How Well Do Adults Remember 1999? ft. AJ McLean! (Backstreet Boys, Fight Club, Bill Clinton)

[@MartineBeerman]

That AJ actually SANG in studio is Evvvvvveeerrrything!!! He’s a really really down to earth and lovely guy (for those wondering.) I’m really excited for his new music and projects ! 🙌🙌

[@wastingjam4133]

Ive never been more jealous of anyone ever.

[@nizaru100]

@@wastingjam4133 Madame, Sorry, but I m a curious about our society evolution , about this VIDEO, is that how the average American adult behave now-days ? They talk a lot with much slang use , and it seems they exaggerate their face expression way beyond necessary to give their opinion about what they're shown , despite all of them being over 40 years age . I used to watch reportages about the 60's American adults, they were all concerned by being the first to go to the moon project by Kenedy, so they were way more serious, did have nice speech & used no slang ! And in their 40's they were into family responsibilities not just (taking girlfriends here and there) , there was no libertinage ,,,,, Really, young adults now-days ...........:( !!!!!!!! they do not look very wise or like having a wide knowledge, and do not look innocent either ; and Women have little Reservation ; the opposite of 50's & 60's adults (our parents & Grand parents). Live to Parents, Live to Grand-Parents , Live to Humbleness & Reservation Thank you Madame

[@wastingjam4133]

@@nizaru100 i was going to respond to what you said about not looking innocent /little reservations etc but thats a whole other novel that my fingers are too tired to type today. I shall attempt that at another time. Basically to finish my previous thought... the world is a horrible place with horrible things happening daily. So i say , even if its not something that you relate to, align with or understand, and as long as its not hurting anyone just be happy that people are happy. If you watch a video like this just think " i dont get it, its not interesting to me , but they seem like they are happy and having fun. Good for them." And then do whatever it is that gets you all jazzed up.

[@nizaru100]

@@wastingjam4133 Oh, Thank You Madame, but I do not agree that Life is just to be happy , because if we all agree to step on ethics & morals to be happy , would this be appropriate to us Huamas, ? I think we must be happy according to marals (Incest can make their doers happy and manyb cases are reported of this , but is it really something you can encourage one to do ?) and to the Purpose of Life , Why are we here, where we're going after .. ? Thanks Madame

@@nizaru100 people in the 50‘s and 60‘s used slang too lol and we had young adults behaving like that in the 90‘s too. (Jim Carrey.. lol)

Your reactions are definitely the best and funniest.

To sit beside AJ McLean and sing and just have fun? GOALS. My aunt and I would simply pass away.

i got to meet the backstreet boys back in '97 and AJ was the nicest of all of them! so cool to see him still being so nice and kind

[@MegaDreamer87]

I remember many of these things, because I grew up with many of them. It's awesome that AJ McLean is in this episode; he was and still is one of my favorite members of The Backstreet Boys.

[@twistedoldloony]

Erin and AJ were so amazing TOGETHER!! She really gave him a run for his money which is amazing all things considered!! Also he's hilarious!!

[@jenniferrichards9841]

Really enjoyed inclusion of AJ. He was an engaged guest, and he absolutely nailed the assessment of Keanu Reeves in our shared history. I tip my hat to you, Sir AJ.

[@Southernblonde1310]

You all are rocking it with the guests. AJ was hilarious and fit right in!!

[@SarikaD]

Omg!!!! AJ!!!! I was sooo in love with him in my younger days! He's as down to earth as he always was.

[@canadajane7993]

They did react to Teens reacting to them. I was born in 2003 and for my 16th birthday I went ti bsb. We were in thr definition of nosebleed section but loved every minute of it. And I met Baylee littrell

[@katefarr2036]

Oh my God, AJ yelling that Furby is gonna take your soul SENT ME.

Haha as a little girl I had a Furby that I loved more than anything. Now as an adult, I can see why people find them creepy.😂😂😂

This is making my morning I love the Backstreet Boys and AJ is my favorite as an adult. Everything looks like they’re having such a good time.

Erin is living my 90’s dream life! 😭😍

[@debbiesmith3443]

AJ was a pretty good sport for coming on in participating, Lauryn Hill, Will Smith, the Backstreet Boys.😊

[@alankingsley2916]

It’s worth mentioning that Y2K was not all hype. It really would have been quite bad, but the right people recognized the danger early and a TON of people put in thousands of man-hours to fix lines of code and make sure that everything transitioned smoothly into the 2000s. It’s a success story about communication and hard work!

[@sapodilla25]

AJ is so nice and normal and just a good guy. 😊

[@mogystiquetv5810]

This was a really fun video to watch. I hope you can make more of these. Nice to see, AJ, along with the reactors.

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

I still remember tthe craziness over Y2K. People stocking up supplies and whatnot. I was 16 at the time. I remember my parents, as a precautionary method, put some stuff, not a lot, down in our basement's root cellar. Meanwhile, I wasn't worried one bit. I honestly thought the year would turn over to 2000 and we'd all still be fine. I actually still remember what I was doing that New Year's Eve. I was watching tthe war movie A Thin Red Line. Great movie. I feel like it doesn't get enough recognition.

[@DavidStruveDesigns]

When they were talking about Y2K and that it "didn't make any sense, cos what would happen?", it actually _did_ make sense - because there really was quite a few systems that weren't updated to counter the 00 issue and they _really did_ fail. Ironically the sheer panic over even the _possibility_ of things failing meant so many software engineers recoded their stuff and sent out updates to switch to a longer date format that _this_ is what prevented it from being worse. To the point that now people are 100% convinced it was either a total hoax or would never have caused an issue in the first place. It would have, but we thankfully avoided it because of the public outcry and panic.

[@zevo9314]

AJ getting that prize is too funny

[@indade]

Izzy is flawless.......without flaws........absence of flaw........flaws not found.

[@MaulyMayhem]

I would have been so freaking giddy sitting next to AJ. BSB was my obsession along with stickers at one point in my life. And yes, I had a sticker book dedicated to them 😂. The 90’s was a simpler time…..also a weird one

[@btetschner]

A+ video! Excellent popular culture references. This video is going to be a classic.

[@missoverlord]

I love that they got AJ to appear in this video. He still looks amazing.

With the y2k thing, people are forgetting how basic computers and other machines still were, and it could have gone to shit as planned because they weren’t made to be as self-preserving as they are now! I still remember what I was doing at 12am on the new year. Everyone was on the back patio celebrating and watching the fireworks and I was just inside eating like I don’t care, I just want to be alone with my food

[@Denial401]

Seeing BSB live next week Saturday. Suuuuper excited! 😬

[@JoshuaGray9780]

I will say AJ has aged like fine wine

[@kczcb4697]

Aj definitely wore the most expensive watch in react history. Believe he’s wearing a Richard Mille, at least a quarter million dollars. Was awesome that he enjoyed competing

[@GLBizzie]

AJ looks healthier again and I’m loving it

[@bwines16]

Okay but all the behind the scenes work for y2k was crazy. Y’all need to realize how new all that technology was. It wasn’t just programmed to roll over to 00.

So cool to see AJ McClean on here ♥Love me some BSB and N'sync ^.~

@@GLBizzie I sorta got feels for Brian when he had his heart surgery. BUT still "I got AJ!" 😁

[@sunnivab302]

This is one of the best "React" videos imo. Side note; I met AJ here in Amsterdam when he was in Club iT. He came there dressed like a white cowboy with hat and RayBan sunglasses.. He looked so good! 😍 Surrounded by bodyguards. I spoke to one of his bodyguards and that's how I found out who he was. He looked at me, I looked at him as if I saw water burning and he nodded a "Hi". My whole evening I just talked about this and the days after that. I will never forget it 😊😍

[@trackmasters65]

the 90s break my heart. We were having a genuinely good time, the decade started with scarily high crime but it was falling and everything was becoming safer, the music was so fun and diverse, and while democrats and republicans were fighting about who gave Billy C a BJ, we still felt united. Then that all ended one beautiful, sunny morning in 2001. We were so close.

[@katwebbxo]

The sudden change from that feeling of late 90's was crazy.

[@sydnicasanover]

I had a Furby that didn't have batteries in it and the damn thing STILL worked. It was some crazy stuff.

[@crichards037]

OMG ME TOO! I took the batteries out and threw it out my second story window and it was still talking. Furbies are the things of nightmares and nobody can convince me otherwise.

The thing about Y2K is that it didn't cause problems like the fear-mongering media said it would, because as soon as they realised it had a possibilty to occur, computer engineers and programmers all over the world doublechecked codes and fixed what programming needed fixing to ensure it would not happen.

[@OddlyIncredible]

More money was spent on fixing Y2K than was spent on waging World War I. THAT is why it ended up being NBD.
