Subject: Boyz II Men song poll

Written By: eightiesfan on 11/01/04 at 1:39 pm

I pick "Motownphilly" because I think it's a really cool hip-hop song; I also like "It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday" which was written for their manager who was killed in 1992.

I picked On Bended Knee. I love them. As a philly native, I'm so proud of them. However, "It's So Hard To Say Goodbye" is a cover, not an original song by them. It was on the Cooley High soundtrack from the same 1970's movie. It was dedicated to their murdered manager. I also liked "Little Things" from their first album.

Did Boyz II Men have a song w/ that name? That ain't one I've ever heard of. But I do know that KWS had a song with that title in '92; it was very repetitive.

Yes, it's on their first album "CooleyHighHarmony". It's a slow song about an impending break-up.

Thanks, Tanya.  ;)

"Please Don't Go" was the first song I ever heard by them (it was early, 1992). Actually I never knew who did that song until about 2 years later and was surprised to find out it was B2M. It's still the only song by them I like...

"Water Runs Dry". I remember when it originally came out. It was a good '90s song. I heard it on the radio a couple of times last week.

What the heck, they now have two songs I like.  ;)

"Water Runs Dry".  "On Bended Knee" is a close second.

"I'll Make Love To You"

I picked "End of the Road", I also like Motown Philly.  I saw them in concert in 95' (mabey 96'?)
and they were really good. Very harmonious :)

Written By: alyceclover on 10/20/05 at 7:02 am

that's tough...can eliminate In The Still of the Night, don't remember them doing it; growing up 'Philly' (AM radio station), and like ex-Pres Clinton said, "motown soundtrack of my life",  of course, that song was meaningful to me, & happy memories, forgotten.  8) of Dennis, return (dancing, laughing, talkin' 'bout music), saying Goodbye...is ok, but brings up sad memories when Dennis & Dawn came to the End of The Road of their 8 year relationship  :(; I'll Make Love To You On Bended Knee are "I wish" I had a guy so in love like that  :) Sweet forever reminder of Willie whose wife died, but was listening to it B-4 meeting him, it's got a really good 'word to the wise' message in there...on the poll I choose "End of the Road" because I like the music, and the way it's done, so that the emotional pain is loud & clear....

I'm not too big of a fan of Boyz II Men, but "I'll Make Love to You" is a pretty good song because it came out in a good time in my life.

How is "Motownphilly" not on here? That song was on an episode of Full House where Stephanie danced to it; and it was even heard in Disney World's CircleVision film! (Forgot which part, but I think it was when they went to the present day.) It also makes me think of Sonic the Hedgehog, both because it and the first game came out in 91 and my neighbor Liz would listen to it while playing it.

It was the first poll option, but the board somehow screwed up all these old polls. As you can see "I'll Make Love To You" is now listed twice.

That's the song that I was going to vote for. I voted for "End of the Road" instead.

I also like "Let's Make Love to You" and "On Bended Knee"
