More on "TGRES" Neptune remix airplay

Seattle's Kube93 finally played Neptunes remix at midnight on their new
music show "The Joint" on Monday night/Tuesday morning. The DJ (Bobby O)
had great things to say about the remix and the song. He played some
listeners' comments and ALL were positive.



The remix is very different from the Adam & Eve remix. There's more of the
album version in it (including verses, bridge and chorus), but the beat is
faster and more hip-hop. Q-Tip also sounds very different than I've ever
heard him. There are also additional lyrics in the song (that are not in
the album version or the Adam & Eve mix).



Kube93 should be playing it some more later in the week. You can request
it at (206) 421-9393

Well, after a few minutes (more like 20 of fast forwarding
and rewinding the segment), I finally got the words to the
remix transcribed. There are two rappers -- Q-Tip and someone
else. That someone else (NOT Tony M!) is in the paratheses.
Enjoy. Please no flames or anything. I think I got all of the
words to the joint, but hey, it was G2 streaming realaudio. ...

Neptune's Remix

The Greatest Romance That's Ever Been Sold
Yah-whooo!
So what do u know, u and me finally face 2 face
Checkin' each other up and down
(up and down baby!)
In all the obvious places

Q-TIP: .....
All the places in the world we live
they can't hold a candle 2 the light u give (4 real 4 real)
Eye have an outlook that's truely uncommon
if u follow me u are more than an honored man
the reason why our place is still the earth's space
Is spinnin' rhymes getting mine watching your waist -- hourglass
here u give me hotflash
this romance givin' heat
of a sonic blast
Q-TIP: .....

So this is where u end and u & eye begin
The Greatest Roamnce That's Ever Been Sold
(Eye ain't no thug 2nite eye'm gonna stay home & make love 2nite)
The Greatest Romance That's Ever Been Sold
(Eye ain't tryin 2 beg maybe this song will help me change, come on)
Now ur mind is open (my mind is open)
2 poetry that's seldom heard (seldom heard)
Ur heart has never been broken
Until u've heard these words

Q-TIP: .....
Give it up like the air
that thang u don't smell
u better answer all of that love
inside of your heart right now
Shorty, look if is u king of it all
we can really make it work
when i'm acessing the ball (4 real 4 real)
give a wiggle that your hands
I'll come 4 it's heartless
Hold my hand he's just frontin'
It's time now let's dance eternally
they're lookin at us, laughing
but I love it is what's concerning me
Q-TIP: .....

So this is where u end and u an eye begin
(it's the greatest baby, come on)
The Greatest Romance That's Ever Been Sold(Eye ain't no thug 2nite eye'm gonna stay home & make love 2nite)
The Greatest Romance That's Ever Been Sold
(Eye ain't tryin 2 beg maybe this song will help me change, come on)
Let me holla at ya! (holla! holla!)
Eye know u can feel me eye know u can dance
But do u know about the greatest romance?
(It's romance baby)
It's not what u think, but what u believe
Can u tell me the reason Adam never left Eve?
Can I tell what u do 2 me?
