I was 16 when this came out and I knew It was the shit .!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bad Boy was the shit back then. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBODDDDDDDDDDDD­Y was fucking with Derrick D. Dott back den!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Henryj6969 Miami is not the South Homie. What time zone are u in? There you go

  • bluehox you ain't never lied. I'm from Miami and people think since it's considered to be the south that we don't know classic shit when we here it. I was 16 when this came out and I knew It was the shit .!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bad Boy was the shit back then. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBODDDDDDDDDDDD­Y was fucking with Derrick D. Dott back den!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Give me the reason to love you, cuz I want to love you more...real shit........my favorite cd from back in the day, every song was lovely and special

  • MY FAVORITE!!! LOVE THIS SONG!!! OMG! It never gets old to me.

  • I love this song the only way you could hear this song is if you had the Cd It was bonus track that you could not get w/the cassette lol:=))))

  • I listen to this album everytime I crank up the car...It doesnt have a scratch, and the ONLY R&B album that I can listen to from beginning to end (including Ne-yo, Because of you), But Faith I will ALWAYS be a fan.....Always!

  • Ghetto Elegance....I love it! lol

  • The girl who played faith Evans could be her twin. If they were sisters

  • I bought like three copies of this over the years....all of them broke or scratched lol I found this on LP and that copy outlasted the CD's!!! Simply a classic.

  • use to have this song on repeat, laying on the floor with my head next to the speaker, my mom calling me yet I can't hear her. I was 15 when this album came out!!! Thank God for music :)

  • I absolutely loooove this song!! The music is soooo nice..... this is one of my favorites by Faith!! I'm still a big fan...."Give me the reason to love you and I want to love you more.." Love it!!!!!!!!! :o)

  • This songs reminds me of being in love during the fall and winter; kickin' it with your significant other during the holidays; cuddling up in private or holding hands in public! Or just staring into their eyes during a slow dance. Faith make a brotha wanna turn in his "playa card" and fall in love!

  • @batmansouth YESSIR!

    

  • OMG this song is the best song on this CD but I love every song on this CD. I would have to say that this is her best CD and probably the most underrated CD that she has made. A lot of people were still caught up in Mary J's My Life when this came out and they didn't give it the proper respect it deserved. Both My life and this CD are classics.

  • My absolute FAVORITE SONG ON THIS ALBUM!!!!!!!

  • Im going to see Faith Evans tomarrow night LIVE for the first time... She said Via Twitter that she will be performing this song and other CLASSICS... I cant wait. 

  • I've cut many of women to this CD back day....but beware this CD+sex=making a woman fall in love with you FAST....especially if you put it down. So I really wouldnt advise it unless you are really into her....play something else...like Erykah Badu...but not this

  • @Polacoste

    HELL YEAH YOU NAILED IT!!!!! I CUT A TUN OF CHICKS OFF THIS SONG... ITS THE WAY FATH RIDE THIS TRACK........THE VIBE MAKE PANTIES DROP (EAZY WORK 4 ME) LOL...........THIS IS HER BEST CUT ON THE LOW!!!

  • I miss the 90's. I was only three when this song came out, but my dad used to play it a lot. Today's R&B can't compare to this. R&B is like offically dead in my eyes. I love this song!!!!!!

  • @jadiejade92 3? damn, i was 22. and yes this was my favorite song from the album and i listened to it probably as much as your father did or more when it came out. glad to hear you liked it.

  • @jadiejade92 Yeah same wit my dad..MJB the favorite but she was right there

  • real r&b right here

  • 3:40-end really makes me wanna throw a chair threw a window

  • @realmatic1 when i can seem to find my way, u brighten up my darkest day yeeeessss!!!!!!!!!

  • I have been looking for this song for the longest!!! thanx for posting this!!!

  • her voice is jus so refreshing like an angel when im going thru or feeling lonely this is the album i put in

  • @vwnclubb

    MAN THIS IS THE ZONE(PUT SOME X-MAS LIGHTS UP BLAZE UP AND IT WILL CHANGE YO MIND) LOL

  • They 90's we didnt know what we had musically back then! Love this whole cd!

  • Wooooooooooooooooooo her vocals on this makes me run laps around my apartment. She put her foot in this one. Classic and totally underrated signature Faith song.

  • MY FAVORITE FAITH SONG!!!!!!!!

  • This my ish!!!!!!

Faith sends me through it everytime i hear it.

  • This is one of my favorite songs of all time!!! I love Faith so damn much.....

  • man oh man, been looking for this cut! might be my #1 favorite from this cd. and wasnt it a bonus track? love it.  thanks for posting Mekam, u da best!

  • @DCjrock Yeah, it was the bonus track, which made it imperative to get the CD back then. Beautiful song!

  • CLASSIC FOREVER AND EVER AMEN!

  • This CD NEVER lets me down. Faith has gotten me through every single heartbreak since high school. Female vocalists just can't do it like this anymore! No one sings ballads anymore! WHY?!?!

  • I absolutely love this song from Faith. It always put me in a zone. This one and "heaven only knows" love it!

  • (Part 2) When You Look At It This Album Hit So Hard Because Faith Was Only Known Before Her Debut As A Very Talented Songwriter. As Gifted As She Was Penning Passion On Paper I Don't Think ANY Of Us Knew What She Had Cooking Up In The Kitchen. And While "You Used To Love Me" Was The Debut Single And Then "Ain't Nobody" Following You Could Say That She Could Have Made Singles For At Least 7 Songs From The Album (Remember She Only Did 3 Vids For It). But "Reasons" Should Have Gotten A Release

  • First Off I Want To Give Thanks To Everybody Who Appreciated My Commentary On This. So Nice I Had To Do It Again. When You Look Back At The 1995 Time Of R&B (And The Segue To It From '94) You Had Some Great Talent. Usher, Vybe, Drama, Groove Theory And Such. But Faith's Debut Probaly Epitomized The Essence Of That Era. Her Debut Was The Blueprint (And Hands Down The Best Soul Release Of That Year). It Was Smooth, Sultry, Grown And Sexy (Before The Term Was Coined) And Ripe With Visceral Emotion

  • Comment removed

  • @Bluexhox yea faith's first album was a classic and it is one of my favorite abums of all time they dont make great albums anymore R&B sucks nowadays now artists wanna use autotune and that other crap and this comming from a 16 year old i appreciate good music.

  • @Bribreezy21-There's Hope For The Youth Of Today Yet...lol Keep Appreciating The True Essence Of The Art In Any Genre...:)

  • faith's voice is so flawless. too bad music doesnt sound like anymore =(

  • What can I say? I would say splendid but it doesn't cut it. Nothing can be said and I will leave it at that.

  • I wish Faith knew how much her true fans really love her!

  • THIS SONG.....is my SECOND favorite song of all times forever and ever! Any genra, any style, any type of music comes third and below to THIS song.

    1. This song is the most Elegant song I've ever heard.

    2. It's powerful, it's classy, it's deep!

  • "Give me the reasons to love you, and I want to love you more..." Awesome!!!

  • Comment removed

  • This CD...never left my CD player for 4 years in college....NEVER

  • @apostle4life ....mine either!!

  • @apostle4life damn, like that ?

  • soooooo sweet to my soul.

  • cool pictures!

  • My favorite song on her debut album. Love it!!!!  So smooth!

  • this is the most awesome song ever!

  • Aw Man Dis Shit Is Addictive!! Faith is The Best. NOBODy Fuckin Wit Faye & Mary. Faith Wud Sing These Bitches Under A Bus. Karen Clark Jr Rite There!! ;-)

  • I love this song, now this is what you call real r&b, true classics! Thanks.

  • @TheBackinthedays HELL FUCKIN YEA!! THIS IS ONLY MY 2ND TYM HEARIN THIS SONG BUT IM HOOKED. THIS IF IS OFFICIALLY MY FAVORITE SONG BY FAYE. SHE'S A PURE BEAST. NOBODY FUX WIT HER & MARY. FAIT SOUND SO MUCH LIKE KAREN CLARK SHEARD DAT IT DONT MAKE NO SENSE MAN. BEAST!!

  • i love this song it is a classic!!!!

  • I love this song

  • I'm A Faith Fan To The End And While She's Had A Tremendous Career In Music She's Not Gonna Outdo Her First Album. And I'm Not Bitching Or Trying To Be Critical When I Say That....lol It's Just That Her Debut Was So Immaculately Flawless And Perfect In Every Way Imaginable. It's Hard To Outdo Something That Magnificent...

  • I agree I am a die hard Faith fan Too!I think this song,soon as I get home & come on over are my favs, but you gotta give her credit on that faithfully album she came hard on that!

  • @oohword1 i agree with you as well! those 3 songs are my absolute favorite from faith's debut album.

  • @Bluexhox i compeletly agree. my fav album ever! u can play it all the way through. she needz better producerz and song writerz to take her back to album greatness. 1 of my fav singerz ever! LOVE U FAITH!

  • @Bluexhox I agree. This album was the absolite best of Faith. I wish the songsters of the 90's would please bring this kind of music back.

  • @sangmissrita-I Tell Your Girl There's Just Something About That 90's Era That Was Just So Magically Genuine And Creative About R&B Back Then. You Had The Knowns Like Jodeci, Aaliyah, Total, Faith, Men At Large, Joe, Maxwell, D'angelo And TLC (When They First Started) And Then The Lesser Knowns (But Still Hot Nonetheless) Nuttin' Nyce, Vybe, Blackgirl, TCF Crew, Emage, Drama, Illusion, Joi, Nona Gaye, Wendy Moten, Men Of Vizion And Others

  • @Bluexhox yup, so true, and now music is just kinda ruined... the 90s music was so much better, almost flawless, now music has no meaning anymore... just get up and shake your ass for the camera!!! SMH... what a shame eh?

    =]

  • @Bluexhox very well said...I feel you.

  • @Bluexhox i agree

  • @Bluexhox DAMMIT YOU TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH.......FAITH PLS DO IT AGAIN

  • @Bluexhox second album was ABSOLUTELY better! Caramel Kisses, Never Gonna Let You Go, All Night Long - second album was the flawless one!

  • @batmansouth

    WHAT ABOUT HER BEST SONG (MY FIRST LOVE) THE SONG SHE MADE 4 BIGGIE!!!

  • @batmansouth-I Won't Argue With You About The Illness Of Her Second Album In Any Way...lol While Her Second Album Was Definitely Fire Her First Opus Fully Capured The Astetic Of What The 90's R&B Sound Encapsulated. Definitely One Of The Elite Works Of Any Record That Came Out Circa 1990-95. "Keep The Faith" Was Not A Dissapointment By Any Means But As I Said She She The Bar Damn High With Her Heat She Handed To Us When She Debuted. It's Hard To Top Something That Sensational....

  • @batmansouth i thought that was the 3rd album...

  • @haleyunderrated you thought what was the third album?

  • @batmansouth all nite long and caramel kisses was on keep the faith.... thats the 3rd album after faitfully

  • @haleyunderrated Faithfully is the third album

  • @batmansouth no its not.... its faith, faithfully, keep the faith, somethin about faith.

  • @batmansouth my bad i googled it. u rite

  • @Bluexhox

    I believe you are right. Artist tend to try to 'Grow' and change up a great thing and find new composers....wrong move...we except and need the composers to grow, not the artist to change material completely. She's still my girl, until the end, but i am one of those 'read the booklet' cd collecters...i got over 1500, i know what i'm talking about. It's the holidays...she should give those guys the composed on the first cd a call. LOL

  • @76180dfw , Cool, I'm a "read the booklet" tooo!!!

  • @mchelly28 what booklet ? lol

  • @sdlova -my badd, I think I was trying to respond to someone else. lol

  • @sdlova

    the sleeve of the album that comes with the cd. It tells the lyrics and who wrote each song. back in those days of bad boy there were a hand full of composers and a few writers, those writers were usually faith, big bub, jo jo and k ci hailey and mary and latonya blige. i use to put the my life cd booklet next to the faith booklet and see who wrote what and when. The chords in some of the some of the tracks were similar so i could tell the composer was the same. check it out.

  • @Bluexhox I wanna argue, but the more I go back and listen to her works, the more you are proven right!! KEEP THE FAITH is my personal favorite album from her, but I may have to renege that!

  • @Bluexhox You are so right although i find a great piece in evry last album i always run back to this one because it's just the best

  • @Bluexhox yeah, we know you not bitching or being critical. its just the truth.

  • Camp Lo sampled this for " Diamond Crookz ".

  • THIS is still my Number 2 love song of ALL TIMES....

    1. Jodeci - I'm still waiting

    2. Faith Evens - Reasons

    3. Lupe Fiasco - I'm Beaming

    4. Dru Hill - Beauty Was Her Name (Remix)

    Mind you, I'm 36, I still like new tracks. This song still does it.

    It's an Elegant track. Worthy of a beautiful soundtrack.

  • @navyman4 This My Top 4

    1. Marvin Gaye-"After The Dance"

    2. Aaron Hall And Jewell-"Gonna Give It To Ya"

    3. Tracie Spencer -"Love Me" (Video Version)

    4. Jodeci-"Feenin"

  • surpised u have jodeci on their..I think U & I is much more powerful but i'm still waiting is very good..have you heard Dru hill- share my world? thats gonna be my wedding song lol

  • i love this song,i 4 got all about it,now i gotta  go buy all her stuff again

  • OOPS, I meant SONG of all time.

  • I love this song and is one of my faves from her first album! I hope Faith comes out with more music like this for her new album.
