Ultimate Backstreet Boys Media Blogspot: I´ll Never Break Your Heart

"I'll Never Break Your Heart" is a single by the Backstreet Boys from their self-titled debut album. It was later included on their US debut album as well. The song was released in 1996 internationally, and subsequently was re-released in 1997 and 1998 off of the U.S. debut. The song peaked at #35 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the U.S. , but fared better on the adult contemporary chart, where it became the group's first #1 song on this chart.[1] Outside the U.S., the song peaked at #8 on the UK Singles Chart and also went to the Top 10 in Australia, Germany, The Netherlands, Sweden and Switzerland. The song replaced "I'll Never Find Someone Like You" on the album, which was to be the band's first single. The band's label, Jive Records, had not committed to using the song for the band, and as a result, it was offered to singer Keith Martin, who accepted it and released it as a single on the Bad Boys soundtrack, and his own albums It's Long Overdue and All the Hits. Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell supposedly discovered this when he heard Martin's song play on the radio one day.[2] "I'll Never Break Your Heart" was supposedly recorded over two weeks, because Littrell and A. J. McLean, the two lead vocalists on the song, had colds.[2] Spanish vocals for the song, titled "Nunca Te Haré Llorar", were later recorded in Zurich along with a Spanish verison of "Anywhere For You".[2]

MUSIC VIDEO

Two music videos were released for "I'll Never Break Your Heart". The video released in conjunction with the original single release follows a group of girls, one of whom has just broken up with her boyfriend as explained in the video's preface. The band members are on a ski vacation, and each partners up with one of the girls. Brian Littrell attempts to get together with the girl who has just broken up. The girl Kevin Richardson is matched with was his then-girlfriend and now-wife Kristin Willits.
In 1998, a second video was released for the US market. The video features each band member singing in their own uniquely styled apartment which are stacked atop one another in a tall building. Late in the video, each of the the members is shown to have a girl their apartment. The group is also shown singing together in a cylindrical tunnel which has a rotating round porthole at the near end, though which the camera observes. A version of the video was also released for the Spanish version of the song. The dog in Littrell's apartment was actually his dog, and the girl in his apartment was his then-girlfriend, now-wife Leighanne Wallace.
