I think the most significant moment in BSB history is when they broke through in the United States. As a Canadian fan, although they were all over Muchmusic and YTV's Hit List here, suddenly they were being embraced by the U.S. media. On top of seeing them on Canadian music shows, I could now see them on "Live with Regis and Kathie-lee" and all kinds of other shows! My VCR was very busy taping all of these appearances! I'm excited to see what 2018 holds for the guys! KTBSPA!

The most significant moment in BSB history in my opinion is when AJ finally sought out help for his addiction. Even though the boys were dealing with it behind the scenes, it was almost unreal until they had to finally speak about it to the public. This was a make or break point for them. But they decided to be by his side as he got help instead of leaving him to deal alone. It not only showed their support as a group for one another but also their character as individuals. They wanted to make it as a team and by enduring that time with AJ they were successful in life and in their career.

I can't say if it is the most significant moment, but from my perspective I would say fighthing against Lou Pearlman for the rights to own everything related to BSB, thanks to that you guys became stronger and you are keeping the Backstreet Pride Alive 25 years later. Thanks for fighting and never giving up.

Love you BSB!! KTBSPA

The most significant moment in BSB History is when the boys decided to continue being together even when Kevin Richardson decided to take a short break. At that moment it would have being very easy to take separated roads and forget about the BSB Pride but they decided to Keep it and that is why we are here now, 25 years later with the 5 of them back again. This shows us the true meaning of being real team players, supporting each other through thick and thin!!!! I admire you from the beginning and I will continue doing so forever. Love from a Greek Girl living in Ireland.

I think the most significant moment in Backstreet Boys history was when they made it to their 20th Anniversary and now their 25th Anniversary. Most boy bands take a break or have disbanded over the years before getting back together but the Backstreet Boys have continued working since they began in 1993. As we approach 25 years, it shows how much not only talent they have but also how amazing they are that 25 years we are still going strong with an amazing fandom who support and love these boys. The boys have been through a lot over the past 25 years but they continue to push on and exceed so many peoples expectations but 25 years and their still going strong. There was no breakups, no disbandment, even when kevin left for those few years (or the dark years as many of us call it) the other 4 continue going strong. So to me their achievement is that they can say that they have been together 25 years as a band and that 25 years they have continued to prove their talent, how kind they are and how much they adore their fans.

The most significant moment in BSB history in my mind takes me back to the very beginning when AJ McLean, Brian Littrell, Howie Dorough, Kevin Richardson and Nick Carter decided to join a boy band calling themselves The Backstreet Boys. The rest (is as they say) history!!!

Their music is an inspiration for everyone who is facing difficult life challenges and brings people together no matter what age, race, creed or color from all over the world. If there were a United Nations of Music -- The Backstreet Boys would definitely be Ambassadors.

Thank you Backstreet Boys for your music and love as you celebrate your 25th Anniversary in 2018. You have definitely left a Permanent Stain on my heart. You are still going strong & I will continue to Keep the Backstreet Pride Alive (KTBPA)!

I think the most significant and wonderful moment was when the release of the milimium album. I remember getting home from school and turning on TRL on MTV and seeing the video for the first time Larger than Life. Backstreet Boys are the heart of my childhood. I love them just as much if not more now as an adult too. I will always be a Backstreet Boy fan at heart no matter what age I am. Ever since I was little I always said the first job I got, I would save money from my job and go to a backstreet concert. I have been to 2 so far in each time I was jumping up and down as high as I could so Brian can see me. Both times he did see me jump up and down and mimicked me at the first concert and Wheatland California. I cried immediately when he saw me. My next goal in life which hopefully will be accomplished in 2018 is to go to another Backstreet Boy concert in enjoy the VIP meet-and-greet with them. That is my new years resolution for sure.
Love you BSB for life!!!!

For me the most significant moment in Backstreet Boys history is when they started to have cruises, VIPs and soundcheck parties, it meant that our dream(s) of meeting them, interacting with them in person is within our reach. It may cost a lot, but still attainable. It meant making more memories, meeting new friends, and people we talk to online in person. Sharing our dream with the people who understands us and speaks the same Backstreet Language is priceless.

I would say it was when brian had to have open heart surgery because they stayed together no matter what happened
