In the spirit of a week of cleaning & organizing, who could use a new lawn mower to tidy things up outside? Well, someone’s getting this puppy (valued at $339) thanks to Lawn-Boy. It’s self propelled, easy to start, and features a “Blade Stop” system that allows you to turn off the blades without killing the engine, which comes in handy if you’ve got a lawn frequently peppered with sticks or toys (not that I’m speaking from experience or anything).

- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “OH BOY!” and tell us…

How about the really old school ones (NKOTB, Boys II Men, Menudo)? Or have you rolled your eyes at this whole question?

I used to be obsessed with Jagged Edge. Looking back, I have no idea why. Boyz II Men still have a special place in my heart, though.
Sarah N says
OH BOY! The Backstreet Boys are still my favorite – at 13, my mom took me, a friend, and my twenty-something cousins to see them in Atlanta and it was amazing!
JWat says
One Direction!! But, PLEASE!, do not tell anyone!!! :D
Crystal @ 29 Rue House says
OH BOY! We’re really going old school today between these two posts. :)
Poison’s song by BBD comes to mind since they played it constantly at a fair ride – considering I/we were eight when this song came out I learned only a few lines. I do remember “Poison, pa pa pa Poison, Poison, Poison, Poison, pa pa pa Poison…” Hahaha
Daffodil says
OH BOY!
I was not a boy band fan. But I love R.E.M. and all of the guys in that band used to be boys before they grew up. Does that count?
Lisa says
OH BOY
I’m not kidding, I just dropped my old lawn mower off at the repair shop on Saturday! This would be awesome!
I was a major Boys II Men fan, but NKOTB was plastered all over my walls! LOL!
Elizabeth says
OH BOY! My favorite boy band was N*SYNC!! :)
Keri says
Oh Boy!
I was all about Backstreet, yo. They were phat.

OH BOY! I remember NKOTB as tops, but it was when I saw the Newsboys in concert that I thought “wow”. :)

Oh Boy!!!
I wasn’t huge into boy bands, but what was played most often was Boyz II Men.
tia says
OH BOY!
while i do have quite the soft spot in my heart for nsync, my favorite boy band of all time hands down is new edition.
Kate says
Cleaned my bedroom today, YES! I am the opposite of a neat freak so this *simple* thing takes a lot of motivation. And now I’m further motivated to tackle the third bedroom/dumping grounds…thanks YHL!
Also, let it be known that “I Feel the Earth Move” by Carole King is the best song cleaning song ever.
Melissa says
OH BOY!!!
NSYNC was the best~ :0)
Kellie says
OH BOY!
I was a closet Backstreet Boys fan. Shhhh, don’t tell anyone!
Pam Fisher says
“OH, BOY!’ I am a seventies girl. My favs? Pink Floyd, Yes, James Taylor, Carol King, Chicago (could we call them a boy band)? or how about 3 Dog Night?
Today I love Snow Patrol, Gotye, Passion Fruit to name a few.
Laura M says
OH BOY! My boy band faves evolved with time. First it was NKOTB that ruled the day. But by high school, N’SYNC had taken over as top boy band.
stephie2cool says
“OH BOY!”
Seriously, anyone who doesn’t say either Boyz II Men or NKOTB is just crazy… can you tell I’m a product of the 80’s generation? So I would say the two are split down the middle; while both are boy bands, one provides me with smooth R&B, the other one gives me the pop I enjoy.
Lisa says
OH BOY!
AWESOME Giveaway! Seriously. Ok, I wasn’t really a huge boy band lover, always seemed cheesy to me. BUT – I love me some Salt N Pepper or TLC! LOL!
Melissa says
OH BOY!!!
I was into NSYNC back in those days :) I even saw them in concert 3 times!
Serina says
OH BOY!
hmmm, my six year old daughter seems to like those boys from Big Time Rush… does that count?
Rafael says
OH BOY!
Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers. Really old school!
Molly O says
Oh Boy!
Never liked the boy bands, really. I’m of the rolling-eye camp. Guess I prefer “man-bands”. :)
Kate says
Whoops…meant to post that comment on the previous entry…
Emily Gravitt says
OH BOY! Do the Nelson Brothers count?
Jen says
OH BOY! I love Backstreet Boys. That was my first concert!! Fingers crossed I could really use a new lawn mower!!
Robert Patrizi says
OH BOY! Was and still am rolling my eyes at the boy bands…I just pray my daughter doesn’t start listening in 10 years :)
Becky Johnson says
OH BOY!
My favorite boy band was Backstreet Boys! That was the first concert I went to when I was in fifth grade!
Susie says
OH, BOY! I don’t know if Maroon Five counts as a boy band (the 21st century version?), but that’s what I’d say. I never really got into any of the real boy bands — they’re too manicured/coiffed/produced for my taste.
shellybelly says
OH BOY!!! you forgot about the REALLY OLD bands like the Beach Boy – yeah!!!
Becky says
OH BOY!
N*SYNC all the way :)
Lindsay says
OH BOY!
I love Boyz II Men. I also love The Fray!

OH BOY! Boy band? The BEATLES! (I’m only 30 years old, so I also have fond memories of the Backstreet Boys ;-))
Kali says
OH BOY!
98º baby.

OH BOY!!
No question – NKOTB!
