In Around the World, the Backstreet Boys take an amazing 100-hour tour in November 2000 to coincide with the release of Black & Blue. Aboard a luxury Boeing 767, the boys travel to Stockholm, Tokyo, Sydney, Cape Town, Rio De Janeiro, and New York City. Interspersed with wonderful you-are-there tour footage of these beautiful cities, and the fans, are interviews with each of the boys, who share their perspective on the trip. As the hours mount up, you can watch the boys wear down. While this is not a concert video, the boys treat their many fans to spontaneous a cappella choruses of "Shape of My Heart" throughout the tour. The one complete version of the song is compiled from these impromptu performances. Not as entertaining as All Access, this one is for fans who can't get enough Backstreet Boys. The DVD includes a postcard gallery. --Larry Clark

I was pleasantly surprised at the content of this video. In this 90 minute documentary, Not only did we get to see what it was like for them to travel the world, but you also get an indepth look at their private Boeing 767, their awesome personalities and the way they interact with each other and the thousands of fans that greeted them in each country. Along with live performances of 'Shape of My Heart'! This video is a definate must-have for any Backstreet fan who is interested in them beyond the music!

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME, October 1, 2001

This is one of the best BSB videos out right now...the MTV Diary show on the BSB left me wanting more, and this video gave me just that. You really feel like you are traveling with the BSB, and you get to see them goof around a lot, which is always fun! You realize that they are real people too, and you realize how much they love their fans. Every BSB fan should run out and get this video (or order it!) right now!!!! Oh, and KTBSPA!
