Backstreet Boys: Show 'Em What You're Made Of Page #3

---

THE NERVOUS SYSTEM

AND THE MIND.

JUST BREATHE.

LA LA LA...

UH-HUH. LET IT GO.

YOU KNOW MY VOICE IS,

YOU KNOW, IT'S MY LIFE.

YOU KNOW,

WE TAKE IT FOR GRANTED,

- BECAUSE IT'S JUS SOMETHING THAT'S GIVEN.

- RIGHT.

AND...

AND FOR ME IT'S, UM,

IT'S NOT A GIVEN RIGHT NOW.

IT COMES AND GOES.

IT'S HARD FOR ME TO TALK ABOU TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.

UM... I TRY TO...

I TRY REALLY HARD

TO BE OPTIMISTIC ABOUT IT,

UM, BUT I'M FACED

WITH IT EVERY DAY.

UM, THE DOCTOR

MENTIONED:

VOCAL TENSION DYSPHONIA,

WHICH IS THE TIGHTENING

OF THE MUSCLES:

AROUND THE VOCAL CHORDS

WHICH 'CAUSES THE VOCAL CHORDS

NOT TO WORK CORRECTLY.

IT'S FRUSTRATING.

IT'S VERY FRUSTRATING.

BECAUSE I WANT TO YOU KNOW,

I JUST WANT TO BE ME.

I WANT IT TO BE EASY.

AND I WANT TO HAVE

THE CAREFREE ATTITUDE,

YOU KNOW, THAT I HAD

YEARS AGO.

HERE WE ARE:

WITH THE BACKSTREET BOYS.

- HOW OLD ARE YOU ANYWAY?

- I'M 16.

- AND HOW OLD ARE YOU?

- 19.

- AND?

- 20.

- 20.

- AND?

- 14.

- OOH!

LOU PULLED EVERY RESOURCE

HE COULD WITH THIS

AND PULLED AS MANY STRINGS

AS HE COULD:

TO GET US TO BE AS BIG

AS WE COULD BE.

HE HAD ALL THESE THINGS

THAT A RICH BILLIONAIRE

ENTREPRENEUR SHOULD HAVE.

WE'RE A BUNCH OF YOUNG GUYS

THAT'S LIKE,

GOING INTO A FRICKIN',

LIKE DISNEY WORLD.

I MEAN, EVERY TIME WE ALL WOULD

HANG AT LOU'S HOUSE,

IT WAS A DIFFERENT ADVENTURE.

HE HAD THIS UNBELIEVABLE,

LIKE, ARCADE/MOVIE ROOM.

THAT HAD A COOL POOL TABLE,

ONE OF THOSE OLD-FASHIONED

COKE MACHINES.

IT WAS THE BEST DAMN TASTING

COKE YOU'VE EVER HAD LIFE

IN YOUR LIFE.

IT WAS SO GOOD,

IN THESE GLASS BOTTLES,

BUT IT WAS LIKE,

AN OLD-FASHIONED ONE.

AND THEN HE HAD THIS--

THE ORIGINAL DARTH VADER MASK.

AT THE END OF THE NIGHT,

WE'D PULL OUT ONE

OF LOU'S PORNS AND WE ALL

WATCHED THOSE EVERY SO OFTEN.

THE FIRST TIME I'D SEEN TWO

GIRLS EVEN KISSING EACH OTHER

WAS ON ONE:

OF LOU'S VIDEOTAPES.

AND I WAS LIKE,

"WHAT IS THIS?"

I'M LIKE,

"MY EYES ARE GONNA BURN."

I CAN'T EVEN TELL MY MOM

ABOUT THIS.

HI, LOU.

- WOW! I'M ON CANDID CAMERA.

HELLO.

HI.

LOU WAS BIG PAPA.

HE WAS LIKE ANOTHER FATHER

TO A LOT OF US,

LIKE KEVIN, ESPECIALLY.

YOU KNOW, BECAUSE KEVIN

WAS THE ONLY ONE, AT THAT TIME,

THAT DIDN'T HAVE A FATHER.

HE ALLOWED ME TO QUI MY TWO JOBS AND PURSUE MY DREAM,

AND I'M VERY APPRECIATIVE

OF THAT.

WE ALL CLAIM TO KNOW

EVERYTHING ABOUT EACH OTHER,

BUT THERE'S STILL

SO MUCH LEFT UNSAID,

SO MUCH LEFT UNLEARNED

SO WHILE WE WERE IN LONDON

MAKING THE RECORD,

WE TALKED ABOUT DOING THESE

LITTLE HOMETOWN TRIPS

TO REALLY KIND OF GO BACK

TO OUR GRASS ROOTS

TO KIND OF SEE WHERE EVERYBODY

REALLY CAME FROM.

SEE THESE PLACES,

EXPERIENCE IT TOGETHER,

AND GET THAT BOND TIGHT AGAIN.
