New Kids Get Back on the Block

Yeah, people keep on fronting on the Beantown posse
But it’s time to step up to the stand
‘Cause we ain’t going out like that
Back, huh, stronger than ever, did you think we’d sever?

New Kids on the Block are living up to the lyrics of their 1990 song “Games” by reuniting after nearly 14 years. The jury has yet to assemble on whether the ’80s/’90s boy band that sold more than 70 million records is “stronger than ever.” Either way, you know that NKOTB are braced for some major fronting. In fact, let’s start it off right now by observing that they look more like “Middle-Aged Men on the Block” or even “Wall Street Executives Going to Lunch on the Block” than kids making bubblegum-pop. To the band’s credit, this reunion isn’t just about nostalgia. A brand new album is in the works and NKOTB will embark on a worldwide tour this fall. Hopefully they’ll perform “You Got It (The Right Stuff)” — only this time in their business suits. That would be a hoot!

The New Kids on The Block were so ahead of their time. I know Donnie would know the right time to bring it. I am as devoted as ever.

I was a huge fan when I was 20, 21ish. I have 3 boys now: 16, 6, and 3 and my 3 year old loves Donnie. He pretends to be Donnie when he is “performing”. It’s awesome to see you guys back together again. I am so happy. Much success to you.
