They might be older but they're just as nifty on the dance floor and as Billboard points out, they can still "turn the camera into mush".
Don't Go Breaking My Heart was released in the early hours of May 17 and was directed by Backstreet's longtime collaborators Rich & Tone.
It's been described as a "slice of chilled electro-pop and bears no similarity to Elton John and Kiki Dee's hit of the same name."
Bandmate Kevin Richardson said: “The minute we heard this song we knew it was special.

"I geeked out over the piano and synths.
"When that groove drops on the second verse, COME ON. Great verse, hook and melodies.
"Just makes you wanna listen over and over again.”
To support the single Backstreet Boys will hit the road for a number of summer dates in the US.
