I only am having the Innosense related part on the transcript. The rest of the interview had nothing to do with them.

BROOKE ALEXANDER, HOST: Hi, I'm Brooke Alexander in New York City. They said it wouldn't last, but it keeps going from strength to strength. WORLD BEAT revisits the teen scene. Coming up, Florida's teen trio Backstreet, Britney and 'N Sync, Canada's teen triplets, The Moffatts and Christina's teen genie, unbottled for "Inside Track."

The Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears had the best selling albums in the U.S. last year, moving more than 10 million copies apiece. And with artists like Christina Aguilera and Jessica Simpson entering the field, predictions of an end to the teen phenomenon seem premature.

For our Cover Version we cross now to Bruno del Granado at the epicenter of the teen machine, Orlando, Florida.

BRUNO DEL GRANADO, WORLD BEAT (on camera): Thank you, Brooke.

This is the back street area of Orlando, from which the most successfully of the boy bands took their name. The city is the musical birthplace of 'N Sync, Britney Spears and, of course, The Backstreet Boys. With a total of eight Grammy nominations, these three acts are the undisputed leaders of the unstoppable pop music movement.

DEL GRANADO: The careers of Backstreet Boys, 'N Sync, Britney Spears and LFO have all been touched by the hand of one man, Lou Pearlman, who made the move into music from his Orlando-based aviation company.

LOU PEARLMAN, PRESIDENT, TRANS CONTINENTAL RECORDS: I located some young talent here in the Orlando area and really all I had in mind was just The Backstreet Boys. That was it. And then realizing all the overhead and expenses you need to run a studio operation and so on, one of the guys that was originally in Backstreet came back to me about a year and a half later and brought some friends and the next thing you know it developed into 'N Sync and some friends of friends developed into LFO and so on.

And Britney was going to be originally in Innosense, our girls group, and now Innosense is going to be coming out themselves in this first quarter of 2000 with their new single. And it's just developing on and on and on. It just kept on going. It's great. I'm loving it.

NICKI, INNOSENSE: Our manager, Lynn Harless, she, well she had been on the road with 'N Sync because Justin's her son and she decided she wanted to put together a girls group. And so she had an audition and kind of in some weird way all of us were kind of found through knowing the guys. And that's how we came to Kevin.

NICKI: Oh, we released in Europe. We went to Germany, Austria and Sweden and actually released over there and went on a tour and stuff like that and then came back and the last year we've kind of spent, you know, getting our stuff together for the states and our music, our album.

DEL GRANADO: The European route to riches has become a well traveled path since the very beginning for Pearlman's company. Transcontinental Records.
