"Product is the right word - it's useful music; you either place yourself in the role of the singer, or in the role of the person being sung to. And even if that sentiment is a presumptuous one for someone else to adopt, they clearly have a lot of fans who want to hear someone express that sentiment to them."

you could say that about a lot of soul/R&B music.

i'm listening to 'end of the road' for the first time in forever, so good. my older brother owned 'cooliehighharmony' but i was from a more bryan adams generation, so i don't remember the other single names.

the beginning of this thread is sad. Some poster claiming he would have never been laid without Boyz II Men and.... RUFIES. smh.

II is pretty damn classic.

My fav non single from II is probably I Sit Away

all the hate in this thread's initial posts >:(

"over-singing" where? is 2003 around the time when that particular excuse for a critique started infecting people's minds? also lol at thinking the lyrics to "i'll make love to you" are directed at complete strangers

dyl, Saturday, 21 September 2019 21:41 (four years ago) link

they seem to be on tour or something now? would try to make it if not for my shitty w*rk schedule. they did one of those cmt crossroads things recently and they're still quite strong singers

not too hard, not too soft

I saw these guys a couple years back, they were great but it was also remarkable how open they were about doing a tour mainly just to make sure people who couldn't see their vegas residency still got a chance -- like, they talked about it. "we don't usually do this, we're in las vegas 200 nights a year, but we thought we'd get out" -- like, never take a claim like that at face value, has to be more to it than that, but they seemed so...casual. like, we built this thing, and we do exactly this thing. they were backed by a symphony orchestra; the arrangements were conservative, play-the-changes affairs.

I loved it.
