At the beginning of the "boy band" era was the pop singing group New Kids on the Block. The group currently stands as the third best all-time selling boy band behind Backstreet Boys and The Jackson Five. The five singing/dancing band members are Danny Wood, Joey McIntyre, Jonathan Knight, Jordan Knight and Donnie Wahlberg. The band was formed in 1984 in Boston, Massachusetts. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the band would sing and dance its way into the record books. In 1986, the band's self-titled debut album hit the record stores. It was not the hit they were looking for but was a solid start nonetheless. The band took everything in stride and headed back to the studio to cut the followup album. The new title, Hangin' Tough, had its own initial struggles however, a few public performances and a big boost by MTV turned the band's fortunes around. The group's new-found popularity pushed the single "You Got It (The Right Stuff)" into the top five on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Charts. The band caught fire and its second single "I'll Be Loving You (Forever)" would hit #1 and catapult the band into headliner status. The next album Step by Step and the title track both claimed the #1 spots solidifying The New Kids on the Block's place in music history. In 2008, the band reunited after 14 years and released the commercially successful album The Block. They followed that with 10 (2013) and began touring the world to the delight of fans.
