Synopsis

The Backstreet Boys introduce themselves through a fast-moving mix of performance and everyday mischief. They sing and dance in a gym, park, studio, club, and arcade pool hall, presenting the group as energetic, playful, and ready to entertain. A comic subplot follows Brian Littrell abandoning his girlfriend while she washes a Jeep to join a basketball game; she retaliates by soaking him with water. The video closes the gap between polished pop performance and the boys' youthful personalities.
