Strollin' vs. Courtin' Time

Emancipation88 reckons "Courtin' Time" is better. I say "Strollin'" is a much more loveable tune. What do you think?

Strollin' has always been a personal favorite of mine...but I have to say that for me, Courtin' Time would take the lead IF ONLY it had "real" production, like Strollin'.

I LOOOOVE Courtin' Time...but I'd love to hear the non-Casio version.

Strolling without a shadow of a doubt. Never liked courtin time, never will. Strolling is brilliant. Catchy, great vocal, and the live version he was performing in 2002 was excellent. Cant believe he's not been playing that one live.

"strollin" is far better!


Levi's guitar is exellent on this track!


Watch the small video clip u get on the "diamonds and pearls" vhs compilation, and look who the waitress' boss is! I swear that is the ginger one form "sex in the city"! Anyone else notice this?

Plus y is the video faded out 4.....it seemed like a fun little video with a Leiv solo in it.....great carefree stuff!

Courtin' Time has awful instrumentation. Sounds very similar to a song on the demo disk I received with the Yamaha PSR-130 I got for my 12th birthday.

I like them both, but Strollin' has a classier, more relaxed production.

And I really do like them both, I know Courtin' Time gets a lot of stick! razz

Your way off about D*angelo. He re-made the song "Crusing" over from Smokey Robinson's version.
Anyway, STROLLIN is much better. thumbs up!
