can't u use your sense from boy band like 'boyzone' where the **** is it...they were best irsh band before westlife...try to make list again...and they should be in top 10 :P
Aaand, for which time, are you thinking of? There's PLENTY of boybands, better than all these. The only one i liked was Jonas Brothers, and i will take a look at N'Sync, but thats all. Not top 20 at all.
The top 5 is correct, The Jackson 5, The Beatles and The Monkees are the pioneers but Nkotb pretty much started all the later boy bands. It was because of them they were formed, they do deserve credit for that. I mean the inspiration for all the later groups were inspired by The New Kids, just sayin' give credit where it's do
The Beatles and Jackson 5 are pioneers of the boybands, but they were not really termed as such. New Kids, Take That and their successors were the ones called boybands. 'boyband' is a 1990s term.
@thornINyourSIDE79 just come outside america once and see the same take that,westlife and blue r more famous than the american shits!!(no offence.....i know these guys sing in american accent)
old best boy bands is Take That Westlife N'Sync and BSB new boybands would be Jonas brothers and more BTW if u still like boybands u should hear the new Varsity Fanclub with the song Future Love or Babysteps :D
Respond to this video... cont. At the height of both BSB and N'sync' s fame they were continually at odds with each other causing epic fan wars, battleing on TRL, and of course Record sales. In terms of album sales and world wide popularity BSB clearly come out the winners but it was a bloody battle here in the states for a while. Anyway, these are some of the factors I considered when making this list from "An American" standpoint but like you said. feel free to disagree. ;]
Respond to this video... Cont. The influence of NKOTB was staggering. A slew of European groups would follow after their success, the most notable being Take That. TT started an entire Phenomenon, mostly in U.K....BSB took it to a new level in the 90's causing the reinsurgence of Boy Bands in the U.S. Westlife are a worthy group but are mostly unknown( commercially) here in the states. N'Sync were always the thorn in BSB's side,the only other bb to give the boys some real competition.
@pandaplutten The Beatles were the template for Boy Bands to come but evolved to be so much more so I didn't included them. The Beatles were pretty much the most influential band in the history of popular music, the J5 being an R&B cross over act had their share of influence aswell but mostly stayed in the realm of bubblegum pop. The success of the J5 then lead to the formation of New Edition, that lead to the creation of NKOTB which were arguably the 1st successful modern "pop" boy band".
how the hell can you put the backstreet boys in front of nysnc and not to meantion you put boyz2men behind the new kids and not to meantion in front of them your way of thinking is crazy but thats whatyou think lol
@TheMcDelicate let me set you straight, just because YOU listen to these bands still does not make them relevant. Sense you know so much and i dont know anything about music, please besides the obvious groups give me only two top ten singles of the other groups (take 5,blue,us5 ect) till you do that, dont respond to what i say.
@JBloverx0x that coming from a JB lover sure u would choose Bsb cause Bsb are just as talentless as JB.....ONly Brian can actually sing in Bsb just 1?and u say Bsb are better?what a joke....NSYNC ARE THE BEST BOYBAND EVER CREATED ON THIS PLANET FACT...BOOM TEAM NSYNC
I don't get this. How is Jackson 5 considered a boy band? In my opinion boy bands are Backstreet boys, west life etc… anyways my top 5 list goes 5.Take That, 4.Nsync, 3.New Kids On The Block, 2.West Life, 1. Backstreet Boys. Them plus Boyzone are what I considered real boy bands.
9.New Edition,8.Hanson,7.Westlife,6.Blue,5.Five,4.New Kids On The Block,3.Nsync,2.Backstreet Boys,1.Menudo
I sort my (my ok) boy band so if you guys think its bad the problem is, with no accounting for taste I may be really wrong in my rating but it is the taste! Kisses
I'm sorry I just put in the first place because Menudo was the first Boy Band will invent perhaps not the best but this title deserves to be the first
@kritiX99 ill give you that, they were popular with the ladies i guess, but were do you think pop music comes from. Not being racist but "pop" music is just white r&b. it all love songs. n'sync sang r&b there song were no different from 112 or any other black group.
@kritiX99 only about 5 of these bands are influential, i promise you one thing, 98% of these band2 you put up here nobody remembered untill they saw your post. Weres Troop, High Five, soul 4 real and 112? Like i said, you know nothing about music these are YOUR favorite Boy bands.
@tonyjacob79 Those bands you named were never influential in the realm of pop music, only R&B...don't get it twisted. Boyz 2 men are an R&B act but had massive success on the pop charts and with a young audience as well as new edition, groups like Troop Jodeci &112, appeal to a more mature audience, while acts like hive five and soul for real were successful R&B acts not pop...The " Boy Bands" I've listed are synonymous with pop acts like Backstreet Boys & N'sync,
@tonyjacob79 When the term " Boy Band " is mentioned most ppl don't consider r&b a factor only if they were massively successful, especially appealing to a young, mostly female audience.
@tonyjacob79 Harsh much? I listen to a lot of the bands here on a regular basis. Not the newer ones like Jonas Brothers but those are still remembered by the general population. Why would you be rude about someone's opinion when you are doing it with an opinion that many might not agree with and using it as fact. "98% of these band. . ." and "you know nothing about music." Statements like those only serve to make yourself not credible.
The video showed a lot of awesome bands and songs.
and you have boyz ll men #6 why? this list sucks. 1 the jackson 5, 2 boyz ll men, 3 nysnc, 4 backstreet boys, 5 tie with jonas or hansons.. the rest, who gives a damn.. They are only remembered for one or two songs, Longevity is the key factor record sales.
@tonyjacob79 Who gives a damn!?! none of those later groups would exist without New Edition of New Kids on the Block...Longevity is only 1 factor, This a list of influential & popular Boy Bands not tonyjacob whatevers favorites...so take your head out of your ass, & oh yeah...U suck.
@MrBOBBYOO6 Only two of them ever sang! I'm really not trying to start anything, but I have more respect for boy bands such as the Backstreet Boys where all the boys sang.
@Detsurasu Not all of them did. Backstreet Boys are still together, Jonas Brothers are still together, Hanson is still together, New Kids on the Block are still together, Take That is still together, Blue is together. BoyzIIMen are still together.
bsb , boyzone , westlife ,nsync , nkotb are my fav's...
