[@ericawoodard807]

@hanson I love this string theory of mmmbop.

[@jakelinepereira4]

😍😍😍

[@stacimul1975]

Xxx

[@jmclements22]

Well done, gentlemen!

[@stevensstones]

You've been my favorite artists since I was 12! I'm 33 now and still listening!! ♥️♥️♥️ Also, I live in OKC so I'll be coming to Tulsa to try MmmHops! Love y'all!

[@jeffharder8706]

It doesn’t matter what version of this song comes out, it’s still one of THE best pop songs ever

[@desireelococo1747]

Yep!!!!!

[@angelacase2331]

Agreed!

[@cherylpeterson8570]

So good!

[@edgarguzmanmoreno5126]

I agree

[@blessedwithpink1440]

I love both versions

[@tmckmusic8584]

This song has always been more profound than it ever got credit for. This version does it justice.

[@alessiocece2098]

You mean the profoundness?

[@ragnaice]

Never thought mmmbop would be goosebumps inducing. Orchestras make everything better.

[@Pickles260]

100% agreed!

[@darcie5742]

Love the orchestra playing with all songs, takes it to a higher level

[@Darthmaulini]

I have mad respect for anyone that can sing and play a drum simultaneously

[@izzymurati1987]

Good for you

[@Tigers_and_Tarot]

If MMMBop was in a Disney movie, this would be it.

[@capismama2922]

Gotta say it...I'm in my 60s and I LOVE this song. I respect these guys to some great depths, simply cos they have NEVER turned away from this song. Many groups stop playing their older hits due to them sounding so "juvenile" for them as adults. I APPLAUD Hanson for continuing to play this song in concerts or live TV showings.

[@izzymurati1987]

What is the name of your dog

[@mamanaf]

Exactly! I just saw an interview & they said - how can you hate a song that is loved by so many. Truest words ever spoken 💕

[@robertweinblatt2018]

This song has wings cause I'm flyin👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💥💥💥😘😘😘

[@christel3742]

Saw this posted, clicked it so fast, and even my husband is bobbing his head while our kids dance around.

[@hanson]

Glad you all like it

[@EruvieBruinen]

This song is timeless and for anyone. That's why I love it so much and always will :-)

[@Junokaii]

A song spanning generations now 🙂

[@frauleinButter]

This version tickles my ADHD brain on so many wonderful levels. The harmonies, the multi layers instruments. It's an amazing song and arrangement and so great for auditory stimming 💕 this is gonna be my new hyperfixation song

[@RIZFERD]

Simply the only song (whole album actually) can make me fall sleep instantly in car during very long road journey as it used to in the 1990s between Java and Sumatra back and forth

[@MMMBopster]

I cant wait to hear the new 2023 studio re-recording you guys have mentioned

[@dawnjohnson3065]

❤😂🎉😢😮😅😅😅😊I. I. Love you and miss

[@thobie8]

Hanson is still my favorite..reminds me of good times when I was young...love their music

[@jimmyvibes]

I thought nothing could beat the acoustic version, then here comes the orchestrated version!

[@PatriciaMoreno-ff8pr]

Really like this version...maybe more than the original studio version way back in 1997 when these three guys kind of came out of nowhere with this signature song, when they were just very young long haired lads. I was already in my early 30's by then, but this song had me Mmm bopping & jamming to it like a teenager when it came on the radio ! This version is so cool with the orchestra & some semi-accapella vocals particularily by Taylor in the beginning. Sounds so good ! Makes me love the song all over again. Nice to see their talent and interest in creating, playing & performing music has endured.

[@eileenchmielewski1420]

Agree 100%

[@dickfitswell3437]

By far the best version, imho

56 years old and this has to one of my favorite performances ever!!!! Absolutely amazing vocals and arrangement.

[@ericamaddox5497]

My dad introduced Hanson to my sister and I when we were both 9 and 10, we don't have a relationship with our dad as adults now, but I will forever be thankful to him for giving us this musical gift of brothers whom we still love. I consider Hanson the first music I listened to that was during my era prior to that we were only allowed to listen to oldies like Temptations, Jackie Wilson, Stevie Wonder and Jackson 5 which I am so thankful for. But when these boys came into my life everything changed it felt familiar with a touch of a something new. #foreverafanson

[@izzymurati1987]

Stop writing a long paragraph

[@RobMacKendrick]

Normally a group that's made a lifetime career out of just one song would be the stuff of comedy. But when Hanson does it, it's genius. I never tire of this.

[@amandarobison3681]

They’ve not made a career out of just “MMMBop”. They just released a new album back in November and will be celebrating 30 years as a band next year.

[@angelacase2331]

@@amandarobison3681 that's true but most people only know them from Mmmbop and think they were a one hit wonder because they're not mainstream now

[@renevanderwesthuizen1520]

I LOVE Penny and me and If only as well. I actually love those songs more than Mmmbop. Although, these acoustic versions of MMMbop is winning me over to mmbop. But the other songs were played a lot on our radio stations as well.

[@AstraVex]

They've done 13 albums! xD

[@mafiaboy23ca]

I saw Hanson on show twice and if they played Mmmbop both times, it's obvious they made other hits too. I love their music a lot.

[@jd3076]

No doubt MMMBOP is one the BEST and Timeless Pop Song EVER Created Simple yet catchy as hell

[@paulhare662]

With lyrics that have the timeless truth of a John Prine song.

[@michellecaparas8782]

This song is like an anthem to me... Been listening to it more than 2 decades now.

[@Jo.885]

Still love you guys!!!!!

[@bobbystroem9037]

Awesome Job! They are such seasoned singers and gel very very well together. Razor Sharp Harmonies! The best since the Bee Gees

[@aleksandramala9216]

Super wykonanie🙂

[@ianroberts9195]

97 folks who gave it a “thumbs down” have zero clue. This is all about how to harmonize like no other.

[@debbylambert3319]

They harmonize the way only siblings can! I love when families sing together...its a pure sound which can not be imitated!

[@lauralacoco8076]

When you just stop everything to watch this :MMMBop the anthem of Hanson.. thank you guys you bring me a lot of happiness and joy in my life and I just can't thank you enough for this :) See you in London, I can't wait !

[@andybaker717]

Oh the privilege to have been in that chamber that day!!!!!

[@hlessiavedon]

As a 90's child (born in 91) this is the definition of nostalgia. This song is the first song I definitively remember hearing on the radio. Hearing it now, with the band grown up, is just so amazingly perfect.

[@icdas7158]

Loved them back in the day and now , awesome song

[@yarangimchen2495]

I'm grown up listening to this song. Remembering sweet 90's.

[@catherinelucero7825]

Still hearing it after 15 years.... Hanson is a legend

[@darknoob7581]

Everything about this works! Mmmbop was always a great song, but this is just amazing! The way the song builds from 1:15 , the vocals everything. This has to be the ultimate version of Mmmbop. Absolutely amazing 🤗

[@rebekahmaddox1531]

I agree!

[@Itsmehi456]

This version is so moving! Needs more views. I could listen over and over and over! Thank you for this slice of heaven.

[@HeyitsDee]

*_LYRICS BELOW_* I never could understand what they were saying, but the lyrics to this song are pretty amazing, considering how young they were when they wrote this (Zac was just 8 years old when it was written, and 12 when the world heard it). "In an mmmbop they're gone". Powerful: "MMMBop" Oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Yeah You have so many relationships in this life Only one or two will last You go through all the pain and strife Then you turn your back and they're gone so fast Oh yeah And they're gone so fast, yeah Oh, so hold on the ones who really care In the end they'll be the only ones there And when you get old and start losing your hair Can you tell me who will still care?

[@marydouglas7514]

This is the song my now 26-year-old son sang repeatedly when he was six years old. He would do a perfect imitation of Taylor, including facial expressions and body movements, in front of our piano daily. As an individual with autism, he had a remarkable ability to remember every detail of their music, and can still identify every song they have produced within seconds of hearing the first bars of the music. He only 7 years old when he first saw them in concert for his birthday, and has seen them multiple times since. We recently saw the concert in Cleveland, and he loved it! Thanks for providing such amazing music that my entire family loves!

Never got to go to a concert bc of surgeries but the music was always what I played before and after. Thank you Hanson for being a part of my heart and soul for all these years.

Then, in 1998, we drove via Broken Arrow to Phoenix to visit their uncle... even had to eat at their "favorite" restaurant... sigh- all for our daughters.
