I am with ya seras. I was to young to remember them but I know they're no N'Sync. I am surprised.
|

Uh, don't know what happened there. No. 2? WTH? LOL, OMG! I ♥ NKOTB! While I'm not as crazy a fan this time around, I'm really happy for them.

Yah Woop I agree- Im shocked it did that well but I'm definitely happy about it. More actual singing would be nice on the radio rather than, I'm sorry, whats your name, Jeezy? Really?
|
 |
10
I bought it and I love it!

I am not surprised in the least, I think most girls who liked them before still like them (even if its in private lol). I didn't buy the album but their new song is good and there old stuff is classic
|
 |
13
I am an awful diehard fan.
|
|
|
14
Thanks, Jenna! Brian, yes more singing. BTW, does it show my age if I wonder, "Who's Jeezy?"
|
 |
15
OMG THEY SUCK.
|
|
|
16
That doesnt show your age at all! I'm the age that apparently likes this crap! I honestly was saying that about half of the terrible bands that were on the VMA's! Who is that? or What song do they sing? I honestly have no idea who Jeezy or his brother Sheezy or his mom Wheezy is but apparently the kids like em.
|
|
|
17
Brian, Wheezy from The Jeffersons? I know Wheezy, fo sheezy.
|
|
|
18
"I honestly have no idea who Jeezy or his brother Sheezy or his mom Wheezy is but apparently the kids like em."
|
|
|
19
haha - I know Wheezy but I just wanted to say that!
|

You guys are crazy! I wasn't a fan of NKTB the first time around...I like Summertime though. I just don't do the fan thing. Did someone say N'SYNC??? Where? Where! ...Quit playing!...games with my heart...heehee hee.
|
 |
21
Oh Brian. Did you really just use Jeezy, Wheezy and Sheezy in one sentence? Dude, I'm worried about you!
|
  |
22
I am surprised it only got to #2 considering all the solid hype they've had for months, not to mention the curiosity factor. They only sold about 100k and were 150k away from the #1 spot. This doesn't bode well for them and I am sure the album will drop quickly down the charts in the coming weeks.

|
23
Mykie that was hilarious and you know it! Laugh LADY!
|
 |
24
I am very excited, im not as excited for their new stuff as i am for their old stuff...got my floor seats for their concert!!
|
|
|
25
listening to their greatest hits cd takes me back to being 8 years old all over again!
|
|
|
26
I dont get them at all.
|
 |
27
I am a diehard fan, bought the CD, love it, and will be seeing them in November! I am still surprised it sold so many, but very happy for them!
|
 |
28
They obviously dont suck. A lot of ppl love them. NKOTB is da bomb.
|
 |
29
They are #2 because they are "hanging tough":
|
|
|
30
Bri, What the heezy!?!
|
|
|
31
T, you know Jeezy?
|
|
|
32
Oh, Brian, I WAS laughing. I'm STILL Laughing. I'm just in shock over the whole Steve/Kelly thing. I can't believe it...
|
|
|
33
Bri, I do know Jeezy, and from I've learned, Jeezy himself has proclaimed that "Jeezy's on some other shizz"...and that's foreezy!!!
|
 |
34
Oh, pleezy! Did I just type that out loud? They need a new gig? Don't they KNOW they are NO LONGER KIDS?
|
|
|
35
tiabia - as usual robin, haha. you wrote "oh, pleezy" cuz being cheezy is easy breezy - and contagious.
|
|
|
36
Oh, sheezy. Now STOP thaaaaat!
|
|
|
37
The "ezzies" have gotten way out of hand,
|
|
|
38
Okay, now I've got "Easy Breezy Beautiful" stuck in my head. THANKS A LOT!
|
 |
39
Ugh, I can't stand boys bands. They are so fake and too obvious with attracting naive young girls with their sirupy songs and the banalities of their lyrics.
|
|
|
40
"their sirupy songs and the banalities of their lyrics" but... that's the fun of it...
|
|
|
41
It could be fun as they are easy to imitate and mock. But it can be sad also. Mostly when you hear about girls actually crying at their concerts...
|
|
|
42
But Juicylemon, That's the hilarity of the matter (the crying girls).
|
|
|
43
true. Like when that girl on TRL who was about to explode because she was breathing near a Jonas kid. Sad? Yes. Funny? Yes, also.
|
|
|
44
okay... Freezy with the ezies...no?
|
|
|
45
Mesayme - yeah. I think it's making people queezy.
|
 |
46
I was a fan when I was a kid. I heard they were having a lot of success this summer.
|
I meant...
I don't have concert tickets nor this album in my greasy little hands. 
Dirty, dirty, dawgs....dirty dawgs (DAWGS)
I abhored this band when they first came out and I was the only chick I knew who hated them.Still cannot believe how popular they were and apparently still are.
