    Lyrics:
    All you people can't you see, can'tyou see
    How your love's affecting our reality
    Every time we're down
    You can make it right
    And that makes you larger than life
    Looking at the crowd
    And I see your body sway, c'mon
    Wishin' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon
    Cuz all of your time spent keeps us alive

    Fuckin' hell...I'm a 25 year old dude, born in 1990, I was 9 when this came out, totally remember bugging my parents for this CD and Nsync's NSA, listening to it in my room on my boombox or walkman CD player, reading magazines, playing Pokemon on my Gameboy Color, I cannot absolutely cannot believe this was 15-16 years ago, I cannot comprehend how it has been so many years yet I remember it like it was yesterday, it brings tears to my eyes. No smartphones, no myspace, facebook, youtube, wikipedia, nada. 1997-September 10, 2001 were just amazing years in my life. Everything changed after 9/11, everything, we all had to grow up real damn quick. I lived on a military base in NJ at the time. Just fuck man.

    • @19EHF

      Dude, DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED!!!!!!!! I remember all the girls in my 1st grade class jammin out to two things, for the boys it was BSB/NSync for the girls it was Britney Spears or Spice Girls. Man if you didnt have one of their CDs you werent in considered not one of us. I remember the days of battling my friends with our Pokemon. Christmas morning and I get my first gameboy color (lime green) and Pokemon Yellow version. That started a love affair with pokemon games that continues for me to this day, even though im 23. I was also a huge Digimon fan, so much so that I wore gloves to school like they did on the show, needless to say people thought I was weird but I was so obsessed I didnt care. I was sort of a tomboy back then everything from Power Rangers to pokemon/digimon, Ninja Turtles, Action figures, Star Wars I was into. But I was also a huge fan of girl stuff like sailor moon and the Spice Girls (I made it abundantly clear to my friends that whenever we would role play I was always scary spice). Yea technology sucked back then but it didnt matter you know why? Because between music and television we had more than enough to keep ourselves entertained, my house didnt even have cable and television was stil god back then, thanks mainly in part to Kids WB and ABC One Saturday Morning, Disney was the shit....I mean THE SHIT in the 90, hell even politics were less insane back the (excluding the lewinsky scandal). Now this was just in America obviously Rwandans,Eastern Europeans and the British Royal family dont look back on the 90s with such fondness. Despite that times were still good on this side of the atlantic, hell we even had an economic surplus. But then Bush got elected, 9/11 happened and starting in the late 2000s the quality of music and television just went downhill. See man you almost got me on the verge of tears. I mean dont get me wrong I love the high quality tech we have now but I cant help but feel all this immense progress came at a great cost. It not just our childhood, everyone longs for the days of their youth to a certain extent but it was the world we live in that made our childhood great. The 90s wasnt just the last decade of the 20th century/2nd millenium but it truly was the last GREAT decade. Ok im done

    Born in 1986. Kids today will never know this era of music and how special being apart of it was Up until the early 2000s. It was a special time to be growing up. Irreplaceable. To live during this time is an absolute experience. Rushing home from school to watch these videos on TRL when they originally came out. Recording mix tapes directly from the radio (trying not to get the DJ or commercials) and then graduating to mixing CDs. THESE were the golden years. If what I described was your experience you are either close to 40 or older!

    I may run and hide
    When you're screamin' my name, alright

    There are prices to fame, alright
    All of our time spent in flashes of light
    All you people can't you see, can't you see
    How your love's affecting our reality
    Every time we're down
    You can make it right
    And that makes you larger than life
    Looking at the crowd
    And I see your body sway, c'mon
    Wishin' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon
    'Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive
    All you people can't you see, can't you see
    How your love's affecting our reality
    Every time we're down
    You can make it right
    And that makes you larger than life
    All of your time spent keeps us alive
    All you people can't you see, can't you see
    How your love's affecting our reality
    Every time we're down
    You can make it right
    And that makes you larger than life
    Yeah, every time we're down
    Yeah, you can make it right
    Yeah, and that's what makes you larger than life
    All you people can't you see, can't you see
    How your love's affecting our reality
    Every time we're down
    You can make it right
    And that makes you larger
    That makes you larger

      Yep. BSB is known to always put out a fan's song. Brian help co-wrote "Larger than Life". 😍💖 BSB have so many fan's song for example, "Permanent Stain" (co-wrote by Nick), "Feels Like Home" (co-wrote by Howie, Nick, and Kevin), "The One" (co-wrote by Brian), "The Perfect Fan" (aka Mother's day song co-wrote by Brian for his mother and brought in his HS choir into the song), "Soldier" (co-wrote by Howie and Nick), "I Want It That Way" (they didn't wrote it but they brought their fans into their MV), "OK", "Bigger", "In A World Like This", "Everyone", "Shape of My Heart", etc...some songs they didn't wrote it but ignite the idea that they wanted a fan's song for their long time fans. Two songs that all 5 BSB members wrote complete by themselves without help were *"The Answers to Our Lives"* and *"Time"* from their Black and Blue album (2000). I see those two songs as an autobiography songs. Very few of the BSB fan's songs like *"Everyone"* (didn't wrote this song but had two longtime writers who work with BSB since the beginning) show subtle hints they were struggling behind the curtains but thanking their fans....this was amidst ponzi scheme started by their creator/manager taking majority of their money it was in the media/magazine/newspaper for a bit and had great fan supporting them from around the globe...before social media. The internet was starting to become a household thing.

      i think you are right, i love 1D but i like them better on their own. They look so happy as solo artists.
      The backstret boys really made it cuz they are friends in true life i think

      You got me wrong I didn't say that there isn't good music today. There is MUCH better music today than in 2000 i agree with you. It's just that the only ones promoted and seen everywhere are not so much the good ones but the rubbish when in 2000s was the opposite :)
