New Kids on the Block ``Greatest Hits'' SonyBMG

It's hard to believe but it's been more than 20 years since the New Kids on the Block released their first self-titled album in 1986. Thanks to songs like ``Please Don't Go Girl,'' ``I'll Be Loving You (Forever)'' and ``Step by Step,'' the five boys from Boston sang and danced their way to the hearts of millions of teenage girls all over the world.

This new Greatest Hits compilation album includes 14 songs from the New Kids' six albums and 4 bonus tracks, namely: ``2008 New Kids Mega Mix''; ``Angel of Love'' Jordan Knight's duet with Ana; ``The Right Combination,'' Donnie Wahlberg's duet with Seiko; and Joey McIntyre's solo ``Stay the Same.'' Die-hard fans should pick up the ``fan pack edition,'' which comes with a DVD of 14 New Kids music videos.
