Eventually the band would become one of the most popular boy bands in the 80s and early 90s, touring across the globe and selling more than 70 million albums worldwide. Their first album release became triple platinum certified in the United States, and they continued to make hit songs. Their second album entitled “Hangin’ Tough” included songs such as “I’ll Be Loving You (Forever)”, and “You Got It (The Right Stuff)”. During the 1994 tour entitled “Face the Music”, band member Jonathan Knight left the band and this led to the disbandment of New Kids on the Block.
