Exciting news! NSYNC has made a comeback! The well-known pop band, consisting of Chris Kirkpatrick, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone, Justin Timberlake, and Lance Bass, has just dropped their first song together in more than two decades. This fresh tune, titled “Better Place”, is part of the upcoming Trolls Band Together movie soundtrack.
Fans have been really excited about this since the group announced their reunion and the song back in August.
“Better Place”, is a fun pop song that reminds us of the boy bands from the 90s and 00s, but it has a modern twist with a disco-pop beat.
In the song, each member of the group gets to show off their skills, and even though Justin Timberlake is now 42 years old, he still leads the chorus and sounds great.
In the song, the singer says, ” Just let me take you to a better place/ I’m gonna make you kiss the sky tonight/ Yeah if you let me show the way/ I’m so excited to see you excited”, creating a joyful and fantastic experience for both who love the artist and those who are hearing them for the forest time.
What’s more to know
While NYSC has reunited before, like for their Hollywood Walk of Fame event in 2018 and to celebrate Justin Timberlake’s Video Vanguard Award at the 2013 MTV VMAs, this is the very first time they have put out a new song together.
NYC’s last song release before this new one was “Girlfriend”, which was part of their 2001 album “Celebrity”. They teamed up with Nelly for this track, and it was released as a single in early 2002. It did well on the charts, reaching as high as No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and it was their last song to achieve that level of success.
