"I'll Be Loving You Forever" hit #1 in America in June 1989 & hit #12 on the Hot R&B/Hip Hop Singles Chart as well. Still my favorite pop group of all time
The guy that managed new edition put together and managed this group. Check out step by step, hangin tough, baby I believe in you, and please don't go girl
The Batman t-shirt Jordan is wearing reminded me that when this came out in 1989, EVERYBODY had a Batman t-shirt or some swag with the Batman logo because of the Michael Keaton movie.
@@JamesSmith-qy3eu Mark most certainly was an original member of NKOTB, when they were still called NYNUK. He didn't like that Maurice Starr wanted them to do more Pop than R&B/HipHop so he quit and was replaced with Joey McIntyre.
Male Blockhead since 1988!! And proud of it!! My favorite group ever & my first concert ever!! Donnie & Joey are my favorites but all 5 are my boys!! I owned everything..bought every magazine they were on the cover of..my whole room covered in posters..They saved this shy depressed kid..NKOTB forever!!
OMG BEEN WAITING FOR THIS. I grew up listening to them because they're my sister's favorite group. Had the posters and VHS tape to their music videos. Pleaseeeee react to their 1st hit "Please don't go girl" and their newest hit "80's baby" perfect way to see how much they've changed but remained humbled
Man I was a poor kid growing up, but somehow my sister and I got NKOTB tickets, my mom sold them so we could get groceries. I was 38 when I finally got to see them live. I was like a teenager screaming down the auditorium 😂
Lmao I didn't get to see them til I was 38 as well! I won tickets off the radio and told everybody it was a 30 year old dream that finally came true 😂 can't believe May will be 2 years since I saw them!
watching all these reactions to these guys today on here is bringing back so many fun memories today on my birthday. I grew up in Boston in the 80's and early 90's and got to spend time with them a few times thanks to my sister during the time she was dating Danny. Going to 7 of their concerts back in the day for free was so much fun
I remember my sister had shirts and a framed poster on her wall. I think she had a bath towel too. She had their cassette tapes. We are four years apart and I'm the younger one. She recorded music videos on CMC hosted by Chewy I think his last name was Gomez and she would record them on a VCR. New Kids On The Block was always on there.
I was around 12 or 13. I loved Joey (young curly hair) I had New Edition and NKOTB all over my walls. And roller skated to it at the roller skating rink ❤
I was 17 years old (nearly 18 when it hit #1 (Billboard Hot 100 Chart ending June 17th, 1989 - 9 days before my 18th birthday) and just graduated from high school. Maurice Starr, who created NKOTB, is the same guy who created New Edition and he said he wanted a totally white version of New Edition and so came NKOTB.
I was 13 and in love with Jonathon 😍 never saw them live 😭 in 2008 when they made a come back I did get to see them live and took my 14 year Old Daughter with me 😁 we loved it 😍🥰
Sooo Happyyyy! #millenialhour gives me LIFE! please keep reacting to NKOTB. You've got to watch when Joey (youngest) sings lead on Please Don't Go Girl.
NKOTB was my first concert back in 1989. You should react to House Party. They did it last year after the pandemic started. There are a lot of special guests in the video.
I was like six when this came out. My older step sisters were OBSESSED with NKOTB. LOL I think they made me watch their live concert VHS tapes a gazillion times 🤣😂 I must say though.. the NKOTBSB concert was AMAZING!!!
I was 6 and I remember stealing my older sisters tapes and walkman to listen to them. Jordan Knight was and is still my favorite. Btw, Jordan is the main one singing with the high voice.
@ #socrazyfam, the jacket that the girl at the end of the video on the far left was was given to me by my mom cause she knew how much I loved NKOTB! I actually got to go to the "HANGING TOUGH TOUR at the universal amphitheater. So cool. Fun fact, the guy with the longish blonde hair is Donnie Wahlberg,(older brother to Mark Wahlberg)star of the hit cop drama BLUE BLOODS.
I am a proud blockhead. I loved them since 1988 when I was 12 and I am now about to turn 48 in a few months so that should tell you something. This song has always one of my favorites. But then again, I say that about all of their songs lol. But there’s nothing like seeing this performed front row. Amazing !
Me too.The wall near my bed had nothing but him. I wanted him to be the first thing I seen before I went to bed and the first thing I seen when I woke up
Me too. Had New Kids posters all over my room, and a Jordan poster on my ceiling over my bed. Had posters covering my entire ceiling at one point and mirrored closet doors. It was ridiculous. I still saved all my new kids on the block stuff though. It’s fun to go through every now and then. I just saw them for the ninth or 10th time last time they were in town
Ahh, seventh grade. Good times! Thanks for the memories! Can you check out, if you never have before anyway, Have You Seen Her by MC Hammer....yes, I'm going there! lol 🤘😆 Thanks again and much love!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ty Billy for reacting to one of the OG boy bands!!!!!!!! I was CRAZY in love with them....i think this song came out right before i graduated high school in 1992 if i am not mistaken....correct me if i am wrong i can take it xD! You should give a listen to one of the members Joey McIntyre...all grown up..singing "Stay the Same" beautiful song and message in that one!! Keep being amazing and stay safe and healthy
Probably havent heard this song for 30yrs but still know every single word lol I had NKOTB posters all over ther walls back in the days lol The next best thing was my teen years with NSync
I was 10 when this came out. They were also my first concert ever, August 8 1991 at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta....Magic Summer Tour. I screamed so loud in my mom's ears she couldn't hear at work the next day. ❤️
I'm basically the same age as these guys. I liked the songs but somehow because of that I didn't have a crush on any of them. I had had crushes previously on the guys who were older like Duran Duran and Wham! So by this time, I felt like I was beyond the teenybopper stage. lol I was a sophomore in high school when this came out. Still remember every word.
I was a freshman in high school when this came out it feels like a million years ago. I was never a big new kids fan I like you thought they were corny personally I loved boys to Men
I was 5 or 6 when this came out and my older cousin was in 5th grade gave me a copy of their album she recorded onto a blank cassette...I fell in love with Joey instantly, lol....who remembers recording on blank cassettes????😁
You should find a live version of them doing Hangin' Tough! So worth every second. It's mindblowing. I was only 12 when this came out, and trust me, they sang it to me, personally, and I sang it to them.
I actually wasn't a NKOTB fan when I was a teenage girl, back then I LOVED Duran Duran. Duran Duran were my "boy band." LOL. I remember NKOTB though. Right Stuff and Step By Step were HUGE on MTV.
These are my boys! I was ride or die them. I’ve seen them in concert 10 times. Last concert I saw them had salt & peppa, Naughty By Nature,Tiffany, and Debbie Gibson. I’ve also seen them with TLC, Nelly, Boyz II Men twice, The Backstreet Boys, 98 Degrees, & Marky Mark and the funky Bunch way back in the day,
The ones of us that were in love with them as kids, are still in love with them now 😂
Yes still in love with them and always will be
Exactly
Exactly i dont care how old i am
You know that’s right!! Joey’s my guy 😂
Those are straight up facts.
This song had every generation x girl loving them forever.
NKOTB was my everything as a pre-teen girl!
"I'll Be Loving You Forever" hit #1 in America in June 1989 & hit #12 on the Hot R&B/Hip Hop Singles Chart as well.
Still my favorite pop group of all time
Stills mine haha my son makes fun of me for having posters still on my wall
Yep me too 😊
This was my sister's favorite NKOTB song. She loved Jordan. So anytime I hear this song it reminds me of her and makes me miss her even more.
The guy that managed new edition put together and managed this group. Check out step by step, hangin tough, baby I believe in you, and please don't go girl
Me & my friend went to see them in concert when we 30. The whole stadium was like a bunch of 30 somethings reverted back to being 12, 13, 14 lol.
Please do their songs "Please Don't Go Girl" and "Cover Girl"
And step by step too
The Batman t-shirt Jordan is wearing reminded me that when this came out in 1989, EVERYBODY had a Batman t-shirt or some swag with the Batman logo because of the Michael Keaton movie.
Nkotb bh since 1986! My all time favorite nkotb song. Jordan girl ever since. 😍😍😍😍😍
Donnie Wahlberg before he became an Actor .... his brother Mark Wahlberg was a member... went solo Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch
Marky Mark! 😍
🎶Good Vibrations... 💃
I don't think Mark was a member of NKOTB
Mark is also an actor. He wasn't in NKOTB.

Big shout to New Edition founder and producer, he discovered and w&p their albums as well.
YESS! PLEASE DO "STEP BY STEP". THAT'S ONE OF MY FAVORITES!!!
My love for New Kids on the Block is not past tense. It is current. Jordan Knight is still my favorite. Proud Blockhead since 1989. 💙🤖💙
I was a teenager....i seriously miss those days!!!! New kids was and still is my favorite ❤takes me back.
I saw them a couple of years ago. Still kill it all these years later.
Jordan can still sing that High Note!! I was 12 when this came out. #BHLove

I wore out the concert visor the concert footage they used for Hangin Tough! I got it for Christmas and by my birthday in May I got another one!
Hahah my sisters made me watch the VHS tapes too 😂
@@cindyw262 thank you. At least I'm not the only one 😆
I just saw them for the fourth time about 3 weeks ago. It brought back so many memories. They are still amazing.

I was 16 when this came out. I’ve been to 8 NKOTB concerts and met them in Orlando.
I remember being 13 or 14 yrs old listening to this pretending in my head Jordan Knight was singing this to me.
I was late to the party. I was born six months after their third albums release but they are one of my favorite boy bands period.

I love this song. I have it set as my ringtone when my husband calls me. :-) I will forever be a NKOTB fan.
It actually seems like you like the kids.... That is just awesome. Makes me love you. ❤️
I was 11 when I first heard them!! Was obsessed and I was from Boston which was where they from!! So good!!
I love the new kids on the block since 1989 i was 11 years i still love them they are the best. I was 11 years old
I am and Always be a fan! I am also proud to be a fellow Bostonian like them
They've got some new bops too! They're still rocking after 30 years!! Boys in the Band is a good example.
I was around 12 or 13. I loved Joey (young curly hair) I had New Edition and NKOTB all over my walls. And roller skated to it at the roller skating rink ❤
They were big enough to get a spot on Saturday morning cartoons!! For us Gen x'ers!! It was a dream come true!!!
The feels....even after all these years....still come back as strong lol! Love NKOTB.
I was 11 years old when this song I'll be loving you forever came out
I was 17 years old (nearly 18 when it hit #1 (Billboard Hot 100 Chart ending June 17th, 1989 - 9 days before my 18th birthday) and just graduated from high school.

My favorite New kids on the block songs are step by step or hang in tough. You'll love the dance moves in those videos as well
Sooo Happyyyy! #millenialhour gives me LIFE! please keep reacting to NKOTB. You've got to watch when Joey (youngest) sings lead on Please Don't Go Girl.
My husband and I danced to this at our wedding. And I saw them in concert in 2013 it was awesome

1980something I was 13-14 yrs old and this was our song!
I was 6 and I remember stealing my older sisters tapes and walkman to listen to them. Jordan Knight was and is still my favorite. Btw, Jordan is the main one singing with the high voice.

I’m 38 now. Still lovin NKOTB!!!
Lol well from about the age of 6 to 11...oh hell yes! They were and are my childhood.
I went to Germany to visit family and arrived on my 10th birthday... this was one of TWO cassette tapes I took with me...Obviously Joey was my bias!

Girl, Me too.
Me too.The wall near my bed had nothing but him. I wanted him to be the first thing I seen before I went to bed and the first thing I seen when I woke up
@@andreamartinez6929 SAME!! I had this huge poster of him with his shirt half off and I put it on the ceiling over my bed, lol. So cringe now
Me too. Had New Kids posters all over my room, and a Jordan poster on my ceiling over my bed. Had posters covering my entire ceiling at one point and mirrored closet doors. It was ridiculous. I still saved all my new kids on the block stuff though. It’s fun to go through every now and then. I just saw them for the ninth or 10th time last time they were in town
Loved Jordan and Joey, I really like Donnie now not so much then, love Blue Bloods
I was like 18 or 19 when this came out. I remember my youngest sister listening to them.

Ahh, seventh grade. Good times! Thanks for the memories! Can you check out, if you never have before anyway, Have You Seen Her by MC Hammer....yes, I'm going there! lol 🤘😆 Thanks again and much love!

I just went back to 13 years old when this song came out! I was so in love with Jordan Knight! 😍😍😍
I was 14 when these songs came out I have loved them from the start and still love them
Probably havent heard this song for 30yrs but still know every single word lol I had NKOTB posters all over ther walls back in the days lol The next best thing was my teen years with NSync
As a kid I had everything New Kids on the Block. Sheets, curtains, blanket, comforter, dolls everything.

I was 10 when this came out and they were my first crushes!
I was a teenager when they came out. They are my ultimate favorite group. Thank you Billy for reacting their music. I enjoy watching your videos.
This song was played at my uncle's wedding in '89
I'm basically the same age as these guys. I liked the songs but somehow because of that I didn't have a crush on any of them.

So by this time, I felt like I was beyond the teenybopper stage. lol I was a sophomore in high school when this came out. Still remember every word.
NKOTB was my first concert when I was 5. I still love their music. Please react to more of their songs. They have so many to choose from!!
I was a freshman in high school when this came out it feels like a million years ago. I was never a big new kids fan I like you thought they were corny personally I loved boys to Men
Love this so much!
I was 16 but a heavy metal chick. But I had my moments going back to pop also. Now I listen to everything.
Loved your reaction!!!
This proves the 80's are the best in music Jonathan falsetto is classic
My fave If New Kids' Songs ( They around was 12 or so!)
I was in the 8th grade. Love Love NKOTB room was full of posters.
I have been a Jordan (the lead on this song) Girl since the Summer of 89

I was 5 or 6 when this came out and my older cousin was in 5th grade gave me a copy of their album she recorded onto a blank cassette...I fell in love with Joey instantly, lol....who remembers recording on blank cassettes????😁
NKOTB came out in 85 I was born in 85 and been listenig to them all my life literally, my mom use to play them when I was in her belly.
I was in 5th grade, so I think I was probably just in love with the youngest singer, Joey McIntyre. Lol
You should find a live version of them doing Hangin' Tough! So worth every second. It's mindblowing. I was only 12 when this came out, and trust me, they sang it to me, personally, and I sang it to them.
How old I was when the first hearing this? 6 yeets old, man 🤣🤣 my sister was and I think still their fan 😂 wait2 so 6...wow, that was 30 years ago 😭
Song came out in 1989 I was 18 years old!
I was 14 when this came out. All us guys pretended we hated it but we liked it and i had a girl in mind at the time.
I was only like 12/13 when this song came out but I was listening to NKOTB when I was a bit older, about 16-17 and crushing on Joe McIntyre 😅
12 year old me was so in love with this group. Still makes me smile *mumble* years later.
All of us OGs are 30 somethings now. Love NKOTB!

Jordan’s falsetto is the best!
I was in grade school when this came out!
ATTN Billy after this reaction you are officially my very favorite TH-cam reactor.
This blockhead still loves them! I watch Donnie every Friday night on Blue Bloods! You want to lose your appetite open a bunch of bills due!
I was a teenager when this came out. I love this song and so many of their others. I will always be a Blockhead for life.
Yes!!!! Blockhead for life
I was about 9 when this album came out and absolutely loved them.
