I never liked 'All Fall Down'.


eek that's just devil's talk right there!! no no no!


'The Slightest Touch' was always my favourite, and even moreso when that manky Louise Nurding/Redknapp covered and butchered it a few years ago.


nod
i like Louise redface so when i heard she was doing this song, i was hoping it would ...well... at least be good. confused

People slag off 'You Rock My World' and 'Another Weekend' but I think they're excellent.
dancing jig love it!!! "Let Me Be Yours" from the same album i've always felt was "Let Me Be The One" part 2 mushy

Yeah. New Edition was awful. I don't know why people ignore the actual sounds an artist produces because everybody else says they're good.

The only songs I've heard by them were "All Fall Down", "Hide And Seek",and "Let Me Be The One". BET had those videos in heavy rotation back in the day. I remember hearing a story about Eddie Murphy having a crush on one of the girls, But her Daddy wasn't having it.


Yeah, the Eddie Murphy connection was already posted earlier. New Edition also recorded "Hide And Seek". Who did the song originally?
My guess would be that 5-Star's version of the song was the original. They released theirs as a single and had a video for the song. New Edition did not. Although that could be because NE had the stronger album with better material on it. I agree with the person who said that 5-Star looks like the Cosby Kids lol That one dude looks like Theo's friend Cockroach, when he had the jheri curl.

The Revlon is workin' for the ladies but Stedman might want to get some new mirrors.

Maybe it's a British-Brother thing. shrug

U a maurice starr hater arn't u lol

Just listening to five star now, very, very dated, but happy pop music. Not bad.


I'm sorry but New Edition's music holds up better than Five Star's. As cheezy as you may think they were, their music has aged better than 5 Stars. In fact, mad artists are still influenced by their music. Have you heard that new Bow Wow/Ciara track? How many artists today are influenced by 5 Star on the other hand? Plus, New Edition are still popular today and moving forward with their music. Meanwhile, 5 Star is still around, but they're considered a nostalgia act.


I'm such a fucking snob aren't I? lol

LOL, I can't believe this thread has gotten this friggin' long. WHY NOW? Five Star gets discussed once a month on this board? lol Anyway, let me share my twocents

1. Stedman looks like what he always looked like...a European beeyatch

2. New Edition was definitely funkier, but their singing SUCKS! 5 Stars vocals are way better, even though their British pop production is dated, as already mentioned.

3. drool DORIS!! drool

4. LMAO @ NE "moving forward with their music". Yeah, they've moved themselves right out of work.

5. NE, 5 Star, and Full Force should go on tour together. woot!

6. Deniece's voice is awesome, and on threads in the past I've likened her to MJ, Stephanie Mills, and Jody Watley, but completely still her own. Ralph Tresvant, on the other hand, has been straining since NE's second album. Let it go, Ralph. Just let it go.

7. drool DORIS!! drool
