Ginuwine - Last Chance Video

check out this hot video from my boy Ginuwine - Last Chance. features cameos by Tyrese and Lisa Raye. A Man's Thoughts drops sometime in the third quarter. supposedly features a duet with brandy.

The vocals are on point as always with Ginuwine. The video was a bit confusing and cliché. Its a tired trend for them to have the typical "tragedy" in the video after the man and woman argue. Dude's a good vocalist and entertainer but he needs to adopt some new ideas - and drop more up-tempo cuts!
Fast songs are the best way to get attention. He's stuck in R&B singer hell dropping ballad after ballad. More creativity and less cliché.

Redundant. There's nothing wrong with being a balladeer as long as you're not stuck in adolescence/early twenties anguish.

pfftttt says who? you're obviously retarded with your sentiments. Laaaaame. This has been the subject for all eternity and is not immune to just one age group. no relationship is immune from the ups and downs...if it ever was we'd be less stressed and retain our hair...it always has the classic cycles....fights ensue for no reason, communication breakdown, imposition of double standards, expectations, having the cake and eating it too, begging, wanting out because you don't want to deal with the bullshit, second chances, being emotionally invested in the relationship and seeing a lot of good qualities in your partner which is making you stay in the relationship and giving it that extra effort...we all say we hate drama but really...there's no magic bullet to the question of love and stability... it comes with the territory and experience of working through all your problems, resolving your fights and never letting it linger for more than it should have...its been the subject for decades. get out of here with your nothingness. this is something readily identifiable and relatable with the common individual because its speaks the truth. if you want something bad enough, you gotta work at it. you gotta hurt for it. and the track definitely has repeat value.

So... you don't agree huh? lol

Viciuzurban your thoughts are on point... eloquent even. My problem with this/his song, honey we've heard this shit before. By all means sing about the very things you spoke of just don't repeat yourself. Don't sound like you marketing your song for the radio populous of little girls/boys and young women. Ginuwine has been around long enough to have some life experiences under his belt; I would've liked to have heard mature lyrics, depth, and not the same tired maranding beat/music track. You like "Last Chance", I didn't.

obviously someone is not familiar with dudes catalogue...differences, open arms, superhuman, stingy? G was part of that whole jodeci-esque mantra scene in the 90s that typified conscious rnb, not the shit that is clogging the radio these days. his music has always been above average, sophisticated and mature lyrically and yet he is still underrated. this track is a continuation of his efforts. you obviously didnt listen to the lyrics if your only criticism is the so-called "maranding" beat.

Girl the things I said/I can’t believe it/but i swear to God i didn’t mean it....I do whatever to save my home....don’t want to fuss and fight no more/don’t give a damn about the score/cos i, im a different kind of man/im the kind that understands/what i got inside my hands

Sometimes I try to front/ like it don’t matter/If you leave or stay/like i can find better/but truth be told/that you’re the one/girl its plain to see/that I aint nothing about cha/and its seems like ‘very song on the radio is about cha/girl, so stay on home/where you belong/so i can try to make some right out of this wrong

i highly doubt G made this track for little girls and little boys - i doubt they grasp the full concept of the track - this is on some grown man shit - that as women and men, not little girls or little boys, we are makers of our own destiny and that in the heat of battle, after all is said and done, it is up to us to make things right. relationships are very easy to get into, but hard to maintain - most times, we let our ego, friends or petty grievances or habits get in the way - but ultimately real men and real women knows what they have and are willing to work out the minor details, little girls and little boys have a fragmented illusory conception of what love is and what it takes to stay together . the track solidifies that staying faithful and committed (married) to one is principled , rather than walking away and fucking other people, as easy as it is, or on some other little boy bullshit.

Yeah, I'm very familiar with Ginuwine music..... That's why I'm underwhelmed by that particular song. OK. I've stepped on a toe, toes, and-or nerves. Your a fan of his music an admire of his talent and his lyrics/music speaks to you in a way they don't for me, I can and do respect that. You put "Last Chance" up, I told what I thought. I respect the differences and the opinions of others... to agree to disagree. That's the one thing you forgot to enlighten me on your lecture about relationships or what Ginuwine is saying through his music. Go ahead, I'm given you last word. After 21 years of marriage.... I've learned it ain't even important to have or get the last word in.

lol

eek Wow, that was bland. He should go back to the uptempo sound (Pony remix, What's so different, hell yeah.....) and leave the middle of the road sappy ballads to the other R&B scrubs (Avant?). Somewhere Timbaland is laughing.

Hahahaaa. Deflection is extremely telling. Why do you resort to armed insurrection and parroting when i attempt to flesh out your agenda and answer out your claims? You sure do have a habit for over-generalising. for someone who believes in redundnacy and proclaims for maturity (how does that work?) from a balladeer, it is evident that you still don’t know what you’re talking about. don't deflect, don't pass the buck or overlook the obvious. for someone who attests to having been married for 21 years and learning about compromise and anguish, you appear to be proud of being ignorant.

He has already reunited with timbo on the new album. The second track is supposedly a collaboration with him and missy.
