If you've seen High School Musical 3, you know that the song "The Boys Are Back" is a badass song about male friendship and a total disregard of junkyard safety.
The song is catchy as hell, and it's definitely helped by Zac Efron and Corbin Bleu clearly having a blast the whole time.
But, as comedian Andrew Ivimey recently noticed on Twitter, perhaps the reason "The Boys Are Back" is so catchy is that it sounds very similar to another song: NSYNC's 2001 banger "Pop."
Friend: The Boys Are Back from High School Musical 3 is a really good song. Me: Umm... It's good. But it's Nsync's… https://t.co/6tq4pvC8Y5
In a 45-second video, Ivimey edited together parts of "The Boys Are Back" and "Pop" to highlight the familiar beats and melodies in both songs.
Even the dance moves are similar! Both of the breakdowns feature some elaborate synchronized choreography.
Ivimey's video is short, so if you need to hear more, here's the full version of "The Boys Are Back," which came out in 2008:

And here's the video for "Pop," which was released in 2001:

Well, even if they ARE the same, both songs are still 🔥.
