NSYNC Set To Make Their Iconic Return With A New Single ‘Better Place’
Hold onto your ’90s and ’00s nostalgia, because NSYNC is back in action! Lance Bass, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick, and Justin Timberlake have come together after two decades to gift us “Better Place,” and yes, it’s every bit as good as we hoped.
“Better Place” is not just any pop track. It’s a vibrant celebration of love, full of NSYNC’s signature harmonies. The lyrics, especially lines like “Just let me take you to a better place,” evoke feelings of romantic euphoria. And while you might miss their iconic dance moves in the music video, they certainly compensated with their recent appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards. Taylor Swift, upon receiving an award from the band, was just one of many who were ecstatic to see the legendary group together again.
Taking a quirky turn, the animated film Trolls Band Together ties in with NSYNC’s return. In the film, Anna Kendrick’s character, Poppy, discovers a secret about her beau, Branch, voiced by Timberlake. Spoiler alert: Branch used to be in a hit boy band called BroZone! The storyline involves reuniting Branch with his old band members, a nod to real-life happenings.
Timberlake doesn’t just lend his voice to the film. He’s also flexing his musical muscles as one of the executive music producers. He’s contributed to several tracks on the soundtrack, which boasts performances from renowned artists such as Zooey Deschanel and Camila Cabello. And of course, “Better Place” shines bright among them.
Now, for those living under a rock, *NSYNC isn’t just a fleeting boy band. They’ve been the embodiment of pop culture, and their music has echoed through generations. After long-awaited reunions at ceremonies and award shows in previous years, it’s a dream come true for fans to have new music from the group. Their last big hit, “Girlfriend,” took the charts by storm in 2001.
The hype for “Better Place” started building when teasers from Trolls Band Together showcased snippets of the song. Their appearance at the 2023 VMAs set the stage (quite literally) for the big reveal, leaving fans and celebrities alike in a frenzy.
Ever since the buzz began, the members have actively engaged with their fandom on social media. Timberlake’s heartfelt studio session video on Instagram, capturing the band’s zeal for “Better Place,” was particularly touching.
Trolls Band Together, the third installment in the Trolls series, is set to release on November 17, 2023. But the best part? “Better Place” is already available for everyone to revel in.
