Oh, You Kids

Let me be blunt--what is the problem with New Kids on the Block? The majority of articles I’ve seen in Calendar, (namely the review of “Step by Step”) have nit-picked, criticized and cut down anything they’ve done.

My heart is just on the verge of breaking because Willman didn’t like “Step by Step,” (but he’s never liked anything the New Kids have done, so it’s no surprise).

I hardly agree that “Step by Step” is a one-star album--it’s definitely five-star (and I haven’t even heard it all yet!). Could that be (gasp!) my wide-eyed innocence peeking through?
