In the hilarious video, the band, which consists of members Donnie Wahlberg, Jonathon Knight, Jordan Knight, Joey McIntyre and Danny Wood along with their tour mates change from mullets to rocker makeup to accomplish the recreation and romanticize music in the '80s.

"Bring back the time/The heartache never changes/And inside, we're still the same kids we were back in '89," they sing together in the nostalgic anthem.

The band's Mixtape Tour is a 50-date arena tour that is set to kick off in May through July.

The band announced their tour in October and followed with a nostalgic reel, where all of the band members proved they were "in."

"We had a blast out on the first MixTape Tour in 2019, and can't wait to take it to another level with our fans on the MixTape Tour 2022," Wahlberg, 52, said in a press release announcing the tour. "Just like a mixtape, these shows are going to take audiences through all the emotions."

Wahlberg added, "To be able to have Salt-N-Pepa come back and now also have the iconic and legendary Rick Astley & En Vogue join the tour… we could not be more excited. Let's GO!"

Meanwhile, in November, the band performed at the 2021 American Music Awards for a "Battle of Boston" alongside New Edition, marking the first time the two iconic groups performed together.
