I refuse to believe that I am the only one who as a kid LOVED this song then got older and listened to it again, realized what they're saying, and went "Now, wait a minute!!!"
Lmfao! I came to the comments hoping I wasn’t the only one thinking this! They literally say “Someone else who loves me And trusts me fast asleep She's been good to me And she deserves better than that”
This song isn't about cheating. Unfortunately this song is about falling out of love with someone you genuinely thought you were in love with. Sadly, sometimes. The only way to reasonably end a relationship like that is to cut all ties and don't turn back. It helps to get over something like that fast. That's why the video is him boxing, he's fighting the urge to stay to avoid the inevitable pain.
@@dbongoloid9541 The song is about a guy who has a wife at home and a mistress on the side, and it's his struggle with breaking it off with his mistress even though he loves her more, mainly because he has somebody at home relying on him and he can't let them down.... so, it is 100% about a cheating asshole, but it's little bit deeper than that, as well..

Facts. There's some sort of poetic justice that a second-tier copycat candy pop boy band released a song that can hit so deep and differently depending on your stage in life. 18-year-old me thought the "protagonist" of the song was an a*hole. Now 20 years later, I'm like yeah...I totally get where the dude is coming from. Haha.
They're not kidding when they say it's the hardest thing to tell someone that you care about them but you don't really love them; especially if they're really good people. It's so hard and so painful but it must be done to protect the other person's heart.
the hardest thing was saying goodbye to too my son but i know he is in heaven with god i have a beautiful angel thank you Jesus for letting me be his mom can't wait to see you again in heaven
in 90's it was a battle of the boy bands backstreet boys in 90's were not part a battle of the boys stode the test of music did their own music so battle of the boy bands end in early 2000's all the 90's boy bands went nowhere some just disapear from music all together and others just could not keep up with music changes just break up but backstreet boys who were not part of battle of the boy bands stode the test of music time and last known 90's boy band stayed together and stright into 2000's music changes and open doors for boy bands like one dirction and other 2000's unknown to come by do their own music
@@annamariapiotrowicz511 I agree very true.BSB is thier before and after all boybands and thier going to stay as long as we love them and as long as they can still making music and can perform for us..
It was 1999, I was 12, we were poor and couldn't afford a pool. So I filled up a very small tub in the bathroom and soaked myself in it. I had this song playing on my walkman, closed my ears and felt the water around me in a hot afternoon. This song takes me back to that tub every time I listen to it. One of the happiest moments in my life.
Teen days is when you realize how this song is so beautiful because he's giving up a girl that he loves so much, adult days is when you realize that this song is about a two timer asshole who just realized his mistake hurting not only himself but two other person in the process. Ahh such nostalgia.
No that's a totally wrong interpretation. He's not on the side cheating with a bimbo- he's not able to connect with his true love because of life circumstance (already comitted). Its heart wrenching and beautiful.
No it doesn’t. The only line that be construed as cheating is “we both know I shouldn’t be here” implying he’s together at some place physically with her. Even that doesn’t mean they committed the act because other lines show that he is committed to someone else and can’t go forward with it. You can love someone without fucking them for crying out loud. Women...
My God father/uncle gave me their 98 and rising album when I was 12-13 and I just kept playing it like a broken record, lol. The good old days when music was actually good. You don't find these types of music anymore these days...
this song reminds me of a girl, we had this amazing 6 year journey through life togeather,we were just in our early teens i moved into her neighbour hood and she lived up the street, one night she was babysetting her little brother and her parents were out (after her bro went to bed), me and her made out to this song for hours on repeat, we havent talked sense 2003, but ill never forget that moment....... I wonder if she ever stops by here.
Mine is similar. I grew up with these twins. Normally most boys would want both but I was drawn to only one of them. I had to change schools because my grades were horrible. I ran into the one I was drawn to at a store. Normally I would get shy around her. This time I wasn’t. She talked switching to my new school. That’s when I said no stay. I care about her so passionately but I wanted her to succeed. I didn’t know she was pregnant. How if she had came to my new school we probably would’ve gotten together and I’d probably be daddy to her daughter. I still run into her occasionally. We can’t lock eyes cause we could see into each other’s souls.
i shared this song with my girl when we split and went on to achieve our "goals" in separate regions. I told her to watch the video carefully because in the end they get back together
I fell in love with a girl i can never have. I kept telling myself this same thing, so that i can convince myself to let her go..still bring me to tears whenever i listen to this song.

ABSOLUTELY MASSIVE classic from the good ole boyband days. Loved this song back then and even took fashion cues from this video for my outfits at parties LOL teenage years were a lot of fun back then
The kind of song that will make you smile while you bow down your head slowly while stirring on your coffee then your friends eventually noticed and ask you what's wrong? Either you remember someone or remember something in the past lol
98 Degrees are the white version of Boyz II Men no doubt. The golden era of R & B the 1990s. The best ever!!!!! You can't make extraordinary emotional songs like this no more. Amazing music from a bygone era.
Fun Fact: 98 Degrees snuck backstage and sung for Boyz II Men. Thats how they got discovered and eventually was signed to Motown records. The only white artists at Motown during that time
i miss their amazing songs the 98 degrees when i was a kid they really don't make song as good as the 98 Degrees anymore but their amazing songs will live on I love to listening too all of their biggest hits.
Backstreet Boys were my number 1 back in the day but 98 degrees admittedly had great voices. Despite all the cheese in 90s pop there were quite a few great voices in the genre.
Backstreet Boys were the best to me because each member in the group had a great voice and had no lead singer they all got to sing. 98 degrees had some good songs but it was all about Nick. N*sync was all about Justin and sometimes JC.
Omg I had listened to this song on a MTV millennium hits cassette when I was 13. I started singing along, even though I'm listening to this after 18 years. What wouldn't I give to go back to being a kid. 🥺
Just now realized what the song was about...lol. apparently i never listened closely back in my preteen days.....he's telling his side chick he loves her but has to let her go and do right by his girl. WOW...lol
Haha right!!? As I was paying close attention to the lyrics, I was thinking like, is this right?! This was wat I was jamming to back in the 90's? Lol, still love it though. Old memories.
Seriously, LOL.. somehow I overlooked the first few lyrics, & just attached the rest of the song to Dimitri's pov when leaving Anya in *Anastasia*, haha ("for her own good, cuz she'd be better off without me" which I now kno as "noble idiot syndrome", thank you Kdramas!) so it always just reminded me of ~that angst.. xD
OMG same! Been a looooooong time since i've heard this when i was in my preteens. On a whim decided to listen to this again and listened to the lyrics. Now i'm like, eh................... I looked in the comments to see if the same happened to anyone else lmao
"The Hardest Thing" We both know that I shouldn't be here This is wrong And baby it's killin' me, it's killin' you Both of us tryin' to be strong I've got somewhere else to be Promises to keep Someone else who loves me And trusts me fast asleep I've made up my mind There is no turning back She's been good to me And she deserves better than that It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do To look you in the eye And tell you I don't love you It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to lie To show no emotion When you start to cry I can't let you see What you mean to me When my hands are tied And my heart's not free We're not meant to be It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do To turn around and walk away Pretending I don't love you I know that we'll meet again Fate has a place and time So you can get on with your life I've got to be cruel to be kind Like Dr. Zhivago All my love I'll be sending And you will never know 'Cause there can be no happy ending [Chorus] Maybe another time, another day As much as I want to, I can't stay I've made up my mind There is no turning back She's been good to me And she deserves better than that [Chorus]
My question is why am I still in love with this song Lee's boys and I'm 34 years old I remember the song coming out first day you made me fall in love with it the sound of the voices caressed my heart immediately
I love this song so much. I miss Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson together. Kids today will NEVER know how much these songs meant to us‼️ Forever love this song💙💖♥️💖💙💜💚💖♥️💖💚💖💙
I can't let you see what you mean to me when my hands are tied and my heart's not free.... We're not meant to be.... It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do ---- To turn around and walk away pretending I don't love you. 😢💔
25 years ago I was married to a woman that I should not have married. I can remember being in a parking lot picking up a pizza when this song came on. I sat and listened to the entire song, and realized I needed to end the marriage. She was the wrong person at the wrong time. The song was a god shot for me.
Ahhh i was 20 at this time..im so happy i get to experience life in that generation...sometimes i wondered how i made it til today..😂😂 now im happily married with a son
I saw 98° at the 1998 "NFL experience" in San Diego, which was an event that took place next to the superbowl. There was all of maybe 10 people in the crowd. We all got signed CDs and got to meet them. I became a HUGE fan after that. I can't believe they are still putting out music all these years later.
I truly believe that the 90's was the last era of good music. It's only gonna get worse. I feel so bad for this generation and the next. They won't know good quality music like we did, that's why I let my 12 yr old listen to other kinds of music than what they play today.
indeed . i believe that you are doing a great job at that because newly made music has only corrupted the minds of the youth , and music should only increase knowledge and appreciation of life .
If that day when chronic leukemia gets the best of me even though I been fighting this deadly disease for now over 5 years I shared a post on 98 degrees music video on you tube it's all because of you about me being the only athlete in 7th grade at 14 years old knowing all the boy band songs and told not to stop singing by the other athletes. Well this is to more years until that day comes when the hardest thing is I'll ever have to do is celebrate my victory when God calls me home. But until then this fight continues forever!
This song means that a person can love more than one person but time will tell whom you're probably supposed to be with. Destiny has played by its own rules
I don't care what everyone says, this is a straight HOOD classic.
"HOOD" yea sure kid. Go back home to your "cul de sac" and act like you're from "da hood"
Certified
@Andrew-xi8jf that makes no sense.

@@baggergurl16 no they weren't, they put themselves together
Their voices were pretty good but their songs were so vastly inferior to BSB and *NSYNC, they never had a chance.

they are white version of boyz II men

They dont show many boy band bodies now a days and when they do they have flat bodies.
in 90's it was a battle of the boy bands
backstreet boys in 90's were not part a battle of the boys
stode the test of music did their own music
so battle of the boy bands end in early 2000's
all the 90's boy bands went nowhere
some just disapear from music all together and others just could not keep up with music changes just break up
but backstreet boys who were not part of battle of the boy bands
stode the test of music time and last known 90's boy band
stayed together and stright into 2000's music changes
and open doors for boy bands like one dirction and other 2000's unknown to come by do their own music

Music in the 90s was really good compared to music nowadays.
15+ years later and I still remember all the words
Actually this song is like 17 years old. it came out in the year 2000.
I think actually it came out in 98, when boy bands were huge and upcoming.
I have all the albums and I sing them in my car on my way home from work. Love them always!!!
in this generation i dont understand why 90's music dont get appreciated rather than music that they dont understand the language

The kind of song that will make you smile while you bow down your head slowly while stirring on your coffee then your friends eventually noticed and ask you what's wrong? Either you remember someone or remember something in the past lol
😢😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤是什么意思😮😊
….Yeh
My absolute favorite “boy band” song lol!!! The music and harmonies are so beautiful!! ❤️😊
Same girl and Nick is so sexy 😋🤤
These were the happiest times of my life. Nothing today comes close.
Daing, I had forgotten all about them till today when I saw them on TikTok. Brings me back to the HS years for sure.... WOW
This beautiful song is so heartache to hear
Prince Hotaru yes it is knowing at some point it just wasn’t the right time
Happy 20th anniversary to this song. Doesn't feel like it has been that long. Great memories of 1999.
2021 still can't forget the hardest thing..with high school love life...missing those days...
We here and this song hit like it is just released. Back in the day when they made music out of talent, passion and love something fans can relate to.
Here in 2024 favorite of 98 degrees Nick lachey is gorgeous and is timeless. Wonderful video as well❤xoxo Nick lachey
nick's regurgitating bird move is so heartfelt.
😂🤣😂🤣
98 Degrees are the white version of Boyz II Men no doubt.
The golden era of R & B the 1990s. The best ever!!!!!
You can't make extraordinary emotional songs like this no more.
Amazing music from a bygone era.
We actually have the same thoughts.. Boyz2Men & 98 degrees are great!
Very true they are as close as you can get to boys 2 men
Fun Fact: 98 Degrees snuck backstage and sung for Boyz II Men. Thats how they got discovered and eventually was signed to Motown records. The only white artists at Motown during that time
Noo. Backstreet Boys r the white version on boys 2 Men. lol & it's always like that
yes!!!! I agree
i miss their amazing songs the 98 degrees when i was a kid they really don't make song as good as the 98 Degrees anymore but their amazing songs will live on I love to listening too all of their biggest hits.
lagu jaman SMA (1999) nih, masih enak aja di dengerin tahun 2022. Thanks guys for your song.
ada org indo jg hehe
Love this music video! The lights, boxing ring, showgirls! 98° had some really good music videos! Kudos to the creative director!
Backstreet Boys were my number 1 back in the day but 98 degrees admittedly had great voices. Despite all the cheese in 90s pop there were quite a few great voices in the genre.
Cheesy for sure lol it was just something fun about it though
Backstreet Boys were the best to me because each member in the group had a great voice and had no lead singer they all got to sing. 98 degrees had some good songs but it was all about Nick. N*sync was all about Justin and sometimes JC.
98 degrees has the best songs for me, it gets me excited. bsb/nsync songs are songs that make you emotional.
I miss the days of 90s boy bands. Things were easier back then :)
Courtney Baxter they had so many great boy bands it was so hard to choose glad I never had to 90s music was awesome
90's Flashback for all of us 30+ year old phucks! ✌🥰😁
Omg I had listened to this song on a MTV millennium hits cassette when I was 13. I started singing along, even though I'm listening to this after 18 years. What wouldn't I give to go back to being a kid. 🥺
I miss real music like this
Tyree Sims tell me about it this was one of my favorite groups of the late 90s
Your pic lol
mѧяıє ţһѧţ ıs mє Westside Connection bro 😂😂😂
It's September 2019 still listening 😘
Loved this song when it was new and still do all these years later. Only now I get the meaning of it.
Still a beautiful song and music up till today
Just now realized what the song was about...lol. apparently i never listened closely back in my preteen days.....he's telling his side chick he loves her but has to let her go and do right by his girl. WOW...lol
See now I had to pay attention. lol I never followed the lyrics.
Haha right!!? As I was paying close attention to the lyrics, I was thinking like, is this right?! This was wat I was jamming to back in the 90's? Lol, still love it though. Old memories.
Seriously, LOL.. somehow I overlooked the first few lyrics, & just attached the rest of the song to Dimitri's pov when leaving Anya in *Anastasia*, haha ("for her own good, cuz she'd be better off without me" which I now kno as "noble idiot syndrome", thank you Kdramas!) so it always just reminded me of ~that angst.. xD
OMG same! Been a looooooong time since i've heard this when i was in my preteens. On a whim decided to listen to this again and listened to the lyrics. Now i'm like, eh...................
I looked in the comments to see if the same happened to anyone else lmao
lmfao
oh!this song is one of the saddest i°ve ever listened...so emotional,it shows that the best era in music,was the 90s...
"The Hardest Thing"
We both know that I shouldn't be here
This is wrong
And baby it's killin' me, it's killin' you
Both of us tryin' to be strong
I've got somewhere else to be
Promises to keep
Someone else who loves me
And trusts me fast asleep
I've made up my mind
There is no turning back
She's been good to me
And she deserves better than that
It's the hardest thing
I'll ever have to do
To look you in the eye
And tell you I don't love you
It's the hardest thing
I'll ever have to lie
To show no emotion
When you start to cry
I can't let you see
What you mean to me
When my hands are tied
And my heart's not free
We're not meant to be
It's the hardest thing
I'll ever have to do
To turn around and walk away
Pretending I don't love you
I know that we'll meet again
Fate has a place and time
So you can get on with your life
I've got to be cruel to be kind
Like Dr. Zhivago
All my love I'll be sending
And you will never know
'Cause there can be no happy ending
[Chorus]
Maybe another time, another day
As much as I want to, I can't stay
I've made up my mind
There is no turning back
She's been good to me
And she deserves better than that
[Chorus]
AmazingThings hi
Walked this road recently and it is really the hardest thing ever and the most painful.
Thank you 👍🏽😇
I remember watching on TRL after school. Back before the world went insane.
I remember rushing back to turn TRL on the TV, lol! You’re right, times seems much simpler back then.
I remember when it wasn’t it on the top 5 on TRL and so we only got about a minute of the video 😂 😂
Omg yes! With Carson Daily! And does anyone remember Jessie? The guy that never took a bath? I thought he was soo hot! Lol Those were the best days!
Yes. It was one if the first things i did. Get dropped off to gpa and gmas house and go in there and watch and sing. Lol
@@kals350 I also remember watching at my grandparents house! I remember when BSB THE SHAPE OF MY HEART was number one!
90's kid here☺Those were the days .. hayysss getter older now 😕
Dixiemee Bacud what year was you born
same here that why i like you bacud from philippines
90s boy bands where so good glad I grew up in the 90s best time for music
1980s and 1990s were the best
My question is why am I still in love with this song Lee's boys and I'm 34 years old I remember the song coming out first day you made me fall in love with it the sound of the voices caressed my heart immediately
I once loved someone who wasn’t a Christian so I relate to this song on a deep level, it’s better to pretend like you don’t care for them
I love this song so much. I miss Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson together. Kids today will NEVER know how much these songs meant to us‼️ Forever love this song💙💖♥️💖💙💜💚💖♥️💖💚💖💙
I can't let you see what you mean to me when my hands are tied and my heart's not free....
We're not meant to be....
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do ----
To turn around and walk away pretending I don't love you. 😢💔
They play this where I work and it's still so my jam
Fui apaixonado na época do colégio por uma menina, sempre ouvia essa música... Nostalgia ❤
25 years ago I was married to a woman that I should not have married. I can remember being in a parking lot picking up a pizza when this song came on. I sat and listened to the entire song, and realized I needed to end the marriage. She was the wrong person at the wrong time. The song was a god shot for me.
Hope your in a better place now in 2022
genuinely curious. how did it all panned out?
2024 checking in, you find the right one?
Ahhh i was 20 at this time..im so happy i get to experience life in that generation...sometimes i wondered how i made it til today..😂😂 now im happily married with a son
I saw 98° at the 1998 "NFL experience" in San Diego, which was an event that took place next to the superbowl. There was all of maybe 10 people in the crowd. We all got signed CDs and got to meet them. I became a HUGE fan after that.
I can't believe they are still putting out music all these years later.
All these songs are still great even if they are old....
why don t they make music like this anymore ??? most of what we hear these days is nonsense ..shame
I truly believe that the 90's was the last era of good music. It's only gonna get worse. I feel so bad for this generation and the next. They won't know good quality music like we did, that's why I let my 12 yr old listen to other kinds of music than what they play today.
indeed . i believe that you are doing a great job at that because newly made music has only corrupted the minds of the youth , and music should only increase knowledge and appreciation of life .
and that's why I only listen 90😭
hi five
my thoughts exactly
I remember buying this CD playing it all the time in my car. Boy am I old now.
If that day when chronic leukemia gets the best of me even though I been fighting this deadly disease for now over 5 years I shared a post on 98 degrees music video on you tube it's all because of you about me being the only athlete in 7th grade at 14 years old knowing all the boy band songs and told not to stop singing by the other athletes. Well this is to more years until that day comes when the hardest thing is I'll ever have to do is celebrate my victory when God calls me home. But until then this fight continues forever!
I still love watching this music video in 2019. It came on mtv 20 year's ago
Jeff Timmons.... OH MY GOD. IM IN LOVE
These guys had soul.
Oh yeah
2022 these young folks will never understand these songs.. real music miss this group so much. Miss the 90s so much real music to the heart ❤ ❤
It was amazing seeing you guys perform at the Cesar's casino .. Hope you guys come back 😍😍😍😍😍
Love is the hardest thing ever in life
This song means that a person can love more than one person but time will tell whom you're probably supposed to be with. Destiny has played by its own rules
I remember when this song was all over the radio. This video was all over MTV at one time too I think.
Why is Nick smiling through out most the sad lyrics loooool. Hes so in love with himself lol
😂😂😂the lip gloss got him feeling like a bad bitch
hes got a great mouth though ;)
If I were that pretty, I’d love myself too.😆
@@Enchanted_Heart521 hahaha.. me too
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
