    I will always love Boys II Men. They have been with me as a young girl, a growing young lady trying to figure out life and then a young woman who thought she knew and learned it all and now a strong woman that knows no matter how old you get your heart wants to learn something else....so these songs are food to the soul and healing for the heart!! Thank you Boys II Men!!!!!

    Wanya:
    No one likes living alone
    I’ve tried to phone you, see you never at home
    And I don’t know if this
    is your way of getting back at me
    But I swear I’ve done right by you,
    I’ve done everything you’ve ask me to
    All of your life
    Now I have nothing
    Gave you everything
    It’s been so hard to live with the pain you put me thru
    I tried to figure out was right for you,
    god only knows if I still be around
    Nate:
    Trying figure out what went wrong
    Thought I could bare it, but the pains to strong
    I keep telling myself, ain’t going to cry no more
    But it’s too damn hard for me
    Every part of your my heart adores
    Cuz you’re everything I need and more
    All of my
    Now I have nothing
    Gave you everything
    It’s been so hard to live with the pain you put me thru
    I tried to figure out was right for you,
    god only knows if I still be around
    Now I have nothing
    Gave you everything
    It’s been so hard to live with the pain you put me thru
    So when you figure out was right for you,
    god only knows if I still be around
    Say babe, my darling
    Done everything I could
    Now that give is on my now (!?)
    I can’t get thru to you
    So what else is there to do
    I gave you everything
    Now I have nothing
    Gave you everything
    It been so hard to live with the pain you put me thru
    But I swear I’ve done right by you,
    And I done everything you ask med to
    All of your life
    Now I have nothing
    Gave you everything

    Altered pitch and unmastered (unless it's just the recording) and the song STILL sounds incredible. I would say from the pace and style of the song this definitely was an unreleased song from II or Evolution, I can't seem to convince myself of one over the other.

  • @jeanelderbordes
    @jeanelderbordes 7 лет назад +3

    I want to hear the real version of this song since this one has been modified. The pitch was changed. Nathan and Wanya sound different. At the end, Wanya sounded like Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, or even like a cartoon. Only a real Boyz ll Men fan can understand what I'm trying to say. I have listened from Cooley High Harmony to Collide. I know their timbers. By the way, Wanya still hits higher notes than those (in real life).

  • @ajscorp87able

      Now I have nothing
      Gave you everything
      It’s been so hard to live with the pain you put me thru
      So when you figure out was right for you,
      god only knows if I still be around

      Say babe, my darling
      Done everything I could
      Now that give is on my now (!?)
      I can’t get thru to you
      So what else is there to do
      I gave you everything

      Now I have nothing
      Gave you everything
      It been so hard to live with the pain you put me thru
      But I swear I’ve done right by you,
      And I done everything you ask med to
      All of your life

      Now I have nothing
      Gave you everything
      It’s been so hard to live with the pain you put me thru
      So when you figure out was right for you,

    This is definitely BIIM but I wouldn’t be surprised if this recording was manipulated to be in a higher key. The skill of the actual runs is post-Cooley High Harmony, but their voices are waaaay to high for that time period. I’m guessing the recording is manipulated. They sound like they are 14 years old.

      I want to hear the real version of this song since this one has been modified. The pitch was changed. Nathan and Wanya sound different. At the end, Wanya sounded like Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, or even like a cartoon. Only a real Boyz ll Men fan can understand what I'm trying to say. I have listened from Cooley High Harmony to Collide. I know their timbers. By the way, Wanya still hits higher notes than those (in real life).
