Ah .... them wos the days ...... when black women (or any women) didn't have to rely on computer vocal enhancements or looking like a cheap slut in a chav-w*nk video to sell tunes. Ms.Williams? Vastly underrated, pure emotion and raw vocal power - a lost gem from '89! Excellent.
Took me about a minute and half, but I do remember this. The problem is back when it was out so was Soul II Soul and Sybil and it probably got lumped in with what they were doing at the time. Ms. Williams vocals are killa, though. Nice track.
@319am1 ,,, i was just makeing a point that music these days is pretty much talentless, im sure there are some young people waiting to be discoverd, may be it is the record companys they just promoting rubbish lke x factor, But thats not to say that there arnt any good artist today, just few of them.
I like music such as these. As an emerging R&B artist myself, I'm working hard to bring back the 80's soul music. It should take it's rightful place as one of the top genre.
she is so fabulous..met her at the airport a thousand years ago, and she was so cool and sweet; truly a talent and this fuckn song is the J A M...! Go head Alyson!!
We've lost our way with soul music. Back in the day,we didn't suffer no singing azz twits. They had NO career. If you could SANG,we were there. It used to be the same way with rap. We only stanned for those with REAL lyrical ability and storytelling abilities. Now chicks who strut half nekkid and sound like braying goats get the fans and accolades that singers like Ms. Williams deserves.
@NicolaWriter You took the words right out of my mouth. Couldn't said it better myself. I miss this kind of music. The music out here now is pure crap.
Now thats what I call music , it reminds me of the summer tunes of 1989, unlike this technotronic mong face lady gaga bullshit and keery catonna etc etc.
You have no idea how happy I am to hear this again! This was my JAM back in the day. I was 14 and had my first lil girlfriend, and I actually danced my first slow dance with her at a house party in the hood and that was considered "our" song from that point on! Great memories...damn I'm about to call her and see wassup. LOL
I love this song my god....when i hear it, it reminds me of the summer of 89. @Sairajayne 1, I get the goose bumps also when i hear this song, espically the last 3 minutes of it, "she lets us have it honey" This woman can sing! Ive been looking for this version to download for ever!!! and i cant find it fucken anywhere!! I really dont like the album version, this one is much better. btw..her album Raw is the bomb.
I borrowed a 7" off a girl I was seeing lent it to a friend & never saw it again. Still an all time American fave! Try also...Kci you think your lonely now or Bobby Valentino Slow Down
My God, my God!!! I got tears in my eyes. Classic. Brings back sososo much memories. Thanks 4 posting. This is music, words that SAY something has meaning and weight with a great voice 2 match. Thanks again and God bless.
The Nefertiti hat and the big earrings!!! Man I love the 90"s!!!!!! This used to be one of my favorite songs! This is the kind of music that as a teenager I listened to and it was sexual but in a good way. Can't say too much about the hoochie momma songs they play these days. I love this baseline!!!
I've been trying to remember who sang this song forever! For some reason I was thinking it was on the Deep Cover soundtrack. I could see the album cover but couldn't remember her name. Thanks for posting!
this is the jam..go Alyson..what happened to the smooth hip/hop soul of the llate 80s early 90s? Soul II Soul, SOS band, Loose ends,well sade has a new song and we still got Mary....But I still think this song is on fiyah!!! Sang it Miss Williams!! Classty sexy, soul!!!!!!
The lyrics get down deep into you. She makes it plain. She sings about real feelings - what she wants and what she needs in a very soulful, hypnotic & delicious way.
Music back then was so soothing, the songs would just lift yours spirits and free your mind. The music today is the opposite, it takes me nowhere, it is simply unpleasant noise.
Remember when she came out she always wore crowns. Alyson Williams is definitely a queen, so that was great marketing. Not to mention homegirl sang the wheels off of this joint. She is what you call a POWERHOUSE!!!! This song is indeed a classic!!!!!!!
This is a primeexample of when you've come across someone who can put it down, and noone else can compare....gives me many present & past memories...".You know I tried, but I can't find nobody to do the things that you do...no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no..........."
I loved this record its a real classic i also has this record as a 12 ich single. I think she was signed to def jam when this was recorded. She have a powefull voice!!!
Oh my goodness!, I was in 7th or 8th grade when Alyson sang this song, this song really made a brotha put some umph in it in the bedroom, I lost my virginity to this song was this was girl's favorite song, as well as all the other girls in school! Whew! lol...
I bought the "Just Call My Name" single just for the B side, THIS song!! If you think about it, it was worth it. TWO hit singles for the price of ONE!!! Smoove jam!!!
Question: Was this version a COVER/REMAKE, or was there ANOTHER version by another artist that SAMPLED/REMADE this version? I just remember hearing another version i thought.
same here love it.. my first girlfriend it was me and her song.. and im still well good friends with her today.. love it.. and mash it up.. lol..x good times.
This is one of the smoothest R&B tracks from 1989, produced by Jazzy B of the British super group Soul II Soul, the great melody, the smooth groove, and Alyson Williams' soul laced vocals, high end music, without any doubt!!
Cant believe this track is twenty years old. I was at my best young free and single just wanting to mingle . Now im overweight balding married with two kids . Would i turn back time ? The hell i would
