I heart NKOTB

Ok so there's been a few rumours around these last few days that maybe just maybe 20 yrs after launching into the hearts of young girls around the world...The New Kids On The Block could be making a come back.....the 10-12 yr old in me is squealing for joy hehehehe...they have even posted a new song on their official webiste a website I can't get into right now because my stupid computer won't let me download the flashplayer that's needed before u enter.....like so not fair ppl!!!.....hopefully I can fix in the next few days:):):) anyways I can only go by what I have heard through the gossip grape vine....and that is that yes there is a new song (I think) and there r hints of a come back arghh!!!! if they do come back maybe they can wait till I'm coming to the States in December 08 u know do it as a christmas thing.....but I bet it'll be a summer 08 thing instead which means I'll miss
out:(:(.....(I don't think my bosses will quite understand the need for 2 trips to the States this year especially when one of those trips is purely a nostalgia trip for an 80's geek like me hehehehehe.....nor could my creidt cards for that matter) so who knows.....if anybody knows anything please keep me updated:):):)......and if u r a closeted fan or even a still loyal fan with tee shirts and buttons lets hear from ya too.....anyways here's how my love of NKOTB started....so I'm 10 it's the summer holidays and I'm over at my neighbours house.....we r in her room listening to the radio when I hear cover girl come on....OMG I'm thinking who r these ppl.....anyways a few days later I'm in a book store and I see the new kids all over magazines back then in NZ we used to get all the teeny bopper magazines from the states.....and from there I was hooked.....I loved Joe the best followed by Jordan:):):) they were the one and only band to go on my walls and they covered them too....I loved all their songs as did all my friends...in fact my friend Lesley was soooo obsessed with them her parents spent $3000 buying her everything related to New Kids.....(no wonder she was the most popular girl in elementary school) anyways the love affair lasted from the ages of 10 to around 12/13....after step by step had come and gone.....then I moved to highschool and new kids became a distant memory...and I turned to more appropriate dis-enfranchised youth music that talked more to the tortured teenage soul that I was becoming:):):).....as well as other hotter boy bands of the day like Color Me Badd:):):)but the new kids will always have that special spot in my heart as they were my first.....my first celebrity crush (oh joey joe hehehe)....my first boy band.....and they will always be to me as well as i'm sure to many of u a symbolisation of the innocence of childhood..(my childhood)...so I'm sure millions of other 80's kids and teens who loved the new kids r just as excited as me to hear of the possible comeback even if it's just a one off.....it'll be nice to let that inner-child out to scream and fall in love with them all over again:):):):)
