I love the top 5 all my faves. I probably would have change the ranking but the groups in it are correct.

If The Jackson 5 aren't number 1 I have NO interest in that list.

Honestly they should be at the top. ...They didn't call them a boyband back then though. But when most do think of the groups that were looked at as boybands this list is pretty accurate.

They gave like.. a very half-ass one on Boys II Men lol

Imo and this is only mine.. those guys. Are the only boy band on the list that had above average voices, all the other bands to me have just average sounding voices... but Boys II Men could sang! and if i am not mistaken they where commercially the most successful right? even more so then Backstret Boys. So why the little 2 minutes on them but a huge segment on One Direction lol

Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

Just be glad they were in the Top 5.

WHAT THE FUCK!? eek

NO JACKSON 5??? LITTLE MICHAEL???

INVALID LIST..

Jackson 5 should ALWAYS make it number one on these lists being they were the first commercial adolescent/child boy band. I dont have time for this corporate bullshit.. Backstreet Boys, Nsync, BELOW Boys II Men eek What is E smoking? nuts

Well, I considered BIIM, NE and NKOTB boybands. As far as the J5 goes, they already got their props for paving the way for all those groups and the other boybands. My beef is boybands like The Wanted and One Direction don't dance and that's what's gonna kill their careers in the long run, cause if you don't have a stage presence, you're not gonna last.

None of them look like boys in these pics....surely the Stones and Beatles qualified, as well as the original "Boy" manufactured band .......The Monkees!

The Stones were too Rock N Roll to be considered a boyband.

The reason why the J5 aren't on this list is because they've already gotten their recognition for what they've done in the industry. Now, New Edition is finally getting their long overdue recognition as well. As mentioned before today, NE will be recieving the Soul Train Lifetime Achievement Award.
