“Fake Love” Korean pop superstars BTS and The Backstreet Boys teamed up together backstage at the Westwood One Backstage event over the weekend ahead of the 2018 Billboard Music Awards at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on Sunday night (May 20).
The 21-year-old singer revealed the song isn’t just necessarily about a significant other, and that it’s a progression from their first album.
“Certain days, it feels like it’s more about a friend, or it’s more about my boyfriend, or it’s about one of my brothers,” she told Billboard. “But it’s just about miscommunication and misunderstandings, which happens in every type of relationship, no matter how hard you try.”
“It’s a progression,” Sydney added. “It’s still Echosmith at the core — there are still real drums, real bass, the same girl singing — but I do feel like it sounds older. We are five or six years older than we were when we recorded our first album, so naturally, there are a lot of changes that happen.”

The sibling band – Sydney, Noah and Graham Sierota – stopped by the radio show to perform a couple songs and chat about their new song “Over My Head”.
While on the show, host Elvis Duran asked about new music and when we could expect their sophomore album.
“Basically all the music is done. We may change teeny tiny things, but we’re now at the point where we are choosing which songs are going on the album which is hard because we spent the past two years writing and recording so many songs, it’s ridiculous,” Sydney said. “But now we need to narrow it down to whatever that magic number is and choose a title, feel good about it and then just continue touring. Right now we’re on tour and deciding, once we finish tour, we need to have an album title set.”
