About the band/song... New Kids on the Block is an American boy band that enjoyed success in the late 1980s and early 1990s and went on to sell 80 million records worldwide. Assembled in Boston in 1984 by producer Maurice Starr, the members consist of brothers Jordan and Jonathan Knight, Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg, and Danny Wood. They won two American Music Awards in 1990 for Favorite Pop/Rock Band, Duo, or Group and Favorite Pop/Rock Album. After having disbanded in 1994, several attempts were made to get the group back together, all of them unsuccessful. After secretly reuniting in 2007 and recording a new CD, the group released that new album and embarked on a concert tour in 2008. The album, entitled The Block was released on September 2, 2008. "Step by Step" is the biggest selling single from New Kids on the Block. Written by Maurice Starr, it was a huge worldwide hit selling over 6.5 million copies worldwide making it one of the biggest selling singles of 1990. It was the first single from the album of the same name, it was released on the 10th of May 1990. The song spent three weeks at #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and was eventually certified platinum, it also spent two weeks at #1 in the Canadian Singles Chart, in total "Step by Step" spent five weeks at #1 in the North American charts. It also peaked at #2 on the UK Singles Chart and was also top 10 hits in the Australian, French, German, Irish and Norweigan charts. "Step by Step" was initially not meant to be recorded by the New Kids on the Block but was meant for one of Maurice Starr's other groups, but once the New Kids heard the song they insisted on making it a record for themselves, which it thus did and became their biggest selling single. It is also one of their signature songs. |
