I Love the 90's Song of the Day - The Boy Bands, Part 1 - Step by Step - NKOTB

The 1990's could very well have been known as the decade of the boy band. Just a few short months ago I spoke of the boy band phenomenon, and how it has returned recently with the British Invasion of The Wanted and One Direction.  Well, boy bands can really be traced back to the 80's, with the assemblage of New Edition, New Kids on the Block, and several others, but it was really the 90's when the genre of sugary sweet pop music performed by prefabricated pretty boys who could sing and dance came to be a major force in the music industry.


I had originally planned to do a mega-Song of the Day post featuring some of the best of 90's boy bands, but since there are so many to choose from, we'll be featuring a whole week's worth of boy band Songs of the Day, starting with one of NKOTB's last true hits from the year 1990.  At the time, Jordan, Jonathan, Donnie, Joey and Danny were the pop idols of music, riding the crest of a wave that still flows even today.  Enjoy Step by Step and have a wonderful Monday!
