OH MY GAWD, I miss NSYNC.
Jan. 25th, 2010 07:13 pmSo, my iPod served up Pop today. Waaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! Man, the ache of missing them was physical, I kid you not. Fired up YouTube when I got home and I've been watching/listening to it pretty steadily as I've surfed.
I'm crying with love for these guys.
Chris: How cute was he as a DJ? I especially love it when he does that full swipe thing and bends over the turntable kind of sideways. I'm completely not making sense, so watch for yourself at 2:04. Chrissofer!
Lance: Other than looking completely hot, Lance doesn't do a whole lot in this one. But! Gotta give him points for the Lance Dance. Lance with his original equipment, so gorgeous...his nose, get your mind out of the gutter. 1:40
Joey: Poor mangled Joey and his accidentally crushed leg. But! There's a bright side! Instead of dancing, Joey gets to hang wid da ladeez. 1:50 Evil Wade filled in for Joey on the dancing side of things, but Evil Wade will get no links to his faux-Joey booty shaking.
Justin: He's becoming a man, but there's still a certain soft, young quality to his face just here: 1:52 Collectively, I *love* their Pop outfits.
JC!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, JC. This breaks my heart because I love you so. This to me was the height of his gorgeousness with NSync. "NSYNC's dark-haired beauty." Can't remember the reviewer who wrote that, but it's oh, so true. Ah! Here 'tis. ::le sigh:: *Love* JC's outfit. Love the hair, love the chin strip. Love JC sauntering down the Tunnel O' Sex, getting felt up 'cause he's a rock star and that's what they do. 1:22 Love his singing. Love his dancing. Love him.
They broke my heart in seventeen places. Why'd they go away? ::cries::

EXACTLY!
I wish at least Justin could make Jive release 1)The Celebrity Tour DVD and 2)a box set of all the "extra" Nsync songs - anything not on the 4 domestic releases. They could fill a 6 disc box set with that stuff. I'd buy that crap in a second!
Oh, JC in 2001 was at his most beautiful, with his long hair and his pretty clothes and his capri pants and his toe rings. Siiiiighhhh.

I think my favorite picture of him ever:

Just unbelievably crazy beautiful.

Date: 2010-01-26 02:04 am (UTC)I think all of fandom fell just a little in love with JC in 2001. :-) And yeah, as much as I love pissy JC on America's Hip Hop Hoedown (and I doooooo!), I don't see that JC either when I look at him these days. He's always been a chameleon that way, though. I remember seeing a picture where he very much resembled young JFK Jr., and doing a double take.

So. Friggin'. Frustrating. I mean, seriously, why the hell hasn't this happened!? Twenty years from now it'll be some Time-Life DVD release and I'll have a friggin' stroke from the anger, right after I throw my walker at the TV screen. ::grrrrrrr:

Date: 2010-01-26 12:59 am (UTC)The whole is/was the most frustrating thing. I was right there the whole time saying they didn't owe us an explanation, and I still believe that, and I am happy for Justin and love the boy dearly. But I so wish he'd been confident enough to reach for his own success without distancing himself from those four other guys. If we were hurt, just imagine how they felt, even as they obviously still loved him.
*sigh* Justin.
I forget that I miss them, and then I sometimes I remember.

Date: 2010-01-26 01:08 am (UTC)That's it exactly. My iPod's been serving up a lot of NSYNC lately (set to shuffle, so *I'm* not doing it!), and it's just funny how certain songs make me miss them more than others. 'Drive Myself Crazy' is my official NSYNC song, but hearing Pop today just killed me. :-(

YES. I keep thinking of his first solo appearance at the VMAs...dancing with four other guys behind him. Now *that* would have felt like a kick in the stomach had I been one of the other Syncers.

NOW I'M MAKING MYSELF ALL SAD.
WAAAAAAAAAAH. I KNOW. :-(

Yep, 'cause he's a total sweetheart, and he supported his friend...probably still supports him, but I'm blanking on the last Justin-related thing where JC appeared. Hmmmm, William Rast show, perhaps!? Good lord, I'm getting old and my brain is getting dusty. It's also entirely possible that he attended every Love/Sexy/whatever show that he could, and watched from backstage. :-)
Maybe you know...what was the last time they were seen together in public?
