Say what you will about the Backstreet Boys' present popularity or whatever, by the equivalent time in their careers (compared to Bieber) they had produced SEVERAL hits that crossed over into the adult contemporary genre and STILL play on adult contemp radios today-ie Quit Playing Games, As Long As You Love ME, All I Have To Give. I have yet to hear a single song from Bieber that capture the ADULT audience at all. If all he can produce is songs for 12 -17 yr olds-he's doomed. That lemming crowd will move on to the latest greatest no matter HOW talented he may or may not be.
