[@mephostopheles3752]

Right? As much as I love Main Street, I’ve heard them sing Britney and N’SYNC more than enough times. The concept would still be great if they did a few new songs in that arrangement. The Newfangled Four always manage to add something new, and that’s IF they bring back an old song.

[@hominid3528]

@@mephostopheles3752 I think part of what makes them unique in a way is that if they do the same song they in some way call back to a different song (banana phone) or how Jackson had been working on his high notes all year. Also it's a bit insane to me that they can be as animated with the physical jokes while singing and stay in rhythm and volume.

[@DawnDavidson]

@@hominid3528what blows me away is how they can do all that choreo and side conversation and be not singing for, like, 30-60 seconds, and then just come back in perfectly in tune and in sync. These guys are AMAZING.

[@codenameu.arctos3747]

That last chord was heavenly. My conspiracy theory is that NF4 hams it up because if they played it straight, there wouldn't be any reason for a competition. It'd just be, NF4 is here, give them the gold.

Joey's unenthusiastic jazz hands at 2:14 8. Joey's pose on "Thick" 9. Their poses at "Martial arts like Jackson" 10. "Well there's no one as easy to bolster as you" 11. Jake's hand thing and pure glee on "Another montage" 12. The banana 13. "I'd like to buy a vowel" 14. "Such a bae like Jackson, yes queen slay like Jackson"
