My favourite four time Grammy loser 🥰

Ik he's sketchy and silly looking as shit but 'technically' I'm supposed to be revising for my GCSEs which is literally tomorrow so I just wanted to get it out of my head :3

Proud of how his face looks though, I think me doing all those Papa paintings has made me get his face down to semi decent. Don't ask why he looks so worried, he doesn't know either.

Backstreet Boys - I Want It That Way 1999

"I Want It That Way" is a song by American vocal group Backstreet Boys. It was released as the lead single from their third studio album, Millennium (1999). It was written by Swedish hitmakers Max Martin and Andreas Carlsson. Max Martin has written or co-written 26 Billboard Hot 100 number-one songs, most of which he has also produced or co-produced. He is the songwriter with the second-most number-one singles on the chart, behind only Paul McCartney (32) and tied with John Lennon (26 both). In addition, he currently holds the record for the most Hot 100 number-one songs as a producer, with 24 as of January 2024. Congrats! 🥳

"I Want It That Way" was nominated for three Grammy Awards, including Song and Record of the Year. The music video received four MTV Video Music Awards nominations, winning Viewer's Choice. It became the group's first music video to surpass one billion views on YouTube in 2021.

"I Want It That Way" is the Backstreet Boys' signature song, and commercially it reached the number-one spot in more than 25 countries, including Austria, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Switzerland and the UK.

The song was famously used in the cold open of the Brooklyn Nine-Nine season 5 episode "DFW". Andy Samberg's character has a police lineup sing the song to help a victim identify a killer.

"I Want It That Way" received a total of 82% yes votes!

Edit: seeing a few people saying they can't vote for the nominee option because they know a winner (can we be friends btw) and I'm here to say that counts! They had to be nominated to win, y'all.

𖤐 Encyclopedia of Terzo 𖤐

I've been thinking a lot about how the personality of Papa III was created. Tobias set the basic framework, the archetype, the cliché from which he drew. But the real implementation of Papa was on stage, where his image developed through improvisation. Some things were conceived on purpose, some were invented on the spot, some came out unplanned, due to circumstances. Papa turned out to be as lively and unpredictable as life itself. In many senses, he lived on stage.

Thanks to the research of concerned fans, there is quite a lot of material. It occurred to me to collect them in one post for those who want to get acquainted with the canonical image of Terzo. This catalogue uses materials from two users, Cityofmeliora's and myself. You can use them for fanfiction or just for your own amusement. So, allow me to introduce Papa Emeritus III!

Cityofmeliora: Transcriptions and facts

Radley @cityofmeliora has an academic degree in Terzo Studies. He did a great job watching probably 100% of the Terzo videos and bringing us some interesting insights about his personality from the Terzo mines.

au where much is made of the bromance between Kronprins Wilhelm and beloved Swedish musician Simon Eriksson (he's not a popstar as such, but he's established and respected and often writes and arranges for bigger names), and then Wilhelm goes on the Swedish version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire for a charity week and when he uses the phone a friend option Simon Eriksson picks up, and Wilhelm greets him, "Hej, älskling," and no one ever really remembers the actual question ("who won the first ever Music Video of the Year Grammi") because did the Kronprins just come out or does he call all his friends älskling??
