We’ve all jammed out to a boy band at one time or another.
The term “boy bands” was not coined until the 1980s, but bands composed of all young male singers have been around since long before that. In this video, this boy band does an evolution reenacting every decade of boy bands since the 1960s.
These kids all have some serious talent!

The group is called Road Trip, and they posted the performance to their YouTube channel RoadTripTV, which has more than 1.3 million subscribers.
Formed in 2015, the English/Irish group made their claim to fame by covering the music of popular artists.
In this video, Road Trip does an awesome evolution of boybands from the ’60s onward.
They start with “Let It Be” by The Beatles before moving on to “I’m A Believer” by The Monkees. Not only do they sing the legendary songs, but they also change their outfits to match the era.
That’s when they switch to “ABC” by The Jackson Five and mimic Michael Jackson’s iconic high notes.
After that, the group changes outfits again and begins singing “Bye Bye Baby” from 1975 by the Bay City Rollers before moving on to “Please Don’t Go Girl” by New Kids On The Block, released in 1988.
When they start doing “The End Of The Road” by Boyz II Men from 1991, all five members of Road Trip showcase their powerful vocals.
Next, they change into some hilarious ’90s clothing, before singing “Back For Good” by boy band Take That.
Road Trip moves on to one of the most popular boy bands of all, singing ‘I Want It That Way” by The Backstreet Boys.
Keeping it in the ’90s, they transition to “Flying Without Wings” by Westlife. Then it’s time for the mother of all boy bands: NSYNC.
When they start singing “Bye Bye Bye,” they even include some of the iconic choreography— including the classic hand closing gesture!
They start jumping around like madmen when it’s time for “Year 3000” by the Jonas Brothers.
It’s a Jonas Brothers fest when Road Trip does two of their hits back to back, the second one being “Burnin’ Up.” After that, they move on to one of the more recent boy bands in One Direction.
Their voices just get better and better—especially when they start singing “You Don’t Know You’re Beautiful” by One Direction.
Road Trip’s grand finale and last song on their evolution of boy bands is their own hit “No You’re Never Gonna Walk Alone.”
At the very end of the video, it flashes to all the different decades of music before it suddenly ends. Road Trip absolutely killed this evolution of boy bands—it couldn’t have been any more perfect!
People on the internet agreed.
The video spread like wildfire and was watched by millions of music lovers from all around the world. It’s easy to see why so many people loved it. Road Trip did an excellent job!
Road Trip’s evolution of boy bands video has been viewed over three million times, with 83,000 people liking it.
Over 12,000 people also left comments for the talented boy band, praising their ability to cover all those songs so flawlessly.
Road Trip did a wonderful job of paying homage for those who paved the way for them, but it’s fair to say they are the ones running the show now.
