We’re still fangirling over Blink-182’s tour and album announcement. Tickets for their Summer tour go on sale this week! Check out the tour dates HERE! Here’s a playlist of some of our favorite classic Blink videos.
1.”What’s My Age Again?”
2. “All The Small Things”
3. “The Rock Show”
4. “First Date”
5. “I Miss You”
Good Charlotte are back with a new single, and are heading out on tour with All Time Low in the UK! We guess all that writing with 5SOS inspired them to venture back into the “mall punk” sound they helped craft in the early 2000s.
1.”The Anthem”
2. “Lifestyles Of The Rich & Famous”
3. “Girls & Boys”
4. “Little Things”
5. “I Just Wanna Live”
BONUS: “Makeshift Love”
Selena Gomez’s new album “Revival” is out today and we thought what better way to celebrate than revive our favorite songs from her archive!
1. “Who Says”
2. “Love You Like A Love Song”
3. “Slow Down”
4. “Whiplash”
5. “Round & Round”
One of the best things about Summer is the outdoor fairs and carnivals that pop up all over the country. And what’s a carnival without some great music? Here are some of our favorite carnival-themed videos!
1. Jordan Knight – “Give It To You”
Our formative years consisted of calling into TRL constantly to vote for this video. Looking back, we totally made the right decision because this is THE only ‘carnival’ video that matters.
2. Big Time Rush – “Boyfriend”
Learn from James Diamond. If your bae can’t make it to the carnival, you can always find a nice plant to go on rides with you.
3. Mariah Carey – “Fantasy”
This video is definitely a sweet, sweet fantasy, baby!
4. The Vamps – “Last Night”
We love The Vamps idea for this video: let’s use our entire budget and build ourselves a carnival for the video shoot! We’d totally do the same.
5. NKOTB – “Please Don’t Go Girl”
With Wahlburgers opening in Coney Island soon, we can only hope the band stops by to re-enact scenes from this video. Can we ride the Wonder Wheel with Joey?
The Lonely Island just started production on their new movie, a mockumentary about a boyband reunion and parody of fluffy music documentaries, produced by Judd Apatow. This sounds amazing, and we can’t help but hope that Samberg’s BFF Justin Timberlake will make an appearance along with some of his former bandmates! After all, Lance and Joey are actors, too (see the 2001 masterpiece “On The Line.”). And Justin is a respected actor and all now, but never forget where he got his acting start – “Model Behavior” playing a teen heartthrob. From the superficial stars to the real ones.
Here are some of our favorite tracks by The Lonely Island (excluding the ones featuring JT because duh.)
1. “Throw It On The Ground”
This ain’t my Dad, this is a cell phone!
2. “YOLO” featuring Adam Levine & Kendrick Lamar
You Oughta Look Out!
3. “I’m On A Boat” featuring T-Pain
If you claim to not sing this every time you’re on/near a boat, you’re lying.
4. “Jack Sparrow” featuring Michael Bolton
We’d be okay with Michael Bolton making an appearance in the movie, too.
5. “The Creep” featuring Nicki Minaj
They’ve got the boyband dance moves nailed.
Few artists have had as much chart topping success as Mariah Carey. She ranks in second place in the most #1 singles of any artist, just behind The Beatles. She just announced her upcoming second full album of her 18 #1 hits, named “#1 to Infinity.” Here are our all time favorite Mariah #1s and music videos!
1. “Fantasy”
2. “One Sweet Day” featuring Boyz II Men
3. “Heartbreaker” featuring Jay-Z
4. “Honey”
5. “Always Be My Baby”
Shania Twain announced this week that she’s embarking on her first tour in over a decade, and it happens to be her LAST TOUR EVER!! (cries) Check out the full list of tour dates for Shania’s “Rock This Country Tour 2015” HERE.
Now, slip into your leopard jumpsuit with matching cape and go a little crazy this weekend because we decided to showcase our favorite Shania Twain songs from her impressive catalog of hits!
1. “Man, I Feel Like A Woman”
2. “Still The One”
3. “Gonna Getcha Good”
4. “That Don’t Impress Me Much”
5. “From This Moment”
It’s tearing up our hearts that an *NSYNC reunion hasn’t happened yet. But we are never giving up hope. Especially since the band members are all still friends – Lance revealed on Watch What Happens Live that the guys have a group text and talk almost every day. (!!!!) Last night, E! aired a special on Lance Bass’ wedding to Michael Turchin. It was a beautiful ceremony, and a historic moment, and we’re so glad that Lance and Michael shared with us all. Oh, and how amazing was it seeing Joey and JC? (Chris was there too but we only caught a brief glimpse of him) We’re still fangirling over JC’s role as the “wedding singer.” He hasn’t aged a day (sorry Justin, but he was always our fave), and it reminded us just how much we need to see JC, and the rest of the guys, on stage again.
So while we wait for that reunion tour announcement (seriously, the amount we would be willing to pay for tickets to that tour increases daily), watch our favorite *NSYNC videos and try not to drive yourself crazy wanting them back.
This weekend marks the official start of summer, which means concert season is in full swing! And we’re seeing the Backstreet Boys on Sunday! It’s hard to believe BSB have been together for 21 years now, and after all this time they’re still going strong. And they’re one of the few bands that have never let us down over the years. We love that they brought back their original music video choreography for tour. In honor of the In a World Like This Tour, here are our five favorite BSB videos! (It was extremely hard to not make this a Friday Ten…)
1. “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)”
This is probably the most iconic boy band video of ALL TIME. Why are they monsters? Nobody knows. But seriously, you haven’t lived until you’ve seen Backstreet Boys perform “Everybody” live, with the entire crowd doing the choreography. And have you caught the ending of “This Is The End?” Apparently in heaven everyone knows the “Everybody” dance.
2. “Larger Than Life”
Budgets for music videos were much bigger in the 90s, like in this video when BSB went to outer space. AJ is also probably the only man on earth who can pull off a mesh cropped top. (He’s got the abs for it!) We’re still not sure why they always insist on keeping Nick so under wraps in these videos (first he’s a mummy, now a robot?)
3. “I Want It That Way”
The video has over 98 million views on YouTube for a reason. Another iconic boy band video, which has been spoofed by Blink-182 and paid homage to by Big Time Rush. We still get chills every time we hear Nick sing The Note. (You know the one). And that sad fangirl wave to Brian at the end? We totally know your pain.
4. “Quit Playing Games With My Heart”
Otherwise known as that video where it starts raining and they dance around and get their button down shirts and baggy pants soaking wet for no reason. Howie D just totally takes it off. Poor Brian had to keep his shirt buttoned because of his scar from heart surgery! We are full of important 90s trivia facts like this, which we probably learned from TRL, Making the Video or Popup Video.
5. “As Long As You Love Me”
The CHAIR DANCE! One of our fondest memories of middle school is when all the boys in our class blasted this song from their walkman, and attempted to recreate this chair dance during homeroom. The key word being attempted.
Bonus. “We’ve Got It Goin’ On”
This might be the best song to dance to, ever. And their wardrobe is on point. Layered denim and leather? Check. This is also the song with the prayer dance.
Just do yourself a favor and head to the Backstreet Boys Vevo page and hit play all, it’s Friday. We’ll be rehearsing our choreography for Sunday’s show.

One of our songs of the summer is guaranteed to be the catchy single, “Surfboard” by Cody Simpson. We love the retro intro that melts into the r&b chorus. The video is out just in time for summer and we can’t be more excited! Watch the official video below!
It’s a shame that Cody Simpson got sent home this week on DWTS! He was just too good for the competition. We were hoping for a final dance-off between former tour mates James Maslow & Cody Simpson!
We can’t wait to see Cody this summer at the BLI Summer Jam at Jones Beach! Tickets are on sale now!
