Well, this breathless British-tabloid report about a “reunion” between the 9/11 conspiracy-theorizing pop star and the boy band that helped vault him to fame seems to be based on all of them going out to dinner together in New York City, and Williams later being pap-spotted in the vicinity of New York’s Electric Lady Studios. Who knows whether it’ll result in any recorded material, or just more frothy speculation from across the pond—but hey, any limp excuse to post the video for the group’s 1995 single (and lone hit in America) “Back For Good” is OK by me! Clip after the jump.

I was always confused by Backstreet Boys first hit (in America) proclaiming that they were “back”. But this makes total sense as hubris. I hope, for their sake, that they don’t blow all their British comeback cash trying to pretend that America is going to care this time.
Problem with the tabloids is they’ve all got memories which make goldfish seem elephantine.
It’s already been announced that Gary Barlow is hosting/organising a telelvised charity gala at the Royal Albert Hall in aid of the BBC’s Children In Need appeal. Take That are appearing as you might expect and it was recently confirmed that Robbie would also be performing.
Maybe, just maybe, isn’t it a tad more likely they’re rehearsing something a little special for the night?
