New Kids On The Block - Step By Step (Live in Calgary)

[papillonaquatique]

Who cares if they were lip syncing? They could lip sync the phone book and I would still buy a ticket to see them! :D

[getmeadrinkbitch]

your all stupid...thats not lip singing...

[BobSponge5]

@getmeadrinkbitch ikr it cant be considering that there singing voices have changed in 20 years from the original version

[raquel4221998]

jordan an joye r so HOTTTT....new kids on the blok sing so great

[raquel4221998]

theses guys r so good.....and HOTTTTT

[KaneHodderFan32]

The can't even dance as good as they use too. The still sound okay though...I loved them when i was growing up.

[DuhamelVegas]

Jordan isn't lip singing.

He's hot. 

[JoJo201132]

It's not lip singing... they recorded some stuff for back ground.... they r all real!!



[4everdonnie]

@Flurry84 1 obviously ur just jealuse cuz this is there song did it the same in the '80 hard to lip it way back when & still get it THE SAME DAMN WAY hello!!!!!

[Flurry84]

@4everdonnie What the fuck are you on about? I'm not jealous of anything. I'm not even condemning them for using backing tracks, I'm just providing explanations. It's been common practice among pop groups for over a decade to use backing tracks to maintain harmonies. But if you can't handle that and need to get your knickers in a twist and start throwing out the tired jealousy arguments, you need to consider your own priorities.

[iMISSYOUMJx3]

So what with lip-synching? They are still A W E S O M E !

[mizztennessee901]

I need to find someone to go to the concert in nashville with me in june. if i cant find anyone i'll go by myself. none of my friends want to go because we are all in our late 20's and african american. ugh people can be so closed minded but i was obsessed with them in the 80's

[JoshYawn]

They aren't lip syncing but there's definitely a backing track. I mean, you can hear both Jordan's falsetto part and his full voice part simultaneously. No big deal though, they're just trying to recreate it as faithfully as we're used to hearing it as possible. Nothing wrong with that either.

[MarPal70]

embarrassing outfits these middle aged guys were made to wear. In the ol' days we use to call them the KNOBS.

[leffetcouture]

Nearly ten years since i know NKOTB, love them, xxx FLo

[87alsjth]

Girl, I would've fainted if I was there lol. Good job on videotaping and keeping your cool. Haha!

[monstercuddle]

more more more

[aullaralaluna]

koolest ever concert

[Emeletbaby]

AZTAROHADT!!! Ez nagyon cool!

[ednelsonsaoroque]

very good....the best year 80!!!!!!!Show....

[bamababy4913]

I miss the sprinkler move. :(

LOL I think they still sound and look great! Of course, they were younger twenty years ago, had lots more energy then. But, all things considered, I would say this is an awesome comeback!

[boxtortoise2003]

Cute. A few asspals having a good time.

[Leahb41]

really sounds gooooood.

[HoTaNdSwEeT]

so PISSED i missed this concert! RAWR! I LOVE DONNIE! <3

[diseasethatmadeit]

why did they start performig again

looks like grandpa doing his last steps

if they really were the best payed band back in the days and if they really sold merch for 1.000.000.000$

a year why did they have to come back for that lousy kind of lipsinging lame bullshit.

loved them back in the days

but this is crap

[RJP7093]

they are definitely not lip synching the whole thing. i think they'd sound better than this if they were.

[tuttskifruttski]

There are backing tracks here, definitely but the main vocals are all sung live.

[sehille4774]

well jordan is definitely not lip singing

[TheLSammy]

I was really in løøøve with this guys!!! Donnie was my favorite!!

[pkatharine]

i don't think they're lypsynching. it's definitely live. they have back up singers

[emtgirl25]

well its not exactly lip-singing since its already their song, that they did like 20 years ago

[Flurry84]

LMAO. It's still lip-synching in every sense of the word. It happens often in groups, though, they use backing tracks when the group is singing together, as it's difficult to recreate the harmonies in a live setting. Most pop groups do it.

[spidermanbmw80]

@Flurry84

Nsync never did that nor did the BSB. Still a big fan of NKOTB but they are older and dancing and singing is not as easy as it used to be. Was at their concert. It was great. I respect live singing and respect the New Kids for it. It's hard to do

[Cmajor66]

@spidermanbmw80 I believe there's a video of BSB doing "I Want It That Way" (a perfect pop song) live on Top of the Pops (they're wearing all white), and they cut the harmonies flawlessly. No lip synching. I'm not a big fan of any of these fluffy boy bands, but in terms of vocal skill, BSB are leagues above NKOTB.

[tenor335]

@Flurry84 It's not difficult to recreate harmonies in a live setting. I've done it many times myself. There are tons of vids online of BSB and Nsync that are pretty obviously live as well if you know what to look for. But yeah, this isn't completely live. Is there anything online with the New Kids singing in five part harmony a cappella? Like for an interview or something? Cause I'm kinda skeptical when a "harmony group" hasn't done anything off the cuff a cappella.

[mazms]

@Flurry84 BSB is the exceptional for lip-synching

[CelesteK]

@mazms Excuse me? New Kids on the Block never lipsynced in the first place. That was something that someone made up. :(

[BobSponge5]

@Flurry84 first off they have the song playing in the background so that if they forget the words they wont look stupid in front of everybody so they can hear the damn song and know what there singing genius

[MNGHomeTown]

wow.I very like this song.thanks

[maryquant1967]

at about 1:18 the other guys are n't singing at the microphones but you can still hear background singing.

[lessof2evils]

Jon's dancing has really improved

[TuttiCareDigimon4Eva]

They RoocK!!!<3<3<3

[TuttiCareDigimon4Eva]

your a mother fucker ;)

[MaSa862]

*LOL i agree =)

[Meldeleieff]

I grew up watching nkob, but they suck now. I guess because they are old. still watching the old videos though. and I dance better haha

[iiiCIELOiii]

waoooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO aaaaaaaaaaaaa te amooooooo!!!!

[vicki2288]

i went to there concert earlier this month and it was freakin' awesome. by far the best concert i attended. they r all gorgeous. love nkotb.

[laidesman202]

they broke up again they dont sell any albums anymore and they just do concerts

[mariecam123]

omg they mixed it up, but its nice !! luv the foot work !!! but i really wanted 2 see the steps 1-5 !!! im dying 2 go to a concert luv the high notes by jordan !!!!

[pussycatdoll1fan]

seeing them on sunday<3

cant waiittt

[annaric]

I have never enjoyed a concert more in my ENTIRE life.  And now I'm booked to see them in Kelowna! 5 star VIP again I can't WAIT!

[LynRain1981]

I love how Danny was doing the booty dance....I saw them in October and it was Jon who was doing the booty dance at the time....that was definitely the highlight of my night lol...love this video too :)

[martilovesnkotb]

Danny and Jon both do the booty dance!

[stlouisluv]

i just realized donnie was dancing like a mad man , thats why jordan was laughing his ass off looooooool

[Flurry84]

Actually, I think he's laughing cause he messed up the dance moves. He was a step ahead of everyone else.

[stlouisluv]

oo my bad LOL, BTW--was this filmed thru ur digital camera or an actual camcorder? I wanna catch them in nashville nxt month and i wanna bring my camcorder...is that risking it?

[Flurry84]

I wouldn't risk it. Most concerts these days have the No Cameras/Recorders. Usually the cameras part is referring to professional cameras with like telephoto lenses and such. But they're pretty strict on recorders.

I would bring your digital camera, esp. if it has video capabilities. There shouldn't be any risk in taking pictures, but try not to get caught taking video.

[stlouisluv]

cool thanxx :)

[stlouisluv]

sorry ONE more question and im gonna shut up....what row/seats were u in?

[Flurry84]

lol. No worries. I was in Row 9 on the first level, one section back from the stage. AMAZING seats. Great unobstructed view, so close!

[stlouisluv]

awesome thanks!!!

[mirrors23]

A M A Z I NG!

Saw them at Hammersmith Apollo and they are EVEN better than they were before!

And they put on a great show..

So glad they are back, I never realised how much I missed them!

[stlouisluv]

loooooool jordan is so silly. not to mention effin fine.

[blacam0628]

Donnie screwing up the steps at the beginning and Jordan too tickled to sing! That's the best!

[DeeAnnluvs2dance]

One of my fave New Kids song. I did this song for my school homecoming talent show and everyone loved it.

[uoyebutbackwords]

Usually I'm a hard ass on video from concerts, but this was actually good and showed me a few things. I actually saw this show...First of all I'm a Straight Male. With that said... I actually noticed that the only New Kid really going full force with heart in this particular video was Donnie. You could see it in his dancing and singing. He doesn't need to do it for his career but felt it in his heart here. Next, Mcintyre or Danny, or Jordan...I don't know. Jon was last. Out of his bubble.
