Babyface - This Is For The Lover In You

[wr513]

THIS THAT CLASSIC FEEL GOOD JOINT RIGHT HERE!!!

[MystroMusicMan]

The Genius known as Babyface, putting his spin on an old Shalamar standard. Classic!

The people who clicked "dislike", hated the performers on this record had actual TALENT & didn't need AutoTune.

[nemox4]

if we want to watch commercials im sure we can type commercial as a keyword in the search bar with no trouble. We dont need any assistance cause we seem to navigate to the videos we are trying to watch with no trouble

[TRILLxNxMOBx4EVA]

NO MORE COMMERCIALS ! 

[angelica34able]

[aldiyne]

[cowboissuck99]

Now, THIS is how you remake a song! These guys did the damn thang!

[shocked88ify]

@cowboissuck99 yeah he brought Jody, Howard and Jeff back now this is real music

[kidcocky75]

[halomo81]

@kidcocky75 WAIT WE HAVE MUSIC THIS CENTURY ......... :/

[junseo80]

My favorite music video ever since it came out in '96. Simply beautiful.

[georgefski]

all the above mentioned hate the 90's due to the absolute talent that was around in that era dead set even the one hit wonders were better then the worlds current top R&B singers! I shit you not when i say i haven't brought an album in years the standard is just not there

[Number41gs]

Damn Right! Yeah, old is new again. That's how it's done. Kids.

[babywebmaster]

Can we say New York again again again and AGAIN?

[westside159]

Howard hewitt made the song dope

[wifey4lifey072007]

[SeasonMuzik3]

Because the future of my music will sound better with you

Please stop by my channel because you can change my life with a simple click.

Thanks of all you!

[bohemia1355]

Howard Hewett is one of the most grossly underrated RnB singers ever....

[leonak30]

This video is too much for me... LL can definitely come and wash my hair... that's how a man makes a lady feel special... babyface is my boo and howard hewitt is so damn fine and can sing his behind off.... Nice collabaration!!!!!

[khender248]

omgshh i feel so old...this is the first time i heard this version...ive only heard shalamars version...i love it though!!!!

[jessymiff]

Love love love this song!

[RockRunner2002]

I love it! Ain't it crazy how a song can bring back memories!

[djbrixo]

...great years for R ´n B....Great Babyface.....Yo Face.....

[ShariC0416]

I would pay big money to have the old school tasteful music back!

[comosuavo]

maluco!

[cw51569]

ANOTHA 1 OF MY JAMS!!!

[BeautyinChaos1]

Stupid Question :Is that Jeffery Daniel dancing with the afro?

[leilaestes]

@BeautyinChaos1

i think it is as well

[BeautyinChaos1]

@leilaestes :-)

[bohemia1355]

@BeautyinChaos1: Yep!

[ghosted760]

Howard H +Babyface just killin' it. And the brother dancing moves like MAXWELL. Plus Jody Whatley on back up... wow.

[TheFREESTYLECENTRAL]

4 OF THE BEST TALENTS MADE A SLOW OLDIE A 90'S JAM!!! "THIS RING MEANS I'LL ALWAYS BE TRUE""" OOOO LOL

[gillzblack]

LOVE THIS SONG!!!!! Doesn't Babyface look a little like Kanye West tho? Lol

[blackpurpleblue]

It's amazing alot of the musicians from the past are still great today. They shouldn't stop making music until they lose there voices. Look at Teddy Pendergrass he lost his legs but he could still sing.

[bossu3konn]

How old is Howard Hewitt? 58? He could still be singing and make our ears feel good, but nowadays if you are not a b ch or a gangsta they don't even let you make an album. How many great artists could still be creating and we cannot hear them because of the damn "star system"?

[kimhayward09]

Oh yeah

[vinylbitchie]

JODY!!!

[thechocolatebee]

lool only LL Cool J would go into the shower with his clothes on...

[SeductiveSinn]

@thechocolatebee And looks sexy as hell still.

[thechocolatebee]

@SeductiveSinn lol ye

[orikara]

THUMBS UP IF U MISS '96!

[1977castaneda]

6 people are not digging this song 1. Drake 2. Ray J 3. Souljay Boy 4. Chris Brown 5. Lil Wayne

They really hate the 90`s....

[MerwinMondesir]

@1977castaneda ... i would take out drake and chris brown off this list!

[MerwinMondesir]

@1977castaneda And Ray j unlees you have proof.

[gigga143]

@MerwinMondesir oh i know, Ray J is always talking about & bumping old music

[halomo81]

@1977castaneda i think T-Pain And the Dream WERE added to this hate list too

[GaryJiangMusic]

@1977castaneda You're being ignorant.. This is the type of music that inspired some of those artists.. music develops over time and those artists just happen to make a certain type of music because it makes money. Plus music changes over time... or else it would be boring

[AlexCute1]

0.44 omg look how ll's dealing wid her hair...mayn u gotta massage!! wtf its like he washing a dog!!!

[justlikeiroc24]

@AlexCute1 and why is he fully dressed in the shower scene...i mean maybe LL always takes showers fully dressed w/ hats on but average people don't lol

[optiphat]

this is what i term soul searching

[deffensh]

Shalamar's is far superior.

[DonBheshan]

Shalamar's OG was better and I ain't no old mufucka either I'm 16 :)

[youngdazz84]

wat a jam......



[battouhgerroh]

Oh my God! This was just a blast! Reminds me of my good college days. A dot com version of the earlier soul version done by Shalamar!

[aleathia83]

Still bumpin this in 2011 

[MHStrece]

I'm just noticing that Shalamar was in the video. It makes sense since their record was sampled here.

[SuperAlias11]

I seriously MISS this kinda music!

[annisaarthur2708]

Music videos were really colourful in the later half of the 90s boy!

[NANCYT76]

BABYFACE.....COME BACK!!!! MAN THIS WAS REAL MUSIC!!!

[alfakilla1]

No question about it, this is one of the top ten greatest of all time song and video!!!!!

[mrsmcglone]

anybody notice Pilar, Deion Sanders wife in here....

[dollymartlew]

God I love this tune

[Sexyrochelle33]

I love some HOWARD HEWITT!!!!!!! as well as BABYFACE and LL what a good combination and great song.

[Tyranous12]

Now that's what I call reaaaal music! No prefabricated crap!

[johnnydje23]

Jody watley,love it

[GrandMasterGuess]

I prefer Shalamar!

[pauliephizzle]

0:42 "I'm talking 'bout makin' love in the shower At least an hour And let you dangle in my arms 'Cause love is power Can you feel it the sky's the limit Once you reveal it Your heart was wounded God sent me to heal it On a mission ain't no stress love Touch you with precision Just undress love I know the right position Come one trust me girl Throw this rock up on your hand I'll give you the world Yo Face On the real Was the honey looking laced"

[randomistaken]

Um... wtf 0:44?

[LalalusciousMacy18]

@randomistaken Lmfao I had the same reaction haha

[spiceyfruit]

@randomistaken thats what i was thinking lol

[gerrardl1984]

dont make them like this anymore.... silky smooth!

[jakoolaction]

what album is this from?

[chrisknuc]

@jakoolaction it's from bayface's "the day" album

[OnyxPhoenix]

Why is LL COOL J wearing a jacket in the shower? And to top it off he's washing the models hair.

[xGOSSIPGIRL95]

love the song, but the video is weird.

[womanmadewhole]

This shit go hard!

[Sugarsheez]

The cousin in the fro is Geoffrey Daniels one of the Original Members of Shalamar.

When they show the shot of the 2 males and 1 female that is they are Shalamar. They have so sweet ass songs, this song and the fact that Baby Face included the original members with them on vocals as well is sweet.

[Shenruss]

Hmm. Instead of throwing all that money away they should have funneled it to the editing and location departments for better venues and effects. And WHOSE cousin was that with the afro that he could just get stick up in the video without any real purpose, 'cause he HAD to be related to SOMEBODY!

Still, one of the nicest "easy-going" Jams of the late 90s. Babyface's smooth & LL's cool. Nice combo

[BERTUZZZZi]

i don't care if you're a mormon fuck offf!!

[ChocolateSmurf2001]

great song, HORRIBLE VIDEO,

[denipetty]

Talk about throw back!!! I haven't thought about this song in years!! Thanks Babyface for all the memories.

[09cadc]

@nina98498...I know right? LOL!

[nina98498]

OMG that scene with LL in the shower washing that girls hair.. first of all.. why the eff is he wearing a jumpsuit in the shower and I know its supposed to be sexy but it looks NASTY the way that wet hair is all soapy and matted LOL. aaah but I still love this song!

[anunnakivisions]

@RBCHILD4EV  right!

[ceida721]

Lawd hav mercy!! Real music at its finest

[blackpurpleblue]

@ceida721 WORD!

[KWNCKNAE]

HOWARD HEWITT IS SO FINE AND BABYFACE IS HANDSOME AS WELL AND WITH BOTH OF THEM SINGIN IT MAKES THIS SONG THE BOMB

[HoneyChild]

I will never forget my dad sent this tape to me for my birthday. I played it over and over and over.....wish we we on speaking terms.

[nikkinew123]

Awesome! Baby Face is the shit~but when Howard started singing, I did get a little excited. lol

[geness30]

my favorite from babyface! the best!

[liacashmere58]

Damn this video is cheap lol. At the time it looked so dope. I still love this song. Jody was always a pretty lady

[63Mafia]

96 was a GREAT year in music!

[QCongress83]

@63Mafia So was '95. 1995 had some great music as well as classic songs and albums.

[johnnydje23]

When Music was Music,Man I'm getting old.lol

[Shalamarman]

I thought Jody was the most attractive lady in the video . Jeffrey has always been a little different . But , any reference to him and drugs is totally inaccurate . Howard looked good too and sang his butt off . What does it matter ; they weren't in the same room at the same time ? Who on the video was ? The most important thing is ; we were entertained . Isn't that the objective ?

[leoladyforever26]

LL Cool J as well babyface love it.

[williest1]

foreal LL was in the shower FULLY CLOTHED washing babygirls hair but u know what? in the 90s that was so flyy!! :-D

[fortunatejimmy]

vevo is crap ur rite

[stilettogroove]

@wakeupanddo Ms. Jody is still doing her thing and very fabulously so. Facebook, Twitter, Google learnit

[Kirwina]

why dont babyface come back and make songs like this anymore?? where is he??

[Rockleelives777]

this video should have way more views

[ValleyGyrlTV]

Awww..why did they get a fake Jeffrey Daniels to do this video?? That's not the real one. It was great to see Jody Whatley and Howard Hewitt though.

[jurseenae]

@ValleyGyrlTV That was him!! Babyface couldn't get them in the studio @ the same time. too much animosity!!! Jeffery Daniels seemed to be in a 70's time warp though!! Coke..it does the body bad! One reason why group split!!!

[leofilm]

@ValleyGyrlTV  that's the real jeffrey daniel.

[ValleyGyrlTV]

@leofilm

Are you sure, because that does NOT look like him at all.

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

@ValleyGyrlTV True but the video should have featured footage of Shalmar sense this was their song originaly

[ValleyGyrlTV]

@MUSICENCYLOPEDIA

Yes..Shalamar is one of my most favorite groups from the late 70's-80's era. That's why I love this song so much..

[canday78]

Classic

[dj79hiflir]

Don't make'em like this anymore. One of my top faves!!

[BPTDresta187]

90's had some serious bass lines.

[MrYorkwilborne]

Love this sexy remix by the man Babyface ok.

[Sakkara1331]

@snoop0851 this one, there's Howard Hewett's solo version on his album, Shalamar's version..(the original)

[Tre404]

@snoop0851.... He dances, he spins, he bangs the cymbals together, and he talks on command! Snoop0851, Tre's Puppet! ....Isn't he great folks? Let's give him a big hand! :-)

[Tre404]

@snoop0851 ...LOL!! Wow... really... that was QUITE intelligent! But exactly what we all expect from the likes of you. What other ingenious phrases do you have for us this fine morning, Slingblade...?

[Tre404]

@snoop0851 WHATT???!! ....Akon and T-Pain don't even come CLOSE to this!! You smokin the same thing they smokin, for real!!

[Tre404]

@TheRandomvidz4u ....seriously! Who IS she??

[mr2damngood73]

To everyone that has questions about Shalamar watch there Unsung on TVOne it will open your eyes to everything you want to know about them

[Dresknowsbest]

@wakeupanddo

I do believe she is now on a Broadway play. She definitely had some bangers.

[Sakkara1331]

Babyface is the producer he wanted to remake a classic, I like it..I like the original too, but this is sexy and catchy

[spreadlovee]

lmaoo everytime i see him washing her hair i just die laughin

[MonsterEntertainer]

this is the jam

[kevinpaley]

i thought this being a hit would put the group together but jealousy and egos will always keep them apart.i am a fan of jody's and howard's so im not taking sides and jeff invented the moonwalk but mj made it international the old soul train tapes dont lie jeff did it a year b4 mj god rest his soul we love you 4ever performed on motown 25.Watch their rise and fall on TVONE's UNSUNG series.

[tengordon1942]

wow that a gr8 song an video , LL WAS SO COOL jody awesome ,an face man to much

[chuck57don]

I found this by accident ( some accident) it was great ahhhhh do I miss da 90's music.............great music back then..

[mryoung2u]

I really like this version but can someone tell me why LL is in this? Did we really need his 16 bars? And not an LL hater at all. I dig his work but just trying to see if he was needed? Let Face and Shalamar do their thing.

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

@mryoung2u Plus they should have had more shots of the group Jody should have been the leading lady in the video

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

@mryoung2u If I would have directed the video I would have all of them get equal time on video and I would have them together as well as have females dancing with Howard and Jeffrey and a male dancing with Jody. Being this is a Shalamar classic the group should have had more air time. That would have been more respectful for Jody Jeffrey and Howard

[mryoung2u]

@MUSICENCYLOPEDIA Those ideas would have been good! Respect to LL but this is a Shalamar song. I also think they had them in at different times because though they were a great group, there were some bad feelings between the three. That's why there hasn't been a Shalamar reunion tour. Not unless I have missed something...

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

@mryoung2u Thanks Alot of people on the same page as the situation with LL.

[Tre404]

@MUSICENCYLOPEDIA ...bear in mind that LL was a much bigger star back then, and his appearance on this single THEN was considered to be "the shit!" I thought so too! It was slammin.... but in 2010, people look back and still like the musical performance of the other artists on the track, but don't care as much for LL's contribution. I think that kinda sucks, because everyone was cool with it back then!

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

@Tre404 I have love for LL as an artist, but the video should have showed all five of them equally.

[Tre404]

@MUSICENCYLOPEDIA ...yeah, the three original members absolutely refuse to even be in the same room together! It's sad but true. So what 'Face did here, by even getting them to AGREE to re-do the song in the studio (separately, of course) was monumental! So count your Shalamar blessings, man... this is one rare occasion that you will never see again, according to Jody, Howard and Jeffrey. And KUDOS to 'Face for pulling this off so smoothly!

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

@Tre404 I remember hearing something about that. In fact Jody's gonna speak about it on her Unfiltered special in a few weeks. There's also a clip of them performing this with Face live,

[Tre404]

@MUSICENCYLOPEDIA ...awesome, thanks for the heads up!

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

@Tre404 Jody just posted part 7 of her version of Unsung called unfiiltered and she speaks about the reunion

[Tre404]

@mryoung2u ...there are versions without LL on the 12" single and CD5 configurations. Don't panic!

[ask3491]

Babyface, LL Cool J, and the "classic lineup" that is Shalamar, what a collaboration. They took an already popular Shalamar song and made it better. It's sad they're not together anymore, I would've loved to see them in concert

[nlvgirl]

Tracy left him for Eddie Murphy....what a fool she is......

[MrCovering]

Right around the time this video aired Howard Hewett would get on the radio and bash Jody Watley during his interviews. And all he did was ruin any chance he had for Jody to get together with him for a reunion tour. Nobody wants to work with a mean person, And by Howard being the lead singer he would have made all the money again just like the first time.

[BSACAPITAL]

Any Questions?

[reeleast]

Legendary "SMOOTH ERA" collabo here. L.L.,Babyface,and Shalamar. C'mon ya'll you can't loose here.

[trickywillet]

Ya'll killed this...

[glammedout]

Lady in Red ... Yup that's me ... lol .. Ciao

[kwillog360]

This track had 4 LEGENDS of the game, Face, Jody, L.L., and Mr. Howard!!...A true CLASSIC!!

[Cwolf1984]

Dis waz My SHeeeeeeeit!!!!

[Stablemable2]

This is why videos are made.

[nystar1881]

Jody Watley...love this

[denverpeach99]

I hate vevo!!

[Tre404]

@denverpeach99 ....I'mjussayin.... it works GREAT on my computer... videos are always crisp and completely sharp, and the music in total stereo. Only thing I don't like is that so many of them are not embeddable.... can't post them to Facebook and view them there... you gotta click an external link. Other than that, I love me some VEVO!

[agl418]

What is with this crappy VEVO stuff? It downloads the videos slower and you can't stop it anymore while it's downloading so that you can watch it nonstop all the way through. Crap.

[Tre404]

@agl418 ...have never had a problem with Vevo! They download really smoothly, and I can definitely pause, or do whatever I want... In fact, I love when the vids are thru Vevo because I know they're gonna be a high quality file. Not someone's old VHS mono recording that's been played in a cheap VCR a million times and completely destroyed because of it, and then uploaded here at tiny bandwidth! Shit, VEVO rocks!

[queenoftigerny]

@agl418 Press F5.

[loveybear15]

who is that lightskin brotha

[L0ungin1000]

@loveybear15 -that's tha one and only HOWARD HEWITT! from Shalamar fame..lol

[realdanimusiq]

love this

good collabo

[SEATO12]
