Unbound Edition - Reviving the Brand: NKOTB

Just because they started the boy band phenomenon doesn't mean they can revive it - or the New Kids on the Block brand. Will a new album and international tour breathe life into NKOTB, or is this one brand that should remain a memory?

Now that's just sad. There probably is a short lifespan for a reunion here, judging by the screaming fools who showed up to relive their 8th grade fantasies about Jordan. But, oh, the "singing" and "dancing." There's just no need for the rest of us to suffer.

Can thirty-year-old guys really sell these lyrics?

Listen up everybody if you wanna take a chance
Just get on the floor and do the New Kids dance
Don't worry about nothing cause it won't take long
We're gonna put you in a trance with the funky song
Cause you gotta be...
(Chorus) Hangin' tough
Singing tough
Singing tough
Are you tough enough?
Hangin' tough
Singing tough
Singing tough
We're rough
Oh Oh Oh Oh

If only they were just 30...

But I believe they are all approaching their forties. This is just one more sign that the end of the world may indeed be near...

I was dancing along!

You all look beautiful tonight. Your performance really showed us how you all can shine and make it your own. The watermelon is a squirrel hat.
