What are your favorite TLC songs?

Remember "Red Light Special" -- that song was on BET and MTV 24 hours a day back in '95.

Also, I used to love "What About Your Friends" and "Hat 2 Da Back."

"Baby, Baby, Baby"

So have you ever heard of a group called TLC
With hits like "Ain't 2 Proud 2 Beg" and "Baby-Baby-Baby"
New Years Day of 1992 I was chilling
With the Leaders Of The New
At the Fox Theater venue
Atlanta, Georgia where the girls don't ignore ya
Geronimo had two girls and said this one's for ya
The two were close related, in fact sister kindred
And I was scheming on a way to get her into bed
1992 when I was rhyming for fun
Had the thickest new style...but no demo done
I wasn't feeling down about my past situation
I had only seen TLC on Video Vibrations
Yes this was just before they blew up
While I was gaming on the girl I had a chance to look up
TLC walked in with my man Yusef
Left Eye is the name because she played me to the left
The girl I was with was silly...
But I was trying to get on T-Boz any motherfucking way
But what was I to say...
Hey shit I was a nobody
And nobody had ever heard of Count Bass-D
Or TLC, but my despair turned into glee
When T-Boz pushed up and introduce herself to me
My heart went mushy...I know you don't believe me
But T-Boz of TLC tried to talk to me


-Count Bass D, "T-Boz Tried To Talk To Me" (1995)

Their first album was my shit. I like their others okay, but that first one is something special to me. The singles along with "This Is How It Should Be Done", "Das Da Way We Like 'Em", and "Get It Up" got repeated play when I first had my driver's license.

I am not european. Europe lives in me, but I have no home there.
I am new. History made me. My first language was spanglish.

The best TLC is "Sumthin Wicked This Way Comes". If you haven't heard it, go find it.

'Let's Do It Again' is criminally underrated.

OK, the song "Das Da Way We Like 'Em" has been in my head for the past 2 days because of this thread (I'm playing it right now)...

Das da way we like 'emmmm
Das da way we like 'emmm
Das da way we like 'emmm
Das da way we like 'emmm

YO, ERRI, ERRI, AHHH!!!!
