🗣️⚠️ ‼️ ATTENTION PEOPLE, THIS IS OUR FIRST BSB COVER EVER ‼️(BSB=Backstreet Boys, obviously, and if you didn’t know that then you should probably keep it to yourself because that’s embarrassing! 😘) But seriously this is big news. Tell me why-y we waited so long to cover this epic late 90s boy band pop ballad?! We’re idiots!
The reason we actually finally recorded this song (because it’s always been on our list) is because my (Marnie’s) sister Ali requested it for her wedding last week! 💕💕👰♀️🤵♂️😭🙌 She has the best sense of humor and thought it would be hilarious for guests to hear those sweet, instantly recognizable first notes and imagine the opening lyrics “You are my fire, my one desire…” as she walked down the aisle. She kept the music choice a secret from all her friends and when we started playing, we got a hearty laugh from all the guests. It was perfection! (She also began her vows with “Jay…you are my fire. And my one desire,” which was met with even more lols.) All this to say, we highly recommend this as a wedding processional!
A little more of our history with BSB. My sister and I were obsessed with them in high school. (I think I was voted most likely to marry one of them in some kind of class poll??) They were my first big concert. They were always our first love, ahead of *NSYNC. So we wanted this video to be perfect! My sis and I were adamant that Patrick incorporate some kind of chair dance into it (famously from the “As Long As You Love Me” video but whatever)
but he claimed he “couldn’t” 🙄🙄🙄- the end of this video is the best we could get out of him. Of course I had to include a patented Howie wink 😉 during his solo (although mine wasn’t quite as quick and effortless as his always were!) And obviously we had to wear the famous all white outfits. Anyway, we hope you love it! Recording it made me so so so happy! Play it at your own weddings!

LYRICS:
You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way
But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way
Am I your fire
Your one desire
Yes I know it's too late
But I want it that way
[Chorus]
Now I can see that we're falling apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know
That deep down inside of me
You are my fire
The one desire
You are
You are, you are, you are
Don't wanna hear you say
Ain't nothing but a heartache
Ain't nothing but a mistake (don't wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say (oh, yeah)
I want it that way
[Chorus]
'Cause I want it that way
