In the spirit of Throwback Thursday, we’re taking a trip down memory lane and revisiting a few iconic boy band covers performed by some of our scene favorites. Whether you’re Team *NSYNC or Team Backstreet Boys, part of the 5SOS army or a One Directioner, we have a beloved boy band cover just for you.

Check out some of our favorites below!

1. Set It Off – “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)”

Earlier in the year Set It Off blew our minds by not only tossing in a short cover of Backstreet Boys’ “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)” at the end of “N.M.E.,” but they added icing to the cake by topping it off with some impressive boy band choreography.

2. Escape The Fate – “I Want It That Way”

Continuing on with the Backstreet Boys’ covers, Escape The Fate had fans swooning with their cover of “I Want It That Way” during their I Am Human tour.

3. Patty Walters – “Story Of My Life”

Throwing it back to fetus Patty Walters of As It Is and his pop-punk cover of One Direction’s “Story Of My Life.” Is there anything he can’t cover?

4. BackWordz – “Bye Bye Bye”

BackWordz taking on the wildly popular track by *NSYNC is everything we never knew we needed.

5. Young Medicine – “Tearin’ Up My Heart”

When your cover gets a shoutout from *NSYNC member Lance Bass, you know it’s got to be a great one. Young Medicine give us a lesson in “Boy Band 101” with their cover of “Tearin’ Up My Heart.”

6. Charli XCX – “I Want It That Way”

Our queen is out here proving boy band covers aren’t just for boys. Charli XCX takes this BSB hit to the next level in a cover we can’t help but put on repeat.

7. Villain Of The Story – “Pop”

Villain Of The Story take *NSYNC’s “Pop” to the next level with killer vocals and a badass breakdown.

8. The 1975 – “What Makes You Beautiful”

Remember when Matty Healy from the 1975 covered this One Direction classic? Of course you do. How could you forget this beautiful BBC cover?

9. Our Last Night ft. Cody Carson – “Bye Bye Bye”

Our Last Night teamed up with Set It Off’s Cody Carson for an iconic *NSYNC collab that you’ll find yourself coming back to again and again.

10. 5SOS – “What Makes You Beautiful/One Thing”

Easily the most ironic cover, 5 Seconds Of Summer cover One Direction’s “What Makes You Beautiful” and mash it up with “One Thing.” Baby 5SOS covering 1D might be the cutest thing we’ve ever seen.

11. Boys Of Fall – “Amnesia”

Boys Of Fall take this 5SOS song and give it an alternative twist without losing the track’s emo feels that we love so much.

12. LANY – “Sign Of The Times”

Yes, we know Harry Styles isn’t a boy band, but he was part of a boy band, and LANY’s cover is amazing, so let it be. Sit back, feel the ‘80s vibes and enjoy.

13. All Time Low – “Kiwi”

OK, you can’t not put this All Time Low jam on the list. Not many bands can take a high-energy track like this one, strip it back and not lose the energy that fuels the entire song.
