  • this is brilliant i love the lyrics you have a gift from god. love this version more than original

  • As a man and a son of an unsatisfied mother, this song is one of those songs I cherish from the bottom of my heart because it speaks my frustration in lyrical and melodic form. Shawn Stockman is too underrated.

  • "Now, ain't that some shit." lol. Definitely got my attention with that line.. Lol

  • @torieharris96 and he did it so smoothly that even the holiest of thous would have to give him props. he did it with such class. you don't find that these days in "music".

  • da tbeyonce never does wich isnt realy gud im a woman bt i cnt possibly imagin wat it means 2 be a man. No ooffence to beyonce bt she doesnt really knw wat it means 2 be a man, i blve in equality so if u re singin a song lt it be 4 everyone not jus women, i gt d facts dat she is empowering woman bt i gt my emperment 4rm my mother nt beyonce coz at d end of d day beyonce mkz her money 4rm us. i dnt ned 2 lok up 2 beyonce wen 1 ave my mother dt is an incrdilbe women nd inspires each day 2 be grt.

  • Shawn, you have pitch problems!

    

  • @snapdoc please by all means lets hear your song

  • What happened to these kind of singers? Now we have that dumb hip hop shit. Like, really?

  • I' see all the imperfections, I see all the flaws WHEN THAT MAKE UP COMES OFF........ that line is sooo smooth ,and so true! Shawn is such an underated artist!!!!

  • Boyz II Men Curse? They are now evil and no longer good role models LOL JP

  • THAT IS THE TRUTH LADIES STOP BEING SO HARD ON YOU MAN MY HUSBAND DOES THE BEST THAT HE CAN AND I LOVE HIM FOR THAT.

  • he is the cutiest out of boyz to men

  • I love Shawn Stockman new song called "If U Were A Boy" I love the song. and I love the sound.

  • LUV IT SHAWN.. 

  • The lyrics are extremely strong. I even like the edgy profanity in it, but it will take some time for that rock/rocky twang to grow on me. Overall, it is still an emotional piece.

  • he is AMAZING<3

  • Shawn is really nice to his fans.. I love him!!!

  • I just saw Boyz II Men last month... for the 3rd time! Those Men can sure put on a fantastic show! Wanya is the best! Shawn is so personable and has such stage presence as their "spokesman"...

  • where can i get this song? please someone tell me!

  • Shawn!!! You betta sang brotha!!! That voice is smooth like butter!!! (chills)

  • Shawn is the real deal

  • beautiful. I actually like this version better.

  • I like the lyrics and the musical change. Finally a Man's song sort of. It deals with real issues not just sex or cheating. Songs like this should written all the time but instead we have all these little boys in grown up's bodies singing about childish mess. Women talk about their problems but real men don't get that chance! 98% of both America's Adult males are mentally & morally children. The cussing messed the song up for me because a REAL man doesn't need to cuss to communicate.

  • I like the fact that it's from the perspective of a man, a real man. I can now see it from both sides. BTW, I saw Boyz II Men perform last night in NYC and they were amazing.  They're so talented, humble and classy.

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE

  • WOW, YOU'VE BEEN SET BACK TO YOUR WHACK PLACE.......mRS. cARTER.

  • I love this version so much better. Sorry BEyonce Shawn got this one

  • this my new song i like thanks shawn

  • the letter who hass?

  • no se porque os gusta tanto, la version de Beyonce es muchissimo mejor con mucha diferencia, en esta version parece que las frases entran a presion , nada rima y nada queda bien, y en las mejores partes, en vez de subir, baja su voz (casi inexistente por cierto).Beyonce better!!!!

  • @undala I know why you didn't speak english is because whatever point you said about Beyonces SEXIST ASS being better was so utterly retared you didn't want anyone to see it.

  • @6greenduck mira chavalote, si hablo español, es porque soy español ok?, y si quiero decir que Beyonce es Better en ingles lo hago y punto.Solo doy mi opinion, y si no la entiendes, ignorala, pero no te pongas asi, porque yo no te pido que me respondas en mi idioma.Adios

  • @6greenduck beyonce shows sexist traits, its not a "retarded" claim, she never makes songs about equality, only about women being disenfranchised. It would be nice to here a song for equal and mutual respect and standing from her, not poor women or asshole guys.

  • Did u hear this one? Boyz ii men:Grandfathers clock. search 4 it. dont think its very public at all

  • i can't find the song anywhere.i want to hear

  • @BrendaLParson love nathan morris better though

    but shawn is alsome

  • it's SHAWN STOCKMAN, hello! I don't think you will have the likes of ne-yo or chris brown or the other r&b artists out there had it not been inspired by BOYZIIMEN!

  • SO TRUE!!!!!!!

  • he has a great voice ^^

  • i just love this song....good job

  • how bout you were actually the 24th person who came up with thatscreen name. if YOU were the first person, you'd a been smart and just been straight up nateshawnwanya. lol. either way, not creative at all hahaha

  • BEAUTIFUL. xxxxxxx

  • sorry that i dont know what you are talking about. my screenname has also been my email address for years now. and i didnt even notice YOUR name until you mentioned it. who cares anyway.

  • It has been mine also .... It is my email address too .... and if u look at how long u have been a member on youtuibe with that name and how long i have ..... you will see that I have been around with that account loooong b4 u probably even considered making a youtube account buddy .... BE FUCKING ORIGINAL AND DONT TAKE OTHER PPL'S CREATIVE SHIT.

  • i didnt really do that much "research" before i made my email address used it to open youtube account. im pretty new to youtube and didnt "check" if anyone else had the same before I posted. Wouldnt think it was all that important. Still dont. And I wouldnt exactly call the name "creative!" Pretty funny you use that term. Wouldnt call using a celebrity's name CREATIVE. Obviously doesnt take much to piss you off. Feel sorry for you having a tempermant like that. Must be hard to get along with.

  • children,children,cmon,=0),who gives a shit,nathanshawnwanya,good response,very grown up,rare thing on here as you may have just found out =0),...so why dont everybody stick to commenting to the clip/videos,...x

  • i still say that you're the "24th creative person with that name" what about NateShawnWanya1's through 23"????? lol you are a bunch of losers. Boyz II Men still rock! now shut up already

  • as if it matters ?!?!,why am i even bothering to comment on it ?!?!,grow up y,all ?!?!,=0)x

  • Please call your local radio stations and request this song be played. Lets give it some air time! Im going to a B2M concert in May and gonna try and do a shout-out request (or hold up a sign) "Shawn, If U Were a Boy!" Kudos Shawn!

  • get'em

  • I don't understand. what is the point?

  • nice....smooth

  • you are beautiful inside as you are on the outside

  • Check my Beat on my Side!

  • Awesome!

  • man, shawn u so smooth it's sick! i knew that when i heard u riffin on "your love" way back in 91'! u killed it again on jezebel also! may GOD continue 2 bless u, nate and wanya daily! im a man so i feel ya on the lyrics! Shalom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yo word to big bird boyz 2 men hit it on the head once again

  • AWESOME LOL

  • i think this song is great and i am a girl. i also think that beyonces is just as good. these songs can goto both sexes because both gender are gulity of this sometime, what every the reason maybe ther r good men out there and there are still great women out there as well so if we all would just listen and respect each other and be able to speak freely with our partners. relationships would last much longer.

  • click my name and hear "If I was a girl" or click the Nasty feet in the video response section. ITS FUNNY!!!!

  • lmao!!!!

  • Love these kind of tracks, where shawn is the only one singing.. he's good ^ ^

  • make a new solo album my brother

    allah u ekber

  • This song is so great! I loved Beyonce's version but now I hear this one and I'm so excited Shawn came out with it! I need to hear this on the radio already! :-)

  • what I love the most is how, in a respecful way, he shows men's point of view. we are so alike, yet so different in how we express our feelings. Love it love it love it!

  • WHY do we have to respond RESPECTFUL?!? THEY dont! Click my name and HEAR Bust the windows out your car and If I was a girl... comedy responses to these stupid women

  • love it! amazing voice :)

  • hey shawn i went to myspace but i couldnt download it where can i download it at

  • where the html codes ?

  • This song is just money. It's such a good opposite to Beyonce's original. Good work.

  • Wow Shawn. 8000 views. This is HUGE. I'm on here all the time, but I can't take all the credit. LOL

  • Ahhh...This is so touching.

  • LOVE IT! This is hot!!

  • i like thisss yoo

    its pretty deepp styll

  • it crazy

  • Great job, Shawn. I loved the lyrics, and of course, your singing is beautiful.

  • nice i like those replies, like neyo's take a bow

  • p.s. Is it just me or did Shawns biceps look exceptionally swollen and lovely in this last clip? (lol)

  • Mr. Shawn Stockman (aka Chocolate Thunder) is a man not afraid to show vulnerability, and I love it.

    I think the release of this song was brilliant considering Change is fueling our nation right now. Maybe severed relationships will heal because one man, namely Mr. Stockman encouraged men to show raw emotion.

    I hope this song opens a dialogue between males and females that transcends the physical.

  • Wow! Very well spoken! I completely agree! Maybe when that transcends the physical ... people will communicate freely .. and relationships will last. It's all about giving and communication. Putting that other person first! Not all men hide their feeling and emotion.

  • Thank you.....(lol)

    I think women would be wise to NOT just "HEAR" the lyrics in this song but "LISTEN"...This song came from Shawn's spirit.....you can feel it....

    I can honestly say at some point in my life I've been in nearly every situation he describes. In all my BAD relationships the one thing I found out was that I was the common denominator, so men can't be blamed entirely for the choices I made.....Be Blessed!

  • Thank you! OMG! 3 thumbs up for you! LOL! If only everyone was as humble & opened minded as you! It takes a strong person to admit that the cause of their problems were the choices that they made! It's true of both male and females. I have been guilty of this myself! I must say ... You are very well spoken and eloquent!

  • There is something incredibly sexy about Shawns writing ability. His lyrics are subtle, sweet, sensual, and coated with just enough of an edge to talk you out of your panties (lol)

  • I thoroughly enjoyed Shawns answer in this latest clip. Love & relationships are just one of many topics that always invite real discussion. I dont think there is anything besides jewelry that can tug at a womans heartstrings except love.

  • It's nice....

  • this is one hell of a song please man come out with a album and make this your first solo.

  • Shawn, you are da man! I love responces!! Good stuff my man, keep up the good work.

  • Shawn, you are da man! I love responces!! Good stuff my man, keep up the good work.

  • I Love it and I Love you Mr.SSS. Thumbs Up!!!

  • I Love it and I Love you Mr.SSS. Thumbs Up!!!

  • Beautiful songwriting and singing as always Shawn.... Cant wait for the 2009 Boyz II Men album btw!!! I already have the remedy and Motown Hitsville ...... AMAZING!!!

    from tunisia-

  • Oh my God!!! This song is awesome!!! I Just love it. The words are beautiful and so true. I even love the song from a males point of view well nicely put guys but hey I would expect nothing less then the best from you all.

  • WOW this song is making my eyes misty! Shawn you are oozing with talent.......

    Rock On Chocolate Thunder!

  • Even as a psychologist, I'm still a rare person who understands this idea: Most of what we perceive as unique to each gender is mainly NATURAL, HUMAN emotions. No PERSON (not just a MAN), wants to feel her/his loved one wants to change her/him. It would hurt ANYONE. I also understand that ANY double standard is not fair, including the reduculous idea that a man is not allowed to make the same mistakes as his lady. I go out of my way to treat my husband as I want to be treated. It's called LOVE!

  • you are so correct and im a sociologist.

  • hey, moeluv1277,

    Your comment is much appreciated...esp. coming from someone else in our fields. Don't get me wrong, cause I love to support my fellow strong women out there around the world, but we (women and men) do need to stop pretending that increased testosterone means decreased feelings. Peace!

  • but we (women and men) do need to stop pretending that increased testosterone means decreased feelings

    ^^^this is also so true. we're all human and another thing women and men cant turn off their feelings whenever they feel like it, none of us are ROBOTS.

  • My thoughts exactly!

  • hey iam reading your comments and i agree with them iam not marry yet i hope one i will be marry. but man have pains just like woman do they are but sometime it hard to show woman fear of them say your not a real man. so what a man do hide they from they woman.but the crazy then is woman have proud too.man and women need to respect each other.some man do need to be faith to they woman.that only beef i have with a man some man want they cake and eating too.been faith man and woman work it out.

  • Exactly. In our societies, if a man shows his true fears/feelings, he's not a "real man", and if a woman shows her real strength, she is not considered "feminine enough". Unfortunately, both women and men suffer from these rediculous stereotypes. Admitting deeper feelings can be scary for ANYONE in relationships, because it forces both parties to deal with their own vulnerabilities on a deeper level. So, it becomes easier to just pretend that those feelings (hers AND his) simply don't exist.

  • you are right about your comments so what we need to do about our feeling for each other as man and woman that would make us feel easy to tell each other how we feel about one of other.i say we should pray to god for someone to love

  • Well, as my grandma used to say, you have to teach folks HOW to love. A lot of times what we think is loving the other person can do more harm than good. I think one good place to start is to be more honest with ourselves about our own feelings, then give our partners "permission" (in our own minds) to deal with the same issues that we go through. That tends to help toward removing all the gender specific silliness from the equation and gets us back to dealing with each other as individuals.

  • i have nothing to say to you but that you are right. we need to more what me and you are doing right now is too talk to our mothers grandma about love and life to love each other right that means take time out for our young people males and females and teachs love for one and other teach if early make a chance in our relations.hey you are teachs me i am 25 years old never to old to learn.thanks for writing to me it's been fun

  • It's been a pleasure! And I totally agree with you, these kinds of discussions are definitely needed between women and men, and it's important to pass along the wisdom of the older generations to our young people too. And like you say, none of us are too old to learn something new! Take care.

  • thanks for the good wisdom iam glad that shawn and beyonce write this song so we can these discussions about life and good your friend vb thank for talking to me.

  • No problem. As an artist, musician/producer, psychologist, writer and educator myself, I have these kinds of conversations with people all the time, about many different issues, not just relationship issues, and I find that all kinds of daily events can trigger these discussions. It's not just music, but politics, news reports or any daily event can be good springboards for deeper conversations about all kinds of things that affect our lives. Thanks for talking to me as well.

  • no problem i hope we can do it again some time.

  • BCJEAN wrote beyonce song. beyonce added to the end of the song, but BCJEAN wrote that song, she deserves all the credit.

  • what i mean about my comment is this i didn't know bcjean wrote beyoce version of the song i know shawn worte his version those so iam sorry about that i didn't know i like the dicussions we have

  • i made a few comments and the discussion is awesome but im just letting some people know that beyonce did not write that song. but BCJEAN did and you dont have to be sorry about the comments you made, i was just correcting you on one thing thats all.

  • ok see i didn't know so that cool that you told me who wrote the song

  • yeah it wasnt no disrespect on on my behalf.

  • This is what Im talking about SHawn ... This Dec 9 R&B is back with BRANDY's new CD "HUMAN" in stores everywhere
