The Backstreet Boys still gave us what we wanted, even if they did it in five different ways.
The iconic boyband performed "I Want It That Way" from the comfort of their own homes on Sunday as part of Fox and iHeartRadio's Living Room Concert for America, the first major benefit concert to provide relief and support for Americans impacted by COVID-19.

Brian Littrell kicked things off from his house in Atlanta, singing the tune's famous opening line, "You are my fire, my one desire," before the other four members came in for the harmony. Each person got to shine and sing solo while showing off their best at-home attire. Nick Carter and Kevin Richardson were each accompanied by their kids as well.
