Yes I always felt like Left Eye from TLC thought about this and learned for the Unpretty video. Or they both learned together because both came out around the same time
Shanice has always been so under rated her vocals are pure and raw. The meaning of this song is pure happiness and celebrating love. So I still rock this in 2022.
This woman was only 27 in this video....27 doesn't have the same maturity, confidence, and self assurance in artists as it did in these days. The ladies in this group had their own lane and vocal style...Tamia, Deborah, and Shanice were always that group for me.
shanice is so underrated because she stayed true to herself the label wanted her to look more sexy more revealing but she said on unsung that she should be sexy for her husband I totally agreed
I love, love, love this song!!!!! My loving and talented sister-in-law, Tamara Savage, wrote this song for this amazing singer. These two women are a force to be reckoned with!
Oh is that right? I used to blast this in my dorm freshman year of college. Britney Spears had just come out but I was all about this. I understand this leaped from #91 to #16 on the Hot 100.
I forgot that Tamara Savage co-wrote this joint! She lyrically contributed to a few other songs that I love; "The First Night" by Monica, "Heartbreak Hotel" by Whitney Houston with Faith Evans & Kelly Price, and "It's All About You (Not About Me)" by Tracie Spencer. Very talented with the pen.
I love you and your husband as a married couple. I know that marriage can be difficult at times, but you guys are showing the world of endurance. May God continue to bless your union 🙏🏼
I’m so glad my siblings had great ears for music. Shanice vocals are still so underrated! The woman can sang!!! I miss hearing bridges in music! Bring it back please for R&B 👏🏾
The first time I saw this video i was an 8th grader who just got suspended for fighting. I was watching Jam Zone on BET just waiting for my parents to come home and beat my ass some more, lol.. The album dropped not long after and I found it for $20.99 at Sunrise Records, it was the only copy. It took a lot of saving my allowance money, but eventually I bought it and still enjoy the album till this day. I was 13 when this came out and i'm in my 30's now good music never expires
$20.99?? I hope that's not in American currency. Sometimes I cringe at how much money I spent in the 1990s for CDs whereas now I can hear it all for free (for now) here.
Been so long since I heard this song and saw the video that I just noticed the sign language which is cool cause many don't do probably cause they might not know how to do it. Good ole days
She was only 25 when her career hit the skids. She was still so young. Unfortunately Motown didn’t know what to do with her and had poor management. By the time she got to Ladace their glory days were behind them. Excellent singer more talent than many. Too bad because vocally this girl was up there with Whitney and Mariah.
Shanice is so underrepresented and underappreciated! She sings like a goddess and were rivaling moves of females in that era. No one has incorporated sign language in a video and belt out a tune this way! She needs her flowers right now. If Ashanti gets a tribute, Shanice deserves a few!
This is my favorite Shanice joint - loved it from first hearing it back on 92.3 The Beat in L.A., and will still automatically run it back when it pops up in my library.
Its the chords, very traditional gospel black church chord progression. Sounds very much like Tupac's "I Ain't Mad Ya". You can just see the choir rocking back and forth to the meter
Shanice is a TRUE singer/artist! Shanice's vocal range is a soprano (which are typically opera singers) BUT with her raw, organic, God given talent, Miss Shanice can reach the range of what's called the "whistle register" or "flute register", meaning, she literally can sing, without cracking, as as high as a whistle or flute!!! It's an amazing talent, because only true singers, like Shanice, can vocally reach a range known as "falsetto" which is a very high register and is amazing in itself to reach, BUT, only a FEW can reach the "whistle range" which includes the talented Shanice and that range is even HIGHER than falsetto!! Today's music is horrible and most vocals are artificially produced, yet the mafia ran record labels care only about mass profit and they will still call their auto tuned so called singers "artists" to fool the masses... But true lovers of REAL, talented, organic, God given gifted SINGING/ARTISTS will ALWAYS know the difference of CRAP music and GREAT music. Shanice is GREAT music!
Kumtekmeon: from the The first time I heard her new single I couldn't stop playing it. Now what she needs to do is put a damn album together and make her fans happy.
Trisha Dishing It's not that Sopranos are Opera singers, but that's a type of voice classified in Opera. Mariah is a Soprano, so is Celine, Patti, etc. Mezzo Sopranos are Whitney, Beyoncé, P!nk etc.
This song gives me chills everytime! Shanice is beautiful and has an amazing voice and can dance! love the old school r&b I used to jam. I had this single and played it nonstop💚💙💜 The 90s were on fire with good music. I miss it so much
This women was sooooooo underrated and passed over. Natural born singer AND she was doing sign language in the whole videos...Tell me WHO HAS EVER DONE THAT...STILL TODAY...I.WILL.WAIT🤫
I was 9 years old loving this song. Not knowing what love meant, lol. I just loved her voice and the production. I still love this song today. One of my all time favorites songs.
Ooooohhh snapppp! The beat is poppin' love it! And I love how Shanice was still hangin' around in the R&B world 12 years strong during this point in her career. See this is why I miss the late 90s/early 2000s so damn much, you never had to worry about people calling you "old", "irrelevant", "played out", etc. Long as you had a strong voice & a hot ass beat to go along with it, you know you were gonna be a hit. I loved the choreo to this too. Man, is this woman so underrated!
When this came out, I had the cassette tape and played that thang till it was in me❣️ I had NO idea that Shanice could dance & sign tho👀👀👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 The ASL solidified many moons later that I'm creatively kin to this true artist. Thank you for all the love and work you put in... Love you Sis❣️🎼🎧🎶
It's called TALENT 👆💖such a beautiful song but the clip reminds me a little bit Toni Braxton "He wasn't man enough for me"😊we need more music like this
This was one of the best music videos ever. The Signing as part of the dance moves. She put some eye candy out there for the ladies instead of exploiting other women….. I LOVE IT. And she looked amazing.
@@LadyFay88 shanice's mother and her aunt were singers at the same time. Some deaf people capture sonic vibrations well . Its the reason why some deaf people that are not mute can actually speak without yelling and you can barely tell. Shanice has her it is the BASL that shanice is using her. It is unique to deaf Black people
Love the sign language they do in the video when they dance, never seen that before until this video...😊 Wish Shanice was still singing... That dude in the video looks just like my friend Carlos...
LOVE 💘 this song great song.shaniece great song shaniece thanks for your music old skool for ever and always I rember when you came out in 87 celebrating 70s and 80s and 90s and 200s
Shanice still has a voice like a song goddess and was a true Nubian Queen Of Her Time that perpetuated the sound of music like no other artist ever did then and even now. She is still a phenomenal woman that has a profound style as a songstress who i will forever admire.

Such a lovely song ❤️ Babe

Meee!!
She has such a tremendous smile!
I love her smile
You'd love this song by her then: ruclips.net/video/QGXxcSdsXJ4/видео.html "I Love Your Smile". 9.27.2020 Sunday 08:22 a.m.
Her smile is definitely up there with Stephanie Mills
@@ideliaminter6048 I see what you did there
An infectious smile and a great voice.
The fact that she incorporated sign language into her choreography always struck me.
Yes I always felt like Left Eye from TLC thought about this and learned for the Unpretty video. Or they both learned together because both came out around the same time
Gurllllll I just learnt that today via your comment
@@nonimbuga499 Awe! I love pointing small things out- I'm hyper-observant LoL
@@BAMOORE94 said that y
Same. Loved it even more because of that
Shanice, Janet Jackson and Jill Scott got the most beautiful smiles
You’re right
Yes, so did Whitney.
Yes, can’t forget about Ms Whitney’s big beautiful smile.

Her smile is everything.. Her voice, everything..

@@ingodwetrust7648Remember when this used to come on BET back in 1999 & early 2000

This classic song still in the Year 2024!!!🔥
The choreography is sick!🔥
🎼🎶🎼🎵🎼🎼🎶🎼🎵🎶🎼
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think Jamal Sims choreography the video
Shanice has always been so under rated her vocals are pure and raw. The meaning of this song is pure happiness and celebrating love. So I still rock this in 2022.
Me too my girl loved this she left me in 2012
First time hearing this song. FIRE 🔥 for real!
let's not act as if this isn't inspired by janet jackson, tho.
This woman was only 27 in this video....27 doesn't have the same maturity, confidence, and self assurance in artists as it did in these days. The ladies in this group had their own lane and vocal style...Tamia, Deborah, and Shanice were always that group for me.
These reasons they had the maturity, confidence and self assurance is because they have talent that’s why
Omg
Beautiful song I Love it
Everybody looked older back then. Im 34 now and she looks my age. When I watch One on One and realized Flex was around early 30s, I was shook.
It was 1999
She was gorgeous. And still is. ❤️
zonie9872 ikr
For real !!
Shanice is stunning. She never got the credit she so richly deserved
Right? Why didn't people make her beauty a thing? Stunning with a mega watt smile that lights up her face.
I agree
So underrated!
+Monise Albright Agree 100%
No doubt. Great song. My favorite by her.
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
+Monise Albright very
Without a doubt
She put her foot in this song!
*Jesus Saves*
Charisma Swagg Yes she did.
I love that Shanice stayed true to her upbringing, while still having the abilty to showcase her authenticity.♥️
shanice is so underrated because she stayed true to herself the label wanted her to look more sexy more revealing but she said on unsung that she should be sexy for her husband I totally agreed
Kechelle Niayecia I call bullshit on that because she kissed another man in this video so her marriage couldn't be all that important to her..
And that’s why she doesn’t have a career
@@leekyvanderwoodsen y'all so mean, but real shit lol
Not sexy , they wanted her to look trashy
And that didn’t make her career go far didnt it lol
Damn Shanice you killed this song. Not only was this song hot the whole album this track was on is fire. This album was slept on big time.
Going to check it out, now in the 2019. Yearning for some good music.
Love this song
Aaron Cooper facts!!!! This entire cd was fire!!!
I loved the sign language in the dance.
Aaron Cooper she is my cousin
I love, love, love this song!!!!! My loving and talented sister-in-law, Tamara Savage, wrote this song for this amazing singer. These two women are a force to be reckoned with!

WOW!
Ain't gonna lie, I had it bad for this woman since I love your smile.
Sounds like Blackstreet Don't leave me. Go Shanice.
Her voice is EVERYTHING and she is gorgeous. And her love interest in this video is one beautiful man.
Jaii Rela yessss! She still has a powerful voice
The memories this song brings back....man,life was good!
Phindile, listen to it once more
Still my joint after all these years #Classic #Timeless 🙌 🙌
my heart can resiiiiiist, its all about the way ....
I love you and your husband as a married couple. I know that marriage can be difficult at times, but you guys are showing the world of endurance. May God continue to bless your union 🙏🏼
I’m so glad my siblings had great ears for music. Shanice vocals are still so underrated! The woman can sang!!! I miss hearing bridges in music! Bring it back please for R&B 👏🏾
My favorite part is the bridge. I don't know what the singing style is there but it gives me chills.
i have always loved this song
First woman to do an intricate dance routine blindfolded live successfully. Go ahead Shanice, she never got enough credit she deserved.
I love this song! She will forever hold a special place my heart.
Where were you in 1999??
This song should have gotten more reviews. A bomb song like this? 90's music needs more credit.
MsLaTrell Vaughn yes I love this song.
She refused to wear skimpy outfits, so her record company didn’t try very hard to promote her music.
Her smile is beautiful and her voice... FLAWLESS
She always seems so positive and happy!!
@@Carolina_girl86That's how u gotta be in this crazy world
Baby sign language, dancing & singing 😩☝🏽YESS!!👏🏽come back Shanice?!! 😢❤
One of the best songs ever!❤️❤️❤️

hahaha, I can't!
Absolutely right about knowing great, authentic music never dies.
Oh the memories. Same as you, I was 13.
How many noticed she and the other dancers doing sign language around the :40 mark?
I said the same thing. I don't think ever paid that any attention when I was younger.
I neeeever noticed that. #dope
I did, but then again I had nothing to do after homework but watch videos back then 🤷🏽♀️
Been so long since I heard this song and saw the video that I just noticed the sign language which is cool cause many don't do probably cause they might not know how to do it. Good ole days
I just realized it today July 28 2020
She’s one of the female artist that are under rated
Khanyi , this joint is perfect for setting up Lobola negotiations.
Such a beautiful song. You could hear the soulfulness in her voice. This song should have done damage on the charts back in '99.💓
1999 was such a beautiful time. I miss those days
Sounds better now,then back then.UNSUNG should be great.
I TOTALLY LOVE SHANICE THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES

Everything about Shanice is sublime! 😍😍😍😍
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾💯💯💯
I have always been a Shanice Fan. I had this CD( yes CD) back in college days. It was in my rotation
Though at the age of 9 in '99 I could never comprehend the lyrical message, but I loved the song - masterpiece
same here
Her unsung brought me here. & I thought it was so cool this is on sign language.
Phenomenal. At the risk of sounding corny, when it comes to RnB?! They DON'T make them like this anymore...!
Khulekani Magubane amen
You don't sound corny you speaking the truth and I appreciate your honesty
They do , it’s me just wait and see I’m on my way I promise!💯
Avery Wilson? Jazmine Sullivan? Tamar Braxton (quite similar to Shanice)? Keke Wyatt?
Ooooohhh snapppp! The beat is poppin' love it! And I love how Shanice was still hangin' around in the R&B world 12 years strong during this point in her career. See this is why I miss the late 90s/early 2000s so damn much, you never had to worry about people calling you "old", "irrelevant", "played out", etc. Long as you had a strong voice & a hot ass beat to go along with it, you know you were gonna be a hit. I loved the choreo to this too. Man, is this woman so underrated!
I remember recording this video on VHS! I was so in love with the guy in the video and her voice is so amazing!
will lemay
That man is fine 😍
I urge all of you to listen to her song Take Care Of You, One of my all time favorites and the video is even better since her hubby is in it!
l love Shanice! Beautiful smile and spirit.
Ms Ty yes she has a beautiful smile
I still love her smile
When this came out, I had the cassette tape and played that thang till it was in me❣️
