PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE PLAY THEIR VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!
They have never gone,never far,in our heart is where they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
I love bsb, and I always will. I knew there was something wrong when the new videos werent making it onto trl...this has to stop. I refuse to watch mtv now!
Hey I love their new image... and by me liking them now I am scoring some with the ladies... Keep them on! If they deserve to be played by popular demand, you can't denied your viewers what they want.
we're tired of stupid skinny half naked talentless girl
this is one of the most succesful vocal group ever, and they have tons of fans all around the world we deserve clean good music, and we want it.
nobody can take your place...
mtv,you can't refuses to play backstreet boys' mv.
how can you do that to the boys?why don't you do that to justin timberlake orjesse mccartney?
it's unfair!!
I grew up listening to BSB, and now I see my little sister getting the chance to grow up with them. They are an amazing successful talented band that deserves to be respected as one. Lets support one of the few bands that have a fun, innocent, talented image.
MTV (and all the other shows owned by the same company, MTV2 VH1 CMT and Nickelodeon) are off my watch list until MTV pull thier heads out of their BUTTS and show BSB!!!
No puedo creer lo que MTV esta haciendo, nunca me lo hubiera imaginado, es injusto no solo para ellos si no que para nosotras tambien, y lo que dicen que no quieren pop eso no es verdad Kelly Clarkson es pop, Jesse McCartney es pop, Hilary Duff es pop asi que no tienen pretexto para no poner a los BSB. No se que gana MTV con lo que esta haciendo, no es junto. Pongan a los BSB!!!

I'm not a fan, but I'm signing anyway.If they got the votes, play the video, MTV shouldn't decide what we get to hear, and MTV, while ur listening, play some hardcore metal videos every once in awhile you pansies.

Baaaadddd MTV!
Ok, so I heard that MTV was not playing the Backstreet Boys Just Want You to Know vid because they simply do not want to. MTV was quoted as saying that THEY do not want to play it because THEY don't want Pop to make a come back! Well... WHO THE F@!* DO THEY THINK THEY ARE??? I say we bury them in letters telling them what WE think, what WE want. After all if it were not for the viewers there'd be no MTV (MTV2 or VH1 or CMT or even Nickelodeon, since they are all owned by the same company). Aren't we the ones who are supposed to decide what is popular? I didn't hear MTV complaining when the BSB and other Pop singers brought the viewers and ratings! And what is wrong with Pop? Why do we even have to put music or people into a genre or catagory? Aren't MTV/VH1/Media the ones who labled these "Boys" who, TRUST ME, 5th row center at their concert last night THESE AINT BOYS NO MORE in the first place? E mail them, post messages or whatever it takes (unless you are just the good little robot they are hoping you are!!!) P.S. I am a fan of all kinds of music. I saw the BSB last night, am going to see Alice Cooper in 2 weeks, Green Day after that and Sir Paul McCartney in Nov. I have over 1000 cd's and they range from BSB and Bon Jovi, Aerosmith and Heart to MoonSpell (Very heavy, doom and gloom) to Elvis, Avril Lavigne to Type O Negative (again very heavy)... Did I just admit all that?
I am so shocked. I cannot believe that MTV would do this. The Backstreet Boys have given them so much. MTV has no right to control what people want to listen to, and the people want to listen to BSB!
TRL officially sucks, i honestly stopped watching trl because carson left, BSB rocked trl and carson always played the video, fuck trl, and fuck mtv, you just dont want to admit the BSB is the hottest boy band around. TRL obviously doesnt mean total REQUEST live! KTBSPA!
backstreet boys have made mtv/trl what it is today! 'shape of my heart' holds the record for most days @ #1. backstreet fans have shutdown times square TWICE when they came to the studio. BSB won countless vmas nominations, wins, & performances. i thought a music channel would be happy to see the BEST act in the world release new music. Backstreet boys deserveto be played on mtv. KTBSPA!
I love MTV, I watch all your shows but the fact that you will not play my favorite band really pisses me off. You suck badly. The Backstreet Boys and their fans made TRL what it is today. Who are you to choose what we want to watch. They are getting the votes so put them on. Until you start playing BSB my friends and I will boycott MTV. Keep the Backstreet Pride Alive!!!
YO SIMPLEMENTE NO ME LO PUEDO CREER...GRACIAS A MTV TENIA UNO D MIS MEJORES RECUERDOS K FUE PODER VER A NICK CARTER EN PERSONA! Y AHORA NOS HACEN ESTO...ME PARECE TAN INJUSTO! K HAN EXO ELLOS PARA MERECER K LOS CENSUREN?? TANTO K HAN TRABAJO EN ESTE NUEVO ALBUM PARA ESTO! k ASKO DE VERDAD... SE ACABO MTV PARA MI!!!
mtv, rise above this shallow behavior. play the music as it is requested. i can't believe you would go so low as to "censor" what you show. you're a bunch of nazi's
MTV should be ashamed of themselves...the Backstreet Boys helped make TRL what it is today. Who do you guys think you are to decide what America should watch or what music they should enjoy?
You guys have some nerve!!Not playin the backstreet boys is a bunch of bull.. you dont want pop to comeback??? then i dont wanna see any britney spears wannabees and whatnot on your show.. if you dont play BSB then dont play them either!!
why wouldn't you play the backstreet boys?
they are the coolest guys on the planet.
and i totally agree with the petition- writer .
mtv IS supposed to play music, not crappy half ass shows that are boring and pointless. and bsb is extremely successful and ignoring the votes of hardcore fans is unfair.
