Boy band video chronology
by wubb

Okay, there are a lot of boy band videos going back to before NKOTB really.

You probably didn't think anyone could make a chronology of them did you? Well you were very very wrong.

Okay you might think their chronology would be the same as the order they were made. Don't be so naive.

NSYNC's 'It's Gonna Be Me' has the girl from 'Bye Bye Bye' working in a toy store. In BBB she is driving a Ferrari racing around with the NSYNCers. Obviously she must have come into a good chunk of money to get the Ferrari and would have quit the toy store job at that point. So IGBM had to occur before Bye Bye Bye.

In NSYNC's 'Bye Bye Bye' we see a sign for Rt 34 along the road they are speeding up. Rt 34 was changed to Interstate 54 back in 1935 so that places Bye Bye Bye at sometime before '35

The New Kid's 'You Got the Right Stuff' shows a quick glimpse of Sheila's hair in the background. This opened in '38 and shut down (sadly) in '41. Putting YGTRS sometime in those years.

Back Street Boys 'Everybody' has several fantastical creatures. One being Mr. Hyde. From the novel we know Mr. Hyde lived in the 1800s. This puts Everybody before 'It's Gonna Be Me'.

BSB's 'Larger Than Life' Has them jumping around on a space station. You'd think this would mean far in the future. But it's set in the Star Wars universe which happened 'a long long time ago'. So LTL is the earliest video.

So here is my chronology of boy band vidoes:

Larger Than Life - Back Street Boys
Everybody - BSB
It's Gonna Be Me - NSYNC
Bye Bye Bye - NSYNC
You Got the Right Stuff - New Kids
