[Ajtori93]

These chics are the sh-t!!!! They go hard!!!!

[kevikev1908]

They sound like a fucking choir! This is when people actually sounded like their records.

[writerzblock00]

It's all about the voices when you can sing. No music necessary but if you want a beat look up the other version.

[ralphyjay]

I DARE Rihanna to release an acapella single. Triple dog dare.

[SistahRoro]

THIS is REAL R&B!!!!

[tashshawna]

[ralphyjay]

Hmmm...Kayla Brianna re-did this

[jroman0003]

These are real singers girls and boys!!! Pure talent that you don't hear anymore. The artists that are out now couldn't sing there way out of a paper bag...beyonce..rihana..

[Tupacexpert1]

RIP to the fuckin 90's BITCH

[Paraphraze615]

this is one of the most unique music videos i've ever seen simply because it's acapella. and to think i was only 4 years old when this came out...

[herve1348]

yeah i just heard Kenny Smith's daughter's song

[dienglee]

The sista with the short hair is so expressive with her gestures....what style and coolness : ) DAMN I love my sistas!

[dienglee]

I remember when this song dropped...My lady and I were like, "WOW!" What incredible talent folks. With all the bad things, complaints, and bullshit going on in the world today....this is certainly a bright spot. What a breath of fresh air....what talent! Please just enjoy this....

[gsxrboyz33]

Classic Real Fine Ladies! Where has it gone!!!!!!

[NnekaNoodle]

First time hearing them and i gotta say... I'm a fan now =)

[gloco620]

Now this is what you call SANGING....No autotune, no computer generated crap, just pure vocal ability...Love it! And they're not showing their asses either, just pure talent....

[xyd]

Thumbs up if you still appreciate this in 2012!!!

[Damadehierro89]

See? Real singing with no autotune bullshit! They dont have to be half naked in the video, their voices speak for itself!

[rocquesbiz]

That is a great sound! Reminds me of hanging around with my friends and just singing, back in the day. Fun stuff.

[whitespiritbear]

Please bring back the 90's when R&B music was real soulful and meaningful.

[smithmarcus91]

DAMN dis song is cool with or without a beat

[SheisLovely31]

That is something for REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!! They debuted my sophomore year in high school 1995. REAL.

[DaddySweet100]

The definition of vocal harmony and balance is called "Brownstone".

[badgyrlx]

love this song- the words are so true-

[2FINLEYFUL4U]

yes no instruments or nothing in they still got it packed! i just luv them!

[jadenwoods11]

[Braktooth]

The start to this song is soooo hot. Great, great singing.

[supawoman2289]

[superTy91]

I was borin in 91 and i remember being a lil kid and hearing this song on the radio, and i was 3 and i remember hearing this song

[ljvwright]

I'm not joking it took till about 1 minute into the song till I realised they were singing acapella, and the bass was in my head lol

[nochokin]

I love how even accappella ...this still is a great song

[MsSouthernbell1]

THOSE WAS MY GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[DreDae2011]

I'm So Deeply Sad Inside Because Were Did The REAL R&B Go It Went Missin And No One Can't Seem To Find It OMG Just Like What Tyler Perry Said."Let All These New Artist's Go Take A Break And Let The Artist's That Made R&B Sound O-So Good Come back And Do 1 More Album"But I Prefer More Than 1But I Give Credit To The Artist's In The Game Now That Is Still Keeping R&B Alive. Mary J. Blige,Mariah Carey,Jennifer Hudson,Kem.But If Mi Favorite Singers Was Alive Luther Vandross.Mi Lord.Sit Bac Nd Relex..

[kpflo123]

I was listening to this song when my neighbor walked by. He's presently in the current Hughes Corporation. (Don't Rock the Boat Baby!) Well, he loved it and said, "thanks for turning me on to this!"

[sugarfreechocolate1]

Such tight and beautiful harmonies. I like to sing along and think I'm in there doing something too - LOL.

[AlmostWithYou94]

Living Out Loud.

[Musiqluver911]

loooovvveee their song, an they are truly beautiful black women.

[jakeyboi213]

Theres a reason most singers dont sing acapella like these girls do nowadays. Because they cant. and it will expose for the crap they really are.

[workinghoustonian]

@jakeyboi213 agreed 100%

[bnibouayasht]

The fact that there is no music says it all! Love them...

[kokujin8]

purely cause i was waitin for the music and beats to kick in

11/10...

sorry that's as high as i'm willin to go

[MsJacquellable]

i waz born when dis song came out...n nw my favorite song 

[TheBrooklynUSA]

For the people who might not know what these three ladies are doing in this video it is called singing. For real.

[cantthinkof123]

@TheBrooklynUSA these girls knock tha shit out of 99 percent of all girl groups nowadays!

[TheBrooklynUSA]

YOU DAMN RIGHT. THEY HAVE EVERYTHING THAT ALOT OF FEMALE SINGERS DON'T HAVE TODAY, TALENT!

[iamJenny85]

@TheBrooklynUSA lmao. so true.

[MsMerising]

@TheBrooklynUSA

You know? The 90's had many great groups and songs but as far as vocal strength & harmony are concerned, Brownstone and En Vogue still reign supreme <3

[TheBrooklynUSA]

WORD.

[kfndrsn]

@MsMerising Have you heard "Don't Know Nothin'" by 4Real? They have some pretty incredible harmonies

[CrazyMusicDivaNZ]

@kfndrsn LOOOVE that song! gonna go look for it now! (sorry you werent messaging me but I love it!)

[kboogie827]

@TheBrooklynUSA LET THE CURCH SAY "AMEN".

[danette724]

@TheBrooklynUSA you can say that again...

[ElevenDazeTV]

i love this song soooo much

[GooGoo32]

one of the best r&b groups ever. this song will remain of of my favorites for ever.

[djdoc70]

great group....great song..its too bad they didn't last....

[11940ful]

OMG i wanna cry!

[SnakemanisJeff]

All props go to Jesus.

[TheScorpio4lyfe]

OH GOD! I loved this song back in the day when I was a kid. Their voices gave me chills hearing them sing. Back in the 90s it was all abt talent not neccessarily your looks so if you were cute and had the voice or could rap, that was just an extra bonus. I miss the 90s man, I miss our styles, music tv/movies.these kids today are not trendsetters but we sure were. :)

[tamarabrown59]

the girl with the short cut was on the episode of martin lol,but none the less i love this song,ain't nothing like some classic r&b

[90iojknm90]

i luv this song but i really started to fall in love witrh it even more wen i heard 4shore sing it

[PhillyChickNaomi]

The echo (electronic recording) in this song sounds artificial. Takes away from the vocals. Maybe during the period of time it was recorded that type of sound was contemporary and fresh. It sounds robotic to me.

[90iojknm90]

@PhillyChickNaomi u must be 12

[PhillyChickNaomi]

@90iojknm90 - add about 30 years to that number...;)

[90iojknm90]

@PhillyChickNaomi hell no u cant be tht old a say what u said. well it may sound robotic to you but tht was real music they could really sing, unlike people today everything is auto tuned

[PhillyChickNaomi]

@90iojknm90 - Brownstone is a wonderful group. I was referrring to this particular recording. The echo is annoying to me. Sounds like the product of the recording software used on Mac computers. One of the lead singers (Nicci Gilbert) is a true talent. She was sensational in one of Tyler Perry's earlier plays - she's a strong singer.

[SpankRamen2]

Why does the recording industry have to fuck things up so badly that harmonies, like these, can't be heard on the radio anymore?

[gisfinest01]

Very underrated group. They could sing for real, not just in a studio

[selinapattipeilohy23]

okay!

[TheNjTurnpike]

Damm my sophmore year in high school...I remember all the chicks was singing this at the sporting events, classic.

[ksha]

sangin

[bossman55ify]

beautiful BLACK females

[3YECANDY08]

DESE CH!cks Can blow, onE of My FAv 90's Groups Of all T!m3

[MsMareParker]

This is real singing!!! What female group today can blow like this???....Go ahead I'll give you some time to think.........................­..............................­......Exactly what I thought you still couldn't come up with any suggestions...HAHAHAHA!

All in all pure raw unadulterated talent.

[nexxt74]

MJ's group! RIP!

[richyrich909]

why doesn't the girl with the straight hair have any solos? lol is she just there for harmony reasons? o_O

[PhillyChickNaomi]

@richyrich909 - I may be wrong, but I believe her part in the group was one that was continuously changed. Nicci (short hair) and the sister with the braids were original members, if I'm not mistaken.

[anjelheaven]

@richyrich909 She sang the bridge in "Grapevyne".

[411moneybag]

Great talent I still play this cd all the time.

[ghettovolcom]

Thumbs up if 4shore brought you here and you think Paula is an idiot for not bringing them through

[wmakylah]

this is my mommas song

[MsDonnell09]

omfreakin gosh...i luv this song...their aint no talent like this nemore...sad...

[Josafina87]

If you dislike this. Then you are a dumbass! END OF STORY!!

[chelsealjones]

i like the "oh i.." part

[2sweet63]

if u love me

[Purplebandit79]

The vocals are beautiful, but WHERE IS THE BEAT??

[RANDOPAUL]

@Purplebandit79  It's sung Acapella. Y'know...only voices!

[Purplebandit79]

@RANDOPAUL No REALLY? Thank you for taking the time out to send such secret and valuable information. The world is a better place.!

[RANDOPAUL]

@Purplebandit79 Sorry, just trying to be helpful in case you weren't being sarcastic & possibly did not know!

[Purplebandit79]

@RANDOPAUL Just saw this message. thanks for reaching out..I apologize as well for purely reacting. sometimes it's difficult to detect a person's intentions through text. It's all good. No hard feelings. :-)

[RANDOPAUL]

@Purplebandit79 It's O.K. ;)

[BellaElsman]

@Purplebandit79 : Well, when I read your comment, I knew you meant "where is the beat" as this is a music video and it is rare for them to be done acapella. However, I honestly don't believe the person who responded to your comment was trying to be insulting or degrade you in any way; I've seen the same question asked many of times from people who generally don't know what acapella is.

[Purplebandit79]

@BellaElsman Thank you for pointing that out. Totally makes sense. :-)

[aprilstephie]

MICHEAL JACKSON SAW THE POWERFUL VOICES OF THESE LADIES IT IS AN CRIME THAT THEY DIDNT LAST THER HARMONY IS AWESOME!!LISTEN, LEARN AND ENJOY TO TAKE YOU TO A PLACE WHERE YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES AND SAY YES!!!!!

[farlepen]

[TheLizziebow]

[RapStarsz]
