Their first two releases, 'Backstreet Boys' and 'Millennium', have sold a combined 63 million copies, and subsequent releases
'Black & Blue' and 'Never Gone' have achieved multi-platinum status worldwide. Singles 'Quit Playin' Games (With My Heart),'
'Everybody (Backstreet's Back),' 'All I Have To Give,' and 'I Want It That Way' all went platinum between 1997 and 1999 and,
