[MissBreeze32]

[BBSatin13]

stlunatik806, 28 people don't even know where to begin so they can love someone down!!! A word to those that dislike this song. Why listen to it, if you can't relate to it???

[Lonnie514]

I remember before Ready for the World became popular Melvin Riley was my teacher at day camp. He would play his music for us.  All us girls was crazy about him. He was like a dk, skinned Michael Jackson. Miss those days, Melvin Riley and Jimmy Vance.

[delbert4541]

I am from back in the days. I have the album (On vinyl) and I take it out when I want to relax and chill with my lady, it makes the evening go soooo smoothly. Its a timeless classic.

Wonder,where are they all now. anyone knows?

[riffjiff]

This was/is a great tune, done with real soul!! One of their Best If not the Best Tune they had!!

[luciouschin]

the person that says the female version is better is an idiot this is the original this is the best..this is the shit!!

[luciouschin]

this is the shit..am not going to lie i wish i was from back in the days these songs give me chills even though am just 15 going to 16 and have never found true love even though i've been in many relationships it gives me unexplainable emotions for the "one" that i haven't even met and an idea what is the word love.....these 90's music is the best thumbs up i wish i was from back then it shows that the guys back then were gentle men and knew how to treat women unlike some of these now a guys

[luciouschin]

the person that say the female version is an idiot the male one is the original and the best

[izmo]

wow inoj's version really has a lot to add

[TheRachelwifey]

[MrDman817]

str8 classic

[mysticalisme]

i remember the first time i heard this song on the radio when it first came out...i was sitting on the steps jamming to the radio...never forget it because i loved this song so much.

[dwquanna]

Music would never have been alive if it wasn't for a song like this. Bring it back.

[shesobreezy]

Thank god I was able to witness nineties music

[stlunatik806]

27 people must have never got to love anybody down..

[BoMbAssMe]

@Cjoliee Samee

[Peachie32able]

[StreetSpeed10]

This is a great love song. I like the remake INOJ did. IMO I thought she did a great job and did the song justice.

[MrEdafc]

LOVE PLAYIN THE CLASSICS FOR MY BOOS XX

[LilMizTyler]

Oh my... (fans herself)

[gentleall]

The guitar solo takes this classic R&B cut to another level (Where is the longer version tho hitman101?). Even Prince gotta be jealous of it.

[Foreverbutters]

WHO IS THE 27 ass rocks that didnt like this song??? Are u serious this song doesnt get enough props. If you dont like the Lyrics listen to the melody, if you dont like the melody listen to the lyrics. THERE IS NO WAY U CAN BE HOLDING A FEMALE, looking in her eyes, during this song and not NOT get at least a KISS

[catchiestwriter]

this 1 got more soul in it but i like the girl version better

[atrienneyates78]

I REALLY MISS GOOD LOVE SONGS....THEY DON'T MAKE THEM ANYMORE.

[cadebowale010]

so did INOJ just remake the song :/

[Holliwood107]

@cadebowale010 yes she did remake the sonq. This one came out first and years Later INOJ remade the female version.

[txgirlrider73]

Wow.....I closed my eyes and I'm in the 8th grade again!!!

[policeman0187]

[kingsnbabylon]

Definitely easier to get women with songs like this: my cuzn used to have a gang of girls at 13. I was just 11. But he played this song a lot becuz of them. Smart azz nigg.

[lovely504girl]

I love being a 90's baby

[LINY65]

WOW, I was in my late teens or early twenties when this song was released. Now, I am the "cougar" he's singing to...

[TheDivadoll38]

This song reminds me of my baby Cory. I love u baby! the time we had a snowball fight the first time it snowed hard in Mississippi that was real love. Just trust your heart

[JUSTSANG71]

Wow............I am getting old. This was the jam!!!!!!!! Why did this music die out? It was so authentic. Black music is just not the same anymore.

[beowulven]

@JUSTSANG71

Black music, white music... it was ALL better in the 80's.

[lilgregsip]

@JUSTSANG71 you can say that a gain!!

[LiloPlease]

@JUSTSANG71 i dont think it died, i think its sleeping. and im pretty sure its gonna wake up soon!

[TheJacquelyne1]

@JUSTSANG71 what is "black music"??? no such thing

[CastingStonez]

@JUSTSANG71

Im not black... Im Big Whiteboy BIRD from Compton... Yes we are getting old... Back then we "believed in LOVE..." Kids nowadays are to hung up on their Ipod, Wii, and texting...

We were outside the house being active and when we got thirsty? we drank water from the neighbors garden hose...simple things... ya know?

LOVE was a way of life... Whether you were a nerd, athlete, or gangsta...

[tonya3james]

@CastingStonez brings back memories



[misserica3434]

@CastingStonez u couldnt have said it betta!!!

[EdgarGA21]

[Chikamagalur]

@CastingStonez I've never replied to a Youtube comment before. You made me read your comment three times, so moving.

[CastingStonez]

@Chikamagalur

Amen... Love...

Its the Greatest of ALL...

[sansaviera]

@CastingStonez

LOL I remember drinking water from the hose! LOL Life was so much better then.

[CastingStonez]

@sansaviera

Yes... they were... So much simpler... even though we didnt have money, we had enough!!!

I have Air Conditioning now... Back then, there was a BOX fan set in between the front door and the wall... I now have AC in my car... Back then, it was called "roll your window down or open the wind wing in the VW bug..." I now pay a guy to mow my lawn... Back then, "I was the gardener..." Now I go to the gym to workout... Back then, working out was NOT an extra curricular activity... LOL...

[kumwitit]

@CastingStonez WORD!!!!!!!!!!!! MY NIG!!!!!!! I'M PUERTO RICAN, AND THAT IS SOOOO FUKIN TRUE. AND HEY MY BRO, WE ARE ONLY ONLY OLD WHEN THEY ARE WIPING ARE ASSES, RIGHT NOW! WE ARE JUST BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CastingStonez]

[FireitupBedford]

Thumbs up for Old School Rick James, Ready For The World, Zapp and Roger, The Time who by the way are now called (The Original 7even) who has a new album and video out. Midnight Star, Atlantic Starr, The Mary Jane Girls, Teena Marie and the list goes on and on...

[CastingStonez]

@FireitupBedford

AMEN brother... ALL those groups and singers are locked up in my heart & soul...
