A great pop album that isn't just the usual boyband fodder (Millennium - Backstreet Boys)

Advantages: A lot of catchy up-tempos and mid-tempos that stick in your head, some nicely sung slower tracks too

Disadvantages: One track that I'm not keen on but it's not a big criticism

***Larger Than Life***
The album's opening track is a lively up-tempo number that is a very catchy pop track. Given the fact that the lyrics seem to be aimed at the fans, I can imagine this being a big production on tour and it has that kind of stadium feel to it.

***I Want It That Way***
Slowing things down slightly, this is a mid-tempo track but it's still a good pop song with a fairly catchy chorus.

***Show Me The Meaning of Being Lonely***
This is another fairly slow track but one that demonstrates some nice vocals.

***It's Gotta Be You***
This is another up-tempo track that is pretty infectious.

***I Need You Tonight***
This is another of the slower tracks with good vocals and some touching lyrics.

***Don't Want You Back***
This is a fairly up-tempo track, which isn't quite as fast-paced as It's Gotta Be You. It's another catchy number though.

***Don't Wanna Lose You Now***
This track slows the tempo back down again and is quite a soft track.

***The One***
This is another of the fairly up-tempo tracks, and it's yet another catchy one.

***Back To Your Heart***
This is another of the slower tracks and isn't a million miles away from Don't Wanna Lose You Now for tempo.

***Spanish Eyes***
This is another slowish track with some lovely lyrics and nice vocals.

***No One Else Comes Close To You***
This is another slower offering. It is a slightly faster tempo than Spanish Eyes but a little slower than Back To Your Heart.

***Perfect Fan***
This is the one track on the album that I'm not very keen on as it is quite overly sentimental. It's basically a dedication to a mother, who is his 'perfect fan' but I find it a bit weak in general and tend to skip over it.

***Overall Thoughts***
Overall, this is an impressive album with some very catchy up-tempo pop tracks mixed in with some lovely ballads. There are a few mid-tempos in there too. For me, there is only the one track that I don't care for much but even that isn't a bad track as such - it just doesn't appeal to me.

Summary: A very good album
