd shed a tear or two from happiness during the evening.
The show continued on with She’s A Dream, All I Have to Give and I’ll Never Break Your Heart, which was sung while a montage of the group in their heyday was displayed on the screen. Carter’s falsetto made an appearance throughout the show as the group performed The Call, I’ll Be The One and their latest single Bigger.
The quartet exclaimed that The Backstreet Boys fans are the best because they keep sticking around, but they are probably unaware of the effect boy bands have on the female population. Many women relate to them because they aren’t afraid to appear romantic or vulnerable.
Shape of My Heart had everyone creating heart shapes out of air and swaying along and I Will Love You More Than That had the audience gushing. The DJ onstage also provided an electric atmosphere between breaks and kept the crowd’s energy elevated. After promising to come back next tour, The Backstreet Boys sang one of their newer songs Incomplete. The group wore space-like outfits for their hit Larger Than Life and showed some love to the women earlier in the evening as McLean went into the crowd and handed out roses.
They sang I Want It That Way before leaving the stage. They returned shortly after for their one song encore of Straight Through My Heart. They left the stage and the screen lit up to show them blowing kisses to the crowd and waving goodbye. No matter how much people may cringe at boy bands, you have to admit there must be a reason for their success. If one person could relive their entire childhood and teen angst in one night that's what occurred. It was a memorable night indeed.
Inoltre ho trovato 2 video con l'intervista che i Boys hanno fatto in India! sono molto belli! parlano del loro rapporto, del lavoro, dei fans!
Guardateli!
Per oggi direi che gli aggiornamenti bastano! :-P
