Step By Step!

Filed under: Music Minute

Click 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!

    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!

    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."

    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

    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.

    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 ….

    44

    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!

  45. Kate says – reply to this
    45

    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 – 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!

    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!!!!

  58. Ashley says – reply to this
    58

    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!!!!

    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!!

    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!

    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.

    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!

  80. Stacey says – reply to this

    You are crazy! I LOVED it! Plus it was raining! They are BACK and Better then ever! NKOTB Forever!
