5.0 out of 5 stars Their best album!!!!!!!, May 28, 2004

By	Preston L. Moreaux (North Carolina) - See all my reviews

I still think that "Step By Step" was their best album! All of the songs were good and a step higher than "Hangin' Tough," Most of the first half I still like and Donnie's reggae turn on "Stay With Me Baby" was fun. But I still love "Funny Feeling" and I still wonder why it wasn't a single. At the time, I think that some people were getting a little tired of New Kids on the radio and TV, so they moved on to other artists during early '91. But this album stayed strong for about a year even though it didn't have a lot of hits or singles from it. I still love "Step By Step"--still sing along to it even today. If I see the CD again in stores, new or used CD section, I would definitely buy it! I like the use of strings playing on the album and that they co-produced the album along with Maurice Starr. Starr's music was kind of slipping a bit during 1990, so having the New Kids involved on this album just brought new things and ideas to it. This group did mature on this album as well as the later 1994 album "Face The Music" and it shows on all the songs. Most of the New Kids fans were teens, but I was 20 when I heard this album, and I felt that they proved themselves in the pop music scene in 1990.

5.0 out of 5 stars Talk about a flashback, March 29, 2004

By A Customer

I was with my best friend and her boyfriend this past weekend and her boyfriend put this CD in their player. It brought back a flood of memories. During step by step we still knew who sang what step and the words to it. I remember I went to see them on July 14, 1990 it was raining and I was on a hillside I fell and broke my ankle and I cried so hard because I didnt get to see "my donnie" and I was on crutches for the rest of the summer. But I did end up getting to see them that November. Because of my parents telling my story they moved us 6 rows back from the stage.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'll Be Loving New Kids (Forever), April 26, 2000

By	Freeda (Quebec, Canada) - See all my reviews

I remember owning this album when I was 5 years old, and for a five year old I didn't really know that much on music, so I taped it over. But now I'm 15 and I SHOULD be loving the BSB or 'N Sync, but NOPE! I've still kept a place for the new kids. Eventhough HANGIN' TOUGH was the greatest album they've ever made, Step by Step has many hit singles that I'm sure many BSB and 'N Sync fans can still remember, maybe not clearly but enough. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" "TONIGHT" "FUNNY FEELING" "LET'S TRY IT AGAIN" "BABY, I BELIEVE IN YOU" "CALL IT WHAT YOU WANT" and the still very popular pop anthem "STEP BY STEP." If I was to suggest the greatest pop album, BESIDES FROM THE GREAT HANGIN' TOUGH, it would definitly be STEP BY STEP by the unforgettable boy band THE NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK!
