Formulas

Turns out this NKOTB reunion thing isn't just a publicity stunt, and there's a hokey single to prove it. The song, "Click, Click, Click," is about the Kids getting aroused while taking pictures of women. "Pose for me," they plead. The word "feenin'" is used.

Before you play it, imagine how it sounds. We promise, your guess won't be far off. Enjoy?

    Man………….I don't care what anyone says…..it sounds pretty tight…..I'm sure if Justin came out with this same song everyone would be jockin it…..just cause it's New Kids it doesn't make it bad…….I like it :o)

    I love this song… the other poster is right, if Justin came out with it- you'd be hearing it everywhere. :)

    I agree with Cord…it's formulaic, and not a very good formula either. It's also not too current sounding.

    I do agree with the other two posters on one point though- if this was by Timberlake, it would be everywhere, bad or not. Not that I'm a JT fan…waaaay overhyped.

    I really wanted to like that, for old times sake…maybe if I hear it again. Later. Much later.

    I didn't not like it because of it being NKOTB - as a matter of fact, I think the ONLY reason that this little reunion might work is because anyone of the age that will listen to them doesn't even know who they WERE - the song itself sucked.

    Joey, the former love of my life, you've got the wrong stuff, baby.

    Better than most of the crap out there today. Tattoo. WTF? Rianna's new single. She needs to stick to the fast songs. JT. Overhyped. Let's not forget that lindsay and now scarlett have music. Stick to trying to act.

    I see no reason to be harsh on this song, its fun and is a good sound to ring in the spring and subsequent warm weather with. Good to see the nkotb are still looking hot, I'd definetly see them in concert :)
    And why the comparison to JT? Its not like he holds the rights to the pop music genre. In a strange way, he's just building on what the nkotb started. Maybe pop has come full circle, HAHA.

    Well, it's actually quite okay. At least they did not go back to their Hangin' Tough or Step by Step kinda poppish sound. This is much modern and relatively much mature.

    The challenge will be if they could garner enough airplay to make it a hit.

    I like it… And frankly if it were any other artist, it wouldn't be an issue. They matured over the last 20 years, it's sad their critics didn't.

    Don't know why anyone cares about some stupid bloggers opinions anyway. it's definitely better than 99 percent of the garbage taking over the airwaves these days. got a good dance beat, sexy lyrics. ya'll are just hating BECAUSE it's NKOTB. if it was NSYNC's "Comeback Single" it would be "Cutting Edge". Go on NKOTB do your thing youre TRUE fans are behind you all the way!!!!!!

    It sounds tight! Unlike a lot of the garbage that's out there, especially on supposedly music television. This song originally came out under the artist Nasri and people would not be hating on it if it weren't NKOTB singing it. People need to open their minds.

    dude, this song is SICK. leave your prejudices at the door and you'd have an honest opinion. and seriously, you're gonna dis the lyrics when the airwaves are polluted with songs like umbrella, tattoo, and lip gloss? oh wait, i forgot– a song can't be HOT unless it's about a shawty in the the club right?
    anyway, who gives a damn about the ignorant opinion of some blogger. i've heard from serious music critics who think it's hot.

    I think it's a good song…and if any body else would have recoreded it it wouldn't be an issue….just cuz it's NKOTB people are gonna judge it…give them a chance. There are worse songs out there and worse singers out there too….

    I love it.. can't wait for the cd to come out.. they sound better than ever!!! They're aren't given a fair chance just because of who they are.. what's the big deal anyway?? There have been numerous boybands since them so everyone shoulda gotten over that term already..does it really matter?? they should be judged on their sound not their name… if it was anyone else… glad ur back guys, sounds goooood!!!

    I was never a huge fan of NKOTB back in the day but I was curious if this song was gonna be any good. And, I have to admit, it's a sexy song. Sounds like something you should make out to. haha Not the best thing out there but I can dig it. :D

    This is not my kind of music, but being from the NKOTB "era" it is definitely grown up compared to old sound. I just wish that maybe Cord could have gotten the point of the song correct before trying to sound witty:

    "The song, “Click, Click, Click,” is about the Kids getting aroused while taking pictures of women."

    Not even close. He's talking about how good his girl looks, and he is sitting and waiting for her while she is getting ready to go out, with him. If you actually listen to the WORDS of the song, he says "let me take a mental shot of this moment" because his girl is so hot he doesn't want that moment to ever end. Get a clue before you speak.
