(God Must Have Spent) A Little More Time on You


" A Little More Time on You" is a song by American boy band NSYNC. It was released as the third single from their self-titled debut album in the U.S. While some of the previous singles were released in Europe, this one was not, and subsequently only charted in Australia and the US, reaching number 46 and number eight respectively. The single included a live version of Christopher Cross song "Sailing", as well as a limited edition postcard. Some versions of the single included the track's video. The radio version of this song was featured on both their first and third compilation albums: Greatest Hits and The Essential *NSYNC.

Music video

The video was directed by Lionel C. Martin. The video shows the band performing around one single microphone, while showing footage of the mother and son, from birth to old age, including childhood memories, going to serve in World War II, and coming home. All the footage of the mother and son was in black and white, whereas most of the footage of *NSYNC is in full color.

Alabama version

In 1999, country music band Alabama recorded the song with a backing vocal from NSYNC, and released it as a single from their eighteenth studio album, Twentieth Century. This version peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and at number 29 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song is the only Hot Country Songs chart entry for NSYNC. This was also Alabama's final top 10 hit on the Billboard country charts until 2011, when they topped the chart as featured on Brad Paisley's "Old Alabama". The song was later included as the B-side to Alabama's next single, "Small Stuff".
