Puesto #1 ¿Cuál es la historia de este hitazo de los Backstreet Boys? Pues al parecer su autor, Max Martin, era un escritor sueco que recién comenzaba en el mundo de la música y tenía algunas dificultades con el idioma (con el inglés, por supuesto), las cuales se hicieron notorias en el momento de componer el tema.

De este tema hubo dos versiones, la sin sentido y la con sentido. Los Backstreet Boysgrabaron las dos, pero cuando escucharon la versión final de las dos todos coincidieron en que la primera era (la sin sentido) era mucho mejor que la segunda, y esa fue la que quedó.

"Realmente es gracioso porque cuando la oímos por primera vez esta letra no tenía sentido y ahora sí. Y también el presidente de JIVE records de aquel entonces (debo decir que él era un genio), pero él y algunas personas de Aamp;R quisieron cambiar la letra", explicó Nick Carter.

Y Kevin Richardsonlo remató: "Para hacer que la canción tuviera más sentido". "Al momento de rehacer la canción contratamos a alguien que los productores conocían realmente muy bien. Y así fue como hubo otra versión de la canción dando vueltas por allí, pero cuando la escuchamos y votamos como grupo dijimos ?Mmm? no?", completó Carter.

Finalmente, los Backstreet Boyspudieron hacerse oír y decidieron que se quedaban con la primera versión.

"Creo que la segunda versión que hicimos del tema era más literal, pero el esquema de rimas no se sentía bien. Sí, fue eso, realmente no se sentía bien, por lo que a veces solamente se trata de que se sienta bien y no de que tenga sentido", reflexionó A.J. McLean.


[Verse 1] (Brian)
Because you are, my fire
The one, desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way

(Nick)
But we, are two worlds
Apart, can't reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way

[Chorus] (All)
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

(A.J.)
Am I, your fire?
Your one, desire?
Yes I know it's too late
But I want it that way

[Chorus]

[Verse 2] (Kevin)
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

(Howie)
You are, my fire
The one, desire
You are

You are, you are, you are

Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Tell me why

Tell me why
Ain't nothing but a heartache
Ain't nothing but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say (don't wanna hear you say)
I want it that way
