After Robbie left their very next album underperformed and they went on hiatus for ten years.
After hiatus their albums became 9x and 7x platinum respectively.And all without Robbie who was one of most popular male acts in Europe.
They were succesful because of sex-factor (lke most bands)in 90's,but were able to reinvent themselves and now they are still big sellers and the second best selling male group after Beatles in UK.
How did they manage to do this?Why couldn't NSYNC and other male bands?Backstreet boys are still active but not really succesful.
