Which New Kids on the Block songs do you like?

[pieceofme]

Loved Hangin Tough when I was kid. Still do really.

Step by step is definitely a guilty pleasure.

Cover Girl is best boy band video ever and song!
One of best moments of my life seeing them do this song at LA Forum soldout FUN!

[daveg]

An NKOTB greatest hits is all kinds of awesome.

Def the OG boy band (with apologies to Menudo and the Jackson 5). The stuff that came out after was way better, but they had even myself and my metal head friends bouncing around to Hanging Tough. Nothing but props to them

Step by Step
Please Don't go Girl
The Right stuff.



How can you go wrong with these.

when I was dj'ing for a local record store bitd, NK's were everywhere. Its not bad music at all.

[Wild Obsession]

"Hangin' Tuff" and "Tonight".......

"Back in the day" I used to argue with my sister that "30 years from now Guns N' Roses will be like the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, AC/DC" (long career, iconic albums, etc., etc.), while NKOTB will be done by 1992.........

......30+ years later, "GN'R" is nothing more than a soulless, corporate cash grab, while the guys in NKOTB still put on a good show and seem to get along/enjoy performing together.

Hangin' Tough is a jam, and that keyboard solo is both badass and hilarious.

Jordan Knight had potential. I'm surprised the label didn't try to make him a solo star in the early 1990s

[TravisBicklesMohawk]

Please Don't Go Girl

[roxxxtar]

Hangin Tough is cool. All the rest suck

[Rocker4Real]

Stop playin' those games!

[Fat_Elvis]

"If You Go Away"

[ParaDime77]

Step By Step is the jam!

[Nate S Axel]

For a newer song, Bring Back The Time! Look at all those 80s imitations — Journey, Twisted Sister, Billy Idol, and more.

[Hellsinkey]

Ha, I've been even in one of their gigs.

[Nate S Axel]

Gotta give them credit. They were around 15~ years before the late 90s boy band explosion, and they're still making music/touring while aside from the Backstreet Boys (coming to the SPHERE!), all of the late 90s "boy bands" are done.

New Kids have a residency at Park MGM as well. Nobody skips Vegas, even the soon-to-be-senior-citizen boy bands. When the New Kids On The Block started, the oldest member was 16. Today, the youngest member is 52.

Most of their early hits are great: "Please Don't Go Girl", "You Got It (The Right Stuff)", "Hangin' Tough". "Step By Step". I definitely enjoy those.

I love most of them.

“I Can’t Believe It’s Over” is the finest song that group ever made. Jordan Knight’s vocal is fucking bulletproof. Also has the most complex harmonies they ever put down on tape. It’s a clinic but their name was mud by then - if any other act had done this song in 1994 they’re be in the RRHOF these days, alongside Mary J. Blige.

And most of their reunion era shit has been ranging from pretty fucking good to great.

Laughing hard that of all the acts (and most of the rock bands on earth) the New Kids on fucking the Block are the ones with the most dignity and integrity.

And I’m a grown man.
Wanna fuck, girl?

I went to a Jordan Knight solo show one night at a club and saw him pull THE HOTTEST Chick in the club, She had her young daughter with her too. Took the girl up to his room and they had a huge security guard sit with the daughter by the stage area the entire time.
Changed my mind on the guy right then and there. Mad respect for JK.

[Chip Z'Hoy]

I like "I'll Be Loving You Forever." Can't think of much else.

The "80's Baby" video was fun.

They did a cover of "Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time," didn't they? Love the Delfonics version.

And I love when I see old friends from grade school going to NKTOB concerts and freaking out like it's 1989. Looks like a blast.

[CrankerBait]

I hated their songs when they first came out, and I haven't changed my mind about them since.

[uwec95]

Their song from a decade ago, "Remix." This song is fucking awesome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PN1EFs9XQoc

His brother Jonathan is the gay one.

He took Sleek up to his room after the same show, Rob Halforded him, and then never called him again.

Very nice. Such a jam.

The New Kids on the Block got a bad rap. This is the hill I choose to die on.

Super embarrassing thread is super embarrassing.
