    New Jack Swing was Black Culture’s answer to Pop music. Positive, uptempo, with great dances. It’s a shame it died out. I feel like with this current generation of social media/TikTok a modern revival could really take over globally.

      Consequently, Boyz II Men is among the music industry's elite with regard to time spent at number one in Billboard history with 50 cumulative weeks, ranking sixth behind Drake, the Beatles, Rihanna, Elvis Presley and Carey. Furthermore, when "On Bended Knee" took the number one spot away from "I'll Make Love to You", Boyz II Men became only the third artists ever (after the Beatles and Presley) to replace themselves at the top of the Billboard Hot 100.[4] These achievements were enough to earn Boyz II Men recognition as Billboard magazine's biggest boy band during the period of 1987 to 2012.[5] Boyz II Men has received four Grammy Awards.

    I played this song for a dear friend of mine who was from Philly in 2016 at a bar that was dead. I started dancing, he was loving it! Funny thing was there happened to be a wedding in the adjacent banquet room they had. People came out for an intermission, saw we were having more fun than they were, got invited to the wedding party, I started dancing on the dance floor by myself listening to the live band. Next thing you know, I was dragging everyone on the dance floor. Long story short, I got the party started...hahaha! Didn't even know the people! He passed away December of 2019, but I play this song in remembrance of one of the funnest, best times of our lives! RIP Grover, love and miss you dearly!!!

    I might not recall the year this song was released but from the comments I read so far, it's likely this song was released before I was born. I was born 1991 and I am 32 years old now. How time flies though. Great song from BOYZ II MEN. I love them and listen to almost all their songs. Great guys.

      In the UIK Boyz To Men are revered as well as in Australia. In fact a couple of years ago they were on a UK Talk Show where they promoted a CD doing interpretations of other people's Songs, and they serenaded the Co-Host Angela Griffin with their version of "Open Arms' by Journey and the poor woman almost lost it. In fact everytime a Boy Band auditions on the X Factor Shows they almost always talk about how Boyz To Men influenced Them. They also are big fans of American R & B like Harmonizin Homeiz and they've done Cover Version of Philly Soul Songs

    This song reminds me of an old friend of mine. He (and I) were 12 when I first met him. He was weirdly obsessed with Rock Paper Scissors. I wonder what he's doing right now.

    I'm here because of the New Edition story. That part in the movie "One day back in Philly, four guys wanted to sing they came up to me..." Yup so true. Mike Bivins discovered my favorite men group of ALL TIME.

      I agree with that completely. I'm Canadian and up here all genres of music were well represented. It was a great decade for all media and a huge cultural representation.
