[@Lovejazz01]

Saw these guys last year for the first time , they haven’t lost a step or a note, still stellar performances, they did every single hit!

[@oreealford9729]

New Edition CAN YOU STAND THE RAIN

[@23gobears]

My favorite New Edition song EVER!

[@Tar-Numendil]

​@23gobears Mine as well, it's my favorite song outside of Country Music.

[@Coco-51223]

Ralph sang soo beautiful They started out in 1982 with “candy girl”

[@Tar-Numendil]

Ralph Tresvant's voice is just incredible. I love New Edition.

[@kimberlinibambini1988]

Oh! Commenting before I even watch- Love this song and video! 💝🙂✨ Just a friendly FYI- this came out in 1988- not 90’s- 🙂✨

[@craigblakes5499]

Their 40th Anniversary tour starts this week in Columbia, SC. I remember watching this repeatedly on The Box trying to get moves down, and running up my grandparents phone bill lol. This is my second favorite group right behind J5. The success they have had individually and as a group, no one will ever come close to that

[@christarpley6861]

Why oh why can't they make songs like this anymore

[@1011skarn]

RnB is dead, when it comes to groups. Everyone is just solo at best.

[@keithroberts4952]

You should play NE heartbreak next.can't believe if it isn't love is from 1988! A great Jimmy jam and Terry Lewis production.

[@Lyrenaie]

Yes!! Can you stand the rain is the best. I certainly second that notion!!!

[@angiesuarez773]

So 80,s!!! Love it!!!

[@ajruther67]

This is my favorite New Edition song.

[@horacerobinson7149]

This whole album was nice thanks Shawn and Mel.

[@inkoinfinity2]

These guys were some of the pioneers of new Jack swing I think

[@woodchucknation]

New Edition always will be great

[@carolbrown605]

You have to listen to Boys To Men by them.

[@OBSESSEDRAILFAN4444]

All modern boy bands that have had success throughout the 90s and 2000's are all based on new edition. New kids on the block, nsync backstreet boys ,One direction at all the K-pop groups are all patterned after New edition. They are the blueprint for all of those groups.

[@ellisisland1374]

So true!🙂 Legendary group New Edition are true trailblazers!

[@angelacleveland7513]

Hello, I loved all of them growing up. But please check out can you stand the rain and N. E. Heartbreak. You won’t be disappointed.

[@horacerobinson7149]

My favorite song off of this album is I'm Coming Home of course it's a hidden gem and a beautiful ballad.

[@chazbrown5800]

The greatest group ever.

[@mztweety1374]

Saw them live in the 1988❤️❤️❤❤

[@jorgebrahim1565]

Love new edition ..with the great bobby brown

[@kimthompson5313]

My favorite of all time!

[@DeAnne1233]

Can’t stop couch dancing. That old familiar melody calls out to the bones… come on, dance with me. The soul obeys. 😊

[@chrisbarnes6770]

This takes me back to the best of times 💯❤️🤗😌

[@rosemarywatson1231]

Love it. Every time I hear it!

[@TJnHouston]

This video was so iconic that Beyonce had to use the same idea in her video called, Love on Top.

[@eskayh7734]

My BF claims this is the song he was listening to that confirmed how he felt about me lol. "If It Isn't Love" is the lead single from NE's fifth album, Heart Break (1988). The song became the biggest hit from the album, peaking at #7 (their first top 10 hit following Bobby Brown's departure) and hitting #2 on the Hot Black Singles chart. Its chart performance and well-received music video garnered the group their first, and to date, sole nomination for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. The song and video is also notable for being the introduction of Johnny Gill as a new member of NE. Please react to NE - "Can You Stand the Rain" and "Hit Me Off."

[@louisemarvel3369]

Roxbury's own..... Orchard Park and Cathedral Projects. We're so proud... I lived in the Orchard Park projects back in the day

[@davidhoward6254]

When New Edition was in a bit of a slump, they were asked to do a song for the movie 'Dragnet' called 'Helplessly in Love'. That song was written and produced by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. I remember hearing that song and thinking it was a good sound for them...Jimmy and Terry must have thought so, too, because they basically took New Edition to finishing school with the 'Heartbreak' album, a great series of songs/stories about the turbulence of transitioning from Boys to Men (yeah, they took their name from the last song of the album). Do yourselves a favor and go listen to the whole album from start to finish...there are other gems on the album like 'N.E. Heartbreak', 'Can You Stand the Rain', "I'm Coming Home" and "Boys to Men" and you'll have an even better appreciation for the work that was done to turn a group on the cusp of ending to the solo powerhouses of Johnny Gill, Ralph Tresvant, and BBD (Bell, Biv, Devoe)...all based on the success of Heartbreak and the genius of Jam & Lewis!

[@kauntykiki]

I missed this. Such a good song.

[@jessejamessimons483]

Alright my good people.... The electric rhythm of this song will make you move ‼️🔥💯🔥🎼🎶🎹🎸🥁🎤😎👍🏼

[@bigb2494]

This wasn't quite the 90's yet, it was '88. At the time Bobby had been kicked out of the group and they were getting ready for the NE Heartbreak Tour. Ironically Bobby was part of that tour as a solo artist as well as Al B Sure.

[@bqkmg2037]

This is 1988 very 80s of course 1989 being the last year of that magical decade for creative talented real music even 1990 and 1991 still 80s style of music carried over Imo 90s started in late 1993 early 1994.

[@chantellecline6945]

New Edition was my group back in the day. I loved all of their stuff as a kid so hearing it now as an adult definitely brings me memories.

[@erickadanforth4910]

Met them at my bestie and i's 21st birthday llooonnnggg time ago. Bel biv devoe Bobby Brown and Ralph tresvant. This was before cell phones sadly but Ralph was super nice and Bobby was all over an icky white girl. Yes he was married to Whitney then. But what a great memory for a milestone of sorts ❤😂

[@oscarjimenez4806]

I'm NE for life no group like them

[@vanessa4u4evr]

This was definitely a track from their comeback album after being gone for a couple of years.

[@jjames4691]

Memories ….

[@glennramsey9130]

That was a 1988 Song. Johnny Gill first joined back then

[@michaelcoffey1991]

New Edition is my own 2nd favorite "boy band" of all time, and I love everything from what they did as kids, to solo projects by Johnny Gill or Bell Biv or even Ralph solo stuff. (NO not a bobby brown fan) they did so many amazing songs.

[@teneil31]

Bobby Brown started the group in 1978 first album released in 1983 this album was released in 1988

[@otisroseboro5613]

New Edition Is The Best 👍💯

[@nikkikat1325]

Seriously, isn’t anyone watching their feet and the exceptional dance moves???

[@eskayh7734]

I *always* do. Best thing about the video.

[@oscarjimenez4806]

New edition has so many you can react to. Not in any order but Hot tonight Hit me off Is this the end Cool it now Still in love NE heartbreak Can you stand the rain Just for me and you

[@blindbeautyblindgirlmagic3166]

I am loving going down this rabbit hole of this channel💜

[@horacerobinson7149]

They had a 2 year break before they released this album. The album before this one was Under The Blue Moon (1986) where they covered a bunch of doo wpp classics.

[@iricarodriguez4334]

Rebirth of Slick (Cool like dat) by a Digable Planets needs a listen too. A whole vibe.

[@willfromyadkinville]

GREAT R&B ALBUM! baby face was dropping fire back then too!

[@TreyMessiah95]

New edition Started the new wave of "Boy Bands" in the Early 80s, they wore suppose to catch their big break, but their music producer said that they didn't translate to the white audience and they wore replaced with a white boy band called "New kids on the block"

[@Mtc0nqr3r]

Please react to "You're Not My Kinda Girl"

[@kendavis3434]

That song was put out in 1987

[@oscarjimenez4806]

Yes it was from the NE heartbreak. React to these NE songs. Can you stand the rain. Still in love Hot tonight NE heartbreak Candy girl Just for you and me Mr Telephone man Hit me off

I do know that this was after Bobby Brown left the group. That's why you don't see him in the video.

[@adublbeatz8656]

I'm still mad at Johnny Gill...I was suppose to replace Bobby Brown....But naaa they wanted a crooner...LOL... (Not in real life, but in my mind) 😂😂🤣🤣 I knew every move from every video...LO...I was ready...
