I Want It That Way - Steel Panther - MP3 instrumental karaoke

In June 2010, glam metal parody band Steel Panther released a bold and humorous cover of the Backstreet Boys' 1999 pop anthem “I Want It That Way.” This rendition transformed the original's polished boy-band balladry into a tongue-in-cheek, hair-metal spectacle, complete with soaring guitar solos and exaggerated vocals. “I Want It That Way” was released digitally in June 2010 to coincide with Steel Panther's performance at the Download Festival that year. Known for their satirical take on 1980s glam metal, the band infused the track with their signature blend of over-the-top musicianship and comedic flair, reimagining pop hit “I Want It That Way” through a heavy metal lens. While the cover maintained the original lyrics, Steel Panther's rendition was characterized by its deliberate parody of glam metal tropes, highlighting the band's commitment to both musical prowess and comedic performance.
