Which NSYNC songs are criminally underrated? Lance Bass says…

NSYNC were undoubtedly one of the most popular music groups of the 90s and early 2000s, dominating the charts with hit singles like “Bye Bye Bye” and “It’s Gonna Be Me.” Despite their success, there are a few songs that the band members Low spear thinks he deserves more love from fans. During a new interview about the boy band’s career and extensive catalog, Bass also explained which song from the group was his favorite to record.

Talk with PEOPLEBass, 46, said one NSYNC song that is generally “overlooked” is the 2000 hit “It Makes Me Ill.” The track appears on the group’s album “No Strings Attached,” which reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and has since sold more than 12 million copies.

According to Bass, his love for “It Makes Me Ill” was so strong that he advocated for it to be one of the group’s singles; however, it was ultimately overshadowed by “I’ll Never Stop” and “This I Promise You”.

“‘It Makes Me Ill’ is, to this day, my favorite song outside of Christmas,” he told the publication, calling the single “awesome” and “fun.”

Bass also pointed out how the song is one of the group’s most popular among men. “Well, it’s funny because it’s like all the guys who like *NSYNC, I can tell you about 80 percent of the time, they’re like, ‘It makes me sick.’ It’s kind of our favorite song from our guys,” he said.

Elsewhere in the interview, Bass highlighted another underrated gem from the band’s discography: the acapella track “O Holy Night.”

He added: “It’s my favorite recording we’ve ever done – I did it. I love it because it takes us back to how we started in 1995. Just no music, just our voices, and that’s how we started. That one, I love.”

The holiday-themed track is from the band’s only Christmas album, “Home for Christmas.” It was released in November 1998 and also featured classics such as “The First Noel” and “The Christmas Song.”

Bass also took a moment to reflect about his time with the popular boy band, including some of their most memorable looks. And while there are a few that the singer looks back on fondly, there are several that he could have done without.

“It’s so funny, because living in the 90s, I always thought fashion was horrible. I just remember [thinking]’Really? Is this what we do? Even then I was like, ‘This doesn’t feel good,'” he said.

However, even Bass has noticed some ’90s trends making a comeback.

“Everything was so oversized and all that, but now it’s so funny that this style is back, and I appreciate it more now,” he said. “I’m like, ‘Okay, maybe that was pretty cool.’ Yes, I’ve grown to appreciate ’90s fashion, especially now, so I’m glad it’s back.”
