80s R&B Slow Jam of the day: "You Me & He" by Mtume (1984) "You Me & He" by Mtume
(written by James Mtume) There's something I wanna say Try and understand There's another in my life He's my lover and I'm your wife (chorus) You,Me and He what we gonna do baby? You,Me and He what we gonna do baby? I was too blind,blind to see I never thought,never thought it could happen to me Then I knew (yeah) things had changed Cause when we made love You called out his name So much tension cause we're living a lie,by and by whoa oh oh...not to mention can we give it a try? The truth's so,so very hard to say (ooh baby) This pain I feel grows each day can we find a way? So much tension cause we're living a lie,by and by Whoa oh oh...not to mention can we give it a try? You,Me and He what we gonna do baby You,Me and He what we gonna do baby I don't wanna let you go No,no,no,no, You,Me and He what we gonna do baby You,Me and He what we gonna do baby | |

Mtume, or "tumes" as he's known at WRKS - KISS FM here in Jersey, does/did the Sunday morning radio show where they talk about the issues concerning the community. Haven't listened to them in a while - the discussions would get pretty heated at times.
I love the stuff he was involved in with Stephanie Mills. My author page: https://www.amazon.com/au...eretttruth | |

Breathless used to be my cut along with the other jams by Mtume that the other orgers have mentioned. For some strange reason, it seemed liked Juicy Fruit, Breathless, and C.O.D. had some P instrumentation going on with it. | |

I also loved "[b]Tie Me Up[b]".
My only beef with Mtume is they DON'T have a compilation yet. | |
