What We Learn From BSB Songs – Chateau

I have not done one of these in a bit. Probably because BSB world has been a wonderful madhouse lately! And while I have other posts cooking, I also like to do fun bits like this. I’m never sure if I’m just entertaining myself or you guys as well. Hopefully you’ll laugh with me. If not, well I write for the fun and love of BSB. Anyway, since the launch of DNA it felt like I needed to over-analyze another song from the album. I already did Don’t Go Breaking My Heart, but I have to say…as much as Chateau stays in my head, I feel it deserves this treatment. Mainly because it won’t leave!

So let’s go!

 

I saw you on the corner
You look happy, happier than I do
Your hair’s a little longer
Am I crazy, is it blonder than it was than
When you walked out my house?
I didn’t say a thing, no
It’s funny how a year can fill your head with should’ve, would’ve, could’ve been

 

1. Maybe it’s because I live in Las Vegas, but seeing someone on the corner gave me some not so innocent thoughts.

2. Shame on me. Especially since prostitution while legal in Nevada, isn’t legal in Vegas.

3. Why would I be happy if I was with a Backstreet Boy and now I’m not? I’d be sadder.

4. This is literally one of two tracks on this album that fixates on hair and I’m curious as to why.

5. You should’ve said something! Why did whoever it was keep going?!

6. A year can change a lot of things. I’ll give you that.

 

Took my words, wrote them down, threw them out
And now there’s only five left to tell you

 

7. So you don’t have more words?

8. I didn’t know you could empty your head like that.

 

Baby, I want you back
There’s a space in my bed
In the shape of your head
I said it, what if I said it?
Baby, I want you back
Would you come back around?
‘Cause I need you right now
I said it, there, I said it
Baby, I want you back

 

9. This damn chorus will be in my head for hours after I’m done.

10. There’s head shaped spaces in your bed? Okay…wouldn’t it be your pillow?

11. Why are you asking what if, if you already said it? Why do Backstreet songs give me so many questions?

12. I don’t know about her but I’d be back so fast I’d probably crash into you.

13. No, really, I’d literally trample you.

 

Would you meet me at the chateau?
At a table, I’d get your favorite chardonnay, yeah
‘Cause babe, you know, a bottle is a little bit too much to drink alone
We could catch up, make out, make up
‘Cause I don’t wanna go (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Another day without you, come on

 

14. I feel like the Chateau night club is obligated to play this at every after party. It’s a crime that they don’t.

15. You already have us with you, we don’t need alcohol but we wouldn’t say no.

16. You don’t have to be alone.

17. This is sounding better and better as the song goes on.

 

Baby, I want you back
There’s a space in my bed (In my bed)
In the shape of your head (Of your head)
I said it, what if I said it? (Yeah)
Baby, I want you back (I want you)
Would you come back around? (Around)
‘Cause I need you right now
I said it, there, I said it (Yeah)
Baby, I want you back (Woo)

 

18. I need Backstreet Boys trying to romance me back. Or a man very similar to a Backstreet Boy. Or a Backstreet Clone. Not picky.

19. This song is a ridiculously smooth plead for forgiveness.

Woah-oh, oh-oh
Woah-oh, oh-oh, at the chateau
Baby, I want you back
Woah-oh, oh-oh
Woah-oh, oh-oh, at the chateau
Baby, I want you back

Took my words, wrote them down, threw them out
And now there’s only five left to tell you

 

20. I still want to know how you got rid of words in your brain.

21. WAIT you’ve said more than five words since the first time you said that! So this is a lie!

22. I’m too lazy to count but this is a lot more than five words!

23. Honestly though, I’m too charmed by this song to be…that outraged.

24. Just enough to harp on it for several numbers though.

Baby, I want you back (Yeah)
There’s a space in my bed
In the shape of your head
I said it, what if I said it? (Yeah)
Baby, I want you back (Yeah)
Would you come back around?
‘Cause I need you right now (Need you right now)
I said it, there, I said it (Yeah)
Baby, I want you back

Woah-oh, oh-oh (Baby, would you meet me)
Woah-oh, oh-oh, at the chateau
Baby, I want you back
Woah-oh, oh-oh (Baby, would you meet me)
Woah-oh, oh-oh, at the chateau
Woah-oh, oh-oh
Woah-oh, oh-oh, at the chateau
Baby, would you meet me at the chateau?
Baby, I want you back (Oh, woah)
Woah-oh, oh-oh (Baby, would you meet me)
Woah-oh, oh-oh, at the chateau
Baby, I want you back

 

25. Anyone able to resist this has the will of a warrior. Period.

26. Let’s go down to Chateau!

Overall Lesson: Backstreet Boys are smooth beyond belief. Also, they may have mastered some random form of meditation that helps them delete all but five words? I’m not too sure cause they kept saying other words. End result though is the fact that if one of the Boys ever said these words to me or anyone else…let’s be real, we would be like…OKAY I FORGIVE YOU.

Also this song is a damn ear-worm that I’ll end up singing at the drop of a hat for the rest of my life from the looks of it.
