Step By Step!
Filed under: Music MinuteClick here to watch the New Kids on the Block comeback performance!
The men performed a lame medley of their biggest hits, Step by Step and The Right Stuff, on the Today show. Dance moves and all!
The ladies "loved" it!
P.S. They've grown tone deaf over the years.
They sounded horrible!

Loved it.
The greatest ever!
Ehhh not the best sounding performance,,
But decent for the first one back and in the rain!
PEREZ…U R BUGGIN! It started off a lil weird…BUT THEY ROCKED IT! Come on..it's been 15 yrs, and they were LIVE…OUTSIDE…ITH A THOUSAND WOMEN SCREAMING!!! I recorded it…They WERE GREAT! I am SO HAVING AN NKOTB moment…I love them!!! Be NICE TO THEM PEREZ!
LOVE EM!!!!!!!!!!!
Can not wait for concert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love NKOTB! They rock!
Joey sounded good!
Ah-mazingg!!
:)
I kinda liked it. Not bad!
loveit to
What are you talking about? They don't sound horrible. They probably can't even hear with all the screaming. I think Jordan sounds really good, actually
They rocked!! They did a great job and weren't synthesized or drowned out by background vocals. They sang unlike most groups nowadays. Keep rocking NKOTB. I'll always be a fan!
i saw them standing there!
NKOTB ROCK!

AT LEAST THEY HAVE TALENT AND DOTING FANS. WHAT'S YOUR TALENT, PEREZ? DEEP-THROATING? I DON'T SEE YOU SELLING MILLIONS OF ALBUMS DOING THAT.

You're right Perez, I guess we should leave the live performances to talented vocalists like Madonna…oh wait…no…she totally can't sing either, yet you act like she's this amazing Whitney/Mariah/Celine hybrid with all your fawning.
Take NKOTB for what they are…just guilty fun, kind of like "The Hills."
I freaking LOVED the performance!
HA!
Us girls don't take too kindly to New Kid bashing, I can't wait for the tour! They can do no wrong in my eyes
Lets see what happens on their tour
haha
Seriously, though, did they ever sound "great??" I thought they did a good job all things considered. At least they sang live.
please keep in mind that they performed in the pouring rain with some real technical difficulties. their new song is awesome and i can't wait to see them in September!!
Loves it so much more!!!
There are over a 1000 people there screaming their heads off for them…it is pouring hardcore rain…I think they were great considering they most likely can't hear anything with all the craziness that is there…STEP off PEREZ…You will NEVER expericnce this kind of love…you're DEF not worth it
I loved it as well, made my panties wet all over again! lol
shut up perez! you know that you know all of the words to their songs. Why can't you back them up, you backed up the spice girls?
more like NEW KIDS ON THE FLOP!
they sucked!
PEREZ! You have to know that it was the sound guy and the mic's that sounded liek crap….. the next 2 songs were INCREDIBLE… you used to be my fave site, but if you keep bashin' the new kids I won't visit at all. I think you should update your comment.
You are an asshole. They sounded FAR from horrible. They were REALLY good! Lookin HOT too
They didn't sound that bad. Considering that they actually sang the songs. I was fairly impressed.
Perez why do you have to be such an ass. Will you have that kind of dedicated fans in 15 years. I highly doubt it.. so don't be jealous. They sound good after 15 years and look so damn cute dancing ….
They looked hot!!! Perez you are jealous
Hey, atleast they sing live! u cant hate on them for that!
i'm laughin my ass off right now as i type…they fuckin suck they were soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bad my dog is howling haha…why would you ever do a live performance LIKE THAT?
I fucking love the new kids!!! woohooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!
Roberta Chubbs, Good one!! NKOTB ROCKED it!! They were LIVE and NOT LIPSYNCHING like some other so-called "performers". New Kids Rock!!
Re: ROBERTA CHUBBS –
whatz the matter ../? can't do it right…?
you want perez/z throat so bad…go eff y'rzelf..azzdickholebrainbitch.
Sounded more like "old farts from the rest home"
I think they sounded Uh-maziiingg!! Jordan sounded grreat!!! NKOTB is back!!!!!!
OCT 3 CLEVELAND!! WOOT!
NKOTB rocked it today i wanna go see them in concert!!!
They were SOOO HOT! They're actually coming to my town and this time I'm LEGAL! GUYS, you did GREAT! Perez loves to hate on people. We're all PUMPED!
Love them. I remember when I was 7 and had clip outs, a sleeping bag, dolls, and god only knows what of theirs.. I'm 24 now and I can't wait to see these guys in concert once again. I met Jordan and Joey a couple years back when they came to Houston to perform, and they are truly the sweetest guys ever!
Yeah, it wasn't too pretty, but it was still worth the wait. I'll blame it on the yucky weather conditions. I am still like a giddy school girl seeing them on TV.
Re: hannah – And why would your mother ever give birth to a rotten hoodlum like you?
I am sooooooooo happy!!!!!!! Can't wait for the concert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: hannah – you sound dirty, maybe dirtier than amy winehouses's crotch. you are probably some pre-pubescent 12 year old with a pizza face who wishes she could be having jamie lynn spears' baby. take a bath you filthy skank!
I just don't think their choreographer from 1991 is gonna cut it anymore.
It's been 14 years wat 2 do you expect their voice have changed but they were so good I love them so much. Awesome I can't wait 2 see them this sunday
I think I just came… fucking hell LOL
OMG tallk about bringing back some memories. they didnt sound that bad….a little off but at least they were singing, something most of the new "artists" DO NOT DO!
Re: nkfaninhouston – Re: nkfaninhouston – Where in Houston? I live in Sugar Land!
you are trippin i love you and all but hey it's nkotb!!!!!!!!!!! gosh danny wasn't hot back then but daaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn he's a man now!!!!!!!!!!yum yum
Oh, Donnie. What would Sgt. Lipton say?
Don't be a hater Perez, get on the NKOTB train. That was fantastic!
Dude, who EVER sounds great on the Today show? It's outdoors at 9:00 in the morning. They sounded GOOD given the circumstances (rain and a record breaking group of screaming girls (and boys). I think they were fantastic and they are looking better than ever!!!!
They rocked it! They didn't sound great great but did they ever? Hearing them do those songs again, I'm grinning from ear to ear!!!!
i just got back from rock center. they were actually great live. tv did them no justice.
I can't believe they are back!!! I'm 31 now and still love them. They all look great!!
It's aout nastalgia, Perez.
They sound horrible? Are you freakin crazy?
They sounded pretty good! There were only a couple parts where they were trying to stylize too much and it was a bit ehh. And listen to them sing their new song Summertime, they sounded great! I'm going to see them in September!!
They were awesome!! So glad to see them back!
you shut—Up!! i love them sooo much. yaaaaaaayy! my 40 year old head is spinning!!
I agree in the beginning they didn't sound to hot but they got better…Jonathan so looks like he doesn't want to be doing this. I felt bad for him. I can't wait for Atlantic City!
Michelle
They sound Great!!I LOVE THEM I soo want to see them in concert!!! PEREZ leave them alone! you suck!
O hells yeah!!!
Usually I agree with most of the things you say. But come on they Rocked! Its been 15 years. They are a little rusty with some things. I t was a great performance.
I was never a NKOTB fan when i was a kid, but I loved this. They did a great job. Fuck, they sang it LIVE instead of relying on a backing track. BRAVE!
Kudos to NKOTB. Way to get that nostalgia $$$.
I thought their performance was pretty good. You were totally wrong on this one Perez.
started out weird- might have something to do with the crap stage and sound that today show provided, but got better, it was fun to relive grade school days- they got better as the show progressed. I think they will be much better in a larger setting!
Re: hannah – Eat a dildo, bee-atch!
ummm…so sucky…did anyone else catch the laughing some of the guys were doing during the medley…
By the reaction of the fans at the Today show AND here on this board, it is AMAZING how people really want them to come back and love them. They are getting a MINIMUM of $6 million EACH for thier tour…..so I have to say great for them. Lets be honest. Who's better? Duffy. NO. Wannabe Amy Whinehouse. Madonna. NO. Ashlee "My father is a creep" Simpson. NO. Go ahead New Kids, Men, Whatever. Rock it out.
BAD BAD BAD PEREZ! THEY SOUNDED AWESOME! HOW COULD YOU SAY THEY SOUNDED BAD!?!? THEY ARE AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST BAND EVER!
Loved it! I didn't think they sounded bad at all - I think they sounded REAL! (I know … we're not used to that in this day and age of lipsynching … )
Yummy
Re: NKOTB Girl – I don't think Jonathan wants to do the reunion at all. He's the sole reason as to why it took so long for NKOTB to even reunite. I remember years ago, each NK wanted to do a reunion and he was the only one opposed to it.. I'm sure they offered him quite alot of money to do this one!
You are crazy! I LOVED it! Plus it was raining! They are BACK and Better then ever! NKOTB Forever!
***PEREZ HOW DARE YOU!!****

You don't learn, do you?
BE NICE TO THEM!!!
I'm SOOOO tired of reading about Kilye Minogue!!!! Nobody likes her, except you, and your peers. Then you start talking about something we (YOUR MAIN PUBLIC -women) really, really like, and start saying this BS?

Your are SOOO wrong!
I totally agree with Mandiva (Comment No. 17)
Perez! Porque te gusta hablar tanta mierda chico?? For their first performance in over 15 yrs. it was great… They started off a bit out of tune and the mics seemed to be having some issues (not to mention the rain, I'm amazed no one slipped and ate it) but, overall it was great… I personally thought that Jordan's vocals were the best of the bunch and Donnie has so much personality… It looks like they're having a lot of fun together and I think that the fans couldn't be happier to see them reunited again… YAY!!!
Don't hate, Perez! They sound amazing…
P.S. It's raining and freezing in NY… give them credit where it's due.
I love the old man-slow dance moves. Can't wait for 35 year old women to relive their side pony tail days and colored tights. Nostalgia can only take you so far, but talent has to be there. I don't think that being rusty is an excuse for losing your boyish charm 15 years later.
It was ok…
it was histarical to watch!
to me it was more like the donny,jordan and joey show!
the other 2 were just kind of left in the background. what was up with the hooker dancing in the back?
What are you talking about?!?!!? They sounded AWESOME!!!! They're not teens anymore, so of course they're going to sound different. They have deeper voices now…duh! I can't wait to see them in concert!!!!
I can honestly say that I felt like I was younger all over again! It wasn't great but live shows are much different than the album. I think it's great that they are back.
O0o0o0o0o0oh Fuck you perez they kicked assss! Jordan is still oh so sexy too!
I loved it! they were awesome! cant wait to see them in concert!!!!!!!!!!
Its been over a decade! Give em a break Perez! And the LADIES LOVE - YUP YUP! You know you did too!
come on PEREZ!! they did not sound HORRIBLE!! they were freakin awesomely wickedly hot, and you are just fucking fat and jealous!! i want donnie so bad, he makes me so horny!!! love you donnie!!!! fuck you perez!!!
P.S. They've grown tone deaf over the years. They sounded horrible!
Um, They ALWAYS sounded horrible. This is nothing new.
BAD BAD BAD!!!!!!!!!!! So sad They sucked. Can't sing anymore. You are no longer kids. Grow up. BOY BANDS SUCK
PEREZ..THEY SOUNDED FINE..IT WAS RAINING AND SERIOUSLY..IT WAS SO LOUD NO ONE COULD HEAR ANYTHING. THEY LOOK AMAZING AND OF YOU CHOOSE TO SHOW THAT PERFORMANCE….THE ONE OF THEM SINGING THEIR NEW SONG "SUMMERTIME" ROCKED!!
They were awesome!
shit, effin die hards.
It was awesome! I think you are blind Perez! Us girls never did like to listen to guys bashing them.
I can't believe I am going to say this to you Perez,,,,But FUCK OFF..
They were AWESOME….
LOVING MY DONNIE
I know that you're interested in it, otherwise you wouldn't keep writing about them. I guess you have to give all of the hateful people who comment here something to talk about. Don't go to a show, it'll leave (far) more room for real fans. Oh, and thanks for more promotion of the reunion. Have a nice day
