On a stage together for the first time evahhh - New Kids on the Block and New Edition! #NKOTBxAMAs #NewEditionxAMAs #BattleOfAllMyChildhoodBoyfriends #BattleOfBoston
Why are people fighting' over "who won" in this? Y'all.....were you not listening. NK and NE don't see it as a battle, it's a brotherhood. Don't hate, appreciate!
I do. Alot of us do. But some just prefer music from our generation. I personally love most music from my generation but prefer music from past generations. New Edition and New Kids On The Block played a big part in my musical interests. Me and my classmate know the choreo to Mr Telephone Man and we do it whenever my teacher plays it.
I don't think you have to malign young people & say they don't know "what this means". I see a lot of young people in the audience having a blast. Music like this is timeless.
That man lost his world TWICE! I know he has no clue who I am. But I couldn’t be more prouder of him for having the strength to come home and be Bobby.
Seeing BTS stand up & engage with them… standing for the entire performance singing, dancing & genuinely having a great time is such a beautiful level of respect for both groups!!
that's cuz Donnie knows why NKOTB is a group in the first place. After NE left Maurice Starr, Starr set out to create the "white New Edition". Donnie classy as hell
@@dafneysdesserts BULLSHIT!! Donnie and the rest of the group always, always gave props to New Edition. You ARE aware the same producer created both groups and produced their albums, are you not? Donnie is not a hater, so quit talking trash you know squat about. Donnie not only gave props to NE, but the Jackson 5 as well. Still does.
25 years ago egos be in the way. Should it happen yes would it worked no. Both groups had inside issues especially NE. Time, age, maturity...NOW it can finally happen
@@dafneysdesserts that is so toxic and ignorant of you. You are on auto pilot with your persecution complex. You clearly don't know anything about nkotb otherwise you couldn't fix your ignorant mind to write something like that.
Yes yes yes,. Didn't Bobby B sound really good. Shit looked good too!! I Love B. Thru everything,. He is still standing. Keep him n ur Arms God🙏. Love me Some Chocolate Aquarius Bobby Brown 🤎❤️. Tammy Williams.
Yes. That wife must have him on a good diet regimen for his voice- no dairy, no alcohol, no acidic foods. IDK if he was a smoker but none of that, plus exercise to steady his breathing.
My favorite part of this whole thing is not just the sheer joy of watching these two groups perform together, but when they cut to the audience and show the members of BTS copying their dance moves and singing along… just ICONIC!!😍🤩💯💯🔥🎶🙌
As a fan of ALL 3 of these groups, it was EPIC to see see my childhood hearthrobs singing and dancing with their heroes and then the NEW generation of BTS dancing along! PLUS Joey Fatone from NSYNC dancing along! Bout lost MY mind like a teenager!!! 🥰😍🥰😍💜💜 MY teenagers had NO idea why I was freaking out so much! LOL 🤣
Imagine seeing the rehearsals for this performance?? I’d love to see the cracks, jokes, and fun times they had preparing for this. They’re boys! They’ve known eachother damn near their whole lives. So glad the industry showed some respect and put these talented men together to entertain us yet again.
Donnie is 100% right!!!! Without New Edition no boy band ever exist....NEW EDITION paved the way to NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK and my FAVOURITE NKOTB paved the way to all other boybands! Great RESPECT!!!
I was wrong the temptations were the first boyband they started in 1960 and the jackson 5 started in 1964 either way i love all of them and so happy they all exist if yiu havent seen the temptation movie its like the new edition story i highly recommend it you will love it
He meant the modern day ones. From the 80s-new edition paved the way. Especially with the concept of multiple members going solo, having SUCCESS, then coming back together. That was u heard of until new edition
@@antoinettelopes Um, yes? My mom was born in '69, and New Edition debuted in '78. They're her fave group, and obviously played these songs w/ us. We get it, yall our fossils, but the artists yall admire are not unrecognizable to younger people lol.
Donnie made that statement because for the longest time, a lot of people were not giving New Edition their props and the respect they deserve as well as the lane they paved for so many male groups AFTER New Edition, not before. I see a lot bringing up The Jacksons, Temptations, etc. like New Edition or News Kids don’t recognize those groups but this was about them. They had their time. New Edition is for this generation.
Jonathan knights solos (or mostly him): White Christmas, from New Kids on the Block, Christmas album circa '89/'90. Happy Birthday (Step by Step album) and in some of the songs since they've gotten back together, he has a few verses that are all his own.
Man, I started getting CHILLS when they all came on stage together. This performance was like no other. No matter the race, I love to see us come together like this.
Donnie just earned the up most respect of this young black boy of the 80s who looked up to new edition threw out the 80s n became a new kids fan during 89-90 as white new edition.
They are and have done. They on tour atm.. sadly due to covid mainly just North America. If u can head to Vegas there’s always awesome artists performing there
I don’t watch award shows anymore, so I missed it when it aired. So happy I get to see it here. I like NK, they have some great song. But NE did it for me. “Can you stand the rain” is one of my all time favorites. So happy to hear they will be touring - all of them. They are legends!
New Edition should get back in the studio with some talented producers and re-record both Candy Girl and New Edition LPs. They sound really good in the lower key with their adult voices.
I am totally obsessed with this performance!! I've watched it at least 50 times and counting!! These were 2 of my favorite groups back in the 80s and 90s and guess what.......THEY'VE STILL GOT IT!!!!! Best live performance I've seen in a looooong time!!! #NE #NKOTB ❤❤❤❤❤
Never really listened to NKOTB to be honest but some of their songs I heard on the radio and remembered them so that was actually cool, it's been years since I've heard them. Now, New Edition; that was fire .🔥 🔥 Ralph Tresvant has still got it. He was definitely my favorite. I'm fangirling like back in the day when I rode my bike to the music store with the allowance I just got to buy Ralph Tresvant's new solo album when it came out. Still have that cassette tape too. 😎👍
@@zeamer11 I loved BBD but I've had a iffy kind of feeling from them ever since I really paid attention to the lyrics of "Do Me!". For 30 years I sang along to the song but just a couple years ago I'm listening to it one night and had to stop it and go back. I heard it again and went online to read the lyrics because I wasn't sure if what I heard was correct but unfortunately it was. Can't quite listen to that song now. It just makes uncomfortable to listen to them now. I know it was a long time ago but because of my past, I just can't. That's why with New Edition, I just pay attention to Ralph and Bobby.
@@meeksluv I know. You think that's something that I like? I love BBD and I still do. That's my childhood. I was brought up on their music. And I still listen to their music, just have a difficult time with that song. I wish I never paid that close attention to the lyrics. I'm still jamming to their other songs though. 🤷🏻♀️
@@rebeccamerchant712 Humpin Around, Two can play that game, Get away, were massive hits in 92-94🤔, people were starting to focus on his personal life that’s why people forget but the billboard charts didn’t go check
@@eiyeedunno8826 I was thinking something similar; I guess it takes a certain level of maturity to understand your comment. These young uns don't get it.
THE two biggest boy bands EVER. HANDS DOWN! The younger generation has NO idea just how epic this performance was and why all of us middle aged folks turned into teenagers again. I know I sure did.
For those who don't know Johnny Gill was already a solo artist with his song half crazy and he sang with Staci Lattisaw. So he basically had back to back hit solo careers.
All the Menudo fans trying to say they paved the way for New Edition better look up The Jackson 5, The Temptations, The Stylistics, etc who New Edition have said actually influenced them.
Younger kids of today pay attention and take notes - this is how great music and a great show from 2 great musical groups is done!! As a side note just because of all he's been through, I am so glad Bobby is back up there with them, doing his thing, and sounding freaking great!
I don’t think some people realize what just happened especially the younger crowd. This was probably one of the best performance I’ve seen in a while the Kendrick and Imagine Dragons still my favorite though!
No the younger crowd that watched this do not know what they jus saw. They still in to the 90 music. They needed to see how 2 groups can sing on the same stage 2gether and RESPECT each other with Good Music and not talk Shit Later👍😋.
These are non manufactured groups that grew up together in the inner city! The groups nowadays are talented but when you grow up together as kids it just adds so much! ✊🏾✊🏾
I grew up listening to New Edition💖...I almost cried watching them perform. The performance I didn't know I needed at this very moment. I love them💕 to the moon🌚 and back🌠.
The voice of Johnny Gill … the pure soul of New Edition … the madness of NKOTB, the amazing amazing memories all these songs bring back. Thank you fellas! Thank you the world and back for ever! ❤️
EPIC performance. Thank you AMAs for FINALLY putting this together and making this actually happen!! BTS in the audience taking notes on longevity in this business.
OMG this was history-making for real Bobby sound good looks good all of them love these groups. Some of the Young Generation have no clue the groundbreaking of all these young talented men. The best that ever did it. Legends!! They need a tour I'm there.❤
I have watched this about 100 times already. Both groups sounded great and were on point. Don't overlook the WONDERFUL job the choreographer, stage manager, producers, and all those behind the scenes that made this possible. It was EPIC!!
This was EPIC!!!! Two super groups on stage at the same time. The Mash up of Is this the end and Please don't go girl was amazing. All of them dancing to If it isn't love.............WOW!!!! You can also tell how far music has sunk since these two groups rules their eras. The songs were about love, girls, heartbreak, having fun, etc. Now it's all about drugs, money, guns etc. I miss this era. The tour will hopefully be amazing!
Wish the new kids brought back more of their classic dance moves for this show. That’s what made NE’s performance so good, they kept the same classic moves. Would have made it more iconic.
Donnie is HYPE!!!! And to see Boys II Men, Nysync, and the k-pop bands enjoying and paying homage to these vets is amazing. Two talented groups from Boston! Salute! Boston, you birthed two great acts.
Boy bands are the best...they both win in this. It is about the brotherhood of Boy Bands everywhere!! Love Donnie and Joey forever. ❤ New Edition and NKOTB sound great together ❤ love the songs 🎵 ❤ it takes you back in 80s. All boy bands have so many handsome, creative, and extremely talented boys everywhere. Both bands from Boston 😎.
