This is the reason I go back to the classics... the "old school" if you will. That was back in the days of REAL music, with REAL singing, and REAL instruments being played in the background. No Autotune, No Dubstep. Just you, your talents and the mic. That's all you needed!
Whenever I hear this song I am instantly taken back to the Fall of 1988 and I was serving in the Navy, stationed in Pensacola, FL. The days when you could turn on the radio and hear nothing but great music like this. Todays music is total garbage. Now I listen to XM radio, Heart and Soul channel. I absolutely love this song. It does something to me. In my opinion, New Edition's all time best song they have ever recorded.
+Leungo Rakola i just watched that movie again with my fiance!! lol its wierd saying fiance,, its juvenile insecurity but this type of music makes you feel confident about having a fiance and love as a man...music can really affect a generation,, i hope rnb like this makes a come back... oh and btw the movie made me really love this song..
I'm fourteen too, and I'm in love with oldschool music. I may be a LATE 90's baby but I love both 80's and 90's music. The best generations of music and talent.
This song reminds me of when I first got CLEAN. I would ride my bike late at nite and listen to it over and over. That was 3yrs ago. THE MAGIC IS IN THE MUSIC!
You know I think these late 80's 90's tracks made men. compassionate. To some women that really needed real men. I have a wife thats my best friend. No matter what.
you're so right. I'm not just saying this cause I'm older cause I'm only 34. but even music my parents age had a message and was about love. This shit now is about nothing. No respect no love no romance, and most of them have no talent. it's sad that our kids can't look back at music like we can. think about it, we still play music from our parents Era and kids are playing R Kelly and stuff like that but what are their kids going to play? the music sucks now!
This song is probably one on the best R&B songs ever...timeless...it takes strength in a relationship..that's what they talkin about now it's time for everybody readin this to ask themselves Can I Stand The Rain
Im 15 & I Listen To More Old School Music, Rather Than The Auto Tuned, Dysfunctional, Senseless Bullshit Of Ear Cancer, That Is Nowadays, Confused As "Music".
Brilliant !! I'me 45 and grew up on this stuff, your description is spot on' you would have loved the 70s & 80s, great to see the kids can appreciate proper music still today! Have a listen to some of the stuff on my channel, some of the best tracks , in my opinion, ever made, ear candy as opposed to ear cancer ! Educate your mates! Plenty of artists still making this stuff, you just gotta know where to find it!
Johnny sung this damn song in the GROUND..... His runs were nothing other than phenomenal not to mention how on point his breath control was... When he carried that note pass 20 secs.. #Ugh! Bra they just don't make rnb music as SeXi like this song anymore....
Never will we get anything that sound like these old groups again. So glad I was there to relate. Sad I remember when most of these groups were just kids!
28 people thumbs down... Must have been distracted by Lil Wayne or Ke$ha or whatever the main stream artists are today who claim they make music... As for the the rest of us, THIS IS REAL MUSIC... Wrote, performed, engineered and sang from the HEART... Man! These guys made a hit with this song. Still playing it faithfully in 2014.
I was born and raised to this kind of music. It's the only kind of music I listen to, today's music can never be compared to this kind. I'm 20 years old and this type of music makes me so happy to listen to 😍 it's so relaxing.
Being 41 I can say that I am sooooo happy to have lived this type of music and not the Crap that the generation has to deal with. Can it be any more bubble gum? I just have to look at music like this and many more to see comments from younger people 13 to 20+ and to see how they wished they could have slow danced with their sweet heart on the dance floor
Yes, you found a recent comment. Because people who have elite taste still exist. We are dwindling down though. Please never let these songs die.🙏 Class act!💯
I'd like to take a walk on the beach while the sun is rising listening to this or listening to this on a rainy afternoon watching the rain fall down .. perfect.. I'm a sucker for the beauty in mother nature as long as it's not deadly weather lol
This gets right to the heart of it ... can you stand the rain??? If the answer is yes, it is a true testament to your stick-to-ativeness in love and life!!! Can you dig it?
So glad to hear that they will finnaly be getting the due that they deserve in getting the lifetime acheivement award at the Soul Train Awards! Its about time somebody recognized them for the contributions that they have brought to the game and for the amazing talent they have! NE FOR LIFE!
When I go back to the 90's, which is often....this is one of the first classics I play. End result: it gets put on repeat until I realize, I need to stand tall in the rain...
If only the world had songs like this today... relationships would last longer and cheating wouldn't be a "thing" everyone jumps to after arguing. I love me some R&B oldies
Beautiful song! This song means a lot. Too many relationships breaking apart. hard to find the one who can stand by u in good and bad times!!! Sing it RT!!!
like an elder told me. it ain't old music it's good music
that's real
👏👏👏👏 that elder is awesome
hell yes.
you shit
You are very right my man
Thank you my fellow brother

I really enjoyed listening to music that have a message that you can understand unlike some of the music today.
Every thing still remain tha same just people shit get rewrote a hour come people will reconcile
you're so right. I'm not just saying this cause I'm older cause I'm only 34. but even music my parents age had a message and was about love. This shit now is about nothing. No respect no love no romance, and most of them have no talent. it's sad that our kids can't look back at music like we can. think about it, we still play music from our parents Era and kids are playing R Kelly and stuff like that but what are their kids going to play? the music sucks now!

Lorenze Massey Rs my mom stay playing this type music in the house

This song is probably one on the best R&B songs ever...timeless...it takes strength in a relationship..that's what they talkin about now it's time for everybody readin this to ask themselves Can I Stand The Rain
I'm glad I grew up in the 90s this generation is sucks now😒
After seeing the movie "Best Man Holiday" i cannot stop listening to this song. It puts a smile on my face every time. Good times from the past.
I think I'll forever love this song

No pressure, no pressure... from me baby! Whoooooa!
Foxxi B lyrics written by ricky bell and Ralph tresvant
Foxxi B yeah yeah
The written word of man cannot express the greatness of this song!
Real music by real musicians and vocalists. Miss this kind of harmonizing.
Cause I need somebody who will stand by me... Through the good times and bad times, she will always, always be right there.
Please tell me what is there to thumbs down with this song. Good lyrics, harmony, vibe... I'm baffled! Where are the flaws?!
idk I'm just as shocked as u
Ayame Kyoto There are people out there who have no taste in real music.
This song brings me back to my college days chillin with my then girlfriend now wife!! Damn!!! I miss those days!! GREAT Song
Never will we get anything that sound like these old groups again. So glad I was there to relate. Sad I remember when most of these groups were just kids!

HO LEE CHIT you are really taking me back. Real time, real tunes , real memories :))

Being 41 I can say that I am sooooo happy to have lived this type of music and not the Crap that the generation has to deal with. Can it be any more bubble gum?

Best Man Holiday brought me to this song XD
What God has joined together, let no man try to seperate. Love.
one of the best Rn'B songs
I am 13 and i just love 80's and 90's r&b. I have my parents to thank for showing me this wonderful music. Today's music just isn't the same.😧😧😧
Refreshing to see a young one like you, kid. :)
So in love with this song
I love this group! It was a very tough time in my life. I really loved to hear New Edition. Beautiful voices.
one of the best r&b songs of all time to be honest
